    I was really looking forward to this excursion but me and my friends had a little bit ‘too much rum!’ the night before this trip. My friend spent almost 2hours straight being sick overboard. If you are planning to do this I would highly recommend you don’t drink heavily the night before! I wish we didn’t haha.

    Excursion à bord d'un bateau magnifique avec une équipe de bord sympa. Le capitaine a laissé tous les petits qui le souhaitaient au gouvernail, le repas végétarien était bon et bien organisé, la musique et le spot de nage ; très bien. Par contre, ce n'était une plage mais il y a des gilets de sauvetage...

    Langweilig keinerlei Infoformationen über Kretas Festung noch über die Piratenhöhlen, war früher anders, Einfach nur dasitzen und aufs Wasser starren. Einziger Lichtblick das baden vor den Höhlen.

    We had a great time on the pirate cruise from Rethymno. The ship itself is super cool, feels like stepping into a movie. The stops at the caves were beautiful. Loved the relaxed vibe onboard. Great for families or just something fun and scenic to do! Recommended!

    Really cool and fun activity if you like boats and snorkeling ! The captain was really kind and let people and children drive the pirate boat and take photos. The snorkeling was incredible in a really nice creek at approximately 1h15 from Rethymnon port. The meal was nice, a greek salad is a good Idea after one hour of swim. I really recommend it :)
