Review of Eos Yachts’ 5.5-hour Dia Island catamaran cruise from Heraklion, with lunch, open bar, snorkeling, SUPs, and sunset views.
“The best caramaran in the port and I'm sure is the crew. Amazing captain, chef and assistant. Beautiful and tasteful food, with dinner and snacks before and after. Everything is thought of, even SUPs and snorkel equipments. Captain anchored us in the best spot in the bay, close to the shore. Amazing experience, would reccomend to anyone.”
Review of Athens’ VIP Saronic Islands cruise, with Hydra, Poros, Aegina, buffet lunch, hotel transfers, and practical value advice.
“Great Value and you got to see a lot for such a short amount of time. Manager of VIP section was great. VIP section was very comfortable compared to the general section were people were crammed and baking in the sun. My girlfriend and I got to enjoy the boat ride in a lesser populated area with couches, private bar, and dinning where we could eat comfortably in cooler climate (air conditioning is a deal breaker in Greece during the summer season). The advantage of VIP was getting to bypass the boarding line when boarding on and coming off. Overall great experience and money well spent.”

“The tour guide was definitely not even reasonable. The tour is advertised as a private experience with food included and more, but in reality, it only offers unlimited soft drinks throughout the day. There’s no breakfast—I had to pay for that myself. Around 10 a.m. they served a few snacks, and at about 12 p.m. there was lunch, which was far from being enough to actually satisfy anyone. If you truly want a private area, it costs an extra one thousand euros to upgrade. I do not recommend this tour, not even if it cost a third of the price.”
Review of Crete’s 6.5-hour catamaran cruise from Heraklion to Dia Island, with lunch, drinks, swimming, snorkeling, SUP, and practical tips.

Review of Chrissi Island’s six-hour luxury yacht cruise from Ierapetra, with lunch, swimming, snorkeling, a small group, and practical tips.
“The best day trip you could take. We had an amazing time swimming around the crystal waters and having a brilliant lunch. The crew were so attentive and took great care of us.”
Cruise from Rhodes to Symi, swim at St. George’s Bay, enjoy three hours ashore, and taste local shrimp for $81 per person.
“Most of the seats are hard plastic and very uncomfortable. They sold more tickets than seats, so some passengers had to stand the whole trip (~1.5 hours). To avoid standing, you need to arrive very early. It’s not possible to go to the bow or the upper deck, and there are no proper spots for photos since all the space is filled with plastic chairs. There is nothing “luxury” about this tour. Definitely not recommended.”

See Corfu’s coast, Paleokastritsa, Lakones, and northern villages on an 8-hour private tour with local tastings and hotel pickup.
“After rescheduling to later in the week, the operator cancelled the tour. The reason given was that they didn’t have enough participates. They did provide a full refund and give us free tickets to the hop-on hop-off tour. However, we wasted all week waiting to visit sites on the tour. Not sure I will use Viator again”
