Top Service,super Qualität...
Booked the VIP experience which had reserved loungers in the sun and reserved seats under the shade which was definitely worth the upgrade. Crew was great and Alfonso our host was the best! Most boat tours I’ve been on had just small snacks but this trip had coffee and breakfast offerings right at the beginning, meats, cheese and bread in the middle, an amazing fully cooked Cretan meal with shrimp orzo, Greek salad, stew, and chicken and then light snacks and fruit at the end. Lots of offerings at the bar as well. The beaches were so beautiful and the deep water was stunning. Probably our best day trip boating experience we’ve ever had. Tip them well!!!!
Everything we hoped it would be! Very friendly staff, GREAT food and drinks, fun music, and views we could only dream of! We got to swim, snorkel, climb the top of a mountain, and enjoy the incredible sights.

We had a blast on this boat cruise! The scenery and beaches were beautiful, the food was delicious, and the staff was kind. We were comfortable without the VIP tickets, and still had plenty of room on the benches and the net at the front of the boat. Parking was easy at the port nearby. I’d recommend this tour to everyone!

Excellent prompt service and a fun voyage to scenic beaches. Alfonso, our guide, gave interesting historical insights as well as good music for the voyage. Food was great too as a bonus!!

This was an amazing excursion. We purchased the VIP and it was worth it. The staff, especially Alfonso, the host with most, was great. Alonso brought wonderful energy. The two stops were perfect. We hiked to the top of the fortress. The view was amazing. The food and drinks on the boat were delicious. The transportation showed up on time and there was excellent communication from the moment we booked our tour. I highly recommend this tour.

It was a wonderful day! The crew was friendly and fun. Plenty of life jackets, pool noodles, float, and snorkel supplies for all who wanted them. The boat had places in the sun and shade. Light snacks, lunch, and soft drinks were available throughout the day. Very friendly to kids. The only negative/suggestion I would give is that if you are driving yourself to the port, I wish there would’ve been better signage or communication about exactly where the boat would be and where it would be best to park.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad you and your family enjoyed the day, the crew, and all the onboard amenities. We also appreciate your helpful feedback regarding signage and parking information. We will definitely take this into consideration to improve the experience for future guests. We hope to welcome you on board again soon!
