Cruise in style on a luxury catamaran with two ticket choices. There's the comfort option on the lower deck with open seating, or choose the VIP option to access get on the upper deck where your own sunbed and personalised service is waiting. You'll set sail from Kissamos Port with coffee and a light brunch before an anchor drop at Balos, where you can swim, snorkel or relax on deck with a cocktail. Next, you'll check out Gramvousa Island's Venetian fortress and lagoon before enjoying a Mediterranean lunch, some R&R and a final toast on the way back to the port.

Great trip - lovely beaches. Time to explore and swim. Lovely crew that gave us some fantastic tips to make the most of the trip. One thing - suggest adding trainers to the ‘what to bring’ for walk up to the fortress. It’s a great part of the day (views are spectacular) but would have been easier (and safer) in sensible shoes!

Very enjoyable (expensive) trip. Friendly staff on the catamaran and good food. My only disappointment is the pick-up point for transport. We were staying in a huge resort at Caldera Paradise but had to make a 15-minute walk up a non-safe road to a remote restaurant. Considering that the bus was already passing out resort, it would have been better to be collected outside of it! Also, confirmation emails and receipts from TUI stated "departure time", not "pickup time" which is confusing!

we had a lovely trip food and service was excellent. staff we’re v good. i did feel the trip was over priced, i’ve done several catamaran trips eith tui and they did not cost €150 pp, most recently gran canaria on afrikat, The other boats had individual sun loungers and were more comfy but cost far less

Pickup was 20 mins late, no safety briefing on boat. Boat itself very good, clean, very friendly crew. Food was very nice.
