Best day ever! - If you want a day in paradise this is it! Beautiful catamaran along the Athens coast. Two swimming stops with noodles, snorkels and find. Can swim, float or jump into refreshing clear water. An amazing meal. Salad, pasta with seafood, tzatziki. Fabulous! And wonderful hosts. A day we won’t forget. Play your own play lists and relax.

Top experience with the Catamaran - It was a wonderful experience with the Catamaran. Niki and Kristos received our family in a very hospitable manner. We sailed with the wind to an island and met dolphins on the way. We enjoyed snorkeling, swimming, suntanning and the beautiful views of the Greek Riviera. The extensive Greek meals and fruit desserts prepared by Niki were super tasty😀

This was such a fun,... - This was such a fun, relaxing day after a full week of exploring historic Athens (with all the up hill walking that involves). I was traveling with my 16-year old grandson so can attest that this trip appeals to a wide age range. The crew were thoughtful, attentive, available to explain all that we were seeing and to be sure that we felt genuinely cared about. The food was extraordinary, perhaps some of the best we had in Athens. It was so relaxing just to sail for a while and see Athens from the perspective of the sea. But, it was also fun to have the opportunity to swim a bit. A final, wonderful aspect is all the interesting passengers we met and had a real chance to talk with and get to know.

Beautiful Day - Our little family and friends booked a semi- private boat tour with Yacht hop. From the beginning communication was great and all questions answered quickly. On the day of our booking , directions for meeting were easy and timely. The vessel was nice and though we had to change our route due to weather and high winds, we still had a good time and relaxing sail. Kristo and Nikki were on board and took excellent care of our group. The food prepared was delicious and a bit of a tease as we could smell it cooking. The stops made for swimming had refreshing water and ample time to enjoy. The staff was always quick to meet our needs. We are especially pleased with their attention to our 6-year-old son. Captain Krstolet him steer and Nikki was playing with him and fulfilling his snack requests. We definitely plan to repeat a trip will Yachthop and hope to have the same crew

Day cruise to Aigina and back - We rented a catamaran for our family (2 adults and 2 kids 7 and 4 years old) and we wanted to see how we would like spending all day on the boat for a first time in this kind of boat. Have to say that whole experience was extremely positive for us and more importantly for our kids. Our needs were discussed and understood in advance and both Christos and Eleni were patient, friendly and flexible with us which was exactly what we needed. We spent the day at Aigina, then stopped over for a swim in Vouliagmeni and we enjoyed the sunset while cruising along the Athens riviera on our way back to the port. Everything was great, Christos with never ending patience explaining everything to our son and Eleni brought home made pie to start the day and always looking after us and our kids. So overall 5 stars for us and we look forward for our next excursion
