The best way to explore the Greek Islands is with a yacht, and although there are thousands of boats sailing around the Greek Seas every summer, they are only available for charter to qualified sailors.
A few years ago we decided to organize sailing cruises around the Greek Islands for people who love the sea and traveling, just like us, but who cannot or prefer not to sail a yacht by themselves.
After searching for quite a while for the right boat, we found S/Y 'Alexandros', a big and luxurious yacht, and so our company Anko Yachting Ltd. was created in 2004.
We are a couple (Thanos and Alicia) with a great love for the sea, for the peaceful easy-going life of the islands and we really enjoy sharing this world with you.
For us this is our profession, but it is also a way of life, as we spend most of the year onboard 'Alexandros'.
Our base is at the small village of Rio on the north-west coast of the Peloponnese (mainland Greece), but as we spend many months from March until November living on the yacht and sailing around the islands, 'Alexandros' is practically our home and our office as well.
Thanks to the telecommunications equipment that we have onboard, the email is checked many times per day and your availability enquiries as well as your emails are answered usually within a few hours.
The majority of our guests are people who were originally looking for hotel or villa accommodation on one of the islands, but when they heard about our holiday option they liked the idea of visiting a different bay for a swim every afternoon and staying at a different village every night.
We take care of all the little details related to your trip, from the smooth running of the yacht to your transfers between Preveza airport and 'Alexandros', as well as giving you all the information about airlines that you will need, so that you can book your flights without having to do any research. The only thing you will need to take care of, is making your way from your house to the airport.
Our aim is to provide a relaxed and easy-going holiday for you, where you will feel at home onboard 'Alexandros', you will taste some of Alicia's delicious homemade dishes and you will enjoy the fresh home grown vegetables, fruits and olive oil that Thanos' father sends us every week.
