From the moment we boarded, everything was perfect. The wooden sailboat was charming, and the relaxed pace let us truly soak in the scenery. Swimming in the open water while the sun set in the background was unforgettable. Highly recommended!
We loved seeing the city from the water, especially at sunset. It was peaceful, romantic, and a welcome contrast to the crowds on land. The crew made sure we were taken care of, and the whole experience felt special and authentic.
This tour delivered everything it promised—calm seas, golden skies, and a laid-back atmosphere. It never felt crowded, and the music and drinks made the whole experience feel like a mini vacation. One of the highlights of our trip!
If you’re looking for a break from the busy city, this is it. The boat was spacious and comfortable, and watching the sun dip into the sea with a drink in hand felt like a dream. The swim stop was a refreshing bonus too. Absolutely worth it!
This cruise was exactly what I needed—peaceful, beautiful, and so relaxing. Sailing along the Athenian Riviera as the sun went down was pure magic. The crew was warm and welcoming, the snacks were fresh, and the music created the perfect vibe. 10/10 would do it again!
