Great 3 Island Tour - Fantastic trip with truly great and professional crew and so much care an attention to everything. Great bbq lunch was served on the beach including drinks. Really interesting commentary particularly about Scorpios island and Aristotle Onassis and Jackie Kennedy.

Papanikolis boat is the best - The one I went on was the papanikolis cruise boat they only take 20 people provide a great lunch family owned business. The cruise starts at 10 am if you choose the earlier you are on a boat with 100 others.

Fabulous Ocean swims around Lefkada - A fabulous day sailing from Nidri, with swim stops at the Cave of Papanikolis, Lakka beach & the private island of Onassis. With a cafe/village stop on Meganissi too. Diving into the cool blue Ionian ocean & floating above feeding fish was a true highlight of our holiday so far. The crew were great, and homemade lunch was really tasty. The boat was at capacity of 40 people, but still space to sit comfortably. A very relaxing & chilled trip, with history of the islands learnt as we sailed around, visiting some places only accessible by boat. We took water with us. But you can buy this & other chilled drinks on board.

Great day out for sun and surf. - We had a great relaxing day cruising around the islands of Lefkada. Setting out from Nidri harbour after being being picked up from our accommodation, we visited a cave where you could go for a swim. Stopped on Meganisi for a walk up to Spartochori village then off to a beach for lunch. Swam in in the sea on several occasions to cool off. BBQ lunch (included in the price) was great with a portion of souvlaki ,Greek salad, tzatziki, bread and wine. Second helpings if you wanted it but the portions were large anyway. The crew on board were very friendly and told us about the different islands we passed. The boat and facilities were good and wasn't as big as some we have been on, which was a bonus. There is plenty of areas on board for keeping out of the sun if you get too hot. Overall, a great day out and would recommend.

Lanka is not on Lefkada - I have not been on this trip. However, one of the stops (Lanka, Paxos) is on a completely different Island (Paxos) - south of Corfu by about 5miles. I think it’s odd that the organisers would mention this in their itinerary.
