Catamaran with skipper and hostess Cyclades | Boat Rental in Ornos, South Aegean

“My family of 4 loved our 2 day excursion with Veronique and Bruno. Not enough time was the only criticism but we had a short window which fit in well. The boat was in top notch condition and our days were planned well. Plenty of time for sailing, snorkeling and wine drinking as we made our way from Paros to Naxos. All the meals on board were excellent and they easily accommodated for our vegetarian. Sailing in the Greek islands should be on everyone's bucket list and there's no finer way to check it off! We will certainly be back! Merci Veronique et Bruno et a la prochaine! ”

“This was a fantastic experience! In four days, we touched 4 islands. We experienced secluded beaches and off the beaten trail villages. Then there was the magical time spent sailing in an ancient sea. This was our first time on a sailboat,. Our hosts, Bruno and Veronica are seasoned sailors and know the waters and the islands. They made us feel safe, even in the rough waters encountered sailing against the wind. Bruno taught my 10 year old son how to steer the boat! Great time. Veronica is a wonderful cook. Breakfast and lunch on the boat were always a treat. Accommodations aboard this boat were clean and comfortable. Great value for money and quite an adventure.”

“We cannot say enough great things about sailing with Cpt. Bruno and Veronique aboard their boat, Captain Cook. There was a last minute change with the starting port, but they gave us enough notice which actually worked out for our schedule. Their communication was great and timely from the initial contact during booking and prior to the trip. The boat was very clean, comfortable and we felt very safe . Veronique's cooking was delicious and she provided us with options on what we wanted to eat. Bruno showed both my daughter and I how to "sail" the boat. Their suggestions to where to sail was customized to our preferences. We wanted quiet, less touristic islands to feel the true experience of the Greek island life...They delivered!!! We started in Naxos and ended in Santorini. My 6yr old daughter was also left with a lifetime of memories with them. We felt very comfortable aboard and were pleased with the overall experience as this was our first time sleeping on a boat. I am so happy that I chose the Captain Cook over other commercial charter options as this felt more welcoming and personal. Both of them know the Greek islands very well, so it makes it easy to customize the trip based on everyone's needs; especially with finding the hard to find secluded spots and landside recommendations for exploring some of the islands. THANK YOU Bruno and Veronique!!! We cannot wait to sail with you again!! -Ash, CC, Sophia”

“We are a family of three. Two sixty somethings and a 19 year old daughter. We decided to extend a trip to Italy and sail in the Cyclades with Bruno and Veronique. Veronique helped me navigate the Greek ferry system (which is very easy to do) and we arrived at the port city mutually agreed upon. We sat down to a lovely lunch prepared by Veronique who is a master chef and decided together what our itinerary would be. Along the way we changed course a few times based on our desires. The boat is very comfortable and we were completely catered to. Breakfast was served depending on when we felt like getting up. Lunch the same way. If we wanted to stay in a particular bay because the swimming was great we just did. We visited some ancient ruins which were facinating on the island of Delos. We were ferried to shore nightly to try the local tavernas. Many were so casual we could go barefoot and keep our feet in the sand. Lunches generally included a bottle of French Rose along with meals that were made according to our likes. My daughter mentioned she had a sweet tooth and Veronique surprised her with a plate of homemade brownies. The sailing was wonderful. We had some days that we sailed for hours. We all brought books but we discovered some new ones on board. We all played hours of cards together which was great fun. The time on the boat was such great family time. The electronics were put away for five days and not missed. Our hosts became our friends. I would absolutely recommend sailing on the Captain Cook if you want to experience the Greek Islands in the most personal way. The beauty is unmatched. The friendships made are treasures. Thank you Bruno and Veronique. With great affection, Kathleen, Bruce and Izzie”
