Captain was knowledgeable and provides fishing rod and tackle. Dinner was cooked on the boat. It was good

Great experience
In early April (2026) it was not that easy to find something like this. Captain Nektarios not only accepted our booking but he was willing to do so at the last minute. He does not talk much but is patient (esp with kids) and genuinely wants his guests to catch fish - without rushing anything, (His assistant is also extremely helpful). We were fortunate in that we caught a whole bunch of fish - in no small part due to Captain Nektarios being willing to make several adjustments to our position when they were not biting. On top of this, he cooked as a delicious lunch (there was something like a shrimp curry although I am sure in Greek it is called something else) plus a whole bunch of other things plus of course the fish that we caught. If you catch fish on your trip, pl request that some be done up as a simple ceviche. All the fish was good but the ceviche was the best. Highly recommended.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 😊 We’re really happy that you chose to join us, even at the last minute, and that you had such a great experience. It means a lot to hear that you appreciated the patience and effort to help you catch fish—especially when conditions are not always easy. 🎣 We’re also glad you enjoyed the food on board! The ceviche is definitely one of our favorites too 😊 Thank you again for your kind words and recommendation. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to see you again on another trip in the future!

Not your typical tour but an amazing adventure!
My grandson and I took a vacation to Athens together and he selected this excursion - we are both very happy he did! The views are beautiful. The crew was exceptional! Friendly, patient, and kind. They are very knowledgeable about fishing and the area. The crew provided the support for our level of skill, and were very patient with this being my first time fishing. They were encouraging and determined that we would end the day successful - which we did! An amazing lunch of various Mediterranean dishes was prepared by our Captain including several using the fish caught that morning. At the end of the excursion we didn’t feel like it was just another vendor led tour; but rather we spent the morning talking and laughing with friends we won’t soon forget. I would highly recommend this excursion not only for the views and the fishing; but for the amazing crew.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this wonderful and heartfelt review! 😊 We are truly happy that you and your grandson chose to spend this special time with us during your vacation in Athens. It means a lot to hear that you enjoyed the views, the fishing experience, and the time spent together on board. We’re especially glad that you felt comfortable and supported, even as a first-time fisher — that’s exactly the experience we hope to offer every guest. And of course, we’re delighted that you enjoyed the meal prepared with your fresh catch! 🎣🍽️ Your kind words about feeling like you spent the day with friends truly touch us — this is exactly what we aim to create on every trip. Thank you again for your recommendation, and we would love to welcome you both back anytime!

The day could not be...
The day could not be better. Our guide was extremely kind, the fish were biting, the sun shinning. The only thing better than the fishing was lunch. A delicious feast cooked right on the boat.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We really hope to see you again 😌

Why this scores 64
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Exciting Fishing Trip in Athens: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.
How much does Exciting Fishing Trip in Athens cost?
+
Prices start at $307 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Exciting Fishing Trip in Athens take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.
Is Exciting Fishing Trip in Athens worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Exciting Fishing Trip in Athens?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Exciting Fishing Trip in Athens suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Exciting Fishing Trip in Athens?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Exciting Fishing Trip in Athens start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Athens?
+
On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Small Group Greek Traditional Food Tour in Athens 20+ Tastings, Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Athens?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Athens?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
