Hydra is so beautiful, Poros a pit stop, and Aegina had an uncrowned temple and delicious pistachio gelato.

We thought this trip was AMAZING!!! They did such a wonderful job! Spiros went above and beyond to help us, and his advice helped us find some great places! There was also a delicious lunch and fun Greek dancing. Overall, this tour was a 10/10!

Full description

Explore the Saronic Islands of Poros, Hydra, and Aegina on this day trip from Athens. Cruise over the azure waters of the Mediterranean sea and have free time on each island. Savor a mouth-watering buffet lunch as you sail.
After a morning transfer by bus from Athens to the port, hop on board a cruise ship and be invited to one of its spacious open decks. From the deck, you’ll have a great vantage point for enjoying views of the Greek coast.

The first stop is the island of Poros, the smallest of the 3 islands you’ll visit on the tour. It’s separated from the Peloponnese by a narrow strait. Have ample time to explore the island and once you’re on board again you’ll be served a delicious lunch as the ship sail towards Hydra.

Take in the stunning views as you enter the port of Hydra and see the cove that at one time served as a shelter for pirates. From the open decks, marvel at the dramatic landscapes of this island.

There will be time for you to explore the narrow, stone-paved streets of the island on foot, or by saddled donkey, which is the traditional mode of transportation. If you choose to go by foot, you can walk along the old seaside promenade and perhaps stop at some of the small shops.

When you return to the ship, the captain heads for Aegina which is the largest of the 3 islands on the tour.

Apart from its beautiful harbor, there are numerous interesting sites that you’ll have a chance to discover on your own. Alternatively, you can join an excursion to the Temple of Aphaia at an additional cost.

Return to your cruise-boat and enjoy your one-hour sail back to the port. Disembark and finish your trip (if option selected) in Athens.

  • Pickup and drop-off at select hotels and port pickup points (if option selected)
  • Sightseeing cruise

A well organised trip and good food. However, I think the stop at Poros was unnecessary because we only had 30 mins so you cannot get away from the ship. We only visited a few souvenir shops. Hydra and Aegina was great as we had time to explore.
