Thank you so much for such an incredible experience exploring the Ionian Islands with our family.
Everything was more magical than we ever imagined. We ate like Greek Gods + Godesses, we swam in the most beautiful waters and got to explore so many unique and beautiful places <3

We simply could not have imagined how amazing our trip was going to be, and all because you made the experience so fantastic.
From the thoughtful itinerary through the Ionian islands, to the sailing knowledge and expertise you showed us generously. From the wonderful meals to the care and kindness you showed us every day.

Dear Elena , Apostolis and Paris ,

We wanted to send you a heartfelt thank you... but we're still too relaxed from the trip! Your catamaran was the perfect escape and now we;ve mastered the art of of doing absolutely nothing (except enjoying the sun and sea of course) . If you ever need expert sunbathers or coctail testers on board , you know who to call!!! 
Until our next adventure on the high seas , we wish you smooth sailing and endless sunsets!
 

Dear Paris,

We thank you for introducing us to the beautiful Ionian islands and for answering all our questions. 
Fear not:our is not a farewell but only a goodbye
We'll be back to admire the sunsets on the west coast!

Julie and Paris, 

We had a wondeful week! You took us to beautiful waters and places , the trip was always relaxing due to your willingless and to Julie's lovely cooking that kept us intrigued from the one day to the next. 
Thank you for your lovely company ! 
See you again !

Ciao Aposstolis!!
After all the winter months spent waiting for the sun and the sea of Greece, the dream finally come true in the best possible way. Thank you Apostolis for being the most professional, kind and patient captain ever!!!!
Cecilia and the Italian Band

Two familie travelled to the Ionian sea,
From England and Canada, pale skinned, with glee.
The adventure, they knew not what to expect,
The captain, named Paris, the architect.
Each day, he scouted which bays to explore,
His guests saw many islands and swam to each shore.
At night, he'd tell us stories of his upbringing in Greece,
The families learned about his culture as they sailed on the sea.
Paris was challenged by the racing demons on board,
He won the battle while Innes roared.
The catamaran was perfect, there was so much space,
Showers, ac, a large kitchen, and music filling the space.
A new sport was created, SUP surfing began,
Innes, Freya, Jason and Chris pulled by tender, Paris had no plan.
They sll stood up. The ride mostly smooth,
But then Paris discovered doughnuts, he had something to prove.
He had his crew swim out to the rocks,
To anchor with ropes, or use knots on the docks.
One they were thirsty, Ela's bar was recommended,
Great music was heard, the evening was splendid.
Souvlaki and Pita, we picked our own fish,
Calamari and ice cream, it was delish.
The cats came up and begged for food,
Deidre fed them dinner, because she isn't rude.
Eileen kept everything om schedule and made the grocery list,
While Chris crushed beer cans with both of his fists.
The sound of the islands, the bleats of goats,
The cicada chirps, the flapping sails of boats.
Jade, Cloe and Freya read books and tanned,
They shopped for food, cooked, and cleaned, while Innes found the book.
This adventure won't be forgotten and it won't be our last trip,
However sailing without Paris will be tough, as he will be missed! 

Thank you for a fabulous trip!
Eleen

Thank you El Yachting and Paris! 
Deidre

Aweson trip!
Jason

Hi Elena

How are you? 

I have been meaning to email you but we've not been back long as we stayed some extra days in Kefalonia and then back to school for Teddy! 

We had an absolutely wonderful time and would like to thank you and all at El Yachting and especially Tolis for being an amazing skipper as always! We are putting some thought into what holidays we want next year so I will definitely be in touch!

Many thanks again and see you in 2023 hopefully!

Thanks

Very very professional manager and skipper. We return every year also two time in a season because is a special experience evry time, Cecilia

Good Evening Elena

We back in cold Cape Town and the memories of our wonderful week on the Catamaran with Tolis are almost long forgotten.

We are looking into repeating the trip again next year either on 17 or 24 June. Please could you tell us what availability you have. We would ideally like the same boat and the same crew…. Not sure if possible?

Look forward to hearing about prices and availability.

Kindest

Jennifer
