Wonderful time for our family

We had a sunset cruise for 12 and had an amazing time. The boat was lovely, dinner was delicious, and the cruise was just delightful. We had a great cruise of the caldera and Santorini, and thoroughly enjoyed our swimming opportunities. We were well taken care of from being picked up at our hotel, all through the cruise, and back again. Highly recommended!
