Great day on the water - I really liked the set up of the boat. Being able to lay down in the bow area on soft mats was a nice feature. Crew was very experienced. I would recommend this tour.

Exploring Paros and Antiparos from the sea! - A fun day of exploring the coast of the lovely Islands of Paros and Anitparos. Great company and fun crew, super swimming spots, and classic Greek food and drink to complete the day of sailing on this unique vessel.

BEAUTIFUL Lagoons and Fun Trip! - We were able to book this boat a bit last minute as another boat we had booked earlier in our trip was cancelled due to weather. We're so glad we did! There was plenty of room for all of us to lay out on the boat, the food they provided was great and the unlimited drinks were a nice touch as well. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The blue lagoons we saw were absolutely breath taking. Highly recommend this boat and experience!

BEST DAY EVER ON THE BEST TOUR!!! - I can’t say enough good things about this tour!!! We had the time of our lives! The crew were friendly, accommodating, and provided great service. We made it to all the spots safely (they explained when detours were made and we all agreed as a group to do what’s safest), ate delicious authentic food, made friends (we had a great group of people on the boat luckily), and had what seemed like unlimited alcohol. Any reviews that mention no music etc - that’s YOUR own fault. We were offered speakers right off the bat (and had back up speakers when the battery died) and played our own music from our phones via Bluetooth. Thank you again for this wonderfully heavenly day!!!!! I will never forget it! Will DEFINITELY recommend to friends

Great time, but a few hiccups... - The operator was very friendly and easy to communicate with prior to and during the excursion. The crew on board was friendly and helpful, and there was plenty of food, beer, and soda. In all, it was a fun and enjoyable experience. Words of caution though: Do you homework ahead of time on weather. We were very disappointed that the crew convinced us not to go to Despotiko and the Sea Caves of Antiparos because of "wind and cold water", only to hear from our neighbors at the hotel that they went with another boat operator and the wind and water were just fine. Our other neighbors were on this same tour the next day, and we warned them about this. Sure enough, they were given the same story about wind and cold water. Only, they insisted on going anyway and discovered the same calm and warm water. We actually rented our own boat the day after, and discovered the same thing once again. Also, they do not have snorkeling equipment. They do have a few masks, but no snorkels or fins. When we asked, they said it was because they were not allowed to once COVID came around. Luckily, we had our own snorkels and masks, but would have liked to use some fins though. Aside from this, the boat is very nice, comfortable, and overall a pleasant experience.

Relaxing - Nice relaxing trip. Due to wind we were not able to go to all stops, but had the chance to swim in some beautiful spots. Food was ok, crew was competent. If you want to snorkel bring your own equipment. Only a mask was provided, no snorkel or fins.

Decent excursion - First the positives: Nice boat, good food. Great scenery of Paros and environs. Two big negatives which is why this isn't 5 stars and only 3. First: In their listing they say "Snorkeling equipment" will be provided. The only equipment the boat had were masks. No snorkels and no fins. I would suggest that they may want to advise customers to bring their own snorkeling equipment if they aren't going to provide it. Second: The 3 crew people were smoking...a lot. Some of the customers were smoking also. I think it's somewhat dangerous and if someone (like me) has breathing issues, it's not real comfortable.
