She’s back — and she’s glowing!

The M/S Galileo, one of our most beloved small cruise ships in Greece, is officially back in action — and she’s never looked better.

After an extensive winter renovation, the Galileo set sail again on March 21st, refreshed, refined, and ready to welcome guests aboard for a season of unforgettable boutique yacht cruises.

Whether you’re a returning guest or dreaming of your first Greek island cruise, here’s a closer look at the refreshed spaces and the thoughtful details that make this ship feel brand new — while keeping her warm, nautical soul fully intact.

The makeover highlights:

  • Full renovation of all cabin bathrooms
  • New wallpapers, fresh paint, and elegant décor updates
  • Varnished wooden finishes throughout cabins and public areas
  • New carpets from bow to stern

The result? A warm, contemporary, boutique-yacht vibe that stays true to the Galileo’s timeless charm.

Sundeck & Outdoor Bar & Lounge Area

Why we love it:

Always a guest favorite for sunset views and cocktail hours, this open-air space now offers an even more inviting vibe.

Refreshed teak decking, elegant varnished woodwork, and soft, coastal-toned cushions have transformed it into the ultimate relaxation zone.

It’s the go-to spot for sail-away toasts, starry-night drinks, or simply soaking in the Aegean breeze.
