I travelled to Sporades with Natalia twice, once with flying dolphin and another one between Skopelos and Volos (I think this last was Hellenic Seaways). Natalia ship was slow and kind of old fashion, but the staff was very friendly. More facilites should be improved. The flying dolphin was more comfortable. However, shipping is still a trip... and sea in Greece is such a wonder world! I insist to thank you for your service and good advice when my reservation date was wrong. I get ready to advice it to friends.
