What to Bring

Pack light but wisely: sunglasses, sun hats, swimwear, sunscreen, and a passport or ID. The boat ride is open, so protection from the sun and hydration are key.

Considerations

While the experience is highly praised, it’s worth noting that this tour isn’t suitable for pregnant women, those with heart problems, or wheelchair users due to safety reasons.

The yacht itself, the Raptor, offers a sleek, modern environment that feels both luxurious and welcoming. The Bluetooth audio system lets you set your soundtrack, turning the journey into a personalized party or relaxing retreat.

The scenery — from the moon-like Sarakiniko to the rugged bear rocks — is breathtaking. Several reviews mention how guides are very knowledgeable, providing interesting insights about the sites and ensuring safety.

The overall value depends on your priorities. If you seek privacy, luxury, and a flexible itinerary in a stunning setting, this tour offers an excellent experience. However, if budget is a concern, consider that the price reflects a high-end, personalized service.

Weather dependency is a factor, as routes may change for safety reasons. That said, the team actively monitors forecasts and adjusts, minimizing inconvenience.

Who Should Consider This Tour?

This private speedboat cruise is ideal for travelers who value exclusivity and comfort, and who want a tailor-made experience rather than a crowded group tour. It’s perfect for romantic getaways, special celebrations, or intimate family adventures.
