Day 1

place Zante

On the first day, you will meet your fellow travelers and operating crew, while we will get to know eachother!

We will then have our complimentary welcome dinner, as everybody gets comfortable onboard.


While we are docked in Zante, all guests will have plenty of time to either walk around its downtown, sit at some local restaurant, or grab a drink or two at some of Zante's populare beach bars. That being said, If you just arrived on Zante and you are feeling a little tired, you can choose to stay on your gulet and simply admire Zante's port-life, from onboard our deck.


Check-in is at 16:00 (Saturday), while the actual embarkation is at 17:00 the following day, on Sunday. *

*In case all supposed passengers are onboard prior to 17:00 on Saturday, we will most probably embark to Agios Nikoalos, instead of remaining docked at Zante for the day.
