““Il tramonto è il luogo dove il giorno lascia il suo ultimo bacio al mare.” ( P. Neruda) Esperienza Indimenticabile a Santorini – Una giornata in barca da sogno!.”
“Amazing, amazing experience! Cannot say enough wonderful things about this. They went above and beyond in every single way. From the wine from the family vineyard, to the fresh picked organic fruits, to the amazing cocktails and homemade desserts. This was the highlight of our Greece trip. Such a wonderful couple who really care about their customers and do everything in their power to make sure everyone makes lifelong memories :)”
“THIS TOUR IS A MUST! Amazing hosts, homemade food and gorgeous sites. The best way to see Santorini island Athena and her husband are the most amazing hosts. They are so warm and friendly and made our tour one we will never forget. We learned the history of the island, experienced all of the different areas with stops in between to jump in the water, snorkel or just chill on the boat. They made homemade food for us and brought us her wine she makes. Everything was AMAZING”
“One of the best experiences we had in greece. We rented a boat with meal, the meal was one of the best we had in greece, chris and petros were so wonderful and helpful all the way from the start and end. Very respectful of us and gave us our privacy whenever possible. The boat has a seating area for the meals as well as a front space to see the lovely scenery and equipped with a small bathroom. I strongly recommend this experience. We swam next to the red beach for privacy and in the hot spring which was a very pleasant and unique experience. My wife and i had the loveliest time and would happily recommend anyone interested in boat experience with amazing local food with family recipes ( we had shrimp pasta and multiple zucchini dishes that are out of this world as well as a banana biscuit/bread dessert that is exquisite). Love from saudi arabia”
