My family booked a day trip by boat with Aris. He guaranteed we would have a great experience and we absolutely did. There were 8 of us ranging in age from mid 20’s to 80+. Initially I was concerned we wouldn’t all fit comfortably on the boat but we all did and those prone to motion sickness had no problem. We were guided out to Kythnos. Even those who hadn’t planned to go swimming couldn’t resist the turquoise water. Aris shared delicious breads made by his aunt and served us bruschetta at the beach. We probably didn’t need to eat more but we visited a local tavern in the harbor where we shared a meal and wine before returning to the mainland. Before disembarking, Aris’ uncle (our captain and the owner of the boat) made us espresso to wake us up because we were headed straight to the airport to catch a flight. This was a great ending to our trip and we all enjoyed the day!
We had an amazing day on the boat with Aris. He grew up sailing the greek islands, and knows the best beaches and swim spots like the back of his hand. Also, he's just incredibly easy to get along with. We are already planning to go back to greece, and will definitely ask him to help with our next trip.
Our day outside of the city could not have been any better. From the very start of the tour, we felt very comfortable and relaxed with Aris. He was extremely generous and genuine throughout the entire day. He took us on his boat to two local islands where we enjoyed snorkeling, swimming in the crystal clear waters and feeding rabbits on the islands. This tour was exactly what we hoped it would be primarily thanks to Aris and the person he is.
Aris provided an A+, 10/10 excursion for our family of 5. After the heat and history of the Acropolis, we spent a day going from island to island with Aris on his boat. He provided everything we needed to have a great time. If you are looking to spend a day enjoying the water and sun, this is the right trip to book. We will definitely look Aris up again next time we are in Athens.
