Great trip! - We loved this boat tour. The captain was great. He let our girls (7 and 10) steer the boat, and they loved snorkeling in the cave and jumping off the cliff. Highly recommend.

Loved this tour - My family of 4 absolutely loved this boat tour. It was affordable, authentic & beautiful. We saw some incredible scenery, heard a little history, & got to swim in a sea cave. Yiannis served us a lovely afternoon tea made from local produce (& the best tomato I’ve eaten in my life!). Highly recommend!

A Must-Do Experience in Naxos! - We had an absolutely wonderful experience on our boat tour! Captain Yannis shared fascinating stories and history as we explored the nearby islands, and we stopped at the stunning Rina’s Cave for a refreshing swim. The crew captured amazing photos of us — professional shots on shore and fun GoPro pictures in the water. On the relaxing ride back, we enjoyed delicious snacks and wine while taking in the beautiful views. Everyone was so friendly, attentive, and accommodating. This tour was a highlight of our trip — highly recommended!

Exceptional! - This was a fantastic tour and was our favorite part of our time in Naxos. It is a great way to see the southern part of the island. The coastline is beautiful; the cave and cliff jumping were very fun. The guide explained history along the way and went above and beyond taking pictures which were then emailed to us. Everything was well thought out and relaxing. Highly recommend!

Amazing Trip! - This trip was the best day of our holiday. The drive down to Panermos over the mountains was beautiful, if a little nerve-wracking on occasion! The scenery is stunning and Yannis was a brilliant captain, telling us interesting bits of information about the local area. Rina's cave is fascinating, and it was great fun jumping in from the cliffs. The salad onboard at the end was delicious, as was the locally produced wine, and the added bonus of receiving photos and videos a few days later was great. Yannis and his family were so warm and welcoming, and the trip was so relaxing, I'd absolutely do it again if we ever go back to Naxos. Great value for money too. Just be aware that as you reach Panermos, the paved road suddenly ends and turns into a rough dirt track, so be careful if you're driving a hire car!

An experience not to be missed - This was a perfect morning. We had been concerned about the strong winds elsewhere on the island but the southern point was relatively protected and the water was calm enough for easy swimming. The captain and his family were so lovely. The boat was beautiful and well maintained. We travelled across the coast and stopped for a swim at Rina Cave. On the way back we stopped for another snorkel in the crystal clear waters. The captain took photos and even let the girls steer the boat. Would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone.
