This is the best Boat...

Published on Oct, 2024

This is the best Boat Tour we have ever been on. From the start of the trip to the end, you are treated by Dimitri and Jessica like you are so special. The homecooked Greek meal created by Jessica was stupendous. Meanwhile, Dimitri made personal contact with every member of the passengers on board. The scenery was wonderful too,especially snorkeling in the aqua waters.

Highly recommend

Published on Oct, 2024

We had Captain Attila and his crew, and they were fantastic! Top-notch service and plenty of delicious food and drink. The two stops were out of this world, with stunning views & fun water activities. We were glad we brought our shoes because we hiked up to the Gramvousa fort which was really cool. This excursion was the highlight of our week on Crete, and we highly recommend it!

The best crew in Crete!

Published on Oct, 2024

We booked three boat tours with DanEri Yachts during our stay in Crete, and this one was hands down the best! No doubt Balos and Gramvousa were breathtaking, with crystal-clear waters perfect for swimming, but what truly set this tour apart was the exceptional service and the crew's genuine hospitality. Jessica made one of the best meals we had on the island, and her partner made sure we were always comfortable, bringing drinks to wherever we were relaxing on the boat and frequently checking in to see if we needed anything. It was easily one of the highlights of our week in Crete—if not the best!

Summer on a catamaran

Published on Oct, 2024

I had read the great reviews, so it was difficult for the staff to exceed expectations. However, they really lived up to expectations. The service provided by Dimitri, Jessica, and Yani was excellent. The food was delicious. The day itself was great. We could swim, snorkel, peddle board, etc. The two stops were beautiful just as the journey to reach them. We had a great day, and it was the highlight of our holiday. We can recommend this trip when you are in (western part of) Crete!

Best day cruise ever!

Published on Oct, 2024

The cruise was an absolute highlight of our stay in Chania, Crete! Dimitri, Yani, Jessica and crew were fabulous and funny, and anything that was needed including the excellent food was supplied with a smile. Balos and Gramvousa were simply spectacular! Would definitely recommend this cruise to all.
