The boat is immaculate, and our host was stellar sharing insights on the local history and culture. Where we sailed was beautiful; accessible only by boat, with some of the finest swimming I've experienced in my trip. Our lunch was delicious too. I tried to take many pictures, but none of them do the scenery any justice. This is an excursion that we will remember the rest of our days.”

“It was fantastic! Dimitria is an amazing host. All the food she prepared exceeded our expectations and is far more and better then listed. The other staff members were great too and even shared some info on the historical buildings we passed. The boat trip itself was really nice. They had pool noodles to keep everyone afloat easily and even two sup boards. Also the boat was super clean, had a really decent toilet and was very comfortable overall. I can definitely recommend this. Also the person organising this, Sophia, is really kind and helpful.”
