Rent a no license boat - For us, the experience was excellent. Of course, you must accept that for the Greeks in the agency, in tourist services, and in tourist areas in general, we are only a source of income — never friends (some Greek girls are a bit better in this regard). But it is what it is. For example, the captain who did the briefing with us was rather arrogant and impatient, considering we did this for the first time — but he can suck a cock. We got what we wanted, and that is the only thing that really matters.

A complete breakdown, at a calm pace - We met at the harbor in Sfakia at 8:30 and saw how DE just arranged the last thing on the boats, at 9 and about 15-20 minutes. We had ordered EN refrigerator with ice and 2 masks with snorkel, We enjoy all stops, and the walks in the wave blue (there are different shades of blue) stops on beaches and cities. This isn't the last time we're taking EN trip like this.

Family trip with rental boat - Very nice trip with children. Weather was perfect and we visited Loutro and many other beatiful places. Special thanks to person who instructed how to use boat and how to dock in Loutro! Very nice rental company personnel!

Easy Fun and beautiful. - So easy. So friendly and welcoming. The shoreline we explored was magical, clean, calm, serene and all around fantastic. The boat was clean and functioned in all the ways it is meant to.

A perfect day!... - A perfect day! A warm welcome and clear explanations. An easy grip even if mooring in a port is a bit stressful for beginners like us! We remember a very beautiful experience with family, sensations, beautiful landscape

Private boat hire - Great price. We hired for the whole day and motored up to the end of the peninsula. We hired the most basic boat. We anchored up twice in quiet coves. Snorkelling was amazing. We went for all day as didn’t want to be pushed for time. Staff were so helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend and use again. We only used 13 litres of fuel (pay extra for fuel).

Fantastic plan!! - It is a fantastic plan to enjoy a whole day in unique places on the coast of Crete. The boats are spotless and very safe. The ground crew is very friendly and provide all the elements and instructions to have safe navigation. There is parking for the car next to the office. We greatly enjoyed the day, choosing what to visit, where to disembark, and where to anchor for swimming in an incredibly transparent sea. Without any inconvenience disembarking for lunch in towns practically inaccessible by another route.

Engine problem - We had a problem with the engine and although we were near the port of Sfakia nobody came to help us. We drove back alone. And in the end they didn’t even apologise and they didn’t offer a refund. Although the problem with the engine did reduce the quality of our trip.

Mislead and overcharged - Lovely and helpful on the face of it but separated us during the briefing and told my wife we owed €70 more when it had already been paid! Helpful via email and confirmed that this was an “error” overcharging us and should be refunded, bank details shared but the money has never arrived and they have now ceased all contact after previously being quick to reply - essentially defrauded us out of €70 admitted to in writing and now refusing to refund us.
