Custom Traditional Wooden Boat Tours to south coast and Tragonisi or Delos Rinia
It was an awesome trip for us 4 (family with two kids (14,16). The boat is very nice with a sunbed on top, food area with a table (under a shadow roof) and a shadow area downstairs (open). The snack provided on our 4 hrs trip was yummy and fresh, even homegrown cherry tomatoes! We experienced the cave with swimming and snorkeling. Francoise and Saratis are very nice, the booking, communication and the pick up at the beach was extremely easy! On our next trip to Mykonos, we will surely book a trip again!

Go crusing about Ohrid, Macedonia on this 10 person rental
He will guide you around and show you the best spots. We swam several times and he gave us time for pictures. Lunch was relaxing and he never rushed us for anything. I recommend him to everyone who wants a relaxing boat trip with fun memories.

Private Cruise Speedboat for 8 in Halkidiki, Greece
If I could give 10 stars I would! Communication with Nakis was so easy. Our captain, Mike, was amazing and felt like part of our family. He was not only knowledgeable about the area, he made us feel safe and comfortable. We will DEFINITELY do this again the next time we are in the area.

Private Cruise to the South Coast of Mykonos or Rhenia island or Tragonisi caves
Today my family and I enjoyed a fantastic 2-hour boat tour in Mykonos and it was absolutely amazing. From the very beginning, the service was excellent the crew was kind, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome. They offered unlimited drinks and fresh fruit throughout the ride, which was a lovely touch, especially under the Greek sun. The boat was super cool, clean, and we could choose the music we wanted to listen to, making the atmosphere even more special. The explanations given during the route were clear and interesting. It was the perfect mix of relaxation, fun, and discovery. Definitely an experience we’d recommend to anyone visiting Mykonos with family or friends
