Callisto

Contact us

The Motor Yacht Callisto is elegant and classic. It has performed several Atlantic Ocean crossings and has also sailed the most interesting coastal sites of Europe, North and West Africa.

This state of the art cruiser offers the highest standard of accommodation, comfort and safety. Callisto is very proud of their service on board, which is discreet and personal at the same time. An evening highlight on board is the local flavour night with a local band and artists. Excursions are designed to give guests an insight into the way of life of the locals without intruding. At the same time, they will also visit the major sites and “must-see” places including local wildlife reserves.

Why we like Callisto

From the captain down to the rest of the crew, all staff are of the highest calibre. The meals are wonderfully presented and first class.

Facilities on board Callisto

All 17 cabins are located on the lower and main deck with large windows on the main deck and portholes on the lower deck. The four cabins at the bow of the main deck offer double beds. Over 16 members of the crew provide an excellent service level, with great attention to detail. The yacht’s public areas are decorated with rich fabrics, handsome woodwork, gleaming brass, antiques and fine works of art.

Activities on board Callisto

During the day, life on board centres around the upper deck lounge and dining areas as well as the cosy library located on the sun deck. The yacht features a broad sun deck for sunbathing and the swimming platform on Callisto’s stern enables you to swim off the ship when in sheltered bays. Service on board is provided by your Captain, the Cruise Coordinator and the additional 14 experienced crew members. All excursions onshore are escorted by a local guide providing important and interesting insights.

Location

The Callisto departs from both Croatia and Greece during the summer season. For Greece join at the Marina Zea near Athens. For Croatia, join in Dubrovnik.

Sustainable Best Practice

Variety Cruises work with local communities, charities, wildlife projects, and undertake beach clean-ups in the destinations in which they operate. Due to their small ships, they cannot carry all supplies and hence source a lot from local providers making this a valuable contribution to the local economy.

Callisto applies environmentally friendly waste management and disposal scheme. They have recently implemented a no single plastic use policy on board. Due to their small group sizes, they have a low environmental impact on the destinations they visit.
