Amazing Yacht Trip - You Must Try It! - We had an amazing time on the S/Y Oasis. It’s our first time in Santorini and getting to exposure to all of the beautiful beaches and spots around Santorini was made possible by Captain Manoles, Panos, George, and Matthew. The crew was extremely hospitable, kind and both me and my wife were extremely happy with their service. Demetrius was great too as our driver. The food was delicious and the spots where we got to swim in the ocean was memorable. The sunset was beautiful as well. We will definitely be back the next time we’re here.

Memory Sail - The experience was nothing like we had before . It was a fantastic journey . We met the wise captain Akis and his beautiful daughter Savvina . We met some families and made new friends on the cruise . The crew was extremely helpful and courteous and made the experience memorable forever for me and my son . The captains daughter, a charming young lady Savvina took her time to help everyone on board and was so nice to take pictures with us and for us as well. She was such a joy to talk to and a delight company who made the trip more enjoyable. She also cooked for us and prepared a delicious Greek salad. The hospitality and the charm of both father and daughter was unmatched with anything we had seen before . We truly felt like we were family while on board . You don’t get that on any kind of cruise excursions. We highly recommend this cruise in particular and no other cruise if you want a memory to last you forever. Last but not least our driver was an extremely friendly and intelligent and interesting gentleman who shared great stories with us and made the trip so pleasant . I was late a few minutes and had forgotten my credit card but he was so patient and courteous that he waited till I obtain my wallet from my room . He was an exceptional driver and I hope his company praises him and appreciate him by offering him a nice raise . He truly is one of kind and he deserves far better . He was even so nice with children on board and was treating them as his own . This is above and beyond anything I have seen . It was a pleasure to travel with him and I would definitely request him again next time :) Thank you 🙏 everyone for such an unforgettable memory 🥰🥰🥰

Perfect Way to Experience Santorini - The Oasis boat team were so incredibly friendly, organized, and professional. The cruise was the most enjoyable way to spend a day in Santorini, seeing all the sights from the breezy water with plenty of opportunities to jump in for a refreshing swim. A must-do when visiting the island, and a great value with lunch and transportation to and from the boat launches included.

Good food, cold drinks, and beautiful waters - We had a great time on this day cruise on the Catamaran. The food was great, drinks were cold, and the Aegean Sea was refreshing to swim in. We were referred to this tour by our hotel Cava Bianco. We highly recommend this experience.

Fantastic catamaran experience - We had an excellent day and experience which will be a long lasting memory. The crew were fantastic and chatted about the history of the island and calderas, pointing out places of interest along the way. We swam in the hot springs and different coves but to surpass it all was the most excellent lunch which surpassed expectations.
