An amazing day! - An amazing day! Meet at the port of Kissamos where it is easy to park (free). There were 10 of us on board. The team gave us a very warm welcome and was very caring throughout the day. The snacks and lunches served are homemade, with local products. Excellent. The landscapes are breathtaking. Masks, snorkel, paddle, waterproof bag are provided on board. We highly recommend this catamaran day!

Proposal with Sailing Cruises Chania - This company is incredible. I told them I wanted to propose on a private cruise and they made accommodations to make it a special moment. Such a great experience, and it was really cool to see a father and son as our skippers who were extremely personable and were a fun time. Would absolutely recommend Sailing Cruises Chania!!

Fantastic full day sailing trip - Superb from start to finish. We did a full day sailing trip to Gramvousa and Balos Lagoon. Communication with Natassa was excellent when booking and throughout. Our first date had to be cancelled because of exceptional winds but Natasss was extremely helpful with rearranging. The boat crew were friendly and knowledgeable. Lunch was superb!! Fresh and authentic. Nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend

A fantastic day trip and the highlight of our holiday! - What a wonderful experience from start to finish! The communication with Natassa was excellent prior to the trip, making the booking both a personal and efficient experience. The boat is beautiful, she is in wonderful condition and scrupulously clean with excellent facilities. The provision of paddle board, pool noodles, snorkelling gear and rubber ring was great. Panos was knowledgeable and interesting, bringing the history of Chania to life. The snacks and lunch were excellent, I can’t rate their food and the care and attention they put into it more highly. My daughter is celiac and they provided her with delicious gluten free snacks and a wonderful gluten free aubergine with feta cheese and tomato for her lunch along with gluten free bread, all served separately to avoid cross contamination - and all prepared on board. Thank you!! All in all an amazing and memorable trip and a highlight of our holiday!

Great Sunset Cruise - We had a wonderful experience. Our family of 7 enjoyed being on the beautiful "Metaxamama" sail boat. The crew of Panos and Mihalis were great. We jumped off the boat for a nice swim. They prepared a beautiful Cretan snack for us. It was much more than a snack. Due to calm winds, we weren't able to travel under sail, but the very calm sea was nice.

An Experience You Won’t Find Anywhere Elsewhere - Our private sailing experience was superb! Panos and Kostas really went above and beyond to deliver an exceptional experience on our sailing journey. I even got to steer the boat! They were very accommodating to diet restrictions with fresh made food right on the boat, and had plenty of drinks for the whole family. Panos was well educated on the history and mythology of the local area. They brought us to nice private spot where we were able to dive in the crystal clear waters and even had a paddle board we were able to enjoy as well. As a local family owned business, they delivered an experience better than you’d expect from a commercial company.
