Capt and skip,
Thanks for an adventurous trip aboard Alexandros this past week. I couldn’t leave Greece without seeing your beautiful islands by boat. It was enjoyable to spend it with you guys. When I am back in Greece, I’ll get in touch.

Antonis you have been a very capable, confident captain. Keep it up!

This was a dream trip for us and although the weather didn’t cooperate, the crew did! You went out of your way to keep us safe and make every moment memorable. Sailing in the middle of the night to pulling into assorted harbors to wait out the weather.
What are the odds - our first sailing trip would be accompanied by a tropical hurricane. Who else gets to do this trip since 1947. Thank you for every memorable moment.
Much love and safe sailing.

What a fabulous week we had. A BIG thanks to Maria and Antonis for making it so special. We all arrived as strangers, but made friends for life. The 2 of you made our trip so much fun and we truly appreciate all your hard work... we know that it must have been tiring looking after us lot! You did such a great job!
See you soon for the next sailing adventure.
Love,Michaela A. and Jess N. (Botswana and UK)

Odyssey trip with Alexandros greeted by Maria and skipper Antonis. For me it was a dream come true to be able to see what I read in my adolescence in Homer epic book. The weather was perfect, I felt secure under Antonis knowledge of the boat, terrain, docking, and ports.
I felt very comfortable by Maria’s easy way of explaining, talking, and showing a thing or two of her cooking skills, and hospitality.
In a nutshell: I loved it! Thank you again for making my vacation become a memorable and joyful one.

What a fabulous week we had on Alexandros!! 6 strangers on 1 yacht became a holiday of a lifetime. Antonis & Maria went beyond their duty to look after us. We can honestly say that the cooking done by Maria was some of the best Greek cuisine that we have eaten.
Both Antonis & Maria had a combined wealth of knowledge that was extremely impressive! We would highly recommend this trip to anyone wanting a completely relaxing sailing holiday. We created great memories and made lifelong friendships.
Blessed to have had Antonis & Maria as our hosts.

Maria and Antonis,
Thank you both for a wonderful week at sea! You put on perfect weather for us and Maria’s cooking is just delicious. We will always remember our voyage on the Alexandros, having the yacht to ourselves and loving your company and knowledge of the ionian islands. We loved our secret beach Atokos.
Our very best wishes to you both for the future. xx

Dimitra and Fanis,
What a memorable week! We never imagined we would sail the Ionian Sea and really never imagined that it would be on such a comfortable, beautiful boat, with our such expert and friendly crew. Being able to relax while watching you both working together to manage anchoring, docking etc. was such a treat.
We will remember the fantastic lunches, special cocktails, fresh bakery bread at breakfast and so much more. Great choices of beaches and harbors and thanks for ordering beautiful weather. It will be cold back in British Columbia.
Thanks so much for a fantastic holiday!!

Dear Dimitra and Fanis,
Thank you for such a wonderful week sailing the Ionian sea. We couldn’t have asked for a better crew to introduce us to sailing or a better location. We have so many highlights , but some of them include:
- each bay cove and beach we stopped to swim
- the thunderstorm!
- amazing food (special thanks Dimitra for getting our kids to eat and enjoy octopus)
- plenty of card games-snorting with laughter (Fanis with an “Th”)
- very entertained by Ty’s nude antics in the sea - and of course “Harbor Drama” episode one!!
Much love and thanks to you all. We shall be back.
Keren, Paul, Noah, Tia, Indi & Ty N. (Australia, UK)
Thanks for the Vodka in the middle of the night!
P.S. I am 10 years old! I will miss you and nudity swims.

Thanks Fanis and Maria for looking after us well this week. We had never been on a yacht before, so we were a little nervous and didn’t know what to expect. You made us feel very safe and welcome from the first day until the last one.
Maria, it was great to have you around all day smiling and telling us stories and of course cooking us some amazing food.
Fanis, you made us feel very safe and comfortable on board. We appreciated how careful you are at making sure everything was done properly and our safety was your priority. You also made sure you took us to the best swimming spots in Greece!
We can’t thank you both enough. his was our first but definitely not our last sailing experience!

Lefkas – Lefkas, 22-29 July 2018
What an amazing week! Our crew, Fanis and Dimitra, better known as Finest and Cinderella (long story) were amazing. The boat, the ports we went to, swimming in the bays, and the sailing lessons were great. And the food… Fantastic!
We had a fantastic week and are sad to be going home. Hopefully will be back for another adventure.

Sailing was great - max 30 miles in a day. Look at how much diesel we saved you! Fanis…weather? Well, last two days were amazing but who can control that? Food - better that any Greek restaurant we have eaten at. Scenery - just beautiful. Glad we have seen the Ionian sea before it is wall to wall with yachts.
Thanks Fanis and Maria,

Thank you for a wonderful time.
