Amazing day trip! - We really enjoyed our day checking out Ithaca! We love that it was semi private, only a few other couples. Lots of places to snorkel, swim and the food on board was amazing! The crew was so nice and inviting.

A fantastic way to celebrate our wedding anniversary - From the moment I contacted Vangelis yesterday, until the moment that we disembarked this evening we were made to feel welcomed and looked after so well! We were out for about 6 hours and were treated to 3 stops, where we were able to swim, snorkel and also make use of the Paddle Boards that were onboard. While at stop 2 we were also provided with a lovely lunch from the crew which left me feeling very full! Totally can’t fault anything! And I know if I am ever back in Kefalonia I will be booking the 9 hour trip! Thanks for making our wedding anniversary so special today!

Fantastic day sailing the Ionian Sea - Thoroughly recommend this luxury day out sailing the Ionian Sea. Beautiful yacht with a super friendly skipper and first mate who told us about the places we visited and who made wonderful canapés and lunch and supplied us with a constant flow of wine or beer or soft drinks. The stop-offs were stunning - three incredible coves only accessed by the sea, so secluded and quiet. We had around 45 minutes at two places to swim, snorkel, paddle board or just swim ashore and sunbath, around an hour or more at our lunch stop, where we swam first then had lunch aboard the yacht. Super fun and utterly relaxing.

Wonderful day trip 😎 - The trip was wonderful. The boat offers enough shade, but also space for sun worshippers. Getting in and out when swimming very easy. The three coves were fantastic. Also seen while snorkeling many fish. Crew was very attentive and super nice. Food and drink was good and sufficient (soft drinks, water, beer, wine) You should tip for the service at the end of the tour (we were the only ones!) Highly recommended!

A must-do activity in Agia Effimia - Amazing day to very special coves and the clearest water ever seen. Lovely friendly captain, so relaxing and delicious food. The boat is very well equipped and comfy to ride on all day. Well worth the price.

Highly recommend! - Great day on the sea, stopping at 3 beautiful bays to swim, each totally different and water stunning in all. Snacks, lunch, melon and drinks were all superb. Welcoming and efficient Captain, friendly fellow passengers and stunning swim spots made this an outstanding day.
