    Der Guide war sehr sympathisch, freundlich und motiviert. Obwohl wir eine deutschsprachige Tour gebucht hatten, war alles auf Englisch, was für uns kein Problem war. Die Zeit zum Schwimmen vom Boot aus, war ausreichend. Die Insel Kistra ist wirklich sehr klein, der Guide wusste viel zu erzählen. Wer sich einen Blick auf die Unterwasserwelt erhofft, bekommt wenig zu sehen.

    Super Guide gewesen der uns in der kurzen Zeit auch einiges über die Geschichte erzählt hat. War zwar alles auf Englisch, was aber kein Problem darstellte. Die Art und Weise wie er das erzählt hat war richtig gut.

    Leider hatten wir keine Busnummer o.ä., sodass wir bei jedem eintreffenden Bus nachfragen mussten, welcher nun der Richtige ist. Trotz Buchung auf Deutsch hatten wir einen englischsprachigen Guide und musste den Kindern alles übersetzen. Die Crew war sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Da das Boot jedoch sehr voll war, haben wir von dem Glasboden kaum etwas gesehen, was nicht so schlimm war, da wir nur eine antike Säule zu sehen bekamen. Ein netter Badeausflug, aber leider nicht mehr und nicht weniger.

    Bus hatte mehr als 30 Minuten Verspätung. Bis wir am Boot ankamen waren es 45 Minuten. Der Guide meinte, dass das UNS von der Tour abgezogen wird - was auch wirklich geschah. Ein Schwimm-Stop fiel daher ganz aus, die ganze Tour wirkte hektisch und unentspannt, was sich auch auf die Gäste übertrug. Quasi halbe Tour zum vollem Preis.

    Guter Transfer. Guide an Board sehr sympathisch und humorvoll. Die Tour ist familienfreundlich und wir hatten das Glück eine kleine Gruppe zu haben. Es fanden 3 Stopps statt, Kastri und 2 Badestopps. Für unsere Tochter (6 Jahre) hatte sie genau die richtige lànge.

Our lively pirates will ensure everyone gets into character with a free bandana, face painting and lots of exciting pirate-themed games. You'll learn all the swashbuckling techniques you need, from sword fighting to map reading. And don't forget, a sharp-eyed pirate is always on the lookout for clues, so stay alert for hints that lead to the hidden treasure.When we drop anchor at Pserimos, feel the cool sea breeze as you splash into the water for a swim, or join in more of the playful games and activities we have planned.
