It was an absolutely wonderful trip with our family. The guys from Yako took us to the greatest places with warm water and unforgettable views. The crew was super friendly and hospitable. We had a feeling that we came to visit our friends that were waiting for us for a very long time ☺️ If you are planning your boat trip don’t think too much! It’s a must have here. Yako Sailing will definitely help you to keep great memories after it. Thank you 😊

A 3 day escape (6-7-8 June 2020) from the routine of everyday life. Beautiful beaches,unique land scapes,delicious delicacies, enjoyable company, satisfactory services, inside and outside the sailing boats!
The journey started from Nautical club of Thessaloniki and passed from several coasts along the first leg of Chalkidiki.
Spending the nights in Harbour of N. Moudania and N. Skioni where we took a walk and tried the local food.
3 Days full of sun, sea, diving and swimming in the crystal waters of Chalkidiki, enjoying the company of the crew and having real fun with the other guys on the boats.
Don't waste your time and grab the opportunity to live an unforgettable experience with yako sailing!!!

Sailing away with friends and people whom I met in the yacht was a unique experience. I stayed 2 nights in fafos yacht, while exploring Halkidiki. Mister Yannis and Kostas were the ideal leaders to provide us with everything we may needed. The trip was full of adventure, beautiful landscapes, crystal clear waters and partying. The interior rooms were very comfy and clean too. I really enjoyed the lunch provided and the warm atmosphere among us. Sunsets in the sea was the peak point. I would definitely recommend yako to everyone.

We took a 3-night trip from Nikiti and had the best time. Manos, our skipper, was excellent and a pleasure to spent the time with - he knew all the best places to take us. I recommend staying the second night at the port of Mirragio hotel so you can have a decent shower. We were 2 couples and the size of the boat felt enough for that. Highly recommend as an alternative way to experience and explore Halkidiki.

Enjoyed a wonderful sailing experience with Yako Sailing. We were a bit late getting there, but that wasn't a problem for our skippers who also happened to be the owners of the company. The winds were low, so we used the motor most of the day, but it was quiet and the perfect pace for relaxing. The boat was steady and none of our party of 10 got sea sick. Whether we were hanging out with the skippers, lazing on the front of the ship or swimming in the blue blue ocean, it made for the most fun and most relaxing day of the trip. We traveled to multiple coves and beaches that are inaccessible by land so the experience was very private. At one point we ended up near a place we had already been and the captains happily changed course to bring us somewhere new. I was impressed by their flexibility during the whole experience. Snacks and drinks including beer and wine (made by Kostas himself - one of the owners) were made available throughout the trip. I would recommend bringing lunch to save having to stop for a few hours mid day. You really don't want to miss a moment of boat time. Toward the end of the day on our return run to the port the winds picked up a little and we were able to raise sail and let the wind take us home. Janis - the video you made and sent following the end of the trip was a special touch. Thank you Janis and Kostas for a wonderful day and for doing what you do. I hope to be so lucky to return one day and join you on your boat again.

A perfect day on the sea hosted by the warm and friendly Yannis. A beautiful sailing boat, sea like a mill pond, swims in secluded coves, amazing lunch on Sithonia, and just the 4 of us plus Yannis to chat about all things Greece and life. Couldn’t recommend highly enough and good value for a private boat.

Yako Sailing provided us an amazing experience and a unique chance to see Thessaloniki and its surroundings from a new point of view! This is definitely a must-try if you are in the area! The boats are great and spacious, the crew is super fun and friendly and the whole experience is amazing! The boats are fully equipped with kitchen (fridge, oven, stove, coffee machine), bedrooms and bathrooms. They also offer tours around Chalkidiki and special boat trips so definitely check that out! I can't wait for my next trip with Yako Sailing!

Just as the pictures, as fantastic as they are, cannot do justice to the beauty we encountered, I cannot find the words to express the wonderment of our trip with Yako sailing. We wanted to have a special day and we got more than we expected. John and Thomas not only treated us to some beautiful sights but treated us like family. We laughed, ate, drank and talked together as friends over the course of a day we wish had never ended. We left ourselves completely open to the experience they saw fit and they certainly delivered from location to soundtrack for the day ending in style with old blue eyes as we pulled into the marina. They clearly put a lot of thought and heart into the business and it shows. Thank you once again for an unforgettable day.

Everything was excellent, Fafos 2 is in top condition with every necessary equipment and many extras. Also plenty of basic supply was available. Yannis and Kostas are very professional but also easy going, and they gave us very suitable recommendations for the trip. The skipper was extremely competent and well-mannered, and great company too. Also the marina (where the boat was moored and returned) in Miraggio is a one of the best in the country. 100% recommendation.
