Our guide was great as we scheduled easy pick up and drop off locations. Each winery had a different feel as they were located in different parts of southern Santorini. Tour was finished off with Venetsanos winery which was located in the cliffs overlooking the caldera. We would recommend.

We were sailing to Naxos with a group of 16 friends. In other to be in time for the cooking class, we had to be in the port at least at 15 hs. When we arrived, the harbor master informed us there was no mooring available. So we called Anna and she made sure that the mayor of Naxos got involved to arrange the 2 spots we needed. How lucky we were, because the cooking lessons and diner were excellent. Anna was very good in keeping the group under control. It started with picking all the ingredients from the garden/farm, next to clean, cut and prepare the dishes, while everybody had a good time. This is a very nice program to do with friends or family. We liked it for sure.

We will confess that we did not take the tour, we were on a cruise and did not attempt to schedule any outside activities. That said, we were in a restaurant on two separate days when Aristotle brought in a group and ordered wine and tomato fritters for them. He was charming and knowledgeable so we asked for his card, if/when we return, we will look him up and book a tour. His web site offers very detailed information for those wanting to gauge whether this tour is for them.

Chose Polco as reviews were so good, and didn't regret it at all. All swimming stops were amazing, water was so blue & clear. Crew were really friendly. Boat had sufficient outdoor and indoor space & not overloaded with people so no worries about shade etc. They have a paddleboard & snorkels on board. As it was October (low season) & COVID year (super low season) they offered one tour only, a mix - the catamaran boat on the sailboat's route. This isn't a booze cruise crammed with 18 year olds & music blaring (as some of the other tour companies seemed to be) - that is not to say seemingly unlimited beers/ouzo etc aren't included, but vibe is a bit more chilled.

We stayed a whole week on the boat and it never got boring. We sailed around several Greek islands and it was so much fun! Even though we were a lot of people on the boat, there still was a good amount of privacy :) Toby was such a great skipper! While we were in Greece there was a hurricane. Even though most people wanted to explore and venture out, Toby never took unnecessary risks and yet still managed to give us the adventure we wanted. I felt very safe 100% of the time. Thanks for an unforgettable time!

We booked a full day 9 hour cruise for our family of 6 adults and it was the highlight of our Santorini holiday! The trip was tailored to suit our requests, Panos the skipper was amazing, making sure we were safe when on board and in the water and provided local knowledge and history of the places we visited. Yanis treated us like royalty filling our glasses with wine and water, helping us in and out of the boat and making sure we were all pampered! The boat is large enough to comfortably take 6 adults and we had full use of it. The food served was delicious and freshly made. We went snorkelling, walked up the volcano at our request, swam in the hot springs, saw all the local sights Red Bay, White Bay and saw the best Santorini sunset together as a family from the boat. I would definitely recommend the trip to anyone. Thank you for such a wonderful day!

This experience was the highlight of our time in Mykonos. The food was amazing - home grown or made on Matt, our host’s, granddad’s farm. We also loved that we were getting off the beaten track and discovering the chapel and sights up in the mountains. Matt was accommodating, knowledgeable and made sure we all had a great time. We actually went in July 2019 but I took too long in making the review so couldn’t select that date. But it was too good not to share!
