Zakynthos Sailing Private Day Charter

We stumbled across Alex (@zakynthossailing) while wandering around the marina on our trip to Zakynthos, actively looking for a boat to take us to the shipwreck and the Blue Caves. As a family of eight, we wanted our own private charter — something more relaxed than being packed onto one of the bigger commercial boats with a crowd of strangers. It turned out to be the best decision of the holiday. The day was fantastic from start to finish, and Alex made it an experience we'll all remember. Highly recommended if you're after something personal - also at significantly cheaper cost than the bigger brand boats ..

We hired Alex and his boat for a private charter for the day. We had an excellent day out, Alex took us around the south coast to various swimming spots where the kids were able to snorkel (Alex provided the snorkels). It was a hugely enjoyable day, we felt very well looked after, safe and it was great value for money. We even got to see some turtles! We'll do it again if we return to Zante!

Very friendly, competent and professional skipper. Wonderful atmosphere, highly recommended. Truly unique experience in

Alex, the friendly skipper of the Soliton, took care of an excellent sailing trip for a group of five consisting of grandparents, adult children and one grandchild. The baby could sleep inside the ship in a baby bed we brought ourselves. Chilled drinks (including beer and wine) and a good sandwich lunch were provided as well. The car could be parked very nearby on a large and almost empty parking lot (this was early May). Alex turned out to be a very capable navigator who took us to some very beautiful spots with seals and caves along the southern coast.

This was not my first time sailing on this boat and it will certainly not be my last. Alexandros is a amazing man and will give you the best experience of sailing on the cost of zakynthos. We hired the boat for a private trip for just our family as we said a final farewell to my father in-law using a biodegradable urn, Alexandros had so much respect and gave us all the time we needed at this time. During the trip like others you get to dive off the boat but his boat has one of the easiest ways to get on and off the boat and with the steps he has you don't have to dive into the water if you don't want too.

This was an amazing day, thanks to Alex. A great, professional, happy and spontanious captain. He knows a lot about the island, good (not so touristic) places and sailing. He is a great host and very personal in his way of living. We did the Southern tour with three different swimming stops. Alex knows what he does and he is not pushing his guests. The sailing vessel has been good taken care of, is full of equipment and does have different places to relax. The very best day of our holiday!

Our sailing vacation in the Ionian Sea was amazing, thanks to our skipper, Alexandros! His expert knowledge, sailing skills, and friendly demeanour made our trip perfect. We explored beautiful beaches and charming villages, enjoying every moment. Alexandros' recommendations and professionalism ensured a safe and incredible experience. Plus, he makes delicious iced coffee! Highly recommended.

From the moment we set foot on the sailboat Alexandros was a welcoming and smiling host! He is an experienced sailor and immediately made us feel safe. Living in Zakynthos, he knows all the best spots around the island and thanks to his skills and attention, we were lucky enough to see both a turtle and many dolphins! If you’re searching for the perfect private boat tour, look no further! Thanks again Alexandros! :)
