Enjoy Yachting on our Greek Island Cruises, Aegean Cruises & Red Sea Cruises

If you would like to experience the joys of traveling by yacht in the Eastern Mediterranean, we have several options available for you: private yacht charters, Share a Sail programs, and scheduled yacht departures.

Private Yacht Charters
We can arrange a crewed boat for you, with a fully customized itinerary. There are a variety of boats and yachts available, based on the number of passengers in your group, and we work with a well-established third-generation family company headquartered in Greece in coordinating all the arrangements.

Share A Sail
If your party is too small for you to charter a sailing yacht, or the cost to steep, you can still enjoy a one-week Greek Isles cruise on a 4-cabin, 8-passenger, 51-foot sailing yacht. You can book just one or up to four cabins on a one-week scheduled sailing operating May through October, and share the boat.

Each day includes four to seven hours of sailing with a swim stop and lunch. Overnghts are always in port to enjoy local tavernas. Explore a new island, new beach, new harbor and new places to explore each day. The itinerary includes: Marina Zea (Piraeus), Cape Sounio, Kea, Delos, Mykonos, Paros and the Bay of Naoussa, Andiparos, Folegandros, Poliegos, Sifnos, Serifos, and Poros.

While cabins are small, all are comfortable with private showers and toilet, a double bed or double plus pullman bed. Rates from about $1,200 per person based on double occupancy, plus port charges.

Scheduled Departures
For those who wish to cruise the Eastern Mediterranean on a smaller yacht rather than a larger cruise ship, in addition to smaller cruise ships like Windstar Cruises, we also have a series of scheduled departures on a 53-passengers 183-foot sleek, contemporary megayacht.

Cabins are 135-feet on average, with either double-bed or twin-beds, flat screen TVs, DVD players, music channels, mini frideges, hairdryers and A/C. All cabins have large windows and en suite bathrooms with private shower.

Meals are served in the Dining Room in a single seating, or on deck al fresco. The yacht also has a bar lounge, sun deck, mini spa, and swimming platform.

Three 7-day itineraries are available on these scheduled departures:
Classical Greece, offering the best of the Aegean Islands and Crete, April thru October, visiting:
Piraeus, Kea, Delos, Mykonos, Santorini, Heraklion and Rethymnon (Crete), Monemvassia, Nafplion, and Spetes.
Aegean Odyssey, offering the best of the Aegean islands and Turkey, April thru October, visiting: Piraeus, Delos, Mykonos, Kusadsi, Patmos, Santorini, Folegandros, and Kea.
Red Sea Wonders, featuring Egypt and Jordan, late November thru early April, visiting: Hurghada (Egypt), Sharm el Sheikh, Ras Mohamed, Aqaba, Taba, and Safaga.
