About

Feel Paros through local eyes aboard Michael Zeppos—with homemade Greek dishes by Captain Dimitris and his yiayia, traditional wooden caciques, hidden coves, and warm, island-born hospitality that stays with you.

Since 2010, Captain Dimitris Triantafillos has revived his family’s fishing boat, transforming it into Michael Zeppos Boat Tours—a voyage where every detail is rooted in Parian tradition and genuine. Guests glide aboard wooden caiques—called the island’s own “gondolas”—into secluded bays, enjoy homemade dishes crafted by his mother with garden and sea-fresh ingredients, and raise local wine in habitual “yiá mas” cheers. It’s not just a cruise—it’s immersion: real food, real stories, and Paros shared in full-hearted form. As Dimitris puts it: “Come as a visitor. Leave as a friend.”

This was the absolute BEST experience. The perfect amount of people (our boat had 15 people I believe), the boat was beautiful, the sites incredible, and the food was spectacular. I knew it was going to be good but the whole cruise and the food surpassed our expectations.

Amazing boat cruise to beautiful locations around Paros and Antiparos. Staff were so friendly and made an amazing lunch. Love that we met lovely people from all over the world. I hope Zeppos know that not only do they make for a wonderful vacation but help people from around the world connect💙

My wife and I booked this boat tour to celebrate our wedding and it was one of the funnest experiences of my life. The boat was incredible and gorgeous, and we spent the day with our friends visiting several awesome swimming spots. The crew provided goggles and snorkels to explore the water with, which was awesome. Then the crew served us an amazing lunch, I was genuinely blown away by how good the food was. The crew were very friendly and fun, and i loved the time we spent with them. Incredible experience; if you’re looking for an unforgettable time on the water, do this tour.

this was one of the highlights of our trip. there were snacks, an amazing lunch, dessert, and unlimited drinks. we also had plenty of room to lay out on the boat without feeling crammed. i would highly recommend this trip - it was definitely worth the price

My wife and I sailed with Michael Zeppos for our honeymoon, and it was easily the highlight of our trip to Paros. The pictures here really don’t do justice to the stunning views you’ll have of the towns and surrounding islands. The captain and crew were all lovely, and worked hard to make sure we had a wonderful time on the water. On top of all this, the meal that was prepared on the water was absolutely outstanding. Book for a memory you won’t forget!

Excellent trip! One of our favorite days on Paros. Met some very interesting people, swam in the clearest water imaginable and had the best lunch of our week-long stay. Very happy to not have been on the packed boat next to ours that was departing at the same time.

I genuinely cannot say enough good things about this experience and the crew. My husband and I decided to book a private day cruise for about 22 people the day before our wedding. I had some concerns just about booking things internationally without being able to meet with someone in person, but from the beginning Irene was very helpful and communicative. We had to change the total number a few times due to changing itineraries, and they were super understanding and accommodating. Now on to the actual experience. The crew of this boat is the real selling point here, even though we saw some BEAUTIFUL places during our trip. They make you feel so welcome and like part of their family. The food is absolutely incredible, and you see the heart they pour into each and every dish. I am genuinely in awe that you can even make food like that on a boat. They were pouring wine and beer and throwing out pool noodles and snorkels to people in the water, putting things in safe spots so they didn’t get wet. They really do make this an absolutely magical time. Last and probably least (which is a shock to me to) were the sights. We were able to go to blue lagoon, and 2 other beaches/swimming spots. The water was a little frigid but when in Greece am I right? The water is absolutely stunning, and it was probably one of the best views I’ve had during a meal. This truly was a once in a lifetime experience and I can’t thank the crew enough.

Dimitris, Eleni, Athena, and the other crew woman (I’m sorry I can’t remember her name right now!) were awesome. I came to Paros for a friend’s wedding, and they booked an all-day private trip with Michalis Zappos II showing us around the island. The itinerary day of had to be adjusted due to strong southwest winds, but I wouldn’t have even noticed the change in plans because the spots they took us to were fantastic and gorgeous. They told us cool facts about some of the places we saw and also had goggles and snorkels on board so we could see the fish. The lunch they served us was also delicious and very authentic to Paros culture. This crew represents the very best of Greek hospitality and I can’t thank them enough for showing us an awesome time in their beautiful homeland! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was a fantastic cruise! Dimitri and his crew were friendly and informative, but also gave us space to enjoy ourselves. We had great weather and made 4 stops, including a cave and the Blue lagoon. The lunch was unbelievable, the most authentic Greek food I’ve enjoyed yet (his mom caramelized the grapes herself for the dessert!). They also had refreshing snacks and lots of wine. The boat was large with ample seating for us and the other 12 passengers, with comfortable lounging areas in the front and back of the boat. We will definitely book this again if we find ourselves in Paros.
