Loooooved every minute of this tour! - WE HAD SOOOOOO MUCH FUN WITH THIS TOUR COMPANY (EXTREME DIVERS) THAT THIS WAS OUR SECOND TOUR WITH THEM!!! This time our guide was Vanai and our skipper was again George! This time the weather cooperated and we had an even more amazing experience because the snorkeling was even better! We are avid snorkelers. It was so nice to have a private tour, as the itinerary was entirely up to how we wanted to spend the day. We went to the coast of Aegina and got to snorkel a shipwreck and see so many colorful fish! Vanai was an extremely talented photographer taking photos for us with her go pro and on my iPhone! IT REALLY WAS JUST THE MOST PERFECT DAY ON THE WATER IN GREECE!

Extreme Divers, A Great Way to Spend A Day in Athens - My wife and I took the private snorkeling with hotel pickup in Athens. This was one of the best excursions on our trip. The hotel pickup and drop off made it extra stress free. Our guide and captain were excellent. They asked where we would like to snorkel and gave us great options for what we were looking for. We were taken to beautiful areas including sites with fish, boat remains and caves. We were never rushed and whenever we felt like we were ready to go, we then went back to shore and took a scenic trip along the coast and visited the Temple of Poseidon. We then went to a nearby place to eat and have a drink, before going back to the hotel.. It was very relaxing and chill day. I would highly recommend Extreme Divers to anyone visiting Athens.

GO WITH THIS COMPANY - I can not imagine finding someone more trustworthy or more fun to work with than George and his crew. They are honest, professional, safe and extremely flexible- they will cater to your preferences. I was able to snorkel with a few friends in areas with no one else around and experience the enchantment of the Aegean Sea. At the same time one of my friends scuba dived and other friends relaxed on our boat. It was perfect for each of us. It’s a great gift to work with a family run company who cares deeply about honoring their word and representing their family, community and country well.

amazing - Astonishing experience .... We organized this activity during a team building event and it was a great opportunity to connect and interact with our colleagues. The organizers were very accurate, professional, respecting the safety protocols and offered to us an unforgettable experience in Athenian Riviera that all of us will keep in our heart and memory for ever. The shipwreck is must :) They offered also an underwater camera to capture our moments, which was very much appreciated... Go for it, it worth's the time to invest to this. Thank you Georgios for your professionalism and marvelous tour. E.

Great day!! - Had a great time! Equipment in great condition. Don't try and save money on the half day trips. The little extra money is worth it! George and Amelia were extremely friendly and a pleasure to talk to. Was a great day! Hope I can go back soon!

Best Day Ever - This is a fantastic adventure! We were traveling with our three teenagers. George picked us up on time at our Athens hotel, stopped for coffee for my husband, and presented two different ways to organize our day. We chose to snorkel first. George and a first mate handled the boat. There were water bottles for everyone, fresh fruit and a big box of pastries, with flavors from sweet to salty. The first stop on the boat was a cave with sunlight streaming through a hole above. George gave us a Go Pro to use so we could photograph what we were seeing and the excellent time we were having. At the back of the cave is a crevice we could swim into as far as each of us wanted. We saw fish, coral and some sort of shelled animal on the wall. Next we went to a snorkeling spot in a small island bay. The kids explored some of the island. There were more and different fish swimming in the water and we found tons of sea urchins on the rocks. Totally cool. The kids took turns with the Go Pro camera. We were having so much fun we went to a third place to snorkel: an area between two small rocky islands. More and different fish, and one son swears he saw an octopus. We climbed on the rocks near both islands. The boat is terrific. It was clean, there was plenty of dry storage for things that shouldn’t get wet, like phones. George was very attentive, slowing down immediately when our daughter looked a little nervous after we hit some waves, and putting up the sun roof to shield us from the sun when it got hot. All five family members had a blast! We had chosen to maximize the snorkeling part of the day, but there was more. We headed back to land, used the clean restroom at the marina,and piled into the van to drive to Posidon’s Temple. Kids were hungry so George took us to an amazing bakery for lunch on the coast on the way. Posidon’s Temple is absolutely with the visit. The views are amazing - the temple is high above the water and its big. Another architectural marvel from a time when everything was built by human hands. George gave us a restaurant recommendation for dinner, which we took and ended up with a marvelous meal! Extreme Divers is totally organized, responsive and fun! We could not recommend them more highly, and the same goes for this particular tour!

Amazing Trip, Amazing Guide - George and extreme divers we’re amazing. The knowledge and history he has on the country, where to go, what to do can’t be matched. He is generous, kind, caring and makes sure that ever need and desire is met if possible. The tours are private to your group and tailored to what you like or want to do. I will never forget this trip. My love for Greece 🇬🇷 is all due to George and his company. Will be bring my entire family back in 2020 and we will again join George for our entire stay. Thanks for everything.

Not the relaxing private cruise I paid for - We didn't get the same experience as advervised. We were taken to 1 spot to snorkel. After an hour or so we were bored so we wanted to go somewhere else. The tour guide tried to get us to go to Poseidon's temple again. After saying no to it the 4th time and wasn't given another option, we went along. "Oh but its going to cost more. Oh we have to drive there." Wish we knew it upfront. I thought I booked a private cruise where I get to pick where to go. We didn't have enough money so tour guide took us to an ATM to withdraw cash for him. We paid 400 euros but afterward I searched on Tripadvisor and saw a $54.97 per adult trip to Poseidon's temple. We were hot and miserable driving around, not the cool relaxing cruise we booked. The trip lasted about 4 hours. Tour guide told Viator customer service that the trip was 7 hours long and the reason he didn't take us to the places advertised because I don't swim. There is no requirement on swimming to book this trip. The view info link said "Bring ... towels if you’re planning to swim" so swimming is optional. We went on a "Luxury Catamaran Cruise from Athens with Traditional Greek Meal and BBQ" with Sailing Athens the day before and it was perfect. Wish we had gone with them again instead of this shameful Extreme Divers. One star for the 1 spot tour guide took us to.
