Arrive at the meeting point and experience a warm welcome on board with coffee, juice, and pastries. Head out to sea and relax on the sofas on the boat or sunbathe on the deck until arrival at Agistri Island.

Next, find yourself on the protected island of Moni, a small nature park with peacocks and deer as the only inhabitants. Enjoy lunch on the beach of Moni paired with Greek wine, beer, and soft drinks. Relax in the sun, swim, and snorkel in the turquoise water to admire the underwater world.

The historical island of Aegina is the final stop. Admire this picturesque port and learn of the pistachio production that the island is famous for. Explore at your own pace and visit the Temple of Apollo and the Temple of Athena Aphaia before heading back to shore.

Easy to book with clear instructions regarding transfers and the tour. Excellent communication and reminders via email and WhatsApp right up until the day of the trip. The driver we met for our pick ups was there before time, spoke English well and drove very nicely. The crew were lovely and knew exactly what they were doing. The timings given for each destination was well thought out allowing one to enjoy each island with sound advice on what to do and where to go without having to rush or be swamped by crowds of people arriving from a cruise or on the ferry. The food provided was delicious and the swimming out at sea was fantastic. I would highly recommend and cannot wait to bring all my family members to enjoy this trip next year. Thank you.

An amazing tour with an even more amazing crew. They were very welcoming and nice. The food was good, there was a small variety to choose from, also a vegetarian option. We really enjoyed the stop for swimming, there were goggles and pool noodles to get the most out of the experience. We‘re happy about going on this trip!

We went to 2 different islands which were lovely and stopped at a spot to swim and jump off the boat. The food was really good and all the staff/hosts were very happy and made the experience memorable! Mohammad, Pavlos and the cook (couldn’t remember her name) were the best crew we could have hoped for and made every part of the trip enjoyable!
