“No vacation is complete without getting on a boat at least once. Our scheduled sailing cruise had to be postponed one day due to inclement weather, but this was no problem for us. The folks at DanEri Yachts were easy to work with and communicated clearly. We had no problem meeting up on the port side of the Marina Café in Heraklion for our sunset cruise. The hosts were polite and gracious with drinks (juice, wine, etc.) and a spread of snacks (fresh fruit, chicken nuggets, cheese, breadsticks, charcuterie, etc.). The sunset cruise took us out to a cove in the southwest corner of the uninhabited isle of Dia -…”

“We had a great time! On the way out, waves were a little high for some of our party of 9, and a few of us felt a little seasick but the crew gave us fresh ginger to chew on which did the trick. Once we arrived at the island, there was plenty of time for snorkeling, paddle boarding and relaxing. Our captain even entertained us with his musical skills. The food was delicious (wine, cheese, olives, breadsticks, fresh fish, lasagna-like pasta with spinach, also veggies) and even all of the kids ate everything. The ride back was calm and relaxing. The crew was very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely…”

“The communication from the tour operator was excellent and they contacted us in advance to find out about the beer styles we most preferred to help tailor the tour. As nobody else had booked this particular tour slot we ended up with an unintentional private tour, which was even more special as our guide Stelios was able to give us lots of attention as well as being really informative about the area and the craft beer seen.
