Amazing Catamaran Experience in Santorini! - Our family of 6 adults recently did a private catamaran sailing with Takis and Maria and enjoyed every minute of it. The sailing included transportation from our airbnb directly to the dock, there was little we had to think about or coordinate. Once we arrived at the dock we were greeted by our host, Maria, who was the kindest person we met on our vacation. Maria immediately treated us all as her own family, making sure we had everything we needed and preparing delicious homemade snacks, lunch and dessert. The captain, Takis, was also fantastic. He allowed us to decide between a few different options of where to go and when, but provided really great recommendations to help us avoid some of the crowds at each location. We were able to swim at two different locations without many crowds. Takis shared details about various things we were sailing by and helped us connect our phones to the boat to play our own music. The boat itself was exceptionally clean and well cared for. It was incredibly spacious for 6 people, having room for all of us to be in the shaded area or in the sunny area. We were provided with towels and plenty of drinks including soft drinks, water, wine, and beer. The lunch provided on board was a mix of traditional greek foods and tasted amazing. We were worried about the possibility of getting seasick, but the sailing itself was very smooth. The amazing views, hospitality, and meals made the cost of the private sailing worth every penny. Our only regret was not booking a longer sailing.

Look no further! - Beat Private cruise I’ve ever been on! Takis and Maria gave us a wonder experience all together. Great steering by Takis as the captain. He gave us tons of historical information on the sights we visted. Maria served us the best Greek food we’ve had in Greece. They are amazing. Just book and enjoy

The highlight of our Greece trip! - Absolutely the highlight of our trip to Greece! This was a fantastic day going around the Caldera, swimming in the sea, and eating amazing food. The crew went above and beyond with everything, and were an absolute delight. If you’re looking for a perfect private catamaran experience I can’t recommend this one enough. We loved the bits of history explained to us as we roamed around the sea, and the food was some of the best food we’ve had on the entire trip - completely homemade Greek lunch that was soooo delicious. They even helped arrange a very delightful cake plus some Prosecco to celebrate my friends birthdays. Seriously, if you’re in Santorini book this for the day. Transportation, crew, food, giant catamaran - everything was top notch.
