The private cruise was an amazing experience. In the e-mail exchange before the event George was very helpful and gave me great tips and suggestions. On the day of the cruise, everything ran perfectly. The cruise was well-structured and engaging. George and his skipper took us to different interesting places, were we could swim and snorkel. Throughout the event, the crew was highly customer-oriented. They always made it clear that us having a great experience was their highest priority because they always asked our input for what we want and were available to answer questions and provide assistance. George and his skipper were very professional, easygoing and likable. If you want to take a private cruise that is highly customized to your wishes and liking I would highly recommend the provider "Athens by boat".
This was everyone in my family's (2 parents, 2 tweens and an almost 8 yr old) favorite tour we took in Athens. George made us feel like old friends. He was friendly, informative and engaging. The skipper was also kind and helpful. The wind conditions on the water would have made it difficult to sail to Poseidon's temple that day. Instead, we snorkeled, swam and paddle boarded in a beautiful spot closer to Athens proper. We even saw a sunken ship wreck. It was hard to get everyone out of the water after hours of fun. We then headed back to port and drove the scenic route along the water to Poseidon's Temple. George shared some interesting lesser known WWII history along the way and stopped at monument to Italian Soldiers that were killed by the Germans after their surrender at the end of WWII. We then went to the Temple of Poseidon at Sounio. It was extremely windy, but the views were breath taken. I would highly recommend this tour and will definitely do it or something else with Georg
