One of the best vacations we’ve had and we’ll definitely be doing it again. We had the most amazing time and our captain Panos was truly brilliant. Read full reviewReviewed on 26 Jul 2026 by Eve Brewster

We especially loved mooring overnight in a quieter beach and having great food in a restaurant there. Our teenagers loved the swimming, paddle boarding and snorkelling. Read full reviewReviewed on 27 Jun 2026 by Naeem Siraj
Incredible adventure for the family. This trip appeals to all generations and everyone had the most amazing time. The two boats are owned by local enthusiasts whose passion is obvious. We will certainly be going back! Read full reviewReviewed on 24 Aug 2025 by James Denton

This is a wonderful experience to see the extraordinary beauty of the Ionian islands and the Ionian sea, in an adventurous and relaxed way. We all got so much from this trip and everyone - from aged 8 to 78! - had an incredible time. Read full reviewReviewed on 15 Aug 2025 by J. Manuel Perez Mato
This vacation was fantastic. It has surpassed all our expectations. Everything went according to plan. The skipper was by all means helpful, kind, patient and doing everything that was possible for making our stay more enjoyable. He knew all the coves, bays, winds in the region, etc. , and arranged the plans of each day accordingly. Read full reviewReviewed on 10 Aug 2025 by Pernille Coulthard

Once in a life time. We have children 17,15 and 10 and it met all their needs. Don’t think about it - do it Read full reviewReviewed on 02 Sep 2024 by Anna Williamson
Where to start?! I was expecting the beautiful beaches and charming villages, however stopping the boat in the middle of the ocean and swimming in 120m deep dark sapphire water was truly special. This trip was a lifetime highlight. I had high expectations and they were exceeded. Read full reviewReviewed on 30 Aug 2024 by AMANI LESLIE
10/10 Honestly it was genuinely the best family vacation we have ever had. We have never been sailing before and so wasn't sure what to expect. Panos patiently answered all my questions and gave us support before, during and after the trip. Read full reviewReviewed on 22 Aug 2024 by William Tuff
Great with the yacht in full sail. Elias was a great host, offering advice and booking restaurants for us in the busier villages. Also lots of insight into local history and politics, and a good laugh. Read full reviewReviewed on 06 Aug 2024 by Chris Ruark
Excellent hospitality whilst sailing in an exceptionally beautiful part of Greece. Panos and Ilias were patient, considerate and friendly hosts, intent on sharing the best beaches, secret swimming spots and beautiful harbours. They went out of their way to ensure that we had the best experience possible. Read full reviewReviewed on 05 Aug 2024 by Olivia Porcaro

Excellent! We all had a wonderful time... The route was well planned to take in as much as possible in the time we had. The boat was well equipped with plenty of space in the cabins and communal areas. Above all our skipper Paris was so friendly, professional and a mine of information he helped to make the trip so memorable. Read full reviewReviewed on 25 Aug 2022 by Laura Harvey

As the pioneers of responsible tourism, we've screened this (and every) vacation so that you can travel knowing we've worked to maximise the benefits of your vacation to local people and places, and minimise any negative impacts.
Planet
We have been sailing and exploring the marine system of the Ionian Sea since 2009 and have therefore developed knowledge and experience of both the beauty and also the threats. This way we have seen the problems that human activities create to the sea. We have tried and done our best to minimise our impact and reduce our energy demands by sailing as much as possible, using environmental friendly materials, minimise use of single use plastic, minimise waste and use renewable ways to generate electricity.- We eat local . Almost everything comes from local producers and farms. We use and strongly suggest season products.
- We sail as much as possible and plan trip always to be wind favoured.
- We mainly use solar power from our P/V system.
- We encourage reasonable fresh water use for showers and washing. All the loads on board are designed efficintly for low power consumption ( eg. LED bulbs).
- We have a special drinkable water tank (BISPHENOL A FREE / PHTHALATE - FREE ) , carbon filter to avoid using plastic bottles onboard for drinking (big issue on yachting) .
In general sailing life itself consists in low energy consumption way of living . That's the spirit that we want to commune with our guests.
People
We recommend local and family-run restaurants which we have been visiting for a long time. Local guides are employed for excursions when needed, to visit an archaeological site or for a guided hike or for other aquatic activities or even wine tasting.Popular similar vacations
