Exploring Fox

Athens · the Saronic · and wherever the day needs to go

Maria plans the day. You just show up.

Not a tour with a departure time. A day built around who you are, what you are marking, and how many of you there are — at sea, at a wine estate, or in a brewery.

Days already planned

This is what she does

Not a catalogue to choose from. Days that happened, so you can judge whether yours is in safe hands.

A one-day sail

Out of Mikrolimano, over to Dragonera

Leaving from Mikrolimano on time and in good spirits, across to Agistri and round to Dragonera — sun, swimming, and enough games in the water that nobody noticed the afternoon going.

Six guests at most. The boat stays comfortable and the day stays unhurried, which is the entire point of keeping it small.

Two days

Agistri and Aegina, with Michalis at the helm

Two days across the Saronic: clear water, a long meal of cheese, cold cuts and finger food with wine or beer, and the calm that only turns up once the engine is off.

Maria plans it, Michalis skippers it. Guests keep naming them both in the same sentence, which tells you how the boat feels.

A tasting at the Costas Lazaridis Museum

The museum first — the spaces, the exhibits, the collection — and then the tasting: several labels, walked through one at a time, with cheeses and cold cuts alongside.

Maria runs the tasting herself. Guests describe it as organised rather than casual, and that is deliberate.

The brewhouse at Anastasiou, then the garden

A tour of the production workshop first, so you see how the beer is actually made, then a tasting of the different types, then meats in the shop’s garden.

Award-winning beer, drunk at the place it was brewed. It is a short day and an unusually complete one.

In their words

What people wrote afterwards

Written by the people who were there. Translated where they were not written in English, and shortened only where they ran long.

We chose the one-day sailing trip to Agistri. We started from Mikrolimano right on time with a great mood from our organizer Maria. The atmosphere from the first moment made you relax and enjoy the day! We arrived at Agistri and specifically at Dragonera where we enjoyed sun, sea and extra surprise many sea games!It was truly an unforgettable experience that I recommend to everyone!! Thank you very much Maria!!!

Giota · One-day sail to Agistri

Everything was wonderful with the sailboat! Perfect organization by Maria, secluded beaches, crystal clear waters and magnificent sunsets...An experience I will always remember! I can't wait to experience it again!

Andreas · Sailing day

Perfect organization at every event I have been to so far.

Natalia · Several events

The wine tasting experience is unique! Maria, an experienced wine connoisseur and lover, made me really love it and her presentation was extremely organized. We tried many wine labels, with my friend, accompanied by unique cheeses and cold cuts. I highly recommend it, it is a wine tasting that you will remember forever!

Giota · Wine tasting

A very beautiful two-day excursion by sailing boat to Agistri and Aegina. We enjoyed swimming in crystal clear waters and enjoyed a meal with a cheese platter, cold cuts and finger food accompanied by wine or beer, together with good company and the organizer of the excursion, Maria and our skipper, Michalis. Beautiful waters, the calm of the sea and certainly a very interesting, enjoyable and different experience that you should definitely experience at least once.

Thanasis · Two-day sail, Agistri and Aegina

I told my wife we were simply going out for dinner near Delta Falirou. What she didn't know was that Maria had been secretly helping me organize an unforgettable anniversary experience on a yacht for our family. She listened to every idea I had and then took care of everything: the flowers, the wine, the cake, the catering, and all the coordination with the captain. The moment my wife realized what was actually happening is something I will never forget. What impressed me most was that Exploring Fox didn't just organize an event. They created a memory.

Ronnie · A tenth anniversary at sea

The event organizer created a unique tasting experience in a magical space. The atmosphere was friendly and attentive, with every detail showing care and aesthetics. The flow of the day, the wine choices and her discreet guidance contributed to us feeling comfortable, sharing moments and enjoying the experience to the fullest. An event worth repeating. Thank you Maria!

Christina · Tasting

I found the tour very good because apart from getting to know a beautiful corner of the island of Aegina, I also met people during the tour, who, although I didn't know them, were people with a similar way of thinking, making the environment very welcoming, in addition to all the care and attention, and delicious snacks, prepared with all the love and care for us

Angelica · Tour on Aegina

The Exploring Fox team was extraordinary. With my husband's help they pulled off a surprise of a lifetime, so that we could celebrate ten years of marriage with our little ones. The captain was the friendliest and kindest of men, and Maria took care of everything — the food she ordered and laid out so beautifully on the table, the flowers, the cake, the photographs — all of it with tremendous care and love. Even my eldest daughter said, “Mum, I will never forget this day.” I think that says it all.

Alexandra · A surprise anniversary

A well-organized visit to the Anastasiou brewery (production workshop and shop) which included a tour of the brewery workshop where we saw how the beer is produced. Then we had a tasting of the different types of beer and finally, along with the beer tasting, we enjoyed a variety of meats in the shop's garden which made the whole experience more complete. Overall, a very pleasant experience where we enjoyed different types and flavors of beer in a special environment, all carefully prepared by Maria.

The most beautiful thing I experienced on the one-day sailing trip with exploring fox and the soul of the organization, Maria Dalakos. From the coffee to the wine pairing and the cocktails, impeccable accommodation and hours of carefree time. I wish you a quick and next time!!!

Stella · One-day sail

A wonderful experience for young and old alike. Faultless organization, excellent service and a lovely atmosphere. Our particular thanks to Maria for her kindness and her care. We recommend her without reservation.

Alexandra · A day for all ages

What can I say about this crew? Michalis- captain and Maria-sailor are a great duo who gave us an unforgettable trip!!! Genuine people, with humor and a good mood, they made us feel immediately comfortable and the boat our home. We were very lucky to meet them on our first sailing trip. We will meet again soon Maria and Michalis, that's for sure!! Thank you!!!

Chrysa · Sailing, with the crew

With Exploring Fox every experience becomes a memory for life. What makes the events so special is the faultless organization, but also the soul of Exploring Fox — Maria. Every experience, every visit to a winery, every trip out on the boat, every event she puts together, she gives it her heart, her professionalism and her energy. Here is to the many more to come, which we will be trusting to her.

Giota · Winery, boat and events

I was lucky enough to try my first sailing trip through the exploring fox team! An unprecedented entertainment experience, delightful hospitality, intimacy with the crew and all this with a constant sense of safety! Thank you very much…I can't wait for our next sailing trip.

Your day

Three questions, then a message

Answer three things and the message writes itself. You can change every word of it before it goes anywhere.

Step 1 of 3 Which world is the day in?
Step 2 of 3 What are you marking?
Step 3 of 3 How many of you?

Rather not answer questions? Write to Maria directly — that works just as well, and it is the right route for anything unusual.
