    Excellent vacation and excellent way to see the greek isles

    My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our week long trip in the Saronic Gulf. Our boat was great, clean and comfortable. The crew was top notch. Giannis, the captain was fun and accommodating. He made suggestions and changed course to avoid bad weather. Eva, our hostess, was brilliant. Her cuisine was fabulous and she took such care of us. We would definitely book again with this company, especially with this crew. The only negative was having to leave.

  • What documents do I need to travel to Greece?

    For EU residents, for a stay up to 30 days you will need a valid passport. For non EU residents, check with the consulate of their country of origin for information on formalities.
  • Is everyone on board English-speaking?

  • Who takes care of my transport to Athens?

    Your flight tickets can be booked by the GlobeSailor team. All you have to do is specify it to your advisor when you book your cruise.
  • Does the boat operate only with the sails?

    It depends on the weather. When the winds are strong, the skipper will use the sails to sail silently. On days with calmer winds or to reach the stopovers on schedule, the skipper may need to use the engine. The engine is also used when entering and leaving the marinas. We cannot guarantee a minimum time of using the sails. The skipper will do their best to use the sails as much as possible and involve passengers in manoeuvres.
  • How does half board work?

    During your cruise, you benefit from the half board package, including breakfast and one meal (lunch or dinner) per day prepared with fresh and local products. Soft drinks and alcoholic beverages are not included. Check the terms and conditions of your quotation carefully. On request, your advisor can send you the menus proposed on board.
