The crew was so fantastic... - 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!

Amazing crew/staff and a wonderful cruise - Super fun with an amazing crew and a great lunch. They do a great job departing on time so be prompt and punctual. I had planned this trip via viator earlier in the year and it was super easy to use and the updates were very useful. If you’re driving to the departure point, give yourself some time to find a decent parking spot so you’re not late into the boat. One thing I will note is that they can’t change bookings last minute (totally fair and understandable). My husband got sick the day before and hadn’t recovered enough by the morning to attend so it was just me and the two teen kids. I did try calling to see if we could postpone our trip for the following day but they were booked solid (again, totally fair and that is why I originally booked the package back in like February). The boat ride portion is neat and you see all the various islands along the trip to kouffonisia. If it’s windy, the boat can rock a bit so please bring any anti-emetics/motionsickness tablets with you (and take them ahead of time). The boat makes a stop an Kato kouffonisia for a swim, then the bbq lunch, then to ano kouffonisia where you can disembark and check out the island (super cute), then you head to the cave from some swimming. All in all - it was really a fun time. Wish the husband could’ve been there - but that’s how life works. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Totally Brilliant Day - We have just come back from the most amazing day with Jason Daily Cruise.
The staff were absolutely fantastic, approachable, kind and so much fun.
The BBQ lunch was delicious, drinks available at all times and fresh, cold watermelon in the afternoon.
The boat ride was an absolute blast, stunning scenery, great atmosphere and the places we stopped en route were sublime. So beautiful.
All in all a perfect day.
Thank you Team Jason. We will be recommmeding you to everyone.

Picturesque trip, one of the best. Rinas cave and Ano Koufonisi are amazing highlights. - Awesome trip.
Journey was lovely likely mostly travelling with the breeze. Great sites and views to look at on route. Lovely snack of Naxos cheese, tomato and fresh bread.
Stop 1 was to Rina cave. A nice sheltered bay with a cave. Swim 50m with noodle, snorkel and mask. The cave is quite big but there is a lot of people at once, as other boats go at same time. Cave very dark at the back, lovely experience. Swim back to boat was fine and they have easyish access out of water. Steps rather than ladder.
Stop 2 was Kato Koufonisi and this was a bbq stop. Good time to swim around boat. Can swim to beach but is twice distance of cave swim, it is hard work with snorkel and noodle! BBQ was nice, with souvlaki pork and chicken skewers, Greek salad and lemon potatoes (yummy).
Stop 3 was a visit to Ano Koufonisi and this was a picturesque island. See was an amazing colour, so inviting and turquoise. There is a bar and a couple of shops. You can drink a soft drink, beer, wine or cocktail alongside the sea, beautiful.
Journey home was a couple of hours. Can be breezy into the wind a bit so a towel or clothing good on return leg. Water and watermelon on way back.
Team very friendly and chef did a great job.

Best day! - 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!

Excellent time! Would love to go again one day! - 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 is an understatement - 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.
