The catamaran was spotless and very comfortable. There was plenty of space despite there being 10 of us that day. The swimming spots were wonderful! No snorkel gear but we brought goggles so it didn't really matter. Lunch was very tasty and the staff were incredibly warm and helpful. I have been on trips like this all over the world and this was one of the best!

I was fortunate enough to do a private yoga session with master Vidhi. He was amazing! Very patient with me walking me through the poses. My favorite part was doing the poses. We also did breath work. (Which I was awful at, who would have thought I couldn’t figure out how to inflate my stomach when I breathed in!) at the end we did meditation followed up by a prayer. He told me it sometimes gets emotional. I was like yeah right I’m not a very emotional person. Well guess what...I got choked up at the end. I highly recommend him. He had me smiling multiple times as you can see in my photos he took while I practiced. Thank you again for a wonderful experience!

This private boat tour is ideal for small or bigger groups of people, families, couples, etc. (between 6 and 10 people).

This can include (optionally) Madouri, Scorpios, Meganisi, Kefalonia, Ithaca, Paxos islands and the famous Lefkada west coast beaches like Porto Katsiki, Egremni and Gialos (according to the weather forecast). Obviously it is impossible to visit all the spots, so try to fix a good time schedule in order to focus on what you want to see. It is also a nice activity to fill up your day and get memories as there is a photo shooting on board during the day. After the tour, you will receive 20 professional digital pictures from us as a memory of this great time. Local wines for wine tasting, fruits, cold bottled water and local tastes included.

My son, daughter-in-law and I had booked a 14-day private tour of Athens, Crete, Santorini, Milos and Naxos with Private Tours Greece from May 1-14, 2020 and made a 30% down payment by credit card on 02/06/2020. All interactions with Private Tours Greece went smoothly and were professional and friendly. Then, due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and my son's illness, on 03/13/2020, well ahead of the deadline for a fully-refundable cancellation, I asked Private Tours Greece to release all reservations it had made on our behalf, but to hold my deposit, in the hope that we might be able to reschedule our trip later in 2020 or in the spring of 2021. Private Tours Greece complied with my request and issued a credit voucher for the down payment I had made. As the pandemic continued to surge and Greece remained closed to visitors from the United States, on 4/17/2021, after essentially extending an interest-free loan to Private Tours Greece for over a year, I requested that my down payment be fully refunded and credited to the same credit card account to which it had been charged. Thereupon, Private Tours Greece staff claimed that the request for refund had been "forwarded" ... as it turned out later, to Alpha Bank. Nothing happened for a week. I then engaged in repeated e-mail exchanges with Private Tours Greece staff, only to be subjected to a stream of equivocations, obfuscations of the facts, and invalid excuses, including a claim that Private Tours Greece was doing me a favor by agreeing to a refund because the Greek government had allegedly given it the option to hold my funds indefinitely. I then contacted the general manager of the company, who sent me what purported to be a Greek language request to Alpha Bank (that I was unable to read) to issue the refund, along with further invalid excuses, never responding to my complaint that Private Tours Greece was in breach of its contractual obligation to issue a full refund of my down payment, not to mention doing the honorable thing, i.e., issue an immediate refund from an account he controlled directly, rather than blaming Alpha Bank for the delay by claiming that it "required" 10-15 "working" days to complete the request. Even that outlandishly ridiculous period has now expired! A complaint I submitted to Alpha Bank has received no response to date. It has now been nearly a full month since my refund request of 4/17/2021, and I may have to initiate legal action against Private Tours Greece ... with all the complexities and additional outlays and delays that would involve ... in order to reclaim my funds. The lesson to be learned here is that Private Tours Greece cannot be counted upon to honor its promises and contractual commitments. If there is any chance at all that you may have to cancel your trip, STAY AWAY!

Theo booked lunch for us at a local taverna which was also spectacular. The cruise was our highlight of our time in Greece and the boat, drinks, and snacks were perfect.
