Absolutely recommendable !!! We had a wonderful cruise with Popi & George today. They are fantastic hosts - very professional, warm and friendly. We all felt very comfortable from the first second. The boat is great, very spacious with plenty of seating. Below deck there is the possibility to change clothes and a small toilet. We made an unforgettable stop for a swim and were spoiled with the best dinner & great cake. Plus delicious wine, raki and lots of fun with the two hosts. We can recommend a trip with Popi & George to everyone who is looking for something special and the true luxury of real hospitality. We will definitely be back and will carry this day in our hearts until then....

Absolutely loved this boat trip. Mostly because poppi was such a great host and the trip was very good value. And not packed with people like other boats.

We had a wonderful sunset trip aboard Popi and George’s boat. They were very flexible about dates/times and activities. It was very easy to book and Popi responded to emails promptly. The boat is very comfortable with benches along both sides, a dining table and plenty of shade cover. It was also a very safe configuration for young kids (compared to some of the motor boats other companies offer, as they can’t accidentally fall out). Also useful to know that there’s a proper toilet under deck, essential with young kids! We were 4 adults and 4 young kids and everyone had a brilliant time. As soon as we got on the boat (you have to “walk the plank” which the kids thought was great fun), Popi offered us drinks - white, rose or red wine, beers, soft drinks including fizzy orange and iced tea. We were also offered nuts and crisps and the kids had lollies. Later on we had dinner - homemade by our host Popi. Orzo pasta, salad, pitta with Greek yoghurt, chicken with wine jus etc. Dessert was pineapple with greek yoghurt and cherries in syrup followed by watermelon. All delicious! We swam in crystal clear waters, snorkelled and saw some beautiful scenery. On our return the hotels on the shoreline were lit up as well as the fascinating buildings on the island of Spinalonga, very pretty. I’m so glad that we went with this company. They are clearly honest and hardworking people who want their guests to have the best possible experience. Thanks Popi and George! Next time we

Great trip today George and Popi where wonderful hosts full of knowledge about the local area and the Food was amazing, wishing them all the best for next season, the Walker and Bourne and family.

We had a wonderful trip with Popi and George. We did a 4 hour sunset semi-private cruise, stopping off for swimming/snorkelling. Lovely traditional food provided which we all enjoyed. Would highly recommend. Thank you Popi and George 😊😘

We had a brilliant time with George and Popi yesterday on our boat trip, they were very hospitable. My wife suffered badly from sea sickness for the first part of the trip and they were always looking for ways to look after her and help her feel better. They had bought foam woggles and life jackets for the children and less able swimmers to make sure they were safe, provided food and drink and knew all the best spots for swimming. I would advise bringing your own swimming goggles and snorkels if you want to get the most out of the swims. This trip was far more personalised and intimate than the big boat trips we saw and when out and it turned out to be our family and one other having sole use of the boat. We would highly recommend and great value 👍

Great great trip. We had a private cruise on Aug 2021 and I booked by email, thanks to Popi being helpful and responsive. We were two families of friends, and we asked to have it private to avoid contact with strangers on the cruise. This was a dealbreaker for other cruises, where you would have been sharing big but overcrowded boats. We managed to meet at our preferred time, and we brought some food for the children, but in hindsight we did not need at all. Popi prepared so much food (*delicious food*), but she also prepared our food for the (spoiled) children that wanted the ham and cheese sandwich instead of the greek taste. We decided for a 4 hours trip with option for another hour (that became 5.5h at the end), and went for a swimming cruise. Giorgios took us in very beautiful places with pristine waters. Even if you don't want to swim, those place are magical. My 4 years old, that is always in the "too cold, don't want to swim", did not want to leave.. Giorgios is very skilled as captain and makes you feel safe. My daughter slept in the captain quarter, cuddled by the waves and Giorgios guarded her while we enjoyed the trip. After he allowed the girls to take a taste of being sailors under his command ... They were so excited and I'm sure both of them will have forever memories of this trip.. they asked if we can have another the day after, but we were staying in a different city.. otherwise I would have had another one for sure! The boat is perfectly

We spent a wonderful cruise with George and Popi the 27th July, we were just 4 on the trip !!!! What a beautiful experience tu swim in the sea, snorkeling….. having dinner on the boat and having beautiful view….. Such nice and kind persons …… Many many thanks to you , George and Popi. Be sure that we’ll come back and speak about you and your beautiful Creta. Xxxxxx Marion and Emmanuel

awesome half day sailing cruise on 27th July. Great hospitality , food, fishing, swimming and of course scenery. Highlight of holiday. Avoid the overloaded bigger boats 🚢 and go with this company. you wont regret it!

To all readers. The perfect time off with your family in good company. Delicious home made food and drinks. Great boat trips around the islands, snorkeling, fishing ….

Paradise on earth. Popi and George are the nicest hospitable people you have met. Popi is a woman with big smile and very big heart. George and the Bay of Elounda are one...you will.never forget the boat trip with them. The high light of our family trip to Creta. Don't miss it.

If you want the best of all what creta is famous for, you will find it in this boat trip with popi and George. The boat is a fishermen traditional boat fully and beautifully renovated by captain George, a fisherman himself. Popi his wife is a person who represents all the beauty of elounda, warm, caring, a beautiful person. with a big heart. You will feel welcome immediately. The trip itself is a wonderful experience, obviously George knows every corner of the sea around Elounda. We are a family of spoiled swiss. we booked a private cruise and we have enjoyed every moment of it. Highly recommended. Marco

Excellent day out with Giorgos & Popi. Unfortunately 10 guests cancelled so to our advantage we were the only 2 on the boat and we were treated like VIP guests with a Chicken dinner, salad home made chocolate cake unlimited wine and drinks. We were taken around Spinalonga and seagull island and other places of interest, we stopped for swimming and given lots of information by Popi. Would definitely recommend we had a fabulous day..thank you so much for your hospitality.

Great experience! The couple who own the boat are very nice. Popi went out of her way to make sure our three kids were happy. She even watched them a bit so we could have a little alone time. We were served sandwich’s, homemade chicken, potatoes, dakos and more. Price was amazing! Thank you so much.

Had a great afternoon with Popi and George on lovely trip around Elounda Kolokitha/gull island. 10 out of 10 for your hospitality. Lovely day x

What can I say that will convince you that this was worth every euro not only for the trip but For the hospitality of Popi and George. They welcomed us with fresh traditional homemade greek fare and cold beer. Water was always available so was soft drinks. The local Knowledge of George's navigational skills took us to an idyllic part of Eloundas many water fronts to swim in crystal clear waters which were warm and not choppy. I saw many fish and felt totally relaxed whilst snorkeling. Tepid seas were welcome on a blistering hot day but when the sun was going down Wow like a warm bath. The food was excellent, homemade, and plentiful. My family was entertained by Popi and her traditional dancing whilst trying to teach me the moves to greek dance. We hired the boat for a very acceptable hourly rate. When the food was thrown in which was a 3 course meal mind, we really got the boat ride for free 4 hours was worth the price the more people in your party the more value you get because you hire the boat not based on per person policy. We hired this boat in the midst of covid 19 pandemic. Popi and George kept their distance and at no point did I feel at risk due to there actions. They wore masks and food was served hygienically. Hand sanitizer was always available. If travelling to Elounda I urge you to use the services of Popi and George's boat service you will not be disappointed. Thank you Popi And George. All the very best for your future. Alan and Sharon From Birmingham UK.

What an amazing boat trip! We hired privately for 11 of us and Popi and George were fantastic hosts from the time we stepped on until we got off. Fishing, swimming, snorkelling, jumping from the boat (first for my kids!) and the most fantastic home made food. We couldn’t have asked for more ... thank you for making it a day to remember with fab family memories x

fantastic experience, lovely people,we were a private trip for 11 people and we couldn't ask for any more.the trip was amazing,kids got to fish ,we swam in the sea,visited 2 bays to explore and had a beautiful lunch provided... definitely recommend this to everyone

Amazing boat trip with my family... thank you so much! We loved every minute, snorkelling, swimming, fishing! Lots of drinks and food on offer with the best host ever Popi! Would most definitely recommend! xx

Nous avons passé 4h30 avec Popie et son mari, une très belle expérience sur ce beau bateau. Boissons et repas du midi inclus! Baignades dans des eaux bleus... Imbattable rapport qualité prix et une belle expérience humaine!

Had a fab time today as a family of 9, jumping off the boat (my 14 year olds wish), fishing (my 16 year old caught the biggest fish), food and drink was lovely and can’t say enough about the helpfulness of the Giorgio and poppy - the owners/ shipmate/ hosts and captain/ now friends! Would definitely recommend! And on our return will be booking with them again!

What a fantastic day we had with Popi & George. Would definitely recommend their boat trip, the swimming from the boat, the delicious homemade food & the company. Excellent value for money & also given these strange times all necessary precautions where observed. See you next visit for sure X

The cost and service we received was outstanding 5*. Poppi & George go above and beyond to make this a boat trip to remember. amazing food too! Highly recommend

A truly amazing trip with fabulous Hosts. thankyou Popi and George x

Our group had an amazing day today with Popi and George on their boat. Such lovely people who looked after us so well. We were picked up at our hotel and taken to the boat, which is lovely with shade as well as space to sunbathe, then we set sail towards Spinalonga and enjoyed the amazing scenery before stopping for swimming and a fabulous homemade lunch. We even learned a traditional Greek dance. Fabulous end to our holiday - highly recommended.

Fantastic Cruise with George and Popi

Popi was very informative with her knowledge of the surrounding islands. we had a great swimming spot in a lovely bay, water is so crystal clear. we got to share there beautiful cake. dancing on the boat on way back. their wonderful warmth made our afternoon. this is definitely a trip i would recommend

Popi and George are the nicest hosts! So friendly and welcoming. A great day spent with great people. Plenty of food and refreshments too! Highly recommend. 😊

Best boat trip we have ever been on! Made us feel so welcome and at home, would more than recommend them! We are coming back next year! We even saw a turtle on our travels, which is a once in a life time experience!

So much fun on our sunset cruise on the 24th September. Giorgos and Popi, our hosts, are such a sweet and generous couple, and we had lots of laughs with the other guests. Lovely homemade nibbles, gorgeous homemade cake, and free flowing wine and raki! Encouraged by Popi, we also tried some Greek dancing for the first time. Needless to say, we weren't very good at it 😄. Book a trip with them and it will be one of the highlights of your holiday. Thank you Popi and Giorgos 😘😘

Fantastic day out with my sister on the boat with lovley Popi & George. Went around the island with close up view of Spinalonga & stops at lovely coves for swimming & snorkeling. The food & drink provided was plentiful & all homemade & just delicious! Would definitely recommend as they go to other spots away from the big busy boats. Such lovely people, has been best part of our trip. Thanks so much Popi & George for a wonderful day xxx

Superb service given by a wonderful couple. This was my second trip this week, and I can not speak highly enough of them. Great day out. I will do this again for sure.

We had a fantastic cruise with Popi and George, the hospitality we received was second to none, they provided us with a meze of cretan food,with a great selection of drinks, they are both so friendly. Giorgos was delighted to discover Jimmy one of our party was a keen fisherman so photos were being compared, Popi was so chatty, they couldn't do enough for us. The time just flew by, Popi and Giorgos we will be back. We all highly recommend this young couple and their great cruise.

Went on a trip today with my husband, we had a wonderful time. We had fabulous service from Popi and George great food and wine they made us feel really welcome. Brilliant swimming in the open sea, would definitely recommend to everyone

The best part of Elounda 5 star boat trip .... lovely food lovely experience thank you so so much for such a great time ....❤️❤️

If you come to Elounda you must take this trip. Poppy and George offer a wonderful, safe and unique experience on their boat. They are just lovely. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We had an amazing time with Popi and George. They are so welcoming and showed us the most beautiful sights as well as spoiling us with some gorgeous home made Greek snacks! Thank you ☺️

We can highly recommend for an amazing and memorable boat trip around the crystal clear waters of Elounda.... Popi and George are wonderful and welcoming hosts. We booked a private 4 hour trip with friends and went to some beautiful swimming spots away from the crowds. The traditional Cretan food that Popi supplied on board were absolutely delicious. Thank you so much Popi and George x

We had such a great time cruising with Popi and George last night. We went for a private cruise for 8 people. We stopped in a lovely cove and swam off the boat. Then had delicious homemade snacks and drinks. It’s been the highlight of our holiday. Popi was also so kind to my son who had a sore throat. Such a great experience. Would highly recommend. Claire

Thank you for a fantastic private boat cruise 🙌! Swimming , snorkeling and also some spontaneous dancing . The food is homemade and so well tasting and generous and we also got to taste some fresh seafood . I hope you all have the same luck as us to meet this genuine people as George and Popi / Pia and Bruno from Sweden

Just had an amazing private cruise. Lovely people and delicious home made food and refreshments. Fantastic hosts. Swimming, snorkelling and a close up view Spinalonga. Would recommended and excellent value.

I can’t say enough lovely things about this trip. The views and the crystal clear waters we were taken to was breathtaking. The food was beautiful and all home made by popi also provided drinks of choice wine/beer/soft drinks. Popi kept my very hypo 3 year old boy entertained and treated him as her own, gorge also was so lovely to myself and my family. We decided to book the sunset cruise after such a lovely experience and again wow it was simply amazing watching the sunset into the ocean and again the food and hospitality was incredible. Thank you so much guys ❤️❤️

Had a lovely day out with Popi and George yesterday. nice boat, and friendly hosts. A cruise around the back of Big Spinalonga Island with a stop for swimming in Turquoise water, followed by a fabulous lunch made by Popi, everything homemade ,even the olive oil and sea salt. One of the best meals I have had in Crete, (and I live here !) a leisurely cruise back with a very close look at Spinalonga was an added bonus. . This couple go out of their way to make your day wonderful, and the trip was exceptional value. Would thoroughly recommend

Had 2 great trips with Popi and George whilst in Elounda. Superb customer service, drinks and snacks. Plenty of seating and shade. Really great team and lovely boat.

Unique experience!! spectacular views!! Crystal clear waters!! owner Captain George and his wife are that kind of people you want in your life: kind happy and friendly!!

Excellent trips and attention to detail. Friendly. Great staff
