This is my first time going on a catamaran in Santorini, and I love it. The weather is a bit chilly since it’s mid-November. I didn’t go swimming, but it didn’t take away the fantastic experience and the views. The crew was delightful and friendly. The food was excellent. Watching the sunset was lovely. I highly recommend this company to anyone. You won’t be disappointed.

We had a fantastic experience on this cruise this past June. We got to swim in two different spots, and snorkel as well. Our tour guides were knowledgeable, fun and served a yummy meal too!

The crew, food and of course the cruise and destinations around Santorini were amazing. The sunset never fails. I highly recommend this excursion with this provider. Bravo!

Adonis was great was the only one there so got to do whatever we wanted very happy with everything would definitely do it again with more people

Great service, superb experience. Highly recommended.
