On the other hand, the cook made homemade pasta, sauce from scratch, and served delicious wine. It was great fellowship with other passengers small but intimate and the guided tour was great. 110%. would recommend you try this excursion!!!”

Paula is among the crew members praised for her warm, lively service.

“Great trip for all ages! Good mix of activities and fantastic staff. Be sure to bring your own googles, snorkel gear and towels. The adds says they are available for a small fee but on the boat your only option is to buy them for $15 euros each. The visits to Delos felt rushed but it was an awesome experience. I think they should spend a little less time swimming and more time on Delos but lots of folks enjoyed the swimming. The lunch was decent. The dance party they had on the boat on the return trip was hilarious and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.”
