Total refit 2018, big dinghy (4.5m/50hp), many water activities

I recently had the pleasure of embarking on an incredible sailing trip, where we rented a boat with a skipper Teo (and Maria), and I must say, it was one of the most memorable vacations we’ve ever had. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of amazing.

Our adventure began in Preveza, where we boarded our boat with great excitement. The skipper, a true expert, guided us through the entire journey, suggesting the best route that perfectly balanced exploration, relaxation, and indulgence. His local knowledge and passion for sailing really shone through, making the trip not only seamless but also filled with hidden gems.

Our first stop was Gaios on Paxos Island, a charming little town that instantly won us over with its picturesque streets and welcoming atmosphere. From there, we explored the breathtaking caves on the west coast of Paxos, a sight that left us in awe of nature’s wonders. The clear turquoise waters invited us for a swim, and we couldn’t resist diving in to experience the refreshing beauty firsthand.

After our cave adventure, we sailed to Corfu, where we spent time soaking up the island’s rich history and vibrant culture. Each meal was a delight, with the skipper recommending local spots that served up the most delicious Greek cuisine.

One of the highlights was anchoring overnight in a serene bay in the Sivota Islands. The tranquility of the location was unmatched, allowing us to unwind under a blanket of stars, with the gentle lapping of waves as our lullaby. It was pure bliss.

We also visited Lakka, a small and charming port on Paxos Island. The quaint harbor, with its colorful boats and laid-back vibe, provided the perfect backdrop for an afternoon stroll and another fantastic meal.

Finally, as our journey came to an end, we sailed to Preveza, feeling rejuvenated and completely satisfied with our adventure. The skipper’s expertise and the beauty of the Ionian Islands made this trip truly unforgettable.

Teo and Maria were great and Teo’s 40years sailing the Mediterranean really pays off as he knows all the spots and we saw some great places. We would definitely sail with Teo again. Some key things to know- we rented for 5 days, first day doesn’t start until 5p and last day ends at 9a so was really like 3 1/2 days/4 nights, still a good value but key to know when booking that not much in first and last day. Last night is also back in the Alimos (Athens) port so you are heading back to Athens on Day 4 of 5. We had 6 people and i think that would be max I would want to sail with on the boat. I know it says holds 10 but I would limit to 6 for comfort and sleeping arrangements. Would do again, still a good value and great experience but good to know the above.

Our group of 5 contracted Teo for a six night sailing tour around the Cyclades departing Athens June 2024. I can say without a doubt Teo is one of the most detail oriented captains sailing today. His experience as a pilot is reflected in his course charting and estimations on fuel consumption, time at sea, and ports of call. We had a wonderful trip and would not hesitate to go again. Teo and his first mate Maria made sure we were comfortable and needed nothing during our trip. Maria's skill with breakfast and lunch while at sea is second to none. We asked to eat what a Greek would eat and she was very happy to share her favorite dishes with us. The boat will well stocked with all the amenities to sleep overnight and shower while on board. Well built ship with age but well maintained and up to date with the latest navigation systems kept us on course and free from danger. Thank you for such a wonderful trip.

We went on a pre wedding trip for our first time to Greece Sailing With Teo thru the Ionian. The boat was in great shape and we were very comfortable. Teo was waiting at the port for us and all our luggage (yes we had six bags for two of us due to the wedding). We took off for our first spot within an hour of getting on the boat.
We let Teo design our trip and it was the best thing we could ever do. He took us to all his favorite spots because he has been doing this for years and know where and when to go. We went to Ithaca , Kefelonia, Corfu, through the Corinth Canal and more. We saw with the pigs on the island which was super fun for me. there were so many beautiful swimming spots and photo spots and relaxation spots and the marina docking locations were awesome.
You will definitely feel safe with Teo, there are a lot of people who rent there own boats without a captain, seems a bit hairy at times, worth every penny to have peach of mind and great navigation. Teo showed us the best restaurant spots too! And he know when to hang out with us and when to give us privacy. He is also super funny has great jokes and an awesome history and mythology knowledge which made the trip super fun. He even helped me with picking up car rental as there were bad rains and floods when we arrived;
We have made lifelong friends with Teo on this trip!
Will be back again! It was a memorable and special trip and even with two days of rain. He made it fun.
Highly recommend this vessel and captain , they have a bunch of water toys to use if you want them as well. Very clean boat.

My girlfriend and I had a great time during our two weeks on Teo’s boat. He and Maria, the hostess, are very pleasant and made us feel at home. Highly recommend

Theo is a professional and responsible skipper, his boat works great and most things are in great condition. We had a great time as he always showed a good disposition to help and fulfill our wishes
