The team was informative and went above and beyond to meet our needs. They were very pleasant and accommodating. They were flexible with time spent in each area in the caldera in order to meet our requests.

This was such an amazing experience!! We didn't book the trip in advance and were extremely lucky there was a vacancy on the only day we had available. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly at the booking office and the price for our private charter was a bargain in my opinion considering the experience and the boat was perfect. Capt Philip and 1st Mate George were sensational and we really enjoyed their company. This was a first class service all around and such a beautiful way to see Santorini.

An absolute MUST! It was the best day of our vacation. Class A experience.
The boat seemed newer than the photos online so we were pleasantly surprised.
The pick up from the hotel was right on time and when we got to the dock there was no waiting time whatsoever. I small boat picked us up to take us to the catamaran and off we went.
There were a couple spots we had in mind such as jumping off the platform at St. Nicolas and swimming into a cave. Captain Philip not only accomidated and added the stops, George took a ton of pictures for us!
George and Captain Philip were professional and knowledgeable about the island. They gave us space to do what we wanted and we never felt pressured to hurry up.
The food was a major added bonus. It was delicious!!!! George made everything from scratch.
It was romantic, fun and exciting!!! Would do again and again!!!

I will start this review letting the readers know I am a well traveled individual and book private boats often. I will start with the booking process, it was slow, but fine. I was surprised they wanted the full amount of booking to "confirm", I've never pre-paid before. Sometimes a deposit, but never the full amount. I will address this later.
The company sent us the instructions as to where the driver would pick us up at the port. They were aware we were arriving via cruise ship. There was never any mention that it would take 1-2 hours to get from the cruise ship port to the meeting point. Never. One would have to take a cable car with a line 1-1 1/2 hours or walk up the mountain (very difficult walk) Our trip included round trip transportation, which was not provided. They offered a water taxi at an additional charge of 140 Euro and assured us everything would be fine. It was very stressful and started the day off on the wrong foot, but the girl reassured me all would be fine and we confirmed what time we needed to be back to the ship port. We boarded the boat and started the trip.
There was very little interaction from the crew. I felt like I had to pull information out of them and they did not offer us any wine or beer, we had to ask. If you asked, they did provide, so ask!
The crew did prepare a wonderful lunch for us, we loved it and thank you! They reviewed the spots where we would go and told us to take our time, we had plenty of time.
I was shocked when we skipped the black sand beach and were back at the dock cutting our tour short by an hour 25% of the total time. They never mentioned cutting the tour short. We got off the ship and they sent us to a meeting spot for the driver (no water taxi) we waited in the hot sun (no shade) for 30 minutes for the driver, unacceptable.
I sent a very polite email asking to be pro-rated for the hour we didn't get especially because we also paid an additional 140 Euro for the water taxi, waited 30 minutes for our driver and they replied with "your cruise ship should compensate you for not explaining the process". It's nothing to do with the cruise, I booked an excursion through Santorini Yachting Club. They took zero responsibility, were not apologetic and ultimately didn't care about our experience. This is why they collect all the money up front.
The line for the cable car was too long by the time our driver had us there and we had to walk down. Very difficult walk with flip flops because we were not informed we would need hiking shoes. Slippery, uneven, rocky and steep with no shade or water.
I would not recommend this company, especially if you are arriving via cruise ship. I ultimately would not recommend to visit Santorini, the locals do not seem interested in the American tourists and there are many other islands that do, trust me, visit another island!

A sunset cruise off of Oia, whether private or semi-private, is a great experience. Hard to go wrong with the beautiful backdrop of the Caldera. If you are looking for a very private experience--with little interaction with your guides--on a beautiful motor-driven catamaran with door to door service, this trip is for you. Keep in mind you may not visit all of the places listed in the description (due to weather or other reasons) as was the case with our outing. I would have much preferred to have discussed that when we boarded the boat vs wondering why we weren't visiting all the places listed (and paid for) and needing to ask. We also had to introduce ourselves to the staff on the boat, which was a little awkward given that there were only six of us on the entire boat! I've rented a lot of private boat tours and generally experience that the staff loves to interact throughout vs keep to themselves. That said, the food was prepared with care right on the boat, the music was lovely (not run of the mill), and the staff was friendly enough. It just wasn't quite what we were expecting from the description nor other private boat experiences.

This company takes care of every detail to ensure a fabulous trip. Booking was easy with clear communication about pick up and review of options for the delicious lunch cooked on board. We were picked up at our hotel in Oia, driven in a clean luxury van to Amoudi Bay where we met our boat. Gorgeous catamaran with both shaded and sunny seating areas. Our captain was Philippe and our first mate was Georgias. Both were knowledgeable, personable and ready to ensure a fun day. We stopped at our first cove for a swim and they pointed out the best place to snorkel to view the colorful fish. The day proceeded at a leisurely pace with a nice stop mid day for a delicious lunch of fresh grilled pitas, salad, pasta, grilled chicken, pork and vegetables.
Dessert was a special yogurt with cherries. Weather was a little windy, but they knew the protected coves to visit for calm clear waters. We had a wonderful time. The boat had a restroom and plenty of room to spread out. Highly recommend this outing! Thanks for a great day!

We had an AMAZING private cruise of the Caldera. Highly recommend spending time seeing the Caldera from the water. We were on the Sea Breeze wonderfully captained by Savvina. Our sailor George cooked us a wonderful Greek meal. We stopped and swam in private locations uninterrupted by other boats. The day ended with an incredible sunset with our catamaran expertly positioned so the sunset seemed like a private showing for us! Thank you Savvina and George for a very memorable day in Santorini!

Went on a 1/2 day Caldera catamaran cruise with Captain Savvina last week on the 47 ft Sea Breeze. Crew was fantastic, extremely attentive, and super friendly. Also had a great play list. We put decision making in their hands, and instead of hitting the "hot spots" that would have been crowded with all the Cruise ships in port, we hit the surrounding smaller islands for a much for private experience. Got private time at the bay of Thirisia, Aspronisi (white island), and Palea Kameni (Old Burnt Island). Plenty of flexibility with how long we stayed at each spot. Towels provided. Great private swimming experience.
We went as a family of three and it was perfect, as there was plenty of room. Up front they had seating as well as a net over the water. The back had an inside and outside area with tables and seating.
Crew cooked up a great lunch which we had on the beach, with plenty of cold beer and wine. Great playlist for the entire ride.
Must do, would highly recommended. Captain Savvina is the best!

My catamaran experience in Santorini was absolutely amazing! From start to finish, everything was perfect. The captain and host made the trip extra special with their exceptional service and hospitality. The stunning views of Santorini's picturesque coastline and the crystal-clear waters were simply breathtaking. The catamaran itself was comfortable and well-maintained, providing a smooth and enjoyable ride. Whether lounging on the spacious deck or diving into the refreshing sea, every moment was filled with pure joy and relaxation. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. It truly exceeded all expectations and left me with unforgettable memories.
