We had the most amazing day with Dimitriou's and George sailing around the island. From the get go there were friendly, professional and so hospitable. Beers,wine,water,snacks and of corse Ouzo was available throughout. A great way to see Spinalonga beating the crowded boat tours. We stopped in a bay to snorkel followed by lunch made by the guys that was delicious (seafood pasta), with watermelon and grapes for dessert and a lovely local wine!

I would highly recommend doing this trip, totally worth it and our favourite day during our trip! Thanks Dimitriou & George - we will be back :)

We had a wonderful half day sailing trip with Captain Jim. We enjoyed traditional Cretan food in mesmerising small lagoons.

Two of us booked a 4 hour tour with Dimitris last week. It was amazing. He and Adonis were incredibly accommodating and the weather was cooperative. The views were spectacular and the water was clear and calm. The lunch Dimitris provided was delicious and beautifully presented. We felt like royalty on the beautiful and clean sailboat. Communication in English was easy and free flowing. We learned a lot. The water was cool when we anchored but it did not stop us from enjoying the refreshing sea.

I would HIGHLY recommend this excursion. It is totally worth your time and money.

We were taken out by DIMITRIOS and his fully qualified yacht masters skipper out into the bay and what an amazing day out. The boat is impeccably well maintained, we were accommodated to our individual tastes and with me having an interests in boats was shown anything and everything I asked.

The wine and food was excellent, chosen from local preferences and in traditional Cretan style they wanted to feed us as much as possible. Wind conditions weren’t in our favour but the team tried at all opportunities to get us sailing without the motor.

I would recommend this to anyone who is a keen sailor, someone who is interested in sailing and want a safe pair of hands or a someone that just wants a day out on a boat.

My girlfriend and I went out sailing for a half day and my gosh what a half day it was. The skipper and crew are immensely accommodating and professional. There is a perfect balance of professionalism and friendly chat.
Drinks and snacks were provided and fun was definitely had by all.
It certainly was a highlight of our holiday and considering other prices for a private day out sailing it is the best option.
Would definitely do it again.

30th of July 2017 last Sunday of my holiday the trip around Elounda-Plaka-Spinalonga on Captain Jim,a real delight.Four of us hired it for the day and very soon after leaving the marina we were swimming in a turquoise sea while Dimitris and Karin were preparing our mid-morning "raki break" or our lunch.Both delicious.The whole thing was done very professionally for us to feel safe but at the same time as if we were out with friends.

*Likely to sell out: Based on Viator’s booking data and information from the provider from the past 30 days, it seems likely this experience will sell out through Viator, a Tripadvisor company.
