Rethymno is a one of the three municipalities in Crete in the middle, between Chania and Irakleio. The city is famous for the Venetian architecture and the big mountains behind the historical city.

This cruise was so fun and the crew was so great. I've been on many sunset cruises and this was one of my favorite. The crew was so attentive, accommodating and fun. Highly recommended no matter was age or country you are from.

Super gaaf. Zolang je vaart gaat het lekker snel. Ik had last van zee ziekte tijdens het stil liggen bij het privé strandje waar je een half uur kunt zwemmen. Want dan lig je stil, en dan dobbert de boot. Maar dat mag de pret niet drukken.

You get to ride for hours and it is a lot of fun. You also have 3 stops with lots of "Instagram picture" moments. I highly recommend, bring your girlfriend and have a fun activity day. (you get dirty, and remember to buy a neck gaiter).
