Hi there! Nice to meet you

Aris

The Greeks have always had rooted affiliation to the sea. The ancient city of Athens remains the hub for all yachting activities and the perfect place to meet your crewed motor yacht. . Embrace island hopping so you can savour the views of idyllic white-washed houses, turquoise waters and sleepy fishing towns. Whether you are into the history, water sports, looking for a romantic holiday or are a huge foodie, Greece has it.

Greece is the home of minimalism, colour, warmth and friendliness. Past the mainland, you can adventure to the fairest of the islands, and a yacht is the smartest way to zigzag between the unspoilt islands.Your captain Aris can offer you many options, including day charters or week-long charters, whatever it takes for you to live your greek dream.

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!All sun and smiles

Aris was on top of it from the time I sent my first message inquiring about a tour to the moment he dropped us off! The island was nice and the water was perfect for snorkeling. We had the best day slashing around and playing fun watersports. The island tour had amazing views. Would 10/10 recommend! #waboboochampsA great way to feel like a local!

Aris came to pick us up at our hotel. Super punctual and kind. And took us to… paradise. He organised food, beverages and activities. The island was as beautiful as isolated. NO CROWDS. We had a corner of a beautiful beach only for us and Aris had thought of everything: water games and sports. Plus a surprise excursion in the island with a great surprise (I won’t be a spoiler). Everything went as promised, but well above what we expected. On the way back another surprise (a hidden gem to help us refresh from the afternoon heat!). Shame we organised only one day. But what a day! Holidays start here.

We had a superb day with Aris, so much fun. He really kept us informed on how the day would transpire and got on famously with my daughter, kept her engaged and entertained. We both had a great time swimming and wandering the little island, seeing the rabbits, and exploring but the highlight for her wasn't the beach or swimming - but rather the old WWII bunkers Aris showed us! Aris is so friendly and approachable and knew just about everyone we encountered. I felt very safe with him and had no worries. Well worth it for a day of rest and relaxation.Like traveling with your fun uncle!

Aris organized our trip around our available times, and he was very responsive from the beginning. He picked us up at the hotel and was on time. Once on the island we spent the day swimming, snorkeling, playing games and eating delicious homemade Greek food, all vegetarian for us. He also took us on a walking tour around the island with some great surprises! Aris was extremely nice, we felt at home. I couldn't recommend more!

Aris organized a lovely boat trip for our group of three girls on rather short notice. It was easy to communicate with him. Aris picked us up at out appartement and took us to the marina. After a 20 minutes boat ride we anchored right before Ydrousa island - the rest of the day was swimming, snorkeling, enjoying the sun, having cold drinks, eating delicious greek food and exploring the island. Aris war very welcoming and we enjoyed our trip very much. We can highly revommend a trip with Aris on his boat. Lovely day on a boat by the Athenian Sea

Our family had a fantastic day enjoying the water off the coast of Athens! The water is crystal clear and very enjoyable. Aris provided everything - delicious food, drinks, masks and snorkels. Aris is the Greek brother you wish you had - he is kind, easy to be with, knowledgeable and very fun! This excursion was a highlight of our trip and we feel lucky to have spent the day with Aris!Boat trip with Aris

Wow, we had an amazing day with Aris. He was so kind and attentive, we had a lot of fun during the day. The ride with the boat was great, although it was a bit shorter than we expected, but at the end it was the perfect combination of swimming, playing, walking and eating. The food was incredible and all fresh. We enjoyed the isle so much, all private for us. Thanks again!!!Unforgettable time
