Great day with Makis!

Published on Jul, 2024

Book this! Planning for our boat trips was so easy and organized with Ariadne! Our family of five had the absolute best day with Makis! He was knowledgeable, safe, friendly snd spoke excellent English. The most gorgeous beaches, swimming in crystal clear water, a delicious lunch & wonderful conversation. Visited Balos, Elafonisi, Falasarna, and more. This was a full day trip and I didn’t want it to end. One of our favorite days of our vacation. We are already planning our next trip to Crete and we’ll be doing excursions with Seaze the Day again!

Amazing Day Trip Tour!!

Published on Jun, 2024

Our full day with Captain Gregory and Niko was truly more than we could have asked for. The tour for myself, husband, and two children to the beaches I had requested and then some, accompanied with a local lunch and snacks along the way was truly the experience of a lifetime and we couldn’t have asked anything more. We loved learning about the culture and the history. The beaches are breathtaking, I cannot put it any other way. Experiencing them via private boat with this company is the BEST way to do it!!!

Best boat day cruise ever!

Published on Jun, 2024

Absolutely the best boat excursion we have ever done! Captain Gregory and Nico show us a great time, all the beautiful sites and beaches, and then cooked us a delicious meal on the beach! The boat was perfect! The whole experience, a full 10 hour excursion, was worth every penny! We will definitely book this again when we return next time! Thank you for the amazing experience!

Absolutely Incredible!!!!

Published on Jun, 2024

BEST DAY EVER!!!!! I highly highly recommend! The company was so easy to work with and booked us an amazing trip - I had a very large group and they even arranged transport to the port for us. All of the captains were soo friendly and accommodating and treated us like kings and queens. It was the highlight of the trip! Excellent service!!

An amazing trip for my family

Published on May, 2024

My family had a wonderful experience, we were lucky to get a captain as I was last minute, my wife and kids were thrilled. My son was able to do a little fishing which he enjoyed and they all snorkeled even though it was a little chilly, they didn’t care though. We had an amazing experience and I would highly recommend. Great boat trip / fishing/ music station: easy 93.2 the best lol and tasty wine!!! Can’t say enough about our experience
