“Roberto runs a really great excursion! The catamaran was very clean — you give up your shoes and sandals before you get on the boat to keep it that way as well as to avoid any slipping on the deck when it gets wet. The group size was small (less than a dozen) as advertised, and the two swimming locations chosen were perfect. We spent more than enough time at each place. The lunch was delicious and there was more than enough food for the entire group. When we return to Athens this excursion is definitely one we’ll repeat with the whole family!”
