“Relaxing boat day in Santorini - We had the best time on our private catamaran. The boat was fantastic - there were only 4 of us and there was so much space inside and outside. The crew was phenomenal - they were constantly making sure we were ok, bringing us towels and drinks and made us the best lunch. I can’t say enough about how kind the crew was. The weather was perfect and we enjoyed a relaxing boat day in Santorini.” (Reviewed on 2025-05-29)
