Luxury Santorini catamaran cruise with free hotel transfers, snorkeling stops, BBQ buffet, open bar, and sunset views. 5 hours.
“Wow what an amazing experience! The entire crew was incredible, especially Captain Leo. The crew helped with everything from making sure our cups were full, providing blankets for the wind, towels to dry, background and history of every location, to being our personal photographers telling us how to pose and making sure we always captured the best backgrounds and angles! Food was delicious- plenty to go around and more than enough for seconds, even thirds. The hot springs were the best in terms of swimming since the day was a bit cooler. Fun cocktails to end the boat ride as we watched the sun go down, the views were absolutely…”

“Our tour guide Chris was amazing! He took us all over the island and his knowledge of Santorini made this tour even better! We visited Oia and took such great pictures with breathtaking views of the island. He recommended this seaside restaurant on Black Beach which was so perfect for a quick bite! We went on to Red Beach for a short hike and even more incredible views! We were a party of 4 and were so comfortable in our private van. We finished in Fira with a late lunch at The Vine overlooking the beautiful coast. Our day couldn’t have been more perfect and Chris was the perfect guide…”
Luxury Santorini catamaran cruise with hotel transfers, BBQ, open bar, and three swim stops at the hot springs, White Beach, and Red Beach.
“Staff was extremely friendly fly on the boat and we were very well fed!! It’s a smaller boat at the front so not a lot of room to way out and be on your own space, when we got to the point to board the boat we were left waiting for a while because different boats were loading and off loading, it was just a bit random and isn’t mentioned when booking! Other than that it’s a great way to swim in the amazing waters and see the coastline would definitely recommend”
Luxury Santorini sunset catamaran with hot springs, snorkel stops, Greek BBQ, drinks, and hotel transfers, up to 20 guests.
“We had an enjoyable experience aboard the Sunrise 2 catamaran. The Captain, Yiannis, and crew - Thanos, Angela, and Sergio were attentive and worked hard to serve to the passengers on the boat. The sunset was spectacular, definitely 5-star; however, the transfers to/from the boat were caotic and seemed very disorganized. The crew created a mouth watering spread for dinner but unfortunately those that ordered chicken were a little disappointed because it was very overcooked. Those that ordered pork were much more satisfied. We made several stops but the first 2 seemed rushed...only 20 min to get in/out of the water. The last stops were much more relaxed. Overall, I…”

Luxury private Santorini half-day cruise with hotel pickup, Red and White Beach swims, volcano hot springs, snorkeling gear, snacks.
“This was a do!! George the captain was amazing. We had some rough weather so we’re unable to do the lighthouse or volcano but if we had more days he offered to reschedule. We decided to continue with just the beach tour and we are so glad we did! George took us to some hidden spots we had a fabulous time! We were able to see red, white and black beach and do some cave diving in a hidden spot. The hospitality onboard was also excellent as we enjoyed some local pastry’s, homemade sandwiches and some delicious Greek wine while on board.”

“This was honestly the highlight of our trip. Amazing home cooked meal, hosts were kind and knowledgable about the island, spectacular sunset from a unique view! My favorite parts were the volcanic springs and swimming in the bay to snorkel. They have noodles so don't be scared if you can't swim well. The privacy was great and worth the extra cost.
