Would highly recommend - We had an amazing day. Picked up from hotel and dropped 2 mins from the boat. The catamaran was real luxury. Lots of places to sunbathe or sit in the shade. The crew were fab. Friendly but not intrusive (I hate that!). But happy to chat if you wanted to. The food was delicious and expertly cooked by the captain. Amazing sunset views.

Felt like movies stars! - What a great experience from beginning to end! We were locked up right at our hotel and taken to the pier where we boarded a luxurious 44 foot catamaran. We sailed all over the caldera and smaller islands around Santorini, stopping a few times to go swimming and snorkeling. We had a great dinner in a secluded island harbor, and then watched a spectacular sunset. The whole thing was amazing - we felt pampered from start to finish.

Unforgettable catamaran tour 👍 - Today we took part in the really great Caldera catamaran tour, semi-private, with sunset in Oia. We were picked up near the hotel and driven to the port of Oia. The catamaran was brand new and the three-person tour was highly motivated and top service-oriented. From 2pm to 9pm the tour went around Santorini with various bathing stops and an excellent barbecue dinner. It was an incredibly beautiful experience and really a top provider. Highly recommended.

VIP experience exceeded expectations - Our Semi-Private Sunset Cruise on the Carpe Diem with Georgia, Giannis and Marcos was exceptional and a highlight of our 1st trip to Santorini! It started with the warm and welcoming correspondence with Vasileios when we booked and during our pickup at the Imerovigli office and continued through every moment of our cruise. The stops for swimming and snorkeling were lovely and it was breathtaking to experience the caldera and sunset from the water. And I can’t say enough about the gracious service provided by captain and crew. Believe the other reviews that rave about the restaurant quality of the meal that is served aboard. The fresh fish (all grilled, filleted, de-boned & plated on board the boat!), grilled octopus, grilled pita, fresh dips, Greek salad and more really did rank as one of our best meals on this vacation! A cruise with Renieris is an absolute must-do when visiting Santorini!

Must do - Fantastic experience, everything was perfect from the services on the catamaran all the way to the amazing views and snorkeling spots. Crew was super friendly and helpful. Compared to other catamarans, we weren't too many (about 12 people) which made the trip very comfortable. Amazing sunset view when reaching the boat trip end. Can't recommend them enough.

Sunset cruise - food was great! For the rest…. - We have done several cruises/sails in our travels and specifically during this trip we did one in Milos and Paros. This was our least favorite. Let’s start with the great! The food! Top notch and was the highlight. The good, they pick you up and bring you back to your hotel/airbnb. The not so good, almost terrible. The atmosphere was not fun. The crew from the get go, while efficient, seemed to be in a bad mood and not overly friendly. They asked a couple times throughout our 6 hour cruise if we wanted anything to drink, otherwise we’d ask (and of course they were happy to get). They didn’t talk to anyone and if we tried talking to them would give a curt reply and leave. The music was terrible. We asked a couple times to change it from the techo club vibe to something more tolerable (and this is coming from teens, so not just our “older ears”). They would change it temporarily but it always went back. Not relaxing or the vibe of a sunset cruise. The swim spots were super short (15 min) and also nothing special or pretty. The waters that day were rough (not their fault) but even if they weren’t rough, I don’t think we would have been too enticed to jump in. The cost for this was one of the highest of our sails and again, I’m not trying to be overly critical but for the cost, I want others to know, maybe look elsewhere or save some vacation dollars and do a different type of excursion. Lastly, before you assume I’m just being overly critical, another person at the end of the cruise asked us if this our first time doing one of these, we said “no”, and asked if it was for her. She said, “yes”. We asked her what she thought and she said it was not good or what she expected, overpriced and she wished she’d just done a nice restaurant with a view of the sunset, so it did seem like we weren’t the only ones that felt that way. I would highly encourage this crew to check out polco sailing in Milos. Best sail we’ve ever done (even though the food wasn’t as good as this one!) but the atmosphere, crew, music, fun, and stops, wow, wow, wow! I wish every crew and cruise was as good as that one. We made the best of it (after all, you are still in Greece!) but with how expensive everything is and how valuable vacation dollars are, we wish in the end we would have done a different company or excursion.
