This was the best cruise that we have been on. The hot springs was amazing; the swim there was really cold but I found a few hot pockets that felt great. The food and the vibes were awesome. We met some really nice down to earth ppl. The service was great. 10/10 we highly recommend.

My husband and I had a wonderful time on the sunset dinner cruise. We enjoyed visiting with the other guests. The weather was a little chilly that evening so we chose not to swim, but on a hot day that would have been quite refreshing. The hostess was very attentive and provided us with unlimited beverages. The food was pretty basic. The menu included fried fish (delicious), shrimp, chicken breasts, spaghetti, and a Greek salad. The sunset was lovely. We had a great time and highly recommend.

This tour is excellent. Passes white beach, red beach, the lighthouse, hot springs and more. I was afraid of getting seasick and I did not. The staff was super accommodating and made sure that we were never thirsty. The tour includes water, beer and white wine. The food is very good as well. The best part is watching the sunset in Oia and the playlist on the boat is great

It was great to see a huge portion of the Santorini coastline! The catamaran was in good condition and the crew was very friendly. The only downside was the food not being as greek-style as it could have been.

Stop shopping and reading reviews because THIS is the one!! The most amazing experience, views, and best crew around! Our captain was Leo and our crew was Shohag, Joe, & Neda. They were attentive, professional, and all around genuinely nice people. And the food was fantastic! It was honestly one of our best experiences in Santorini!

I rate this tour a 1 because it was canceled. We found out after waiting 20 minutes for our pickup. The operator said they notified us the evening before but we did not receive a call, text, email or WhatsApp message. Also the meeting point instructions were unclear. The operator offered us an opportunity to reschedule but our itinerary wouldn’t allow. Maybe you’ll have better luck.

This cruise was excellent! Just the right amount of time. The small group size was great to get away from the crowd. Transportation to the boat was quick and well organized. The staff on the ship was knowledgeable and the food was great! Definitely recommended!!!! Thank you to the crew for a job well done!
