What is a private cruise
A private sailing tour means that the entire sailing boat Annabella is reserved exclusively for you and your group. There are no other guests on board — just your chosen company, the skipper, and the sea.
The price applies to the whole tour, not per person. Whether you are one person seeking a quiet escape or a group of up to 12 guests, the boat is yours alone for the duration of the experience. This allows complete privacy, flexibility, and a personalised pace, with the freedom to enjoy sailing, swimming, and exploring the Cyclades exactly the way you want.
It is sailing on your terms — relaxed, private, and truly unforgettable.
