Sailing or motoring
VoiliVoilou was founded by Stephane Christopoulos, a French-Greek euro in love with his country and a sailing enthusiast himself. The French-speaking charter agency has a fleet of monohulls and multihulls, but also some motor boats, to rent with or without skipper. They are mainly boats of owners or charterers with whom the agency has privileged relations.
A personalized accompaniment
With bases all over Greece, it is easy to choose one of the 5 sailing basins offered by the country, a true maritime state with hundreds of islands, each one more welcoming than the other. Depending on your sailing time, you will have the choice to visit the Cyclades, the Dodecanese, the Sporades, the Ionian Islands or the Saronic Gulf.
You don't have your exact euro program in mind yet? VoiliVoilou takes care of everything. With his experience and knowledge of the country, Stéphane will advise you to make your cruise in Greece a real escape. All in French, since he speaks the language of Molièreeuros!
"Based on customer requests, we establish a list of boats that takes into account the dates chosen and the number of people on board. We offer a real advice on destinations, types of boats euros monohull or catamaran euros to accompany customers in their discovery of Greece."
If the agency advises you on your destinations and your route, the latter is ultimately flexible. Because first of all, it is the weather that will decide your route, and in particular the Meltem, the Greek wind that often blows in summer on the Aegean Sea.
Sailing with or without a skipper
Whether you are an experienced yachtsman or a future yachtsman, several programs are available to you. You can rent your boat with or without a skipper. In the latter case, don't forget that a boat license is mandatory in Greece, even for sailing.
"We have more and more requests for skippered charters. Especially since the pandemic. New boaters are discovering sailing and looking to travel away from the crowds."
The majority of the skippers engaged by VoiliVoilou speak French. If not, you can speak English. They will be both captain on board and tourist guide on land, advising you on the creeks to explore, the anchorages where to rest or the taverns where to taste local dishes.
Cruise programs with activities
For the 2022 season, VoiliVoilou integrates a new sailboat in its fleet, a Bavaria Cruiser 46 Style. It will develop with him a new project of cruise mixing navigation and activities: diving, hiking, visits of archaeological sites. Activities which will be defined according to the preferences of the tenants.
An all-inclusive cruise program
Always with the objective of satisfying its customers, the rental agency is working on developing a new service: an "all inclusive" cruise
If the transfers by car between the airport and the marinas are already proposed, as well as the refueling service to be directly ready to cast off, VoiliVoilou is part of a global ecological approach which consists in :
- Minimize packaging
- Include local and seasonal products in its boats
- Recycle waste generated during travel
- Use biodegradable cleaning products
- Recommend the purchase of products from local agricultural cooperatives that operate in many islands
- Taste the local cuisine in family taverns to discover the local culture.
