A must-see activity for those who want something exclusive and different. The quality of the service offered by Ilias is great with a great value for the money. The excursion to Dia truly gives the impression of a magical break from all the other tours/activities

This trip is so lovely and worth it. It’s not too long and not too short, the trip is just right. Marcos and Magda were so kind and helpful and accommodating. The trip and the scenery is incredibly beautiful and I suggest you sit on bow in the front on the ride to and from the island.
