Too many people, needs more information - This tour said it would be max 15 group size, there were well over 150 people. We were shuttled to the boat in a large bus at 8:35am from our hotel in Paros Bay, and then put on a ferry at Piso Livadi at 10am. There was no guide or details on the Viator page other than a very loose itinerary. I also could not find any reviews or ratings. It took about an hour to arrive by boat to Iraklia and were were given a little under 1.5 hours there. We managed to walk over to Livadi beach, have a quick swim and then go back to Iraklia beach before reboarding the ferry. Next stop was Ano Koufonisi which took about 30 minutes to get there. We were given 4.5 hours at this stop and left at 5:30pm to return back to Paros. You can buy shuttle boat tickets to take you along the coast of this island and also to Kato Koufonisi island for €5 unlimited hop on off. It takes about an hour to just do a round trip and then depart hourly. This was a nice way to see the coastline. The beach near the port at Ano Koufonisi is by far one of the nicest beaches we have been to in Greece. We had lunch at the bakery and drinks up by the windmill to the left of the port which had some very nice views from the bars. And the rest of the time was spent in the beautiful beach. The journey back took about an hour, then another 45 minutes to get back to our hotel just before 8pm. If you want a guided tour, this is not for you. The ferry was nice enough with a bar and clean toilets and air conditioned inside. The staff we did speak to were lovely, we just were left a little in the dark but that was fine and we managed to have a good day.
