    We hired this boat as a surprise for my Mum’s 60th Birthday and even before the day Harris was so helpful and worked with me to create the perfect day for my Mum’s birthday. Harris and his nephew were wonderful on the day and Chrisoyla’s cooking was phenomenal. It was the most fantastic way to celebrate, thank you very much for such a wonderful day.

    Harris was a spectacular host and captain! Him and his son made our trip smooth and enjoyable despite the choppy waters on the way to the islands. The food his wife made us was such a nice heartwarming home cooked meal. Thank you Harris!

    We loved our day on the sail boat. Harris made sure we were comfortable the whole day. The destinations were great, we were able to use snorkelling equipment and a SUP board, all provided by Harris. The food was also great! Real homemade food with unlimited beverages. A great day, well worth the money.

    We had a wonderful time on the sailing boat . Harris and his son made sure that we were comfortable and safe . Harris was very welcoming and gave us so much information about Crete. The home cooked meal by Harris's wife was the most delicious and traditional Crete a meal . We really enjoyed it . We would definitely do this trip again if we come back to Chania .

    We had an amazing day sailing on the Dromor Apollo 12 Plus with Harris and his son. The boat was comfortable and perfect for exploring the beautiful Chania coastline. What really stood out was the fantastic homemade food prepared by Harris’s wife—authentic Cretan dishes that made the trip even better. Harris and his son were friendly and made sure we had a great time. Highly recommend this family-run sailing trip for anyone wanting a fun, tasty, and relaxing day on the water!

    Harris & his son were great hosts and we thoroughly enjoyed our family trip (6 adults) on the boat. We learned something about Crete & had a lovely relaxing day. The food made by Harris’s wife was super delicious and much appreciated, as was the wine & beer. Thank you!

    Fantastic day out on the water for my wife and I. Communication with Chris began even before we booked, by answering plenty of questions and helping us decide on his boat. Once booked all details we're prompt and easy to understand. Once we arrived on board we were made to feel at home by both Chris and his son, who made sure we had everything needed. Snacks prepared by his wife were offered and gratefully accepted. Later in the day we had a fantastic meal, which I believe was gemista...perfect. We had a couple of stops and opportunities to swim in the beautifully clear sea and it really did help make our holiday special. We fully recommend this experience aboard a great sailing boat.

    It was perfect escape, leaving us with memories of freedom and the beauty of nature. Our little daughter (3 years old) enjoyed every bit. The cretan dishes prepared by Harris’s wife were so tasty, especially homemade olive oil. Harris and his son were excellent hosts! Thank you so much! 🌊🌅

    Magnificent 4-day cruise with Harris and his son! Two sailing enthusiasts who listen and take great care! We discovered magnificent spots and all accompanied by authentic Cretan meals! Bravo to his wife who works in the shadows in the kitchen! The boat is also very clean! As for the 3 of us, father, mother and son, we were able to practice as much as let ourselves be taken for walks... Harris does not hesitate to leave us in charge if we wish! THANKS

    A wonderful stay of 3 days and 2 nights spent aboard the Voilier de Haris, out of time. We were a couple with a 6 year old child, and we had an incredible experience. It was our first experience at sea and it was ideal. Haris and his son are excellent skippers and despite sometimes rough seas we have always sailed with confidence. The boat is as described and very well maintained, we lacked nothing (my husband is over 1m90 and yet we were able to be comfortable). Haris is extremely attentive, listening and looking for solutions - both for navigation and for the comfort on board of his passengers - always to offer food or drink, and moreover the food offered is of a high quality. superior because everything is homemade and faithful to the Cretan tradition, by his wife. A big EFARISTO POLI to Haris from the 3 of us, and we hope to experience this again soon.

    We had a wonderful day with Harris and his daughter Rimitri. Snorkelling and swimming in little bays and a delicious Cretan homecooked lunch. The weather was not the best unfortunately but Harris did everything he could to ensure we had a great day, with interesting information about the region as we sailed.

    Everything was ok and we had a perfect day with family. It was a windy day but Harris found perfect places for us to enjoy snorkeling in protected area . His wife cooked us a delicious Cretan lunch , and his son his helping on the boat , it’s a family business , and I recommend 100% Harris and his family if you want to spend one day with friends or family as it is a great experience when you come here . Thank you!!!

    Had the most amazing day aboard the Irinikos today sailing in the Chania Bay! Just us, the skipper Harris and his crew mate (son); with homemade cooking (thank you Mrs Harris!), snorkelling, sunken boats, good conversation and beautiful views everywhere we looked. We’re tired but buzzing (and a little sunburnt) If we’re ever back in the Chania area we will definitely head out again!

    We spent an excellent day on the Dromor Apollo 12. A very human and friendly moment with Chrisoyla and Harris around an excellent lunch with a typical Cretan flavor. But also very resourcing through these breathtaking landscapes

    We have been sailing from Kolymvari to a beach a little further from Paleochora. Landscapes and beaches are incredible in this part of Crete, very wild and peaceful. Sailing with Harris has been a wonderful experience. He is an experienced skipper and an awesome person, we have spent a good time together. The boat is in good conditions and even if we have had some small problems, can happen while sailing, Harris was very fast and professional in solving them. And we loved the food prepared by his lovely wife. A special tahnks to Angeliki, the sailor that helped Haris during the sail. Definitely recommended!
