Capt. Makis and Ilias were absolutely amazing. Very welcoming and knowledgeable. Having a 3rd generation fisherman and pirate as captain enhanced the trip for me. Touring around all of the islands, seeing them up close, and learning the history behind them made the tour that much more special.....and we caught a golden grouper that Capt.Makis cooked for us.

This is a must-do while in Santorini! Our day started cloudy/rainy, but the boat and crew kept us entertained. Mikas and Elias were outstanding and extremely knowledgeable about the Greek islands and fishing. The stories Captain Mikas told of his childhood fishing were incredible. The lunch barbecue of the fish we caught was delicious and then the sun came out while we were eating. To connect like that with 2 authentic Greek residents was a true highlight of our week-long stay on the island. We got to see so many inlets and churches from the water you would never see otherwise. Book this adventure without hesitation! You don’t need any fishing experience. Enjoy!

It was a wonderful experience. Sight seeing, fishing, eating, drinking, and enjoying your time on the boat.

Captain Makis and Ilias were absolutely phenomenal, and provided my family and I the most fun and memorable experience. We got to see the volcanic islands of Santorini up close, viewing sites most tourists don’t get to see. We even caught a blue fin tuna that Makis and Ilias fully prepared (along with some unbelievable tomato fritters) that we consider the best meal of our trip. Ending with views of the Santorini sunset was icing on the cake. An absolute must during your stay in Santorini!

This was literally the best day of my life - can’t recommend this tour enough! Ilias is a wonderful historian and storyteller. Learning the island’s history from him was so enjoyable. Captain Makis is an amazing guide, fisherman, chef, you name it. The food he made with the fish we caught was the best of our trip, and the spots he took us to swim were unbelievable. If you’re going to Santorini, you absolutely can’t miss out on this fishing tour.
