A 100% recommendation! We were given excellent equipment. The wetsuit kept us afloat, allowing us to fully concentrate on the underwater world, and protected us against the sun and cold (I personally get cold quickly in the water). We saw many different fish, sea urchins, sponges and one starfish. The guide (John) was an absolute gem! He is very considerate of every participant’s needs. Communication and pick-up/drop-off went perfectly smoothly. We felt safe and comfortable every second and the photos and videos he took are a wonderful memory.

We really enjoyed this trip. The pirate ship was great and the staff were wonderful. It was nice to see that a lot of things were done to engage young children. The beaches were amazing and beautiful. We really appreciated that umbrellas were provided on the beach and there was a small boat to transport personal belongings to and from the ship. Lunch tasted good and was a normal size portion. Only suggestion would be to serve a drink with lunch. Thank you for a great day!

I feel so lucky to have met our tour guide, George. I am not exaggerating when I say he went above and beyond for me! The tour itself was amazing. Great information about Halkidiki, we learned how the families produce their olives at the Olive Groves, we relaxed on the beaches and enjoy the beautiful sunset! George I cannot, thank you enough for all of the information and guidance you’ve given us for our trip! I highly recommend this trip!
