The cost of food is relatively cheap in Greece, for a week you, should plan around 200 for all your meals, and drinks.

As an experienced skipper, Alt Travel will take care to not take any risks on sailing days so the final itinerary depends on wind force and direction. They will also be spending time in each port discovering the island by scooter, on foot, or enjoying a beach.

However if you feel uncomfortable during the trip please inform them. They will always carry some seasickness medicine with them to help the passengers. Please don’t hesitate to send an inquiry if you need any additional information. Alt Travel is looking forward to welcoming you on board.

"Heureusement que j'avais déjà fait du bateau en Grèce !"
La Grèce ! Les Cyclades, les paysages et la nourriture dans les restaurants grecs

L'organisation. La 1ère journée est entièrement dédiée à l'arrivée des personnes et nous sommes restés une journée entière au port.... Les "chambres" ne sont pas réservées à l'avance. Je veux bien croire que le choix des îles dépend du vent, mais, à simple titre d'exemple, il est évident que la dernière nuitée se fait au même endroit que la 1ère (en l'occurrence Lavrio). Je ne comprends pas que cela ne soit pas organisé avant ! J'ai suivi un seul cours de Yoga, et en tout état de cause, il n'y en a pas eu tous les jours 2x/ jour soit à cause de la météo, soit à cause de notre heure d'arrivée. Concernant le bateau, nous devions être (je cite votre brochure) "maximum 8" et nous étions 13 ! 4 personnes étaient sur notre bateau alors qu'elles en avaient réservé un autre qui a été annulé au dernier moment. Même pour elles, ce n'est pas acceptable. Concernant la "vie dans le bateau", très peu de repas en commun, rien de prévu ni d'organisé. Et comme le skipper devait dormi sur le bateau, nous n'avons eu aucun moment convivial sur le bateau le soir. Chaque nuit, il nous fallait prendre "quelques affaires" pour la nuit et laisser notre valise dans le bateau...Les réservations de logement étaient faites le jour même...En août dans les Cyclades !!!! Une fois de plus, je ne remets pas en cause les circonstances, mais bien l'organisation. Je voyage tous les ans en bateau dans les Îles Grecques...Je vous affirme que je sais de quoi je parle.

"Perfect Vacation"
I really had a wonderful week - it was a perfect mix of sailing and yoga. Besides that we could also see the beauty of many different Cycladic islands. I was deeply impressed by Tinos. Elias, our skipper, did a great job. He is a really likeable person and has a lot of experience. It was one of my nicest holidays ever.
