1852 Private Boat Tours from Athens to the islands of Aegina, Moni, Poros, Hydra, Kea and the temple of Poseidon! The best full day, half day and short/sunset private cruise experiences.

The luxury experience in Athens flows naturally from the land to the sea, particularly at high-end marinas like Glyfada Marinas and Astir Marina in Vouliagmeni. These spots are basically outdoor galleries for the world's most impressive mega yachts, which serve as private, floating sanctuaries for the global elite. If you want that same level of absolute exclusivity without actually owning a ship, 1852 Private Boat Tours has really carved out a name for itself. They specialize in high-end, bespoke trips that bring five-star hotel standards to the Saronic Gulf. It is a more personal and curated way to experience the water, perfectly connecting the city's upscale center with the beauty of the coast.
