We had the most incredible honeymoon sailing trip with YachtSailing.Gr! Not only were we celebrating our honeymoon, but it was also my husband's birthday on the day we boarded. Maria (our Hostess) and Spiros (our Captain) surprised us with a birthday celebration, and they did it again for my birthday on our last day of sailing while we were exploring the Temple of Poseidon. Their thoughtfulness, care for us, and attention to detail made our trip unforgettable.

This was truly the best vacation of our lives. We chose to have our own Captain and Hostess for the trip, and it was worth every penny. While you can opt to sail without a Captain or Hostess, we highly recommend paying the extra cost for the best experience. With an experienced crew, you never have to worry about sailing in changing weather conditions, buying provisions, cooking meals, cleaning, or finding the best hidden locations that only locals know about.

Spiros and Maria were absolutely phenomenal! Spiros, our Captain, was not only a skilled sailor but also an incredible guide. His deep knowledge of the Cyclades islands ensured we visited the most beautiful and secluded spots. He navigated through varying weather conditions with ease, making us feel safe and relaxed throughout the journey.

Maria, our Hostess and Chef, was nothing short of amazing. Her culinary skills were top-notch, treating us to delicious meals that highlighted the best of Greek cuisine. Her warm personality and attentiveness made us feel pampered every single day. Maria took care of all the details, from shopping for provisions to keeping everything spotless, allowing us to fully enjoy our vacation without a worry in the world.

Every day, Spiros and Maria went above and beyond our expectations. They provided excellent recommendations for restaurants, sights to see, and helped with renting cars and arranging any other accommodations we needed. Their hospitality and dedication to making our trip perfect were evident in everything they did. They truly made us feel like royalty.

The Greek people are incredibly warm and welcoming to visitors, and the beauty of the Cyclades islands is beyond words. Over seven days, we stopped in Kythnos, Serifos, Milos, Sifnos, and Kea. Each location was like something out of a storybook—absolutely beautiful with charming shops, delicious food, and amazing people. The crystal-clear water in stunning blue-green hues was mesmerizing.

On the last day, I cried when Maria and Spiros had to leave. They had become more than just our crew; they felt like family. Their kindness, professionalism, and genuine care made our trip truly special.

The whole trip was magical and everything we could have asked for and more. We can't say enough good things about every member of the YachtSailing.Gr team and everyone we met along the way. We can't wait to come back to Greece and spend another magical week with Spiros and Maria.

Book your next vacation with YachtSailing.Gr for an unforgettable experience!

In June 2024 me and six other family members set sail on the Full House catamaran with Skipper Spyros and hostess Maria. For seven days we sailed through the Cyclades and visited the following islands:
1. Kythnos
2. Serifos
3. Paros
4. Naxos
5. Rineia (swimming hole for a few hours)
6. Syros
We had an amazing adventure at each of the islands where we explored, swam, shopped, and ate some incredible Greek food. I highly recommend booking The Full House yacht with Spyros and Maria whose knowledge and expertise helped guide us towards having a relaxing experience while capturing the culture and beauty of each island. They listened to us and helped us arrange taxis, rental cars, recommended sites to visit and restaurants to eat at each of the islands. We didn't have to worry about breakfast, lunch or shopping for food because Maria took care of all of that. She is an amazing cook who even went out of her way to make special meals for my niece who is a picky eater. We were all sad to part ways with Spyros and Maria by they end of the week because they felt like family! This was the most amazing travel experience I've ever had and would highly recommend to anyone looking to explore the Cyclades!

We had the time of our lives on the full House for a week. 8 of us from MN decided to rent a boat to sail the islands of Greek and it was the best vacation ever! Captain Spyros (great sense of humor) lead us to incredible swimming spots, and our hostess Maria Manoleli was incredible, she really took care of us and her Greek meals were sooo gooood!!!
I would highly recommend the company and both Crew members! So happy we did it!!

What an amazing trip!! We booked a 1 week sailing trip with 4 couples. We were on the 50 foot catamaran “The Full House”. Our Captain Spyros and Hostess Maria were incredible and made our trip fantastic. Spyros is a very talented sailor keeping our ride enjoyable in all conditions. He recommended a fantastic itinerary taking into account our experience, preferences and weather conditions and we were never disappointed. Maria was a wonderful hostess and I would highly recommend including one on your charter. She really took all the stress out of our vacation and let us focus on relaxing. Her cooking was second to none and her meals were the best we ate all week. Maria and Spyros worked really well together as a team and had great recommendations for restaurants as well as good knowledge about each of the islands we visited. Our group was really focused on relaxing and spending a lot of time swimming and snorkeling. On a typical day we would wake up and either eat breakfast in port or travel to a nearby bay for breakfast and swimming. Afterwards we would travel to another bay where we would have lunch and swim some more before heading into our port for the night. Usually there was time to swim at the local beach or take a nap before getting cleaned up for dinner and shopping in the local town. We had on of our best vacations ever and would recommend sailing in Greece to everyone. Yacht Sailing GR was a great company to work with booking and planning was easy and their staff was friendly and answered all our questions throughout the entire process. They helped arrange all our transportation to and from the marina at the start and end of our trip and really made the whole experience as stress free as possible.

What an amazing trip! If I could....this would be my summer trip every year. We sailed through the Cyclades and we were able to visit 7 beautiful islands, each with its own flare and personality. The one concern I had going into this trip was the captain and hostess. What if we were teamed up with two people that were not much fun? It could throw off the entire trip. Well, within minutes of meeting hostess - Maria Manoleli and Captain Spyros Vasiliou, those concerns were put to rest. In fact, they made the trip! They are two of the kindest, sweetest and caring people I have meet. Maria was an amazing cook and Spyros was so helpful. They truly cared about our experience and went out of their way on numerous occasions to ensure we were well taken care of. They are both parents so interacting with our teen and tween was no problem. The boat was clean and well cared for. I would highly recommend Yacht Sailing and if you can....request Spyros and Maria. This is a once in a lifetime adventure to see one of the most beautiful and rich in history countries in the world. Thank you Yacht Sailing and Maria and Spyros!

We just returned from an amazing week. Together with 7 friends we enjoyed the great weather, food and beautiful places in Greece.

During this week we were very fortunate to have Spiros Vasileiou as our Skipper. Spiros wanted to make sure everybody felt comfortable on the boat so always checked the best options for the whole group.

He showed us different Islands and also beautiful spots on the main land. Also he shared nice options for dinner, arranged quad riding for us and wine tasting.

Even for October the weather was great and we could also enjoy two days of sailing. This was not just once in a lifetime experience, really worth to do again, so much more to explore.

We would really recommend Spiros as a skipper to anyone else and book him again when we come back!

Amazing trip! Had a great time sailing around the Greek islands with a group of 6. Skipper Costas Thanopoulos was kind, knowledgeable, and fun. He had great recommendations and was perfect for our “go with the flow” approach. He made sure we had a variety of activities and opportunities to relax, explore, and visit beautiful places.

Would recommend packing a lot of sunscreen (even more than you thought). Lots of time was spent on the boat languishing in the sun, so you don’t need to pack much more than a few swimsuits and cover ups. Make sure to have a good amount of Euros on hand to pay docking fees for different harbors and taxi drivers.

Costa was a great captain! We had the best time. We went to all the best local spots and restaurants.

We recently spent 7 days sailing the Aegean with Yacht Sailing GR. everybody onboard thoroughly enjoyed the experience, which was our first time chartering a yacht. The company were great to deal with leading up to the trip and promptly answered any queries we had.
Our skipper was Costas Thanopoulos who was first class. He is an absolute asset for the company. He listened to our requests and selected a route that took us to a great selection of islands with deserted coves and lovely villages. He was very welcoming from the moment we stepped aboard and nothing was too much trouble for him. Whatever our request, his stock reply was “yes, of course”. His knowledge of sailing, the islands and the seas was clearly evident and he had our safety at the forefront of his mind at all times.
I would highly recommend Yacht Sailing GR and particularly Costas as your skipper.
Thanks for a great trip.

We had a fantastic two-week cruise on The Full House with Captain Kostas and Hostess Aliki. Kostas customized our sailing adventure with a perfect balance of great sailing and visits to spectacular islands. He was incredibly knowledgeable about each island and provided valuable guidance when we went ashore. Aliki was a charming, fun hostess and an amazing chef - every meal was delicious, and she incorporated fresh local ingredients. She made special accommodation for one of us requiring a gluten free diet. We highly recommend this company and crew for an extraordinary sailing experience in the Greek Isles!

We found all the communication around the booking and planning with Yacht Sailing to be excellent. We had a zoom call with Eugene who really listened to our needs and helped our choices. Any following email communication was timely and helpful.
On arrival at the port we found every single member of staff to be so helpful and everything worked extremely well.
Our captain Costas was amazing! He truly made our trip. He had expert knowledge of sailing and these islands and had the best recommendations about what to do. We loved the route he took for us around the Cyclades and listened to our wishes. In each bay or port he shared his ideas so we could make the most of what to see and do. Costas was so intuitive to our different guests needs and wants and was extremely accommodating to ensure we were all happy! We were so grateful to have him as he made our trip and we have fantastic memories and photos to keep. We would definitely sail with him and the company again.
Thank you!!

Yachtsailing.gr is an incredible company to charter a sailboat for your summer holidays in Greece. The company is very professional in sailing services, email communications, very informative, and exceeded our expectations. We are a family of 4 and chartered “The Full House” which was better than the photos, very well maintained and came with a wonderful skipper Vasilis Psomas who is a very passionate captain. He took us to the most magical bays for swimming and overnight stay, he chose the best island destinations and restaurants and he explained to us everything about boat life and how to make the best out of our holiday. We are very thankful to have had him lead us to a very memorable trip and by the end of the trip we considered him part of our family. We highly recommend yachtsailing.gr for an unforgettable sailing experience!!!

Dear Jonne, Eugene and team, 

From the bottom of my heart, I would like to thank you for making our sailing dream to come true. From our first email exchange in 2019 to the moment I met you in Alimos Marina on August 13, 2022 you were dedicated to making our journey perfect. Three years of non-stop communication, multiple changes, Corona delays, Whatsapp meetings, tons of questions and doubts, verifications, schedule changes and split payments… you and your team handled everything professionally and with impeccable customer service. Your choice of Captain and Hostess made our 14 day journey a pure delight. I’m even convinced you had a hand in making sure the weather was perfect during these 2 weeks. We covered 326 miles, sailed for 42 hours, visited 11 islands and ports, and walked in many traditional villages. We swam in waters that were crystal clear and warm, anchored in picturesque bays and frolicked among the sandy beaches, white rocks and natural caves. The famous Greek cuisine and wine were perfectly accented by magical sunsets.
In the end, I took 3,700 pictures that barely begin to show the beauty I experienced. This trip was a true fairy tale. And it was all thanks to you, our Captain, our Hostess, and your team.

I hope we will have many more journeys like this in the near future.

Yours truly,

Rafael Derchansky

Just completed a fantastic trip on the Full House. Our skipper and hostess were amazing. The captain used his excellent judgement to maximize our experience in the weather conditions. He took us to a lovely variety of destinations in The Sarinoc Gulf and the Cyclades. He managed to sail a considerable portion of the trips, which we enjoyed greatly. Vicky’s food is the best we’ve tasted so far. We could not have hoped for a better crew! Can’t wait to come back next summer :)

It has been hard to find words that could capture the magic we experienced through our week of sailing with Yachtsailing.gr. We had never been to Greece and we had no sailing experience. Our group of four included my husband and I along with our 18yr old son and 19yr old nephew. I relied on reviews to help me plan our trip. Yachtsailing.gr is like having a “best friend” in Greece. Eugene, Maria, Alex, and Joanna...thank you all for helping us realize one of the best trips we have ever been on and for providing the most incredible customer service we have ever experienced. I honestly felt as though we had just met a new group of friends that truly cared about our well being. Eugene requires experienced skippers, and that is exactly what he provided us with our new, lifelong friend Captain Narayan! Thank you for giving us the best of it all! Our hostess Fedra and our skipper, Narayan, encompassed of all that is good in the world. We were so proud to be sailing with them both. Our favorite dishes throughout our entire time in Greece remain the dishes cooked by our amazing friend Fedra. We will forever be connected to Narayan who taught us the respect of the Aegean Sea, sailing, and his amazing music as a percussionist. Fedra taught us the true spirit of Greece through food, spirit and dance. To sum it up...great food, bongos, dance, Greek beer and wine on the best sailboat “Jackpot”.
Eugene, Maria, Alex, Joanna....thank you will never be enough.

My friends and I spent a week sailing the Saronic gulf in the beginning of August and it quickly became the highlight of our holiday. The Saronic gulf was the perfect route for us as it involved some incredible swimming spots with the most amazing clear blue water, a good amount of sailing time and some incredible islands to explore each day. I could not recommend our captain Petros enough. He was an absolute pleasure to have on the boat and if we ever get the chance to come back I will 100% be requesting to have him again. We are still amazed how he managed to dock our boat first time, every time.. Even with 9 young New Zealanders getting in the way.

I recently booked my 30th birthday sailing trip with the team. From the moment I sent my request the team provided the most incredible service from answering questions to arranging special request items, nothing was too much trouble for them! If you are questioning which company to use then here is your answer!

My wife and I cannot praise enough the experience that all the wonderful people we met arranged for us.
During our planning and early communications, Eugene, and Joanna were both extremely professional, but also very friendly and accommodating, paying attention to our needs and desires and making useful suggestions. They made the planning of the trip feel like a breezing collaboration combining our desires and their expertise. This created a cozy feeling that we were in good hands form the get go.
And indeed we were! Captain George Maleas was the best we could have hoped for. During our travels in the saronic islands, he seemed to always know the kinds of places we wanted to visit before we did, and he delivered spectacularly. Of course, his avid knowledge of every little secret beach and local gem only served to maximize this experience, when he was making his suggestions on where to head or what to do next. Above everything else, captain George was a delight to travel with, we had an amazing time in his company. He made us feel safe and relaxed, while being friendly and joyful. Maybe that's at the end the most important thing, enjoying your vacation with people that you can connect with and enjoy their company.
Highly recommended for quality vacations.

A group of us booked a Catamaran for a week in August.

Our boat was impeccably clean and luxurious.

Captain’s intimate knowledge of the Greek sea and islands was priceless. He was always willing to assistance us with any request. We highly recommend Captain George and Yatchsailing.gr.

My friends and I chartered a catamaran this summer and we were not disappointed! The trip and experiences over exceeded our expectations and our Captain was AMAZING! He listened to what our goals were for the trip and advised on locations and sea conditions to get the most of our journey. Captain George gave us the vacation we wanted and needed!

We were 2 families on board with children. We had a fantastic trip. That was our 1st experience and our skipper was very kind and perfect skipper. He is very skilled and let us discovered wonderfull places. Our boat was also very confortable and yachtsailing fully at our disposal to upgrade our trip. Tanks all the teams and our skipper. Love it !
