"Thira (Santorini) and Piraeus with Blue Star Ferries on the Blue Star Delos "
Good and relax trip
"Delos :oui. Naxos : non "
Le Delos est confortable, agréable par sa luminosité intérieure. Le Naxos ne devrait même pas exister,il est exiguë,il n'y a pas d'asssises pour tout le monde. Des chaises en plastique pour 7h de voyage c'est montrer peu de respect envers les êtres humains... Cela me rappelle certains événements dramatiques de l'histoire !!!.
"Efficient transportation"
Thanks to Blue Star Ferries my family enjoyed a very smooth return trip between Santorini and Naxos. The ferry was clean. Staff very friendly and helpful and journey a wonderful part of a magical week in Greece. Thank you 👌

"Good experience"
Great experience in terms of travel. Ship was well equipped and timely. Only negative was that there was no instruction at all on where to go on either port. No signage towards where to wait or people instructing you. We just followed a crowd which luckily was the right place to wait.
"Poor service"
First they had very poor conditions at the gate in Santorini. The boat was late and we were congested in a small building. Later, when disembarking, there was extremely loud sirene while the ship door was beeing opened. I'm confident some people with medical conditions would get severe head issues after such sirens. Never had it on any other ferry before.
"Brilliant"
Absolutely brilliant service
"Holiday"
Ferries are very punctual, and a nice smooth crossing, part of the holiday
"Travelling on Delois Santorini to Naxos return"
Crazy loading and unloading but it works
"Perfect crossing "
Super efficient service. On time and easy to board and disembark. Staff were friendly and it was smooth sailing straight from Naxos to Santorini
"smooth journey"
Lots of spaces to sit. Very smooth crossing. Snacks and food available. Not sure why the passengers have to be crammed in the hold before the ship has docked - surely it would be safer to have passengers on deck in case of emergency!?
"So poorly organised"
You are treated like a cattle market
"It’s not easy to find your boat at Pireas Athens"
If you are thinking of getting to Pireas from Athens for an early morning ferry to the islands DO NOT CONSIDER BUS OR RAIL. Pireas harbour is vast and as long as you know the name of the ferry line and boat name the taxi driver will deliver you to the correct location for a standard fare of 25€ (05/22). If we hadn’t done that there is no way we would have found our ferry in time.
"Do NOT book a taxi through the ferry!"
Ship was well run. Period. However, do not buy into the extras they try to sell….speaking here of the taxi from Piraeus Port to our hotel at nearly midnite. They offered us a pickup at 26 Euros to our hotel, one we have used before, walked the route, and taken a taxi over the same route for 8 Euros for a day trip, 15 for a nite trip. Their rate was the ‘guaranteed’ lowest rate and I knew better. Don’t fall for the ‘extra’. Just grab one when getting off and save some money, hassle, and time!
"Satisfied passenger"
Had a great experience with Direct ferrirs. The online process was easy, the boat was on time and the trip was smooth
"Great experience!"
The view when you leave the port and when you arrive to piraeus was really wonderful. If you travel in the evening, don’t miss to go out and see the moonlight on the deck. Facilities on board were ok. If you don’t mind about the long time, I would recommend it. It worth your money.
"Traversée Paros / Thira"
Excellente traversée. Cabine confortable. Service très bon.
"Excellent"
Excellent Service
"Paris to Naxos"
Excellent journey both ways. On board food a little more expensive than other operators.
"Naxos to Thira"
Printed booking from Direct Ferries and exchanged it for tickets at the ferry office at Naxos Port.. easy to do. Very busy ferry as weather had cancelled services 2days before. People were in our reserved seats but moved when we asked them to. Very smooth efficient service. 15 minutes late arriving but not bad on a 7 hour journey.
"Cold economy"
Considering the winds, i found the ferry was very steady but theres not really properly indoor space for economy travellers, its a bit of a free for all to grab a seat, so if you're in a big group expect to split up at least for the 1st half of the ride, seriously, take what you can get! Theres a lot of spray that comes onto the seats amd tables so expect to get a little wet and bring a jumper and long leg trousers, especially if travelling at night like us. Toilets are clean and it was at least a prompt service and got us back to Athens in one piece.
"Voyage devacances"
Très bon moment
"Good ferry"
The ferry trip was good. I recommend booking a seat as they are large leather reclining seats with plenty of legroom. This made the journey comfortable and relaxing. A fair amount of food and drink on board to buy. Taking a suitcase is a bit of a scrum at the end as it was so busy- not enough spaces for everyone’s suitcases and not organised at all, so be prepared to battle the crowds getting your cases back!
"Late but good ferry "
45 min late but large ferry Business deck with tables Table service Plugs for charging
"Very good"
Very good experience, would definitely use them again! The ferry was slightly late but that’s usually the case anyway.
"Blue Star Ferries"
As with all ferries in the Greek Islands it's an organised scramble getting on however it is fairly easy and straightforward. There is a space to put your cases but this is a little chaotic with everyone looking for a spot. Once inside Delis felt more like a cruise ship than any of the others I travelled with. Great facilities and food options, clean toilets and friendly staff. I travelled in Business Class, which had comfier seats, and was a little quieter. Lovely waiter service and decent food options. Food is not included in your ticket. Disembarking was hot standing in line but again quick and easy. Overall travelling on Delos was a good experience.
"Expirience onboard"
Excellent experience.
"Very nice"
One of My best sealing trip on ferry. Betteer way than airplane, to see Cyclades
"Excellent "
The ferry was a lot posher than I thought it would be. Nice bars, restaurants, outside areas and seats
"Excellent Ferry Transfer"
Great ferry service to transfer between Greek Islands. Large comfortable ships, very clean and efficient with quick turnaround service at port, great value for money. Would definitely recommend.
"Blue Star ferry Piraeus-Naxos "
Read one or two negative reviews about Direct ferries,have to say from my experience they are not correct. I made a reservation with Direct ferries for the Blue Star Delos from Piraeus to Naxos and it couldn't have been easier. So thank you Direct ferries.
"Take a big jumper "
The ship is nicely decorated. I ordered a seat in the business class lounge. I did not realise it was a sit where you want in a restaurant style setting. I came direct from a flight with only an hour sleep so I hoped that a business class setting would be less noisy. The lounge was packed which is nobody’s fault with many mobiles going and children playing. Unfortunately there were also many announcements so I was unable to sleep. Plus the seats are not designed to close your eyes in. The staff are friendly and there are plenty around. If I was not that tired I would have enjoyed it better. The thing that stood out for me is that the air conditioning was on full blast. I suppose for the staff who are running around it is necessary but for guest sitting around very uncomfortable. Blue Star Ferries did however deliver what was promised. They took me safely from one port to another on time.
"Bad experience "
Ferry didn’t inform us about cancellation its very un ethical we waste our whole day
"Grrrr!!!!"
I am not very happy i pay you 43 e and thé ticket is 36 e Too big commission! It is you et no blue star!!
"great service"
