What To Expect
Your sailing cruise experience starts when you're picked up either from your hotel or a designated meeting point depending on the location of the accommodation by our shuttle transportation to reach the embarkation point or meet us directly at the sailing yacht. One of your cruise representatives greets you and gives you an overview of the cruise itinerary. A short ride follows from the small dock in order to embark the sailing yacht anchored out in Agios Ioannis bay.
Meet your cruise representative and friendly crew, and get a safety briefing before climbing aboard the yacht. If you like, help the skipper raise and trim the sails and get a lesson in steering as you make your way out into the bright blue Aegean, or you can simply soak up the sun on deck.
Drop anchor in an unspoiled bay at the island of Rhenia for a swim and snorkel break off a golden sand beach. When you've had your fill of the water, enjoy a delicious light lunch right on board featuring either Italian pasta with Greek Flavored dressing and Salad, or a local Mediterranean style buffet and fresh local fruits, and a selection of complimentary house wine and soft drinks.
Then, go ashore at Delos, the birthplace of the Apollo according to Greek mythology, for a licensed guided tour of the UNESCO-listed ruins of the ancient Greek trading and pilgrimage city (entrance fee not included). Explore the remnants of temples and marketplaces, see sacred artifacts in the museum, and hike up Mt. Kythnos for spectacular views of the island and surrounding sea.
Climb back aboard the yacht in the late afternoon and start the return voyage to Mykonos, where the full-day tour concludes.
Say goodbye—in Greek style—with a farewell shot drink toast.

What a wonderful way to spend the day.
Captain Babis and first mate Fotis were the perfect hosts and made the trip the best it could be.
A motor out to Delos. Then a tour around Delos island with our brilliant guide. Then back to the boat with a short trip to Rhenia to drop anchor. Lots of time for swimming in the turquoise waters and sunbathing. A delicious lunch with wine. Then a fantastic sail back to Mykonos.
Highly recommend this trip and a must do!

Amazing place and amazing experience. Met some lovely people from all around the world. Silia and Elisa were amazing guides. The food on the boat was so tasty and good. The boat men were also very helpful. Loved the clear blue and green water and the Delos and Reneia islands. Overall it was a good day trip.

This was a cool experience! The yacht was nice and the staff was very attentive to the needs of the whole group. We started with swimming in the clear water and then we had lunch and headed to Delos. Our guide was informative and the tour made sure you were prepared with an extensive list of what to bring and by providing water because it gets hot in the sun over Delos. The guide explained all about the site and helps us envision life in that time. We really enjoyed exploring the ruins! If you like water and history, this is the experience for you!

Beautiful water and fun on the ship. The lunch was good and plentiful. However the guide to the Delos ruins was not fluent enough in English that she needed to be so we missed out on some of the history. She was bubbly and very nice but she needed to practice a little more for the commentary.
Also, the excursion was advertised as snorkeling. Where we went there wasn't anything to see. This excursion should be listed as a swimming and boating excursion so that you are not disappointed when you don't snorkel. Still being on the boat with beautiful water and swimming in Greece you can't complain!

Weather was very windy but the crew were great, confident and experienced. Delios was fab as was lunch and the opportunity to swim. Really good day, highly recommend

We were picked up at our hotel in a very nice Mercedes van. The boat, captain, and crew were excellent. The guired tour of Delos was prefessional and informative. Our guide is also a school teacher and provided excellent background on the importance of Delos as a place of worship and commerce. The food on the boat was delicious and the swim was refreshing.

Good cruise, the crew took good care of us. Food was Pasta served with greek salad, and some fruits with wine. We enjoyed the tour on delos and the quiet time whens anchored in close the Rhenia.
There was some confusion regarding the location of start of the cruise. It’s advertised Viator that it’s close to Olia Hotel, however it was closer to Paralia Agios Ioannis

This was a very good trip well organised. The fact it set off early was a godsend as we had almost finished our very good guided tour before the masses hit the island off the big boats! The lunch was as quite tasty and more than enough plus they were very free and easy with the complementary drinks. Snorkelling was fun and generally chilly on the boat there and back was most pleasant.

What a fantastic day! The history of Delos island as well as the beautiful waters of Rhenia island is the perfect combination for a great day
Celeste_H, Sep 2024
I would recommend this tour. The staff was friendly and organized as well as the tour guide on Delos very informative. It was a fun combination of history and enjoying the beautiful sea waters swimming. Definitely worth the cost!
Roisin_H, Sep 2024
The trip was amazing the crew went above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome and kept us all topped up in drinks and the food was amazing. The scenery was beautiful and the ancient ruins where something else. Our next stop was unreal. There you could swim and we were once again topped up with drinks and food. Would highly recommend this excursion
