The Riva Rivarama 44 is a Santorini luxury motoryacht that will allow you to take a breathtaking tour of the volcano’s caldera or even take a short cruise to the neighboring islands.
Riva yachts have been seducing many celebrities with their aesthetics and acquired the status of design icons and luxury lifestyles since the 1950’s. They have only strengthened their position since then – their yachts always stand out, and we have one on the island!
Rivarama 44 motor yacht was constructed in 2014 and completely renovated in 2020. From the beginning it has been designed primarily with guests’ comfort in mind: the boat has a very unusual design, but everything is thought out in detail. The deck provides ample space for relaxation, sunbathing, and recreation, with designated areas located both at the stern and bow of the speedboat. The motor yacht also has a double cabin in the bow and offers literally all the comforts of a five-star hotel… at sea!
The motor yacht provides the highest level of comfort for relaxing at sea. It includes automatic sunshades, even at high speed, and a folding teak table that can accommodate up to six people. Modern technology, traditions and timeless elegance blend with the beauty of the Aegean sea!
If you’re looking to add a little more thrill and excitement to your relaxing island vacation, the Riva Rivarama motor yacht is ideal for exploring the Santorini caldera and even the surrounding islands. With its sleek design and twin 700 horsepower engines, the Rivarama can quickly change the scenery. Keep your eyes open for a thrilling experience!
You can rent a motor yacht in Santorini either for a casual boat trip or for a special occasion, such as a birthday party. Depending on the time of the trip, you can enjoy lunch or dinner on board. The menu may include a variety of local Greek appetizers, olives, fava, Santorini cherry tomatoes, cheese, apaki and so on. For lunch or dinner, the main course includes salmon with balsamic sauce, Greek honey and mustard, or chicken fillet in sweet and sour sauce and avocado sauce, vegetables, rice, salads, fresh fruit, desserts, wine, beer and soft drinks.
The most important sights are sure to be on your itinerary:
The route takes approximately five hours and can be completed in the morning or closer to sunset. The duration of the evening route may vary slightly depending on the time of sunset.
The morning route starts from the southernmost point of our island and ends in the northwest, near the village of Oia at the seaport.
The evening cruise departs from Oia, and the skipper heads south towards the area of Akrotiri, where you will witness the sunset.
Enjoy the sun and the sea breeze or a breathtaking sunset!

IMPORTANT NOTE: the number of motor yachts in Santorini is limited and they are always in high demand. It is better to rent a motor yacht in advance – 2-3 weeks before the dates you need. During the high season (from May to September) this motor yacht can be occupied every day for several weeks in a row.
If you are booking a motor yacht close to your desired dates, please ask our managers about the availability of a free motor yacht for the desired day before making payment.
In 2024, the motor yacht Riva Rivarama 44 can be rented in Santorini from 01/05 to 31/10. Available days – everyday.
Please note that the schedule of the yacht trip is subject to change. Changes are extremely rare and are usually due to weather conditions on the island or at sea. These can be strong winds, storms, rain or other force majeure situations. We try to inform you about all changes in advance.
Please read Cancellation and Refund policy.
In case there are less than 24 hours left before the trip, please book only after agreeing with the manager on availability.
Before going to sea, it is necessary to issue some special documents (forms with information regarding route, crew and all passengers). To do this, we need the full name (as in the passport), gender, age and citizenship of all participants. If you already have this information, you can write it in the comments field when placing an order.
You will receive your tickets by email or WhatsApp – whichever is more convenient for you.
Please keep all documents and tickets until the end of the trip!
It depends on the location of your hotel or villa. Some cities of Santorini are famous for their narrow streets, which are not so easy to walk even on foot. So in some cases you will need to walk to the main road, some nearest square or parking place, where a car or a tour bus can pick you up. If your hotel has good road access, then the transfer will be able to pick you up directly from the hotel.
After placing an order, you will receive detailed information about the place and time of the meeting, as well as all the necessary documents. Please read them carefully beforehand.
During the season in Santorini there is a lot of sun and very little shade. So you will definitely need sun protection: special cream, glasses, headwear, and so on. If there is a possibility of motion sickness in transport, we recommend that you take appropriate pills an hour and a half before departure. If you plan to sunbathe and swim, bring your swimwear. There are towels, masks, snorkels and flippers on the motor yacht. If you choose the sunset option, make sure you have some warm clothing with you, as even on a hot day it can be chilly in the sea at night.
All passengers on board should have their passport or ID card with them in case the port authority performs a check of the ship. A paper copy or a photo on a cellphone will be sufficient.
If the weather does not allow you to make the motor yacht trip in Santorini, we will try to reschedule it for the next day with good weather. If there is no such date, we will refund the entire amount of your payment.
