Comfortable and fast catamaran for sailing. Guide also in Italian. Convenient stop in Paxos. The stop in Antipaxos should be improved; too many boats at the same time ruin the beauty of the place a bit. Visit to the caves was beautiful. Kind staff and the tour was well organized.
Qualified and friendly staff, I could not have wished for better. A special thanks to Spiros and Telios for the magnificent cocktails they prepared for us and to Claudia for always being available for any question about the history of every place visited. Super fun experience also because of the entertainment. Must do!!!

Amazing cruise from start to finish! The pickup location was very convenient with plenty of nearby parking, which made everything easy. Our guide was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and explained everything clearly in six different languages so everyone felt included. The captain was equally impressive: professional, experienced, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire trip. Highly recommend this boat tour to anyone looking for a fun, well-organized, and memorable experience!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A truly memorable experience with the Ionian Cruise and the ship Christina! From the first moment to the end of the tour, everything was perfectly organized and exceeded all our expectations. A big thanks to the wonderful guide Victoria, who with her smile, professionalism and knowledge made the trip even more interesting and enjoyable. Warm congratulations to Chef Belal, who prepared extremely delicious and quality food. Every meal was delicious! Particular mention deserve the bartenders Spyros and Elias, who were always smiling, polite and helpful, making great drinks and creating a very beautiful atmosphere on board. Finally, a big bravo to the photographer George, who immortalized the most beautiful moments of the day with professionalism and a very positive mood, giving us wonderful memories. The ship was clean, comfortable and very well organized, while the stops in the beautiful waters of the Ionian Sea were enchanting. The overall experience was excellent and it seemed that the whole team really loves what they do. I highly recommend Ionian Cruise and Christina to anyone who wants to spend an unforgettable day in the Ionian Sea. We will definitely choose it again!

amazing experience thanks to spiros and elios
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted that Spiros and Elias helped make your cruise such an amazing experience. We’ll happily pass your kind words on to them, and we hope to welcome you on board again someday!
Elias and Spiriros were amazing. Incredible service and their craic was seriously good. Coped with 20 Irish as best as I’ve seen. Would highly recommend.
“The best cruise I’ve ever been on” is one of the nicest compliments we could receive! Thank you so much. We’re thrilled that Elias and Spiros took such great care of your group and added to the fun of the day. We’ll make sure they hear your kind words — hopefully we’ll see you all back on board!
Great trip - really enjoyed Paxos as well as beach/swim at Antipaxos, even if later was very crowded with 4-5 other large boats at same time. The trip was a highlight for our 14 and 11 year old boys. Sadly, it was let down by the boarding process. We booked a number of days in advance via TripAdvisor and received a mobile ticket from them which stated it would be accepted. We received no tickets directly from Ionian Cruises. We arrived early/1st at harbour to get good seats outside and under shade but our tickets were not accepted and were told to go to back of queue where it would be sorted. It wasn’t. Eventually we were let on last and told it would be sorted later. Very frustrating! 5 mins later, and after set-off, Ionian Cruises emailed me our tickets. We didn’t get the seats we wanted, nor any reply to my mail to TA/Ionian with a polite complaint. In short, I wouldn’t re-book via TripAdvisor and would also consider alternate suppliers given our experience.
Very good the dj was amazing the trial was beautiful we want in many nice Pleace
