Above and Beyond - Although the day started with a snafu with the pick up, the way in which the company responded really won me over. They went above and beyond to salvage my day and make sure I got to experience as much of the cruise as possible. Every single person on staff was aware of what happened with the pickup and they personally greeted me at each stage of the rest of the day. I would definitely travel with these guys again. They showed me exceptional customer service and true hospitality.

Great day cruising the islands! - The crew and guide (Anna) were wonderful! They went above and beyond to make sure we all had a great time. We loved the relaxing and incredibly scenic cruise, the delicious lunch and drinks and the tours of the islands. The bike ride, the swim in the ocean and the pistachio tasting were our favorites. Traveled with my 19 1/2 year old daughter and we definitely recommend this trip:).

Relaxing day on the water - We thoroughly enjoyed our trip. The transfers from our hotel were well organised in a modern minibus - first pickup was about 50 minutes before the boat was due to sail. The boat was full, but not overcrowded. There was a mix of normal seating near the front, back and interior, and sun bed style loungers on the deck in the middle which were very comfy. The staff were all very helpful and friendly including Anna (tour guide) and Panos (hope I remembered his name right). In the morning there was coffee and pastries as we sailed for the first stop on Agistri which is a small fishing island. Some people hired bikes for ten euros to ride to the other side, others wandered up into the village for a drink, and we strolled along the harbour and coast feeding a few of the local cats and enjoying the sun. After 90 minutes we set off for a smaller island where people swam in the sea before lunch was served. The buffet food was some of the nicest I ate on my trip - there was a lamb stew and roast potatoes that were *so* good! There was enough to go round and some people had second helpings. Drinks were beers, white wine or the usual soft options. They did eventually run out on the return leg, but I’d had enough by then. It’s not a “drink yourself silly party boat”, but neither was it two drinks and done. Last stop was on Aegina which is a fair bit bigger. Some people went shopping in the town or to a waterside bar. A few of us went to the nearby archaeology museum which has the extensive ruins of a settlement and temple overlooking the sea. Only four euros which was a bargain. On the return journey there was more time to relax, chat, read or listen to the music (again, this was not a party boat with drunken dancing) before getting in to harbour around 6:20. A very nice end to our week in Athens.

The Saronic Geek Islands - What a beautiful way to discover Greece. From onboarding, to breakfast, snacks, all you can drink beverages (including adult) it was a magical day spent sailing the beautiful Mediterranean. Oh …did I mention…the plunge in the blue waters!! The best day ever…don’t miss this amazing opportunity!!

Sailing without Sails! - Most memorable was swimming in the Saronic Gulf! I wanted to sail, but unfortunately, there were no sails!

Viator failed badly on this one - This was not the crews fault. However, I arranged for pickup at our hotel for an added cost and was sent a confirmation email. We were travelling from Canada. I was NOT sent an email informing me of a last day change of plans that I was to go to a new meeting place. I received a phone call 25 minutes past our pickup time asking me where I was, that they were waiting for me and my guest. We had to rush to get an Uber. This cost me a 30 minute taxi lift as well as a shortened day cruise. I was assured we would be returned to our hotel at the end of the day. On our return, once again we were dropped off too far from the hotel to walk, so we had another taxi cost. When I booked this tour I was told I would be picked up at our hotel for an added cost which I accepted. Viator was very unprofessional in handling this tour. There was no red wine to be seen. The sandwiches did not have any butter on the bread. It was like a fast thrown together picnic lunch.

Cruise Catastrophe - I have never taken a cruise in such poor condition. We got plucked just as it should be. A dream program and tempting photos but we had none of that. On the agenda is disastrous weather, the company is not canceling the cruise so in the end what is happening? Everyone is sick on the boat, we can't visit any islands as planned, only a stop in a small village where there is nothing on a 10 hour cruise!!! Crossings in the endless storm, wind and cold as hell. The company which refuses to compensate us more than 20% given the ticket prices and the absolutely disastrous conditions we had. This is called simply being pigeonholed. I simply do not recommend this company at all. One hell of a cruise. What was supposed to be the best day of the vacation was in fact the worst and most disappointing
