Many of our guests suggested we rename our crewed yacht charters to ‘gourmet cruises’!!!
During your cruise you will not only enjoy the beauty of the Greek Islands, but you will also enjoy the Mediterranean cuisine.
The breakfast always consists of local products and the lunch is a variety of dishes with appetizers, salads and one or two mains. We never have a set menu as it depends on the time of the year and the area we cruise, since we use local seasonal products. We can of course accommodate any food allergies or intolerances as we will send you a form to fill in prior to your arrival.
Our price includes half board to offer our guests the flexibility to try the local tavernas in the evening, but for those who would like dinners onboard we are more than happy to serve them for you. It includes sundowner cocktails, appetizers, main dishes, wine or beer and desert.
Here are some of the products we use:
vegetables and fruit, extra virgin olive oil from our own farm, olives, jams and preserves most of which are home made from our own fruits, honey from local producers at the mountains of the Peloponnese, local liqueurs.
