Die Tour war eigentlich sehr schön, weil es eben Santorini war. Das was wir gesehen haben war toll. Aber wir müssen bei der Bewertung 2 Sterne abziehen, weil es einige Missverständnisse gab: das Boot kam zu spät und wir mussten sogar den Veranstalter anrufen. Erst dann kam das Boor. Die Crew bestand aus zwei Personen, die nicht gerade sehr viel Freude an ihrem Job versprühten. Wir kamen nicht wirklich willkommen an Bord vor. Die Crew wusste nicht das wir Tickets für die Wanderung auf dem Krater hatten u d es schien so, dass das Zeitlimit knapp war, denn wir wurden beim Schnorcheln nach kurzer Zeit aus dem Wasser gebeten und die Fahrt zurück nach Oia fuhr das Boot so schnell dass es echt gefährlich war (wir mussten uns richtig festkrallen) und alle plischnass waren. Bei den Schqefelquellen bekamen wir Handtücher- leider auch blau wie unsere vom Hotel aus, aber ohne das Boot-Emblem. Sie setzten uns am Hafen ab und kamen mit dem Boot nochmal zurück, weil wir angeblich deren Handtücher mitgenommen hatten. Wir hatten es bereut Trinkgeld gegeben zu haben. Tipp: alle Boote um uns rum gaben ihren Gästen Schwimmbädern bei den heißen Quellen und die haben wir vermisst. Die Strecke bis zu den wirklich heißen Quellen ist echt weit. Drei von uns 6 mussten deshalb das Schwimmen vorab abbrechen.

Good evening, Thank you very much for sharing your impressions. We are glad that you enjoyed the beauty of Santorini and the tour! We would like to respond to your comments and explain exactly what happened. Our boat was at the meeting point from 13:10, as we had informed you through the platform you used to book the excursion. There was a small delay of about 10 minutes while we were trying to locate you. As for the tour, our goal is always to inform the passengers about the route and the sights they are seeing. Our crew is always there to provide you with an unforgettable experience. Thanks to their years of experience, they know all the hidden secrets of the island and strive to offer high-quality services. Regarding the towels, such mistakes can occur due to language differences, and we sincerely hope there was no misunderstanding. At no point was there any intention to make you feel uncomfortable. Our boat is a comfortable motor yacht designed for secure and stable navigation, and we always adjust the speed to ensure the well-being of all our guests. The comfort and enjoyment of our passengers is our highest priority. As for the hot springs, they are small underwater craters, and their temperature depends on the conditions of the weather. The crew provides the same information during the excursion. Thank you again for your feedback. Every comment helps us improve and provide a more enjoyable experience for all our guests. Kind regards, Spiridakos Sailing Cruises

Amazing tour!!!
This tour is a must do in Santorini. We had a private tour with 2 crew members. They had soda, water and beer for us on the trip. We got to see an amazing view, jump in the water to snorkel, hike the volcano and bath in the warm hot springs. A great experience we won’t forget!!

An absolute must!!
Where to begin! Ask around great vibes!! The boat was large, clean, modern and very comfortable. The 4yr old to the 74yr old and everyone in between had a blast! The captain and crew (whose names escape me) went above and beyond to ensure everyone enjoyed themselves. As for the food, it was well seasoned, delicious and plentiful! Should I return to santorini, I'll do this again 100%, A great experience!, Excellent!, Well organized!, A great experience!, Our guide was awesome!, A great experience!
