What are people saying about Athens

Jyothi_H, Jul 2026

Great experience

We had a wonderful experience on this three-island cruise and would highly recommend it. The boat was much fuller than we had expected, but it was exceptionally well organized from start to finish. The staff did an excellent job managing the large number of guests, and everything ran smoothly throughout the day. Despite the size of the group, the bars never felt overcrowded, and the lunch buffet after the first island stop was handled very efficiently with minimal waiting. The food was good, and the crew kept the day moving seamlessly while maintaining a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Each of the islands had its own unique charm, and we really enjoyed having time to explore, shop, and take in the beautiful scenery. If you’re staying in Athens and don’t have the opportunity to visit multiple Greek islands individually, this cruise is an excellent and convenient way to experience Hydra, Poros, and Aegina in a single day. Overall, it was a memorable experience and a great value. For first-time visitors to Greece, this is a fantastic way to enjoy the beauty of the Saronic Islands and make the most of a day outside Athens. Highly recommended!

Adults returning to their youth! Water and the sea is so inviting!

Sensational, friendly and welcoming staff! 5 star hospitality. Food was plentiful. Buffet had many options. Delicious! Also had plenty of snacks and various drinks. The boat looked like a pirate ship. Loved visiting the islands. Gorgeous! And the option to jump and swim off the boat was really fun! Adults returning to their youth as they did their plunges. :) Overall, an unforgettable, enjoyable and relaxing experience! Highly recommend! -Thank you from Susan and Troy

Best option for seeing multiple islands in one day

I was skeptical after reading so many reviews that said this type of cruise would turn into a huge sales pitch for excursions and other up-sells, but I did not witness any of that happening. I absolutely hate any type of up-selling, and that would have immediately been a deal breaker for me. Everything about this day cruise turned out to be well-organized, and the VIP experience was truly that. They really take care of you, if you go for the VIP package. The food was truly awful, but then again, I have never been on any type of cruise that had decent food, so I can't really blame this particular company for something that other companies can't do any better. There is not really much to see or do on the islands, but the cruise operator does a good job of getting you there as efficiently and comfortably as possible. The social experience of being on the boat was the best part of the entire day, because you have plenty of people to talk to, as long as you are willing to meet new people. The scenery is beautiful, and the pistachio island had some of the best ice cream in the world, even better than the award-winning gelato shops in Italy. If you want to see the islands, and you only have one day, this seems to be the best option.

Unique sailing experience to Aegina-Metopi and Skala

Danielle_M, Oct 2025

Fun relaxing cruise

Fun cruise. Only one shop was open on Agistri due to the season but still fun. Swimming was cool. Lunch was fantastic and the crew was great. Sam took us to a pistachio vendor on Aegina that had really good products and we came back with way too many nummy things. Elizabeth was no nonsense on safety but cracked some pretty great jokes on my husband. Ha! It was a fun little laid back trip. Does take about 2hrs to get out there but very scenic and relaxing!

Absolutely PHENOMENAL Experience!!

Absolutely PHENOMENAL!! We had a huge issue with out Uber dropping us over a mile away with no idea where we were supposed to be. We were a half-hour late by the time we found the offices and fully expected that they had sailed. They WAITED for us!!! Beyond that, the crew were PHENOMENAL! And the food was freshly prepared right on board and absolutely delicious!! We cannot overstate how absolutely fantastic the captain and first mate were on this adventure. They truly went WELL over and above.

Must do 3 island trip!

Absolutely incredible! Perfect 1st island to swim at the beach; 2nd uninhabited allowed swimming/sliding/jumping into the ocean; 3rd beach was not impressive however free entrance to visit the ruins, shop, or eat! Then dancing on the boat; food was amazing! Highly recommend!

From Athens: Aegina Island guided tour in a day

Great day to visit the Aegina Island

There was some difficulty finding the meeting place in the port. The customer service rep at the Ammons Express office was very helpful and assisted me by sending me a picture of the area to meet. I was successful in finding the tour guide. The tour guide Vivian was smart, organized and interesting. She paced the tour so we had enough time to eat and go to the beach. Nice tour of the island.
