The Authentic Rhenia-Delos Cruise
Description
Sparkling seas and secluded beaches? Join our Rhenia – Delos cruise and live a day like no other! The Cycladic Sisters, Mykonos, Delos and Rhenia, each with her own personality, are among Greece’s most precious treasures. Jump from the boat anchored a few meters away from the shore of Rhenia and take a swim in the transparent waters, enjoy the sun on the fine sand of the beach or stroll around the small island and feel like you are the first to step on its shore. Are you hungry...? A typical lunch is awaiting for you on board and what a treat it is to discover Greek flavors! At around 14:30 we sail to Delos island in order to see the archeological site (the entrance fee is extra). If you don’t want to see Delos your captain will also give you the opportunity to visit another beach and continue swimming while the rest of the group explores Apollo’s birthplace. At around 16:30 we’ll start the trip back to Mykonos and the Old Port after a day full of fun and unique memories!

The islands were stunning, the staff was kind, the food was delicious. The boat was clean with a decent restroom. The waves can be scary around this “windy” island but the staff seemed confident as the boat rocked. My only concern and very important since we are a family with children, was that we had to be pushy to get life vests. We were a family of 4 and paid for 4 tickets. when my husband asked for life vests they tried giving us foam noodles. My husband asked for something more secure and they said we had to speak to the captain. We did and finally got only 2 child size vests, my husband was told “only 2”. We are all strong swimmers, have a pool at home but with children in the open sea with waves and currents, we feel strongly about life vests. We have never encountered this before. We have done similar activities in Cancun, Mexico, Mallorca Spain, the Caribbean and have been automatically given life vests for jumping into the ocean. Otherwise it was a great activity with fun family memories.
A wonderful experience! Boat was strong and smooth, even in high winds. Crew was really great- friendly and attentive, and seem to really truly it- they say they are family, and you feel it. And even though the destinations are the reason, Lunch was spectacular- best Greek food we’ve had! And the dance party back was adventurous in those seas, that’s for sure- If you’re visiting Mykonos, don’t miss this trip! Non stop fun and excitement!
The boat tour was a lot of fun and the bbq lunch was delicious!! The water was so clear for swimming and snorkeling, we saw lots of colourful fishes.
This was an amazing experience for anyone visiting Mykonos. The lunch provided was great, my friends and I made new friends, and the wine was flowing! Really fun time!
It was lovely. Sailing out to our first swim stop in the clear blue sea water, followed by authentic souvlaki lunch and then exploring Delos Island. A great day and the crew were great! 10/10 would recommend
Arrived on Mykonos today with the cruise Costa Fortuna. Had booked a boat trip here via Getyourguide with Aegean Ventures to 2 smaller islands. At those locations, you could swim in crystal clear water. A delicious lunch was provided on the boat. Everything well organized, neat on time, super friendly staff. Really everything was right. Therefore for us for this wonderful day a big ten!
Short boat ride. Cold waters. Everything charged extra - towels and Snorkeling gear. Okay food - good bar. Dancing at the end was fun !
Great trip to see both islands. The staff is very nice and helpful, and the food was just right (chicken/beef kebab, Greek salad, tizaki, rice). The visit at Delos can be hot- bring an insulated water bottle if you have it or buy waters on the boat. No shops at all on Delos. Fun to jump off the boat and enjoy the beautiful water.
the sound system was extremely loud. my watch kept notifying me (and it is at the default setting for noise levels) . It was so painfully loud we had to plug our ears we were told the Delos portion wld be 2:30 - 4pm. The boat arrived early on Delos, but assumed the departure time had not changed, and there was no announcement upon arrival of when to return to the boat. We arrived back at the boat at 3:50 and were clearly the last to board, as the boat set sail again as soon as we were on board friendly crew- good lunch.
Things we loved: beauty of rhenia island and Delos! Things we would’ve loved to know before the cruise: more specific info of pick up and drop off. How many people- a FULL boat of maybe 50 or so! We spent 45 mins waiting for the boat to board everyone. How windy Mykonos and both islands were which the locals told us is an every day thing not just the day we visited-the water is freezing even with the 80 degree temp. Most importantly we were most disappointed in the price gouge. For paying almost $200/person they wanted to charge us 15 euros for each towel and 15 more for each snorkel geer both just RENTALS. Be so careful with this company saying “the opportunity to…” which I guess in their terms mean you’re stranded so we’ll price gouge you if you want to do anything you signed up for like snorkel and swim. With that price we assumed we would be accommodated instead of just asked to pay more and more for everything.
