Overall rating
We had an amazing time on Anima. The trip was far better than we had imagined. We did a three day charter from Athens which went perfectly. The boat was a good size and easily fit our family of 5. Captain Nico and co-captain Nico were fun, friendly and very attentive. They made our kids' first sailing trip a wonderful experience. We can't wait to come back.
apologize for the delay in leaving my review, as I was traveling from one country to another. The experience was absolutely wonderful, and the crew on the boat were very comfortable, amazing, and extremely helpful. We truly enjoyed our trip, and it was even more special thanks to this fantastic team. A beautiful journey, great atmosphere, and an amazing crew indeed💐💐💐💐💐
Fantastic, fully recommend! Great communication throughout the booking. There were 6 of us from the UK (in our 20’s & 30’s). We booked a day trip 10-1800 but lasted longer than this. As a larger boat was available they kindly upgraded us, we opted for the skipper too. Sailed to Aegina, stopped in a couple of bays and a short 1-hour stop at the port to see the local village. We opted for paddle boards which I fully recommend and had our own snorkelling equipment. Onboard there is everything, a large fridge, plastic glasses, toilet roll, napkins, kitchen roll, beach towels, it’s very clean.Thank you so much to Nikos and Captain Chris! Victoria
All was great! Skipper Stelios was very friendly and accommodative!
My friends and I had a wonderful day on board ! Great organisation with Nikos and smooth communication. We went to the beautiful Aigina island (4h cruise in total). Thank you to Stelios for making this day truly special!
We've just got back from a really wonderful trip where we sailed around some of the Saronic Islands close to Athens. We had a five night trip on Anima with Captain Christos and Nikos assisting. We are a couple from New Zealand. We had a lot of fun and really enjoyed our time with Nikos and Christos. Everything went very well right from initial contact whilst enquiring from home with information and clear communication all of which turned out to be very accurate. Nikos who coordinated all of this remained available and supportive to us over and above including collecting us from our Athens base on the day we set out as there was an Uber strike that day. I really can't say enough for how supportive he was - including taking last minute phone calls from me. We stayed at four separate islands over the time we were there - the highlight for us being Hydra but everything had something different to offer and we enjoyed it all. Most days there was a stop for swimming. One day we elected to simply stay in port (in Hydra) partly due to weather (early in the season in May) and that suited us perfectly. Christos and Nikos had a lot of local knowledge and knowledge of local networks and that really helped with practical things like getting births at marinas which you can't always take for granted in some busy and sought-after ports. I've done a little sailing including hiring some vessels in the Bay of Islands in New Zealand and in Australia but don't have a formal qualification and know my skills are very much at the beginner level. I'd kind of entertained trying to hire a bareback in Greece but realised I didn't have the skillset to do this and in fact I believe you need formally-recognised qualifications to hire and sail in Europe so it was never going to be an option. But, the reason I say all of this is that if you are interested in sailing in Greece but don't have the skills or confidence to manage it yourself then this type of charter can be an excellent option. It was great having the thoroughly professional, competent, thoughtful, supportive and fun team of Christos and Nikos on board with us. I know my partner Tanya who had not so much sailing experience also had a lot of confidence and time for them. It was a really magic six days with just the best people and a really professional operation. We would come back and have no hesitation recommending Nikos and his team. Thanks for a brilliant experience.
We had a really great trip with Nikos and the captain. We enjoyed their company and everything went really smoothly. They tried their best to give us the maximum experience in only 2 days.
We went on a one-day sailing trip with swimming. Everything went according to plan. I can recommend it.
Seven of us went sailing on the Anima. We had an incredible time during our 5 days checking out the Saronic islands. The boat sleeps 7 at most with 2 people on couches and it can get quite hot for sleeping and there isn't a whole lot of space, as to be expected on a boat. Other than that I have nothing but amazing things to say about the experience and about Nikos and our captain Stelios. Both were so helpful and did what they could to make sure we had the best experience possible. We are an easy going group of people so having to row a dingy to shore at one of the islands cause there wasn't space to dock was more of a fun experience and adventure rather than a problem. We loved every part of this experience and cannot recommend it enough. Thank you so much Niko and Stelios!
Yesterdays boat day was amazing. Great service by the crew and very nice traditional greek food with some good wine. Would 100% recommend!
The best!!
We sailed with Nikos' boat and captain Giorgos. Everything was amazing, the boat is perfect, clean, comfortable, they even brought us some towels and they always took care of the children so that they could enjoy themselves to the maximum. The sailing was very calm and we were able to enjoy it. The children enjoyed the boat very much too, both the stops for a dip and the sailing. I recommend 100% to sail with Nikos.
Great experience, with highly professional people
We had a wonderful time with my friends on Nikos boat. We spend 4 days on a cruise to Saronikos islands and everything was great. Our skipper Thomas helped us to enjoy our time. The communication with Nikos was also great and the experience worth the money. Also Nikos cousin helped us on the 1st and the last day at check in and at the checkout and make us feel very welcome. I will book it again the next Summer! Thank you guys for everything!
My family of five, including three young children, loved sailing with Nikos and Captain Christos for a two day sailing trip. While the wind did not comply (too much of it!), Nikos and Christos charted a safe path to Aegina, where we stopped in several calm bays to swim and eat along the way. We would highly recommend them, especially for families. They operate a safe and secure boat, and prioritize the safety of all passengers. They also took good care of us by providing a paddle board and snorkeling gear for our use in the bays. We give them a 10 out of 10!!
I recently had the pleasure of embarking on an unforgettable sailing adventure, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. We rented our boat from Nikos, and Thomas was our exceptional skipper. The experience was nothing short of spectacular! Our group consisted of three guys, and each of us had our own cabin, providing ample space and privacy. The boat was impeccably clean and well-maintained, equipped with all the facilities we could possibly need, including a SUP board and snorkel gear, which added an extra layer of fun to our trip. We had the chance to explore 4-5 different islands, each more beautiful than the last. The itinerary was well-planned and executed, giving us plenty of time to enjoy each destination. The highlight, however, was the outstanding service provided by Nikos and his crew. They were professional, friendly, and attentive to every detail, ensuring our trip was smooth and enjoyable. A special thanks to Thomas, our skipper, who truly made our first sailing experience unforgettable. His expertise, knowledge, and friendly demeanor put us at ease and made the journey even more enjoyable. We felt safe and well-cared for throughout the trip. If you're considering a sailing trip, I can definitely recommend Nikos and his team. This was a top-notch experience from start to finish, and I can't wait for the next adventure!
Amazin, the best decision is to spend a day with Captain Christos and his boat. So nice and safe and on time.
Description says Dingy (and motor for dingy) included in price. There was no dingy, we had to swim a ways to get to any beach we wanted to visit. I paid extra for a sea scooter for snorkeling (kids were soooo excited) & I wasn't informed until we boarded that it wasn't available. He didn't charge me for it, but some communication would have been nice. We've sailed with other companies in the past and had a great experience. I don't think I'd trust going this route again.
All perfect!
We chose to spend a day in Athens taking a private boat tour with Nikos! The knowledge and experience was very evident and we really enjoyed our time. The water is crystal clear, refreshing, and beautiful for snorkeling!! The whole experience was so easy and wonderful to relax for a few hours in the middle of a very busy vacation. Nikos is very knowledgeable and can provide excellent recommendations for your time in Athens as well. The boat itself is also gorgeous and I would definitely recommend booking this unique boat experience while in Athens!
Nikos and his brother were the best!!! We had a super day. We asked them to decide what would be te best to do since it was very windy. They made a plan and it was perfect! Thanks guys 🙌🙌
It was such a nice experience, we enjoyed every second of it.
An amazing experience with excellent communication. We chartered the boat for a 3-day trip. Although we weren't very lucky with the weather, we still had a fantastic time and adventure with our skipper, George - amazing professional, human and now just our friend in Greece. Nikos, the owner, is also wonderful and was always available to answer any questions we had before the trip. Everything was smooth and perfectly organized. A few details to note for the future: the boat isn't brand new but is in great condition, there is a lack of working USB ports, and no 220/110 ports . Nonetheless, the overall experience was outstanding. Totally recommended.
If you are looking for the best Greek sailing trip , look nowhere else! Nikos and his team will make sure you have the time of your life. The services they provided exceeded our expectations! First of all, the communication with Nikos was excellent even before we book with them. He was 24/7 available and patient enough to answer any questions we had and dealt with all the logistics in a very efficient way. He took care of every little detail! We spent 4 days sailing in the Saronic gulf and it was the most joyful sailing trip we ever had. The boat was fully equipped, clean and very comfortable. We didn't encounter any issues. Stelios and Christos (skippers) were friendly and experienced and they made us feel safe from the very first moment. They were easy going to talk and always willing to do tour guide talks about the places we visited while also being discreet and let us enjoy our time. They are all experienced sailers, have been doing this job for many years with ‘meraki’ ( = doing something with a sense of care and pride). We literally felt the greek whole-hearty hospitality at its finest! Last but not least, after the sailing trip Christos and his son were kind enough and took us to their family tavern to have lunch and say goodbye! If you are staying more days in Athens make sure you visit their Tavern in Agios Dimitrios - another greek fusion food experience we will never forget! We will 100% recommend their services and we will choose them again on our next trip to Greece! Euxaristw!
Highly recommend this boat and wonderful skipper Nikos and his father. We had a wonderful day on the sea with their excellent suggestions for swimming spots. It was a really relaxed and excellent day - nothing was too much trouble for Nikos and communication before the trip was excellent. The boat is perfect- well maintained and clean with ample refrigeration for beverages and food. Niko also supplied towels which was really great too. Highly recommend this operator- wonderful experience.
If you're coming to Athens and want to spend a day on a boat, do yourself a favor and call Nikos. My family of 6 plus a 1 year old scheduled a full day with Nikos and crew and they showed us a most wonderful and outstanding time in the Aegean Sea. They brought us to the most amazing swimming spot and even offered to show us more locations(unfortunately the 1 year old made us turn in early for the day with nonstop crying, but the crew were so accommodating and wonderful and supportive of him). Nikos also gave us many, many recommendations for food, drinks, & dessert in the area and each of his choices we went to were outstanding. If I find myself or my family back in Athens in the future, I will make sure to reach back out to Nikos to schedule another wonderful day on the seas
We had an amazing day on the boat! We were so grateful to book just the night before. NIKOS was great with communication and very flexible with allowing us to change the time of the boat. Onboard he and Chris made us incredibly comfortable. They even allowed us to bring my two small dogs, and cared for them when we went swimming! When some swimmers had a hard time they didn’t hesitate to jump in and calmly tow them back to the boat. We had a great tour of the coast and had a sunset swim to a gorgeous beach bar. My friends said it was by far their best day in Greece. I cannot recommend them highly enough! Thank you for everything.
Great crew and boat took us to wonderful places we had so much fun
Brilliant day out. Nikos went above and beyond to make our experience memorable and to help us with any queries we had. The boat was perfect. Highly recommend Nikos
Amazing sailing trip ! The owner and tour skipper were very polite and knowledgeable and they planned all details to make sure we had the best experience ever ! I totally recommend them for a day trip or even longer.
We spent 3 wonderful days and 2 nights on the sailboat. Communication and welcome were top notch by Nikos, then our Skipper George showed us the wonders of the Saronic Gulf: coves with turquoise waters, small typical ports, night at anchor, and even a pair of dolphins! Unforgettable memories for our children aged 13, 11 and 9! We recommend it with our eyes closed ?
We did our girlfriend's bachelorette party with blue_charters_!! Incredible experience!! We had a great time on our trip! Nikos, our skipper, was a total professional. He inspired confidence in us from the first moment, and made sure we felt safe and relaxed throughout the entire trip.
Wonderful week, thank you very much ?
Our trip with Nikos and Panagiotis to beautiful Aegina was 10/10. 8 girls and all 8 of us had a great day. Very good communication with Nikos, he answered all my questions very quickly before the trip.
The best experience, we had a great time! From the initial communication with Nikos S. who was always helpful and direct, to the service on the boat from Mr. Christos and Nikos T. who helped us and ran everything both on the boat and with the planning of the excursion, everything was perfect! Extra thanks for me for taking care of me like the best of them due to my pregnancy! We will definitely choose you again!
We had a wonderful day for my birthday! We went for a one-day trip to Aegina, to amazing waters and then to the village! The program of our excursion was excellent! Mr. Christos and Nikos were very kind and very helpful! Very open to any suggestion, relaxed and communicative! Excellent acquaintances of the sea and the boat! They took great care of us and advised us on everything! I highly recommend it! Excellent experience! We all became a great company together!! We can't wait for our next trip!
Our stay fully met our expectations, especially thanks to Giorgios our skipper who accompanied us and took us where we wanted to go while making suggestions, he integrated very well into our family life, it was very pleasant. Nikos also managed the logistics and communication well and the boat was very good for us. Only the wifi did not work. A superb experience to repeat!
We booked a one-day excursion to Aegina for a bachelorette party of 8 people. The guys were excellent in organization and communication, the skipper incredibly helpful, discreet and kind. Very good choice!
On Nikos' boat we had a wonderful 4-day adventure. We traveled as a big family with 4 adults and three teenagers. Despite our lack of experience, we wanted to sail to the Cyclades. On the first day we experienced wind and waves (3-4Bft) and learned about seasickness. After an overnight stay on the water off Cape Sounio on the second day, everyone felt like experienced sailors) We sailed around the island of Kitnos and Kea. We discovered wild beaches and views of exceptional beauty that cannot be seen from land. We experienced many water sports activities Special thanks to our skipper Georgius who was there to give us advice, was always ready to answer any of our questions, taught us how to anchor and hoist the sail. Thank you very much and see you next time.
Everything was great and the boat fantastic. Although the weather wasn't ideal, the skipper was very accommodating and accommodating, making our trip enjoyable. Very friendly atmosphere, with a positive attitude for additional destinations, even if it led to exceeding the "standard hours". We will definitely prefer it again.
We were a group of 5 friends and we spent a wonderful day aboard Nikos’ boat! This experience was everything one could hope for from a private excursion! We recommend 1000% :) Thank you for this great day!
Great day with Nikos and his father for the bachelorette party of one of us! We were a group of 6 girls and we had a blast! The boat is great! Nikos and his father are adorable and caring! They welcomed us with breakfast and a bottle of champagne! Then, despite the bad weather, Nikos adapted the itinerary so that we still had a great day! Thank you for everything, we will be back!
The service was impeccable, beyond all expectations! The guys on the sailboat very kindly Vassiki and he gave us an unforgettable day! I highly recommend it, at the first opportunity we will definitely do it again!
Attention Always check the wind conditions before setting sail. We had the worst time of our lives on the way back to Athens 3 hours of fear the boat was shaken like a bottle I think the rental companies could have told us.
Nikos has treated us very well. He has responded quickly to all our queries and, most importantly, he has solved any problem that has arisen. Fantastic to deal with. The boat would need a little maintenance, especially the motor of the inflatable boat, but we have been able to make our journey without problem. Our captain has taken us through some wonderful places on the islands near Athens
We took a day trip to Aegina - everything was perfect, just as we had dreamed it would be! The boat is perfect, comfortable, clean! The route and the beaches carefully selected! But above all, Skipper Christos, he was excellent, attentive, kind, and although very knowledgeable about his subject, we felt 100% safe and enjoyable at every moment - I highly recommend it!
Everything was wonderful, the communication very direct, flexibility in the schedule, willingness and good mood, the sailboat very beautiful, with many facilities! Would definitely recommend, thanks for everything!
