HARMONY CRUISE

Our Harmony Greek Island Cruises are a perfect option for those looking for a blend of on-shore cultural and historical sightseeing, coastal relaxation, on-deck sea-view unwinding and the friendly atmosphere of a small ship cruise.

The gulet Artemis – our beautiful motorised ocean vessel that can accommodate up to 46 passengers with 16 cabins – operates the Harmony Cruise. It is best suited for ‘young at heart’ travellers looking for an adventurous Greece sailing trip to some of the most iconic island stops in a round-trip from Athens.

Check out our latest information pack for the Harmony Cruise here.

This sailing trip is a fun Greek Isles Cruise focusing on experiencing the true beauty of Greece while still offering fun socialisation options in the evenings in line with the renowned Greek hospitality. What’s more, you will be cruising in comfort since all our cabins include a private bathroom and air-conditioning.

If you are a group interested to charter our boat for sailing around some of the best Greek islands email us: groups@sail-ingreece.com. Tailor-made itineraries are also available

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

Harmony cruises are party tours ideal for independent like-minded travelers from 18-35s. You will explore the most famous islands in the world, the Greek islands and experience the best nightlife.

They depart From Athens every Saturday at 3pm, from May till October. For specific dates see our calendar.

The cruise finishes every Saturday at 09:00 after breakfast.

Do you prefer exploring the Greek islands, traveling for hours with other thousands of people, getting queued to embark on the public boats, waking up at crazy hours to be on time, carrying your bags everywhere, changing from hostel to hostel, rather than travel with your private boat, having your own bed from day 1 to day 8 with no movements, exploring beaches and hidden gems of the Aegean sea and still have the same fun with your friends?

We do have a variety of cabins, which range from doubles to twins (lower beds-bunk beds) to triples and a few quads, depending on the operating gulet.

All cabins besides, their comfortable mattresses, are ensuite with their own shower, a hair dryer, a wardrobe for storage, reading lights,
their own individual A/C device and an electric fan!

If you want to be in the same cabin with your friends, just mention it, while booking with us.
We can not guarantee that you will be together, but we will make everything possible to actually do that!

Please keep in mind, that we provide 1 set of fresh linen and towels, for the cruising week.

Many of our guests, choose to travel alone, as it follows the basic idea of our cruises.
Independent individuals, come alone but travel with same-like-minded people, so many in the end, actually become friends!

Please know, that if you are traveling solo, we will always try to allocate you to a cabin, with your same gender.

On the other hand, if you desire to have your own private cabin, there will be an extra charge of 50% of the total amount of 1 person’s price

In general, if you skip Mykonos, in the Greek islands you can find cheap food and drinks everywhere. You can eat from 1 “souvlaki” that costs only 2 euros and Greeks eat it as a meal or a proper meal at a restaurant that costs around 8 – 15 € p.p. Drinks cost from 5 – 10 € for cocktails.

Yes all local taxes are included in your cruise. There is only a 20 € p.p. port tax for the whole week. So on every island we visit, you will not pay anything extra for port/local taxes. There is only 1 exception, in Santorini, when due to weather conditions sometimes our boats are not able to dock at the old port and there is a need for a local transport between our boat and the port with smaller local boats. The cost for that transfer is 5€ p.p. one way.

Water is offered complimentary by us, only during meal courses, so water is NOT included in your package!

If you want any extra water, we offer 1.5L bottles (Natural mineral Water), at 2€

The A/C, operates up to 6 hours, per day (if of course, it is permitted by the government’s Covid regulations) from 8 am till midnight and is already included in your cruise package. 

Please note, that the A/C works only when the generator is working at the exact same time. Though, due to local regulations, the normal generator must be turned off, after midnight on various ports, except the silent ones, that we use after midnight. 

The power supply, from the shore at the ports (due to their weak infrastructure), is not powerful enough to operate all our A/C units, simultaneously. Thus you must keep in mind, that there are possibly hot nights, especially during mid June, July,  August and mid September, where the A/C, does not work after midnight and many of our guests decide to sleep on board, under the stars! If you are not prepared to do that, we strongly suggest to include our overnight a/c & fan service. 

For our guests that are interested to operate their a/c and fan after midnight, we provide an optional collateral service, that costs 140 euros per person per week and if you decide to purchase it, you will be able to use your ac unit in your cabin, from midnight till 8 am. This service must be pre-booked and cannot be purchased while on board. Please keep in mind, that all our cabins are equipped with independent electric fans, as well, hence when our boats are connected to the shore’s power supply, our fans can work properly, during the night.

Any means of transportation, such as local buses, taxis, or even water taxis, are not included, in any of our cruise packages.
However, we would be more than happy to arrange any possible transportation, for you!

A standard “airport to the vessel (and vice versa)” transfer, is around 30-40€ per person (depending on the Island),
while shorter, in-town transportation would vary, between 8€ and 15€ per person.

In case you want to arrange your transportation, prior to your arrival, send us an email, at: travel@sail-ingreece.com or info@sail-ingreece.com

Our gulets share quite a number of electrical sockets, both on the inside and the outside, of the vessel.

With this in mind, and as we do provide extension cords and multi-docking stations, you will be able to charge your devices,
either while cruising while the generator is active, or while docked at port!

You are able to have a shower, any time of the day, but keep in mind that when the boat is docked at some of the ports we visit,
the engines are turned off, the water flow is reduced and as a result, there is no hot water after midnight.

Water tanks on board are limited, meaning, when multiple cabins shower simultaneously, hot water is more likely to end.

If your shower does not have hot water, please inform your captain in order to open the water heater, and please wait for at least,
15 to 20 minutes, until it heats up the water again.

Our Harmony Cruise is under a Brunch option,
which basically is a buffet-style brunch course, served at around 13:00.

Click here, to see our detailed brunch menu!

Please note, that all courses include water, though if you want extra, a 1.5L water bottle, is at 2€

Yes, we offer a variety of drink options to enhance your experience on board. You can choose from two tailored drink packages, designed to suit different preferences and budgets. Additionally, we provide comprehensive drink menus for both onboard purchases and pre-orders, allowing you to select specific beverages and quantities in advance.

We do respect our passenger’s food preferences and requirements and that is why our Chefs, in case it is needed, will prepare optional dishes, as well.

(vegetarian, lactose-free, pescatarian, vegan, etc.)

Please keep in mind that is not allowed to consume food and drinks inside our cabins and also there is no communal fridge that can be used for storage.

Adventure traveling, like Island hopping, requires travel insurance and we strongly suggest, purchasing one!
For further details, please review our travel insurance section.

All gulets are motorized vessels, although they are equipped with sails. Operating solely under wind power is highly unpredictable and not practical for maintaining our weekly operational schedule. As our cruises run consecutively, Captains prefer to rely on the gulet’s motor engine to ensure consistent and timely navigation throughout each cruising week

All the gulets in our fleet, have only European-type sockets.

Please keep in mind that our electric sockets operate with 220V, and the particular current is produced on board, by our generator or when the boat is docked at a port and there is electricity supply available. Having said that, please keep in mind that the 220V is not available on board 24/7, hence we always suggest to bring power bands on board, to charge your mobile or other electrical devices.

Note: It is mandatory to know this beforehand, as the electrical items/devices you want to bring on board, need to agree, with this specification.

We have travelers from all over the world, and we are truly delighted about this!

Most of our passengers are Australian, British, German, Spanish, Croatian, French, Italian, South African, Canadian and American!

So, most of our passengers are mainly English speakers!

In order to get all the necessary updated information about Visa and passport requirements, please check our Visa & Passport section!

Our captains, fluent in English, are committed to making your cruise experience exceptional. In support of local communities, our gulets feature a diverse, multinational crew.

While not all crew members may speak English, they are all attentive, and ready to assist you throughout your journey.

All our gulets can carry up to, approximately 20 to 25 passengers, with an average cabin number of 7. (double/twins – triples)

Keep in mind, that all our vessels have fair space onboard, for literally all the passengers they will, eventually, accommodate!

At the time of your booking/inquiry, remember to specify who your fellow travelers are.
This way, we will try to make all the necessary arrangements to accommodate you, all together, on the same vessel!

Please keep in mind though, that we can not guarantee this, for close-to-date cruises!

Even if we believe, that it is impossible for someone, to wish to “abort” our sailing cruise earlier than its scheduled disembarkation,
You are of course, free to leave, whenever you like!

The only restriction though, is that in order for you to leave earlier, the gulet needs to be docked at a marina/port, and not on some remote cove!

Of course, in case you happen to leave earlier and want us to help you with your transportation, feel free to let us know,
by sending an email, at: travel@sail-ingreece.com or info@sail-ingreece.com

In the unfortunate event, of losing your departure, you have the option to either “catch” us on the next Island/destination,
via commercial ferry, or bus. (if accessible)

In any case, if something like that is to happen, try to inform us prior to the actual departure time, by calling us at our Head Office, at: +30 211 215 2595

We offer a variety of collateral services during your cruise. Click here to view the list.

As personal privacy, is of paramount importance to us, we cannot provide you with any of your fellow travelers’ details, prior to your actual cruise day.

However, if you are interested to meet other people that travel on the same tour as you, feel free,
to head to our Facebook page and introduce yourself to our lovely community!
