Unforgettable Cruise experience - This cruise experience is my favourite so far I’ve been picked up at my place at the exact time. The route was exactly like I wished for. You got many good explanation from the guide on board who speak multiple languages. this is the perfect cruise if you like to get deep in the secrets of Santorini and the volcano and the beautiful island of Thirassia.

Volcanic Island Cruise - Sadly my gf and I couldn't do the hike to the volcano or the swimming because I had hurt my t-band muscle and could walk up steep inclines yet and she had twisted her ankle in Thessaloniki before we got to Santorini. But did get to meet some interesting people see the spots and the great views from the ship. Also, learned a little more of the history of the sea, volcano and sulfer hot springs and did get to walk around Thirassia.

An amazing trip with an unusual experience - Swimming around a volcano 👍🏼 and feeling the hot sulphur air from a hole was incredible. Nice boat and staff

Great value - Our guide was very knowledgeable, each of the events was amazing & I loved every minute. The one hiccup was at the pick up. When they called my name to board the bus, I assumed they would also call my husband's name & he almost got left behind. They only call the name of the person who bought the tickets. But thanks to the bus driver who let my husband on before taking off!

Lovely day out - We all loved this trip. The volcano hike is quite hard going, very slippy in places but worth it for the views. The swim in the thermal springs was good although they aren’t hot, just a few degrees warmer than the sea. Stopping at Thirassa was nice but too long unless you want another 20/25 min hike up a very steep path to get to the village. There are only a handful of places to eat along the shore and it isn’t a beach, just rocks so I don’t think you could swim in the sea personally although a couple of people did. On the way back we sailed right up close to Oia and the tour guide explained everything we could see which was great. We sailed along the coast all the way back. This says it’s a 6hr tour but we were collected close to our hotel at 8.45am and were dropped off at just after 5pm. I would recommend it

A crowded boat but a great day out - Apart from the boat being pretty crowded everything else was as expected and hoped for. Pick up on time and good communications.

Cancel tour wrongly and false inclusions - Firstly the tour originally scheduled for 23 April 2024 was cancelled stating weather reasons, which i dont think was the true reason. Then they scheduled it for next day, which we agreed. Then in the booking, hotel pick up was included, but they denied it and called me to bus stop which was 50 minutes walking from my hotel. This is not how professional company should behave, if you say hotel pick up is included, then you should provide it.

Bad experience - I didn’t get to attend my tour. When I booked I paid for the tour with pick up option. I selected to be picked up at my hotel. A day before they send me a pick location which was 30 minutes away from my hotel. I tried to contact the tour company but they didn’t respond back until the day of the tour with “I’m sorry you missed you pick up time” I explain to them that I didn’t had transportation and I needed to be picked up but all they responded back was we can reschedule. I agreed to reschedule for next day and I never heard back from them.
