Very disappointed!!! It was my first time when I decided to book yacht cruise to celebrate my birthday with my family and friends. I chose LAZORS as they have only 5* review, but unfortunately wasn't as stated in the description. The crew didn't say anything about where we are going and no information was given about the places, which we passed or when we stopped. We have to asked the crew where is the wreck of the German aircraft because we would like to undertake snorkeling tour as it said in description. They took us to that place and they said to us: " You can go to do snorkeling but is your responsibility because this activity is prohibited". They also told us if the water guards will come we need to tell them that it's our equipment and the yacht crew have nothing to do with it. They didn't explain or show us how to use the snorkeling equipment as no one has any experience with it before.

My husband and I came to Crete for our honeymoon and this boat tour was one of the highlights of the trip. We hiked to the top of a small island with remains of an old castle without any other tourists present. The views were spectacular. We then continued onto the famous Balos beach, which is extremely difficult to access without a boat. They prepared us a large lunch with Italian flare that was delicious that we couldn’t nearly finish. The boat crew appropriately planned our times to access the castle and beach before the giant ferry with over 1000 people arrived, which we were very thankful for! This boat tour is really the only way to explore popular tourist sites without all the tourists. The boat itself was beautiful and looks just like the photos. The only downside is in October the weather can be rather overcast but we did have some moments of sunshine and regardless it was an amazing experience.

We were a party of 6 and we went yesterday 10am until 12. Mike and Demetri were informative and helpful.When we stopped to snorkel a couple of us me included were anxious to say the least, they were patient and when I finally relaxed after Demetri the captain assisted me to relax with the snorkelling equipment and I realised I could breathe with the snorkell I have to say it was brilliant the fish and water is unbelievably clear. Thoroughly enjoyed myself thank you so much guys. All 6 of us got off the boat smiling and happy and it is all I can talk about since. x thank you Dawn, Amie, Stacey, Ashley, Emily and David zxx

There were 6 adults on this trip. We had the boat for 90 minutes, we wished we had the two hour trip in the end, we enjoyed it so much. We left the harbour at a nice, exciting speed to go to the nearby island. The guys on the boat were informative, helpful and extremely knowledgeable about the nature on the island. We then moved on to the snorkelling adventure, again the guy in charge was informative and a fabulous teacher, putting the more worried of us in the group completely at ease, we all did it and looking at the fish was amazing. Do the trip, however young or old you are, you will love every minute of it.

This was a fantastic trip and we are so glad we booked it for our first morning in Chania. We were fortunate enough to have a boat all to ourselves (plus our captain and diving guide). The water was choppy on the day of our trip, but the captain was super attentive to make sure we weren't feeling seasick at any point during our journey. While we were out on the beautiful water, we got an overview of the town, Crete, and the surrounding islands from our guide. He was really knowledgeable and spoke excellent English; we fired off plenty of questions and he always had an answer to share with us. We really enjoyed learning while we sailed. We checked out a nearby island and spotted gri gris on the cliff (so cool!) and then checked out a few small grottoes before heading to a quiet spot with calm waters for diving. They had great equipment for us and they showed us how to use everything before we began, and then they checked on us to make sure we were safe and comfortable the whole time we were in the water. The dive lasted a while (maybe 30-45 minutes?) and then we got to see underwater plane wreckage from WWII, which was very cool.We highly recommend this trip! Book it immediately! Side note: payment is required on the day of the journey and they can only accept cash.

From the moment we spoke with Maria on the Sea Tour stand in town we knew it was the right trip for us. We have 2 young girls and wanted to see a little bit of the island without too much hassle so we opted for the private minibus tour.We were collected from our hotel by Lazaros who immediately made us a feel comfortable and got us settled in the van. We headed to Elafonisi beach and the whole journey Lazaros pointed out places of interest and td us about villages we drove through and lots of knowledge about the island. We arrived before the crazy really started at the beach and found nice beds in a quieter part right at the front so we could keep any eye on the girls. We were provided with a SUP board, body board, rubber ring and snorkel equipment to use which was amazing.....the kids loved it! Elafonisis beach is truly beautiful but if you dont get there early dont bother.....by the time we were leaving at 1:30 the placed was packed solid and traffic was starting to build. We left the beach and stopped at a monastery for the views, then headed to a local village restaurant with a view of the mountain. On the way back we stopped at a spot that looked as if we were on the moon....Lazaros was a really nice guy with so much knowledge and someone who really loves what he does and appreciates where he lives. Maria was wonderful too, really helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you

Searching for boat trips in platanias, where the SeaKing has the biggest space, we found a small stand with brochures from SeaStarChania. This led us to the website of this company. We saw that they arrangent private tours both on boat and with a small Van.We booked the Van tour to Elafonissi, and was contacted the same evening by Lazaros, advicing us to be there as early as possible, as the beach would be filled with tourists around noon when all the big busses arrived.So we spent morning snorkling, even saw a Lion Fish. All the equipment was freely with the booked tour. So we had snorkling equipment and SUP and a big bathing ring.On the way back Lazaros showed us some of the older parts of Crete and talked alot about the history. We were really taken by his generousity to help us have a good time, that we booked him once more, where we asked him to arrange a good snorkling place. So he took us to a very nice small cove with nice clear water and eventhough it was windy the water was very still. And only 5-10 other people than us.We spend a whole day snorkling there.I can only give Lazaros and his company the best recommandations from here.This is what you should do, unless you like the overcrowded boats and ferrys that the big companies sell. This is specifically for you and not all the other people :)

Αφεθηκαμε στους εξαιρετικούς Δημήτρη και Μάικ για την απογευματινή μας ξενάγηση στον περίπλου του νησιού θοδωρού στον κόλπο των Χανίων. Θαυμάσια ξενάγηση, πολύ επεξηγηματικη και ευχάριστη. Η παρέα μας είχε και μικρά παιδιά από τη Ρουμανία, και ακόμα και αυτά ο Μάικ τα βοήθησε να μπουν στο νερό και να χρησιμοποιήσουν με ασφάλεια τον εξοπλισμό για την παρατήρηση του βυθου και της θαλάσσιας ζωής. Μπράβο παιδιά, ευχαριστούμε
