Must have made in Santorini! - Our time with Caldera Yachting was outstanding. Filippos led us safely and confidently to the water and was always warm and accommodating. He also drove us home. I would recommend transportation to you. On the yacht we were spoiled with delicious food and had a lot of fun thanks to the great entertainment of Dogus and Ulas. Both radiated an incredible warmth and made us feel completely comfortable. The journey was not only safe and enjoyable, but also full of unforgettable moments. A big thank you to the whole team for this wonderful experience!

Beautiful catamaran excursion around the caldera, warm staff, cruise to the top! - We had an extraordinary time on the catamaran Freedom. Everything was perfect our transfer from our hotel to the port, the welcome and sympathy of our skippers with their 5 year old daughter, the circuit, swimming stops, food and drinks on board. Great atmosphere, very good exchanges. We highly recommend this excursion with sunset. Thank you for this timeless moment.

Perfect evening sunset! - Perfect afternoon and evening with Caldera Yachting onboard ‘Oasis’. The crew were superb, telling us about the area, the islands and the volcanos. Stopping for swims and snorkelling and following a beautiful BBQ cooked on board, the return journey captured the most amazing sunset!! The whole trip set to awesome, well thought out music that captured every moment.

We couldn’t have asked for more. - This was a fantastic experience. The crew were really friendly and helpful. The bbq was a good spread of seafood, chicken, sausages. We stopped regularly for swimming which was fab for the keen swimmers amongst us. The highlight for us was definitely the sunset. It was truly amazing!!

Catamaran ride - Nice sea trip but much too expensive, a swimming time of barely 10 minutes for a 5 hour trip...supposedly swimming in hot water springs but the water is very cold, a walk in the middle of 'around fifty catamarans and what's more, not everyone pays the same price on board for the same services!!!!! A barbecue, certainly nice but extremely simple, a glass of white wine and soda... It was not at all worth the 320€ paid for 2 people!!!
