What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Perfect for couples This 12-metre Fjord is an ideal choice for two couples or a small family seeking a relaxed motor-yacht getaway without the complexity of sailing. The 2-cabin, 4-berth layout keeps things intimate and manageable for shorter charters.
Honest value assessment At €9,608 per week, you're paying a fair rate for a modern Norwegian-built motor cruiser with solid build quality, Fjords are known for their seaworthiness and fuel efficiency. However, the minimal onboard entertainment (radio-CD player) and basic spec suggest this is a straightforward, no-frills vessel rather than a luxury option.
One practical note The operator, Tsirigotis Yacht Charter, has limited review data (just one rating at 4/5), so I'd recommend reaching out directly to confirm current availability, support during your charter, and what's included in the base price, particularly fuel and provisioning policies. Getting clarity on logistics from your home airport to the Greek base is worth doing early.
