I would highly recommend this trip out. Its a full day and well organised. Beautiful scenery and a fantastic captian, who really understands the sea when winds are high. The staff went above and beyond - we're so informative of every stage of the trip. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed this experience together. Thank you!!

This was a really nice trip. The staff was nice too. Food was good, great atmosphere, beautiful places to stop and swim and snorkel. I loved the cliff jumping and cave swimming. My age is 61.

The most small boat experience ever. The crew were absolutely courteous and hard working. Our host Paulina was the best. The cook Habib was perfect and the captain Manolis very experienced.
Would recommend the Jason cruises with 5 stars.

This was a great day trip. Lunch was delicious, the staff were very friendly, and all 3 stops were very cool to see. The cave snorkeling was the most unique and exciting, filled with vibrant fish and coral. Koufanissi island was beautiful as well, especially the main beach.

The crew was so fantastic and fun! We had a blast on this journey. There was a lot of time for swimming and the stop at the island was better than I could have imagined. A good amount of food and wine provided as well. I was slightly disappointed that it was not mentioned we needed to bring our own towels but fortunately they had extra!
Sara_B, Jun 2025
This was the best day! The boat was very full but it had a lots of space for everyone and the staff was amazing! They do great job with the stops and you have plenty of time to enjoy the beautiful water at each location they serve a delicious lunch on board and plenty of drinks to keep you hydrated! The extra time in the little village of koufonissia was so relaxing and the water is not like anything g you’ve ever seen! I highly recommend this cruise!

We had an absolutely incredibly time on this excursion. I went with my husband and kids. The crew was very family friendly, but all types of people were on the boat. It was a fun group and a beautiful day. We loved how they grilled our lunch right on the boat! It was a great way to see other parts of Naxos, as well as visit Koufonisia.

Amazing from the time we stepped on the boat. Staff was amazing. The BBQ was out of this world. We have been in Greece for two weeks and this has been the highlight, definitely worth the money.

Gorgeous waters, knowledgeable guide and safe journey! We would definitely recommend this boat and crew! Thanks!
Kristen_C, Aug 2024
This boat trip was perfect for a family of four looking to explore areas that are only accessible by boat. The day is very well organized, the lunch is absolutely delicious, and the time on Koufonissia is the perfect way to break up the boat time. I do recommend taking motion sickness meds. Water, coffee, soft drinks, and white wine are also available throughout trip and are included in the fare.

We had the best time on Jason’s boat as we sailed the Aegean Sea, stopping for swims, spending time on private and beautiful beaches, and swimming in Rina cave! It was like spending time with family; music played in the background as Paolina guided us and taught us about the geography and the islands we passed, and Fotis barbecued THE most delicious chicken which was so welcome as we returned to the ship after swimming in the ocean! I wholeheartedly recommend this trip and this particular tour company. The only advice I can share is to bring a windbreaker/poncho as the ride can be pretty bumpy and very wet on the return to Naxos!

Amazing experience! Highly recommend !! The sites were all stunning and must see if you're staying in Naxos. The food was delicious and the crew were very accommodating and cared for all the guests on board.
Jaime_S, Jun 2023
This cruise was good and the bbq lunch was amazing and the people were so nice. But I think they over sell this cruise ship and it would be more enjoyable if you sold less spots. I know they want to make all the money they can but would be easier to eat and move around with less people.
Lucas_L, Jul 2024
Équipage très sympa, repas du midi vraiment très bon et Koufinisia vaut le détour. Le problème c'est que le bateau est rempli de passagers a ras bord, entassés avec 70 personnes sur un petit bateau pendant 9 heures c'est très long... Dommage ça gâche un peu l'expérience, on a parfois plus l'impression d'être en bus plutôt qu'en bateau
Magaly_F, Jun 2024
Belle expérience beaux paysages et eau turquoise ! Barbecue sur le bateau sympa et personnel aux petits soins. Parfait
Response from Host, Dec 2025
