Highlights
  • Agkistri - Agistri is one of the Saronic Gulf’s islands, ideal for a weekend getaway from Athens. Thanks to its magnificent natural environment and the secluded, sun-drenched beaches, this island is a little hidden gem ready to be explored.

Visit the most spectacular beaches and taste delicious traditional delicacies. Get lost in Megalochori’s streets with charming houses and taverns.

This is what you really expect from Agistri: authenticity, freedom, and tranquillity.

  • Nisís Metópi - Metopi or Aponisos or Moni, our swimming spot is chosen based on weather conditions in order to enjoy pristine crystal-clear green-blue waters full of underwater sea life.

You could not ask for more than our chosen swimming spot which can offer you an ideal situation for both swimming and snorkelling.

  • Aegina - Aegina is the largest island in the Saronic Gulf, just 17 miles away from Athens. Aegina’s ancient history takes place back in 500 B.C.

Explore the ancient Greek temple of Apollo known as Kolona, meaning column, because just one column remains today from this ancient construction. It dates from the 6th century BC, even earlier than the Parthenon in Athens.

Aegina is also famous worldwide for the high quality of its local pistachio nut. Among the highlights of the island, are the stunning beaches of Marathon, Agia Marina, and Perdika which is known for its seafood taverns.

Fun, beautiful but not enough comfortable seating - There is much that is lovely about this trip -- the water, the islands, and the lunch is very nice. The staff work hard. However, the tour sells about 8 to 10 more tickets than they have comfortable seating for, and this means that the entire day devolves into a struggle to find a place to sit (let alone one of the comfortable lounge-y pillows), which (the crew acknowledge) they can't do much about and gets unpleasant among guests. This is a needless scarcity; they could just sell fewer tickets. But will they? I wouldn't count on it. When it comes down to it, 10 hours without an assured place to relax is just not great.
