It’s important to work out a budget for your travels – it’s a good idea to have a clear understanding of your main expenses before you leave home, but it’s also vital to know the extra costs you can expect along the way too.
When booking your Sail in Greece cruise, you’ll need to account for extra expenses such as flights and travel insurance for example – and then there will be optional extras and drinks on board the ships. Extra expenses will vary depending on your requirements and therefore it is difficult to specify the exact amount of money that you can spend per day; however as a general rule, we suggest that you budget between €25 – €30 per day (£25 – £30 per day). This amount will adequately provide you with additional meals, drinks and optionals.
All of our ships offer fully-stocked bars and have a wide range of refreshing cocktails for those hot summer days lazing about on the topdeck. Unless you have specific dietary requirements, you cannot bring food or drink onboard the boat and you will need to purchase drinks from the ship’s bar. Drinking packages are available for our private charters.
Below is an example of Sail in Greece drinks you can expect on our range of ships & cruises.
Please note: Prices are an estimate only. Each ship will have varying price lists and menu options. Up to date prices and menu items will be available onboard and can be checked with your crew once you join your Sail in Greece cruise.

If you needed one more reason to Sail in Greece next summer, how about the fact that Conde Nast picked Greece as the number one travel destination in the world!
Conde Nast readers gave the best scores to Greece across the board in the 2016 Readers’ Travel Awards, and with good reason. For its relatively small size, Greece contains some of the most diverse beauty and landscapes anywhere on Earth. Besides it’s ancient ruins and mountains, it has over 200 islands, each with its own unique vibe and atmosphere.
With our cruises, we try to give you a taste of every side of Greece, sailing from party central Mykonos to the stunning beaches of Paros, and on to the volcanic landscapes and amazing sunsets of Santorini. No matter what you like or what your style is, we guarantee you will fall in love with at least one, or most likely all, of these islands – as the readers of Conde Nast did!
There’s no better way to experience the Greek islands than on a classic sailboat, with a friendly Greek captain guiding the way. Greeks have been sailing on these seas for millennia, and almost everyone gets around the islands by boat or ship. With a cruise like this, you can travel closer to the way locals do while meeting Greeks and travelers from around the world on the way – having fun and forging connections on the waters of the deep blue Aegean Sea.
So if you haven’t been to Greece and want to see what Conde Nast readers are excited about, check out one of our cruises next summer. Even if you have been to Greece, we know you can’t wait to return, so kick back and relax while we take you to some of the best islands in the number one travel destination in the world!
The islands of Greece are known for many things: incredible beaches, fresh food by the sea, and nightlife that goes on until dawn.
However, did you know that certain Greek islands are particularly well known for specific crafts their residents have perfected? Below are five islands and the crafts they are known for – so if you’re visiting any of these paradise destinations this summer, you know exactly what souvenir to pick up!
There is a town in Tinos called Volax, which is famous throughout Greece for two things: its surreal, boulder-laden landscape, and its basket-weaving residents. Though the town only has around 50 permanent inhabitants, many of them are basket-weavers with workshops adjacent to their houses. So stop by Volax to marvel at its alien landscape, historic churches, and gorgeous baskets!
It is still an unsolved mystery why the mastiha tree produces mastiha (mastic) only on the island of Chios and nowhere else in Greece. Mastiha is a resin used for food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical products. The 24 villages in Chios that produce it are the picturesque and aptly nicknamed “Mastihohoria” – definitely worth a visit both for sightseeing and souvenir shopping.
Paximadia are a common staple of Greek breakfasts and snack food. This crunchy bread-like food is closest to barley rusk, and is used in plenty of Greek recipes, including the traditional “dakos”, where it is mixed with feta, tomato, oregano, and cappari. The best paximadi is made in Crete, so if you are visiting the island for its glorious hiking and beaches, be sure to bring plenty of paximadia for snacks after your afternoon swim or walk!
Aside from the fresh, healthy foods that make up the local Mediterranean diet, Greece is also known for its delectable sweets. The island of Syros especially is famous throughout the country for its loukoumia. These gummy sweets come in a variety of flavors, though the most traditional kind have hints of roses and pistachios. Sit at one of the many portside cafes or restaurants on Miaouli Square and enjoy this famous Syros sweet!
Charter one of our Sail in Greece fleet and explore the Greek islands on your own pace. Our friendly and welcoming guest will make sure your cruise around the Greek islands will be the one to remember!
