We spent amazing time with our host. He helped us and shared a lot of information on many subjects. I understand we'll have same boat as offered but I don't have any complaint about this one.
We had great time with our boat trip. Nikos and Natasha were very welcoming and made us feel well looked after and safe. Tasty breakfast, lunch with drinks prepared by the host. Overall great experience.
Fabulous trip - totally taken care of and excellent sailing - all in all could not be better 100%!!
Lovely day out. Very peacefull and viewed parts of the island you would never see by car
Me and my friends highly recommend this kind of experience on the sea. Nikos is the best host, very kind, the communication with him was good, he always keep me updated and inform me with everything I wanted to know about our sailing trip. The breakfast and the lunch were good, also perfect if you wanna go swimming after. It will be an experience you will never forget and Nikos will enhance the experience to another level.
Nikolaos is very friendly and helpful. We kept in touch from the begining of the reservation until our trip. He made our trip even better by providing delicious food and good company. I highly recommend it if you want to spend a day in the sea.
We are a family of 5, and booked the trip through click and boat while on holiday. The process was smooth, and the yacht owner Nikolaos kept us informed all the way up to the day of our trip even answering all of my multiple questions promptly every time I sent one! We were super excited, as we had never booked a yacht before and he didn't let us down. Nikolaos met us at the marina as arranged and welcomed us on board. Once out of the harbour we had a lovely breakfast that he had prepared, and then off we went to a secluded beach for swimming and snorkeling, which was amazing! We were taken to several different locations for swimming and snorkeling, each one totally breathtaking. A fantastic lunch was prepared also half way through. A great day out, we never felt hurried, and Nikolaos struck the right balance between letting us enjoy ourselves and occasionally letting us know where we were going next. I would book again with this owner, the boat was very clean, very friendly skipper and mate, and we all had a trip we will never forget! It was the high light of our amazing holiday on Thassos!
Nikolas made our day on the boat as perfect as possible. The boat was very clean and well maintained. Nikolas took care of every detail. Highly recomend !
Very nice boat, very comfortable! We join a private trip! Best value for money! We had a nice trip with tasty lunch and wonderfull croissants in the morning. The skipper was also very nice. We also had a sursprise a champagne for my birthday. From our incomplete expectations -the trip was 1 hour shorter , we were thinking to discover new interesting places-but it wat too windy to go some special places; and our kids were not aloud to cabin to take a nap. But this aspects are not complanints are things that we will be more carefull to ask for our next trip and maybe usefull for families wich travel with kids!
We were very happy with our family trip. The crew was discreet and very kind. Fantastic day and experience!
We had a day trip as a family of 5 and enjoyed every bit of it. Nikolaos was an excellent host, always making sure that we we comfortable and having a good time. If we come back to Thasos, we are definitely taking a trip with him.
Nikolas is amazing host! We had such a great time! Thank you for everything!
Myself and three friends booked a day on Nikoalos boat and had the best time. The greet was well organised and we were straight on our way. We were taken to some amazing secluded spots and given time to swim. We had a lovely breakfast and lunch which was served on board (we loved the deserts). The guys on board were so friendly and efficient, and made us feel very welcome. It was our first time on thassos and this trip was our favourite day by far. For the price, we couldn’t believe what we got for the day. If you’re in Thassos and want a special day, we’d highly recommend this day on the boat!!
We had an amazing trip thanks to Nikolaos! As discussed, we visited a few sight-seeing places and a few beaches. We felt completely safe during the sail even if there were some waves, thanks to Nikolaos's confidence and professionalism. The ship is in really great shape, clean and comfortable.
Nikolaos couldn't navigate with us, but was very kind in referring us to another company and skipper. Thank you Nikolaos. The skipper we had was Michalis, navigating with a Bavaria 44. Exceptional experience ! Best value for money! Thank you Michalis. We really enjoyed our time. The quickest 7 hours ever spent...
