The only part of the journey more magical than the Cyclades was the crew. From the food to the company to the unexpected number of laughs. I cannot imagine a single way the crew could have made us feel more welcome. For the entire week we never felt like passengers but rather family.
A little part of me will forever remain on the Elvira 52.

Dear Elvira guest ,
we have had a wonderful 14day cruise. Captain Vangelis is a very experienced sailor who knows the islands like the back of his hand. Listen to his advice and recommendations. He is 3-5 days ahead on the weather and will always seek protected waters for you. He understands the history of the islands and will make great recommendations of where to visit.
Christos , deckhand ( and a very good mimic! ), will fulfil your every need , drinks , towel , transport to & from islands. He has a great sense of humor and will seek your assistance to look for mermaids !!
Then we have Lia, the cook , and what a cook , you will only have great meals through out the islands.
All traditionally prepared. Don´t pick your menu or stick with your usual! Let Lia prepare for you the most marvelous traditional Greek food you can imagine! The crew will serve you and provide for your safety, they will enhance your journey through those beautiful islands!
Paul & Blonde
I´d like to add that from the moment we stepped on board , the crew made us welcomed and treated us with the most respect, helpful at all times. The most fantastic trip we´ve ever had! Also our friends were the most fantastic travel companies!
