We have just returned from a family trip on board. Dimitris and Konstantina our skipper and host were amazing ! Nothing was too much trouble for the crew and the boat was perfect for us. Dimitri took us to beautiful coves and bays and worked tirelessly to make sure everything was safe but also fun for our children. The quality of the food provided was outstanding and we could not recommended Dimitri highly enough to others. We will definitely be returning for another trip, more to see with Dimintri and we cannot wait. 11 out of 10.
