OUR STORY

Straddling two generations of our family, Mediterranean Sea Cruises was founded by Giannis, his father Manos and younger brother Timos.
With 30 years’ experience cruising these waters and multiple tourism businesses encompassing accommodation, car rental and restaurants, Manos brings a world of wisdom and experience to our company.

For the past five years, Giannis has been heading up family affairs, overseeing the growth of the family businesses to include a successful transfers company and Mediterranean Sea Cruises. He brings a passion for new trends in tourism, especially the need for environmental awareness and eco-friendly practices.

Acting as sailor-manager of Doll on our Rhodes daily cruises, Timos is the face of Mediterranean Sea Cruises. He’ll be onboard ensuring that everything is ship-shape under the expert eye of our captain, Kostas, and the rest of our crew.
