Highlights
Sail the Mediterranean in comfort and style aboard the stunning Running on a Waves cruise ship. At an impressive 64m in length, yet catering to just 42 passengers, she offers ample space onboard to relax and unwind as you sail around the beautiful Greek Islands. The ship has 3 large decks with all the modern onboard facilities needed to enjoy an exciting sailing holiday in Greece. The 'Tween Deck' is home to 13 standard cabins, the galley, and the watersports area, allowing direct water access. The mini-suites and premium cabins are on the main deck, along with the restaurant, ocean bar, and observation deck. Located on the sun deck are comfortable chaise lounge chairs, a shaded lounge, and a Jacuzzi-swimming pool accommodating 6 people. Each cabin features a private en-suite bathroom, AC, TV monitor, and ample storage space.
Small-ship cruises aboard the Running on Waves sailboat explore the stunning jewels of the Mediterranean Sea. Sail around the ancient beauty of the Cyclades, the Ionian, and the Peloponnesus Islands, to name a few. Days start with a sunrise swim or a leisurely coffee, followed by a hearty breakfast and the day's first stop. You'll then have plenty of time to explore each new island at your leisure, or excursions can be arranged. You can always return to the ship whenever you feel like it. The evenings are spent onboard enjoying the delicious Greek cuisine, socializing at one of the bars, or taking in the starry sky in peace.

Stunning Ship
Stunning ship well maintained and all amenities catered for. Staff were very good throughout as was food. Service in all areas were good. Dissapointed with at least 2 stops and the lack of actuallly being in port along with itinerary changes was a bit of a pain. However some stops were stunning. Our trip to Olympia with tour guide was fantastic. I do feel that a detailed actual itinerary would be beneficial at the start oc cruise, i am aware however that there can be changes but we did have quite a few, which was frustrating. The swim stops were enjoyed by many so a plus there. Overnight port stops might be good and possibly less meals so that people can enjoy the local ambience and food on offer. Overall a lovely trip on a beautiful ship and yes we would definately do it again. Thank you to all staff,and crew.

Beautiful boat with good memories but overall disapointed
Beautiful boat Spacious well equipped comfortable cabin (no. 3) First class food and restaurant service Good cabin stewards Excellent tender boat and crew Cons No sailing and this was the main reason for lchoosing this boat cruise Complete Change of itinerary due to weather No evening entertainment at all No information given regarding shore facilities ie busses, things to see and do etc. No alfresco dining, this service was not offered as indicated in brochure First day and night kept off shore only to be taken the next day to the other side of the island to anchor off off shore. At least we could have stayed in the same place and would have had the enjoyment of an evening of shore entertainment for two nights. Not introduced to captain until last night.

Wonderful Sailing.
The sailing experience was outstanding. We loved the boat and the crew was very attentive. We loved swimming once anchored. The visits to the islands and ports were not interesting because we were not told about any highlights of places to visit or given guides to show us those places. We had to find the places to visit during our stops. A guide to direct us once we were at these islands or ports would greatly enhance the trip.

Great Experience, Every day brought something new and interesting
Not a highlight but the orientations for the various islands should have been more detailed. For example telling us where the taxi stand were and information about the local bus service. A simple map would have been elpful

Relaxing, enjoyable finale to our holiday.
Highlights were Island visits independently from a sailing boat with not many people. HOWEVER,, the information given by the Activities Officer was poor and not good enough. People had to continually ask questions to get necessary information for island visits, particularly for Mykonos, Kos and Santorini with regard to transport around islands. For example on Mykonos and Santorini there were very accessible €2 public buses instead of very expensive taxis which were in very short supply. On Kos there was a free return bus near the tender wharf to the ruins of Asklepieon. The Activities Officer was totally unaware of this and we had to find out by chance. There was also disorganisation with the programme of some activities onboard, eg engine room visit and rope knotting.

Treated like royalty!!!!!!!!
So many highlights!!!! The crew interaction and hospitality, the sailing, the sites, going under the Rion-Antirion bridge, thru the Corinth Canal, Olympia, jumping off the boat, dingy rides to other islands, swimming in beach on Kefalonia, the amazing passengers we bonded with from different countries!!!! We highly recommend! We will be back again!

Unforgettable cruise through the Cyclades!
Running on Waves was amazing! The destinations were truly breathtaking. I appreciated that they took us to some less visited islands, like Folegandros and Serifos. The crew were so friendly, informative and accommodating. Access to the tender (the motor boat launch) all day to go back and forth between ship and port at each island was a great feature and allowed for much flexibility. The ship itself is gorgeous and the cabins and common spaces are comfortable and nicely appointed. When the sails are up it's a breathtaking sight. Being a smaller vessel also allowed us to go into smaller harbors where the big cruise ships cannot go. Food was awesome and plentiful and meals were always relaxed and fun. The watersports platforms was nice to have, but there was so much to do on the islands that we didn't use it much, also some harbor areas did not allow it, but still a great resource. We had planned to dive on this trip, but due to the small number of divers on our cruise (only 4 in total), there was no diving from the ship and they had to organize custom trips with local dive guides. However, the two they chose were fantastic. The boarding and de-boarding processes were smooth and easy. Overall, my family and I had a fantastic time. It was a truly amazing experience!
