“We were picked up by an upscale van to the marina where Joanna and Kastas met us. We sailed to 2 lovely places for a chance to swim. It was chilly so we just enjoyed the view. They put up the sails which was great and sailed awhile. They then cooked us a delicious dinner. One of the best meals I’ve had in Athens!! Then we sailed back and enjoyed the sunset. I would highly recommend this tour to any age!!! I was more than pleased.”

“As Jimmy Buffet was sang “I’ve wanted to sail your waters since I was three feet tall”, My business trip to Europe routed me through Athens on my way home. With a few days to spare I decided that a little R&R would be good for me. A sunset cruise on the Aegean was a perfect little escape. The yacht was clean and her Captain and crew did a wonderful job entertaining and teaching us the rich history of coastal Athens. Sailing coastal Greece was a dream come true.”
