CALDERA YACHTING - SANTORINI LIFETIME EXPERIENCE

[fliped]

The tour its self is very nice and recommend doing. However my partner and I specifically booked this tour since it made a stop at the volcano. It was the MAIN REASON we book this excursion. We made quick stops everywhere and as we stopped at the volcano to discover the hot springs. We basically were told not to get in because anyone with skin allergies or asthma should not swim in the water due to the high concentration of sulfer. This was the exact reason for booking this excursion . We were given only 15 minutes to check the place out. Realistically takes at least 30 minutes as it says in the guide. After getting back on the boat we were told the captain needed to speak to us and basically scolded us for taking longer than 15min. It took longer because the boat was anchored far to where we had to swim. Luckily I am strong swimmer and could do so. This ruined the rest of my time on board. We spent more time waiting around for the food to be prepared and eating then actually enjoying the various stops. It was not what we expected since the itinerary said other wise, making several stops to enjoy the open waters.

Besides this being a major let down and unpleasant time. The host Irina was amazing she was very nice and super attentive. It was this hospitality that made the trip worth it overall it was major let down. Not worth paying the 170 could have saved my money and booked the cheaper excursion.
