We spent our last day in Crete sailing with Nikos. It was the perfect way to end our trip to Crete. The sailing was great and Nikos made us a delicious lunch he called snacks with meatballs his great aunt made, Greek salad, bread, wine fruit, sweets. He was very friendly and knowledgeable about the places we passed on the sail. We would definitely do this again if we come back.to Crete!

My wife and I had a fantastic full-day sailing experience with Nikos! This was one of the highlights of our trip to Crete! We met Nikos in the morning at the Souda dock, just a short drive from our hotel in Chania. Nikos took us aboard, and we set sail into the Souda Bay. Nikos explained to us the basics of sailing and gave us a thorough lesson on controlling the sails and driving the boat. With his guidance, we took the controls and sailed along the beautiful coast of Crete. Nikos pointed out some very interesting historical landmarks along the way and told us about the history of the island. Around mid-day, we anchored near a small, quaint beach, and swam and explored, while Nikos prepared us a delicious lunch. After our tasty meal, we slowly made our way back, just in time for the start of the sunset. On the way back, we relaxed on the front of the boat and enjoyed the scenery, while Nikos took the controls.This was a really fun and unique experience, and we really enjoyed the private aspect of the tour. Thank you Nikos for the great time!

What a fantastic experience. We had a full day private boat trip, my husband and I. None of us have been on a sailboat before. Nikos was just brilliant. He explained about sailing, the wind, the area and also gave us the chance to do some sailing on our own. My husband was stearing the boat, we pulled the ropes and trimmed the sails etc. We started in Souda port, went along Kalami and went for a short visit ourside Almyrida before we set the sail for Marathi on the other side of the bay. There we anchored up and went for a swim while Nikos prepared a delicious lunch for us, consisting of Greek salad, bread, meatballs, pasta etc. On the sailing back to the port, laying on the deck in the shade under the big sail we even fell asleap for some minutes, until Nikos came to serve us some fresh fruit. We had a fantastic, relaxing, interesting and safe sailing experience. Thank you very much, Nikos! I will highly recommend this trip.

We hired a full day sailing trip, and it was absolutely wonderful! What a GORGEOUS SAILBOAT, we felt like VIPs. Just my husband and I for a pre-Birthday celebration, we had so much fun, jumping off and swimming while Nikos cooked an amazing meal. I ate the best olives in my entire life on his sailboat, thank you Nikos mom for those fabulous olives and his aunt for the yummy meatballs. I highly recommend hiring Nikos, he is experienced and professional, really knows the wind and his boat well. The meal was fantastic, very Creten, simple yet fresh and delightful. A lot of fun and we felt very comfortable, as though we were with family. We had a highly enjoyable day, we will do this again....and again I am certain :)

We spent a full day sailing around Souda Bay with Nikos, and we couldnt have asked for a better time. All 6 of us agreed that this was the highlight of our trip to Chania. We started the day by sailing out of Souda Bay. Nikos is a skilled sailor, and knows the area very well. He was very thorough in explaining the basics of sailing, and we enjoyed his knowledge of the bay, its surrounding areas and hearing about his experiences sailing throughout the years. After we all took a turn at sailing, we anchored in a little secluded bay. Nikos prepared us an amazing lunch, while we all dove into and snorkeled in turquoise, crystal clear waters. We sailed back to port just around the time we were supposed to. Nikos went above and beyond and even called us some taxis to drive us back to Chania, after our ride fell through. All in all, this was an amazing experience, Nikos was an incredible host and we cant wait to do this again on a future trip to Chania. I would highly recommend this trip for anyone that has the time while in Crete.

Nikos sails with a sailors heart using the experience and skills he has gained over the years. Both of us are competent sailors yet Nikos provided two days of exceptional sailing (as going once was just not enough)! With good fortune we found the wind both times and were able to experience two separate coves where we swam and enjoyed fantastic freshly made meals by Nikos. Communication with Nikos was simple and straight forward using email and Whatsapp. A huge thank you to Nikos for providing two fantastic experiences and for sharing his passion for sailing with us!

Nikos is a wonderful host. He was waiting for us when we arrived. We had beautiful weather. Very comfortable Sailboat, with plenty of room. Nikos also made a great lunch while we swam in a quite Bay.

We were looking for a day on a beautiful sailing boat, visiting some coastal beauty spots, eating a fantastic lunch and swimming in the most welcoming bay. Nikos delivered and then some. We had great fun helping with the sailing, which none of us had done before, Nikos was great company and his freshly cooked lunch was a delight. We all agreed that the day had flown by, always a good sign.
