Review of Santorini Star Sailing’s 5-hour catamaran cruise, with Red Beach, hot springs, Thirassia, BBQ, open bar, and sunset views.
“Very good boat experience. We had a nice relaxing time. Did some swimming in the Sea. It was nice and refreshing. The crew was terrific. Lunch was very nice. Swam in the hot springs which were kind of warm here and there. From the description I was under the impression we were walking up to the volcano, snorkeling and walking around the town of Oia. We didn’t snorkel which was okay with me but I was looking forward to. We saw the Volcano but didn’t walk up to it and didn’t stop at red beach either like it was advertised. For those reasons have to give it four stars. It…”
Review of Corfu’s small-group sailing trip from Gouvia, with swimming, snorkeling, cliff jumping, blue caves, snacks, and soft drinks.

The trip was really nice, very chilled and relaxed. Our skipper - Thassos was a real character, very knowledgable of area and entertaining, loved the cliff jumping display! He also made us lovely sandwiches and fruit!”

Review of Mykonos catamaran cruise to Rhenia with lunch, drinks, water toys, hotel transfers, and possible Delos views.
“The whole experience was amazing! The catamaran was beautiful, the staff was exceptional, and the scenery breathtaking. The crew gave a history lesson of Delos as we passed by. We then had a stop where we could swim, snorkel, and paddle board in the Aegean Sea. The dinner they prepared on board was absolutely delicious! Would highly recommend this excursion.”
