Private Boat Tours Athens & Sea Transfers
There is no better way to experience Greece than from the water. The moment you leave the marina behind, the coastline opens up, the islands appear on the horizon, and everything slows down to the rhythm of the sea.
Our private boat tours from Athens cover the jewels of the Saronic Gulf - Hydra, Poros, Aegina, Spetses, Kea, Kythnos, and Cape Sounion —- on a brand-new Axopar 37 speedboat with your own skipper, snorkelling gear, and light snacks on board. For travellers heading further into the Aegean, we also offer private boat transfers to the Cyclades - Athens to Mykonos, Milos, or Paros, and island-to-island connections at your schedule, not the ferry's.
No shared deck. No fixed stops. No strangers. Just your group, the open sea, and an archipelago that has been drawing travellers for three thousand years.
Why Choose a Private Boat Tour in Greece?

What Our Guests Say
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "We spent the day on the water visiting Hydra and Poros and it was the highlight of our entire trip to Greece. The skipper knew every hidden cove - we swam in places that weren't on any map. The boat was beautiful and the whole experience felt completely effortless."
- Caroline & James, couple from Australia
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "We used the private transfer from Athens to Mykonos instead of the ferry and it was worth every euro. Arrived relaxed, on our schedule, with our luggage intact. The Axopar is seriously impressive - fast, smooth, and stunning to arrive on."
- Michael R., traveller from the USA
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Eight hours on the Aegean with our family of five - Aegina for lunch, Poros for a swim, and a sunset stop near Sounion. The kids are still talking about it three months later. Our skipper was fantastic - patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely great company."
- The Morrison Family, UK
