5.00We did this cruise on the recommendation of Sights of Athens. The Cruise was perfectly arranged and executed. The 3 islands are very beautiful. We liked Hydra the most. But the others are certainly no less. Ended on the boat with live music and Dance. Thanks for this nice trip
Great tour, well worth it.

5.00Great tour, excellent value! The crew on the boat were fantastic. Very customer service oriented! Even the food (breakfast, snacks and lunch) were great. The hop on hop off bus was a good value! Access to all 4 lines. Start early though. The day comes to a close very quickly.
Great!

A Wonderful Day on the Water

5.00The entire trip was wonderful! The company has great communication, the shuttle bus arrived when it was scheduled and they were expecting us. The tour itself was exceptional!!! Beautiful little towns and coves. We could swim, wander and/or eat. There was enough time for all of it. The food and drink on the boat was very good. There was plenty of room for everyone. If you are looking for a tour that gives you a glimpse of Greece away from Athens, this is it.
Give This Bus Company A Miss

2.00Beware….this is not the true HOHO bus company, with the red buses. My wife and I were in Athens for the day in May on a cruise ship. This company seems to have sole access to setting up a desk in the cruise terminal and has first contact to every passenger walking through. They claim to be the “HOHO bus”, and to buy your tickets before leaving the terminal. When you get outside, you soon discover they actually are not the well known around the world red buses, as this company were in the car park selling tickets there. The tickets were €20 each and we got on the blue bus and departed. We ended up on a main highway and were travelling that fast we had to hold onto our hats. We never stopped until we got to the acropolis, about 30 minutes away, and were told to change buses and then the tour would start. There was no mention of this at the start. We thought the tour would start directly from the cruise port. The tour was poor. The commentary was scratchy and hard to understand, we went past some monuments three times and the buses were packed. Including picking up so many passengers, people had to stand including up top. We decided not to get off in case we could not get back on. Their buses were not covered up top either. Every time we passed a red HOHO bus, they were half empty. We were so disappointed in the tour, we stayed on the bus until we got back to the acropolis, so we could get on the bus back to the cruise port. We couldn’t wait to get off. It was very disappointing. I would not recommend this company.
