Sailing in the Cyclades, the trip of a lifetime with Bruno and Veronique aboard the Captain Cooki.
We are a family of three. Two sixty somethings and a 19 year old daughter. We decided to extend a trip to Italy and sail in the Cyclades with Bruno and Veronique. Veronique helped me navigate the Greek ferry system (which is very easy to do) and we arrived at the port city mutually agreed upon. We sat down to a lovely lunch prepared by Veronique who is a master chef and decided together what our itinerary would be. Along the way we changed course a few times based on our desires. The boat is very comfortable and we were completely catered to. Breakfast was served depending on when we felt like getting up. Lunch the same way. If we wanted to stay in a particular bay because the swimming was great we just did. We visited some ancient ruins which were facinating on the island of Delos. We were ferried to shore nightly to try the local tavernas. Many were so casual we could go barefoot and keep our feet in the sand. Lunches generally included a bottle of French Rose along with meals that were made according to our likes. My daughter mentioned she had a sweet tooth and Veronique surprised her with a plate of homemade brownies. The sailing was wonderful. We had some days that we sailed for hours. We all brought books but we discovered some new ones on board. We all played hours of cards together which was great fun. The time on the boat was such great family time. The electronics were put away for five days and not missed. Our hosts became our friends. I would absolutely recommend sailing on the Captain Cook if you want to experience the Greek Islands in the most personal way. The beauty is unmatched. The friendships made are treasures. Thank you Bruno and Veronique. With great affection, Kathleen, Bruce and Izzie
