The experience on board the Hemera exceeded our expectations. The cabins were comfortable and cozy and the service quite outstanding. The food was of a very high standard (although some of our group thought there was too much of it). The crew went out of their way to accomodate dietary requirements. Lara, our Cruise operator was simply the best and the crew were fantastic also. They were all very approachable, including the Captain, and did everything possible to make our trip smooth and interesting, including excellent local entertainment during the Captain's dinner. The islands themselves were quite stunning: ancient forts, castles and monasteries, picturesque old towns and welcoming locals. The local experiences available on each of the islands were varied and fun. Opportunities to cycle in the forests, swim in the beautiful Ionion and do walking tours were simply great. Thanks Sail in Greece - we wouldn't have missed it for the world!
