What is included in a private Santorini tour or cruise?

Exclusive use of the boat or vehicle for your group, a dedicated crew or driver-guide, hotel pickup, and a flexible itinerary you help shape. Food and drinks are included on most private cruises.

Are private Santorini cruises worth the extra cost?

For couples celebrating, families, or small groups the per-person cost is often reasonable, and you gain privacy, flexible timing, and a tailored route that shared boats cannot offer.

How many people fit on a private Santorini catamaran?

Private catamarans typically take up to 10-12 guests comfortably. Larger motor yachts and sailing boats carry more — check the specific vessel’s capacity when booking.

Can a private tour be customised?

Yes. You can usually adjust the pickup time, swim stops, sunset timing, and onboard menu. Tell the operator your priorities when you book.
