boat hire in Heraklion · Jeanneau — Sun Shine 38 (1989)

John is a very genial, knowledgable and friendly guy who provided us eith a four day/three night cruise to Dia island and Bali. We had a fantastic time, visited beautiful coves swam in crystal clear seas and enjoyed his amazing cooking, with olive oil from his farm and fresh herbs picked that morning. All in all a five star experience!!

We spent an amazing day with the whole family in the company of John. We had a day trip to the dia islands. John was very kind and welcoming. The boat is perfect and confortable for a wonderful experience. Event the food was great. Many many thanks !

Captain John was a great host for our families. He was very kind to us and the kids and we had a great time on the Christina!

Our day trip to Dia Island with Captain John was unforgettable. His kindness, energy, and attention to detail made the experience exceptional. The weather was not the best, but Dia Island’s beauty was enhanced by John’s expert guidance that brought us to the best spot. From snorkeling to exploring the cove, it was a day of pure fun. Highly recommended!

We were 6 adults and spent 3 nights /4 days on board – it was such a blast! John the skipper was so kind, helpful, reassuring at any time - this trip was a real pleasure. It is a very good boat, perfectly equipped. John gives very good instructions and advice for the one`s interested in navigation. The boat itself is great with amenities (i.e. fins, snorkel masks & tubas, towels, outdoor pillows…). It was very clean. John is just really a pleasant and fun person to spend time with, telling us about some Cretan traditions. He adapted the trip to our wishes. For example, some of us were more interested in visiting villages while others wanted to stay in coves, and he quickly got us to a beautiful and peaceful cove where the ones interested could easily swim to a charming village. He has all kinds of equipment ready for us, including drybags of different sizes. If he has time, he even likes to cook – wonderfully so. He would also withdraw discreetly whenever needed. Highly professional – highly recommended. Thanks John for the amazing experience!

We had a fantastic boating experience! The host was incredibly accommodating and made sure everything went smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better time on the water! I highly recommend this experience

Fantastic experience onboard Giannis lovely boat! We choice to sail with Giannis because he seemed to have a kind vibe and would allow us to design how we wished to spend our day. We did not want a “tour” we wanted to sail! Giannis let us do as much or as little as we desired. We had a perfect day of sailing! Giannis was generous with teaching us techniques and offering suggestions. We are old salts still looking for adventure on the seas and Giannis was the perfect captain!

Very good excursion! John was so kind and friendly. Besides, the meals he prepared was very good and local - greek salad with products from his own farm! Thank you for this day

We rent the sail boat for a bachelorette. It was a great choice!! We really enjoyed it. We did a daily cruise to Dias island which is an amazing place! John was very welcome and helpful with everything we need it. He had organized everything and prepared a good meal for us. We totally recommend this experience

We had a perfect day with Giannis. He is very kind and conjured up a super delicious meal for us - fruits and Raki included ;) We were not rushed and could relax the entire day during our sailing trip. Thank you Giannis for the wonderful time!

John is a great host. We were informed well about the boat and spent a great time sailing around Heraklios.

Everything was perfect. boat not new but well-groomed and in perfect condition. we rent this boat without a skipper, but the owner was very pleasant to explain us all details. and John made try ride with us to make sure we were comfortable with every detail. after all we get amazing presents from John so we was happy. Strongly recommended

We had an awesome 3 days on this boat with our skipper Giannis. As a group of 6 the boat was spacious enough and had everything we wanted. Giannis is a really professional skipper with loads of experience. The food he offers is very tasty and plentifull. He is flexibel in the itinerary and gives good recommendations. We would definitely recommend the boat and Giannis.

It was amazing experience of sailing in Aegean Sea. My best regards to our skipper and his assistant for this journey!

It was an excellent experience for the whole family. John made our stay very pleasant and took care of all the details. Highly recommended.

Great day with Giannis, who has a lot of experience and knows how to transmit his passion! Everything was pleasant, the boat was very well equipped, there were 4 of us and we didn't lack anything To do again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Many thanks to John, we had a great day, he took us to beautiful places, far from the tourist areas. John is very welcoming and super nice, plus he cooks like a 5 star chef. There were 4 of us and we all enjoyed our day, I recommend him 100%

Great welcome. A magnificent crossing. Well-chosen swimming spots. A great captain. We ate really well. Great day. The dolphins crossed our navigation, an unforgettable moment. I highly recommend.

Great trip. Giannis is very friendly and my husband loved being able to participate in maneuvers and navigation. The boat is portable. We went for 2 days to the island of Dia and it was magnificent. Thank you so much

No initial presentation of safety equipment - no toilets during half of the cruise - weak batteries, traces of aging and instruments broken down - very good initial welcome but deplorable attitude during the second half of the cruise - we will not leave with this skipper .
