Our tour guide Marios was fantastic and took us to many fabulous places. The snorkeling and cliff jumping was fun and the foodies were dalish! Definitely recommend spending the extra cash for this speed boat and when traveling with friends!

This boat charter was amazing. Our captain took us to all the best spots and we had an incredible time. The finger food was also very good. We had plenty of food and drinks and our Captain made sure we were comfortable at every stop. Would take this trip again!

Wonderful captain (Marios) and a beautiful new boat- we had a great time checking out breathtakingly beautiful spots! Would recommend. Yummy snacks, but no full lunch- captain brought us to a lovely spot for lunch.

An unforgettable day exploring Anti Paros in a seven seater boat. Great communication, excellent boat. We had perfect conditions- I have my skippers license. Beach hopping, swimming and lunching. Even spotted a dolphin

We spent a remarkably, fabulous 1/2 day boating and snorkeling. The sea and islands were amazingly beautiful. Our skipper, Marios, was a delight - friendly and safe. This outing was one of the our favorite activities during our two weeks in Greece!

Joanna was absolutely incredible! Her knowledge of the area (and which places are busiest when) made the experience all the more great. I highly recommend booking with her! The trip was spectacular. Easily the best part of my family’s trip to Greece!

We had an amazing time. Our captain was very friendly and had a perfect plan to tour the most amazing and beautiful spots around the island taking care to stay away from the crowds. We stopped for a fantastic beachside lunch at Soros and ended at the blue lagoon. Priceless memories. Cannot wait to come back!

We had such a great day Marios our boat driver made the day so perfect for us He took us to uncrowded beaches Lots of laugh Even catered the music for us Well done !

Fantastic experience with The Sailor’s Ride to visit beaches in Paros, Antiparos and Despotiko. Extremely professional interaction with Joanna who organised our trip and our skipper, Alessandro was the best. They have my highest recommendation.

This was the best excursion we did in all of Greece! The boat was amazing and the captain (Akis- hope that is spelled correctly?) was so accommodating! Akis knew just how to juggle the crowds and what sights to take us to. We loved the Saxdor and its fold out sides that made it seem roomier. Highly recommend this company and their itinerary! Also, just a side note- we also boated in Santorini and the water in Paros was much more beautiful and great for swimming.

Yassas, Dimos! My wife and daughter joined our very good friends from Athens and their daughter in Paros (June 2023). We wanted to try something different and then looking through TripAdvisor we ended up seeing this boat and decided it would be a fresh way to see around the island rather than the traditional sailing tours that were available and we have done many times in the past on other islands. The choice was is the right one by far. The boat is incredible, the views and destinations are obviously otherworldly and the skipper, Dimos, was kind, fun and made every effort to work with the winds and the time of day to make sure that each destination was optimal when we went there (glassy waters, least amount of people, etc). As should be expected, if you are kind and respectful to the boat and the skipper the true Greek hospitality will come out - some advice that should be taken by all tourists visiting the Greek Islands. Paros is an incredible island but this excursion put it over the top. I feel that it is worth every dollar because you get to feel like a VIP for the day for only a minimal amount of money more then a semi group tour. One bit of advice, although the boat will comfortably fit eight, I think that six is the magic number. All six of our party were talking about Dimos add the trip for days. Go to Paros, hire Dimas, have a drink and tell him his friends from the US and Athens said Yammas! ... And don't forget to tip!! RCC ps. Dimos also recommended an incredible restaurant for us but I'm not going to tell you what it is - you will need to book him to find out!

A highlight of our trip, to be able to cruise the island of Paros and get a different perspective of the beaches. We rented a small boat and cruised to the "Blue Lagoon" a shallow cluster of small islands about 10-15 minutes from Paros towards AntiParos. We set anchor on a shallow sandbar (2m deep) and the kids jumped off the boat for a swim. This is a popular spot as the party boats and larger yachts also dropped by. We then cruised along the southern shores of Paros to see the beaches and a sea cave (arch). With no experience, they gave me a 10 minute demo and it was pretty straight forward with great communication. The water was not rough and the wind was mild. A great day not to be missed.

Perfect experience with Zisis for this full day of rental. We had all instructions needed for the boat as for the creeks and beaches to see. Zisis also provided snorkeling material for us and few bottles of water. It was a perfect day, don't hesitate to book with the sailor's ride!!

Sailor's ride rents out small boats available to people without a boat license. The boats fit up to 5 people (the number of people on the boat in my trip) and you can rent them out for either 4 or 8 hours. We rented ours from 9am-1pm. The boat was clean, and easy to drive. They gave us a small demonstration on how to use the boat. They also gave us a map of interesting points to visit. Then we took off. We visited a couple of secluded beaches on small islands off the coast and then went south along the coast of Paros. We saw a cave and were able to anchor and swim inside. The only thing to be aware of is that the ladder to get on the boat is not the easiest to use for heavier people. It's narrow and fits just one foot at a time. The beaches were amazing, the cave was breathtaking,and the freedom to take the boat wherever we wanted was comforting. The added privacy of not having a stranger on the boat was also great.

Super boats. Friendly staff. Highly recommended sailing from Aliki to the blue lagoon and Anti Paros.
