Really great way to see Paros and the surrounding islands! Super relaxing and enjoyable. Our captain, Panagiotis, was incredibly knowledgeable and also very flexible. He even dropped us off at the port later than our original end time so we could make it to our ferry and didn’t have to wait around at the port. We learned a lot about Greece while relaxing in the sun and clearest waters we’ve ever seen!! Definitely recommend.

Activity done in May 2024. Go for it, a cruise in the incredible turquoise blue waters. Swimming places with magnificent seabeds. The host lends masks and chips. Rina's cave is a must-see. Inside it is magnificent. The village of Koufonisia and its incredible turquoise beach leaves us in awe. The boat team, adorable, we were immediately put at ease. Thank you for this memorable day.

Great trip! I booked very last minute after another tour cancelled and worried a bit that it would fall short, it didn't. The boat was great, the crew lovely, and the food fantastic.

Awesome activity with awesome and kind people. I highly recommend.

Very nice trip, friendly staff and good food :) I recommend
