I have to say that this tour was one of our favorites and we almost considered doing it again. The family who runs the tour is so wholesome and such a great team. We were running a little late and they told us slow down, don’t worry, we can’t leave without you. So kind, fun, vibrant positive energy. The boat was full so we sat in the back with turned out to be the perfect place. We went during the beginning of July and it was about 80 out. It was hot but just right. We went to a swimming spot and fell in love. There are three spots to enter the crystal clear blue waters from. You can also go to the shore but be sure to bring your water shoes! We had an option to go to the Delos archeological site or continue swimming. We decided to continue swimming. The second spot was BEAUTIFUL. The crew warned us that if we go to the shore to wear shoes. A girl (may have drunk a bit of wine) climbed up a huge rock and attempted to jump but slipped. Her injures were horrible. She was okay but I’m sure she is going to be in a lot of pain for the rest of her trip. It was basically road rash on the entire side of her body. The crew warned us though so they are entirely not at fault and they did a great job of taking care of her and making sure she was okay. The food on the boat was good! They played great music and had all of us dancing. I cannot stress enough, the crew on this boat is THE BEST. I will never forget them and their kindness and beautiful way of being ! If I come back I will definitely do this tour again! Last note, the family has two young children that do such an amazing job helping with everything. I would just like to commend them on their amazing work!

What a great addition to our trip- swam in an amazing place, great lunch and beverages, visited Delos, and danced all the way back !
Kevin_A, Oct 2025
Such a fun experience! I was initially hesitant due to the cost but the food was good, the free wine was flowing, and we ended in a dance party on the boat. It was the best part
of our Mykonos visit.

Great boat trip to Delos/Rhenia. It was a total blast, and walking the Island of Delos without a guide was like walking in the footsteps of the Ancient Greeks. Delos was so well preserved that one could imagine himself being there 2300 years ago. And our lunch/swim stop was other worldly. Oh, And those other reviews that spoke of little wine being served...Well, that wasn't the case on our tour LOL
Caroline_R, Sep 2025
“The tour was wonderful!! The landscapes were amazing, and the island of Rhenia is truly fabulous with its crystal-clear waters. Our guide Paula was so kind and full of energy! A great detail is that this boat is large enough to operate even with strong winds. We had previously booked another tour on a smaller catamaran, but the day before it was canceled due to the wind. So we booked this one instead, and it was excellent!

Fabienne_V, Aug 2025
This was SO much fun!!! The best part of my time in Mykonos easily! We had the absolute best day ever!!! I highly highly recommend this to anyone coming to Mykonos who loves to swim and see the sights! We still haven’t stopped talking about it and I don’t think we ever will.
Valeria_V, Jul 2025
They should written the capacity of the boat so that before booking you an idea of how many people will partecipate. Would be nice to have something in line with ages of people. The cruise was nice but the time spent in Devos was too short. Maybe would have been better 2 hours in Devon and the a swim in Athenian ( where you couldn’t reach the beach because the boat stopped too far away from the coast). The food was ok but basic, the wine was horrible.
Florinela_B, Jul 2025
It was amazing!!!
Awesome places to swim, awesome staff! Paula is the best, she helped us to have a very good time!
We loved dancing on a moving boat
Honestly, we are considering going again 😁
Fadi_H, Jul 2025
Wonderful trip. We enjoyed it and would do it again. The staff are very friendly and accommodating..
john_w, Jul 2025
It was great and exactly what was advertised. The only thing I would change is maybe a little less time visiting the ruins..
melaniekwoods, Jun 2025
Great energy! Rhenia was a beautiful place to swim and we loved hiking Delos. Could have spent a bit more time there exploring the ruins but all in all a great time. The dancing on the way back was so fun.
Elizabeth_R, Jun 2025
What a fun experience! The crew was lovely. The destinations were beautiful, plenty of time to swim, comfortable ride over, and the dance party on the way back was fun!
Dan_F, Jun 2025
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.
kristen_a, Jun 2025
The family that runs this tour is amazing! They are so gracious, and they truly care about the needs of the people on their boat. The food was amazing, and the hospitality was even better! The stops were beautiful and the music and dancing on the way back made the trip so much fun!
Veronica_H, Jun 2025
This was a fantastic experience, getting to swim and explore a world heritage cite, if anyone could ruin that I'd be pretty impressed. Lunch was lovely, crew was the same. Waters were a bit rough coming back and the whole crew kept great attitudes and had fun along with us. I did not partake in the complementary wine, but juice was available and very refreshing. Other drinks were available but it is a cash only bar so be aware! The lack of awareness for the cash bar and the crazy prices on equipment (50€ for snorkeling gear) are the reason for the 4 stars, definitely book this just be aware!
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Thank you for your lovely review, we are delighted you had such a great time. Just a small note, the snorkelling gear actually costs 15e, not 50e.
Heres to having you on board again!!
Julie_D, Jun 2025
This was a perfect activity for our family (including our two kids). I read some of the reviews referring to this as a “party boat”, but that wasn’t our impression. Delos was great, and the swimming was fun.
Utkarsh_D, Jun 2025
Excellent experience with cruise going to Rhenia and Delos. We enjoyed great food, drinks and awesome company. Highly recommend!!
Sarah_G, Jun 2025
This was a very fun and upbeat tour to take. Though we would have enjoyed a bit more time touring the ruins, there was a good balance of swim time and tour time. The lunch was delicious and they were accommodating to our vegetarian diet which was just wonderful. A great family offering a great time, please book and treat yourself, you wont regret it!
Amy_Y, May 2025
We had such a fun day on this excursion! Beautiful swimming and jumping into the crystal water at Rhenia, yummy bbq lunch on the boat, and then dropped off at Delos for two hours to see the ruins. We loved the whole day
Mathias_A, May 2025
It was a very nice outing. Friendly crew, decent food, solid boat. I would recommend this activity!!
Deborah_A, May 2025
Great experience! Was a beautiful day though weather was a little cool. Kids loved swimming and wandering through Delos ruins. Definitely recommend!
Amanda_P, Apr 2025
Food was tasty and loved the scenery from the boat. Delos was closed since it was Easter, but still enjoyed the day.
Kerry_P, Oct 2024
Swimming in the Med was amazing but the most outstanding experience was visiting Delos. The feeling you got surrounded by history was extraordinary.
Catherine_H, Oct 2024
Excellent boat trip. Crew very friendly and helpful.
Had a great time and lots of fun.
The meal was good
Saranya_K, Oct 2024
The trip was great! The staff was very friendly, the boat was comfortable, the food was good and the music and dancing was the highlight of our trip - the staff went out of the way to make the trip amazing for our kids aged 6 and 4! We saw other more expensive trips, but are glad we chose this one. Absolutely fantastic. Kudos to the family that hosted the trip.
Taylor_S, Oct 2024
This was the highlight of our 2 week trip to Greece! The cruise was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the staff were exceptional. We did another boat tour on another island a few days later and it paled in comparison. This is a MUST.
Krishna_L, Oct 2024
Great trip. Fully worth the money. Boat was great not crowded. Crew was great. Kept us entertained and gave a personal touch to remember by something.
Sherry_H, Oct 2024
We had an absolutely amazing day! The crew were fabulous, the other people on board were a great group also. We loved everything about the day. Would definitely recommend this day trip!
Gloria_B, Oct 2024
We are still on vacation and out of the Country. However, when we arrived at the location to take this tour, they left without us. Sara, was very rude to us, I would like a full REFUND. When we return to the states, I will call Viator and give you the details of our experience. Thank you, Gloria Brown
Response from Host, Oct 2024
Ok so let us get this straight. You arrived by cruise ship at the cruise port which is located 1.5km from the old port and our meeting and departure point. Upon booking the excursion you received detailed information concerning the departing time and place. Sara tried to contact you several times before our departure at 10:30. You could have taken a bus, a taxi, a shuttle boat , a donkey ride or whatever, and yet you chose to walk (!) the distance between the two ports and arrived at 11:00. We are not responsible for the way our guests choose to arrive to the meeting point. We have a strict schedule and a limited time slot remaining at the port, and it would be unfair to wait for 30min to all the other guests who were on board on time. This is not a private excursion, but a shared one. We are sorry you missed it, but do not see how we are to blame for this.
Stephanie_S, Oct 2024
The people in charge were wonderful. The lunch served was pretty good. We thought we were headed to a beach for swimming and relaxing in the sun. We had to climb done a ladder into the sea and swim to a rocky "beach". They gave us "noodles" to keep us afloat. Getting up & down ladder was brutal, strenuous, and, anxiety provoking.
Response from Host, Oct 2024
We are very sorry you didnt enjoy the whole experience with us. Rhenia is a deserted cycladic island, and this is the only way to reach it. There are different types of small beaches on the island, the captain decides which one is the best daily depending on the weather conditions.
