Heaven on earth - I can't recommend this tour enough. We were picked up on time outside our hotel by a very friendly man. We got to Rhodes and went on the boat which also had very pleasant staff. The trip was amazing. Like a movie scene. We went swimming in St George Bay. I'm not a confident swimmer in deep water but floats were provided and I loved it. Symi is like a piece of heaven. The boat ride back was a bit choppy but we survived. Our bus man was waiting when we disembarked to bring us back to the hotel. Absolutely fantastic service. Well worth the money. Also I got a text in the evening to ask how was our trip. Excellent customer service. Thank you everyone involved x

Great value for money - Great value for money. The crew was super nice, the trip was Amazing and we had a swim on the way to Symi island in the picturesque Saint George’s beach. Great time. Not sure how are the rest rooms on other similar ships, but these could have been nicer, otherwise a very good trip, thank you!

Loved this trip and the crew (George) - The trip was amazing!! We had an wonderful day and the crew was so welcoming and nice to us. Our friend got sick the morning of the trip and we didn’t have to pay for her ticket because George was such a lovely guy! The crew supported us in the bay making pictures and providing us with swimming tools. We had a very pleasant day and I would recommend this to everyone!!!

Lovely experience, enjoyed every minute! - We truly enjoyed the trip. The swimming stop at St. George Bay was well-timed, an amazing experience and such a lovely place. Three hours in Symi is the perfect amount of time to have lunch in one of many sweet restaurants, stroll around the harbor and maybe buy a souvenir. Wouldn’t have wanted to miss it!!

Nice trip, but uncomfortable boat trip - Important information (eg about departure times, which boat we had to have etc, transfer times) was well announced via email. We even received a text message saying that the transfer would pick us up earlier than planned, nice that we were informed. St. George Bay was very beautiful, the water is clear so you could snorkel well and see many fish. On the boat there were snorkels and swimming noodles available and a small shower, where you could rinse off after swimming. Also you could buy snacks and drinks on the boat, but was only cash and so could not debit (was unfortunately not indicated vtv). The town of Symi was very nice with its beautiful houses, 3 hours is plenty of time to walk around there. Many nice (souvenir) shops and restaurants. The return trip by boat was a bit uncomfortable, because of many high waves. I myself am never seasick, but unfortunately I was now. In addition, some people had to stand or sit on the floor, because there were not enough seats. I definitely recommend the trip and travel company, only the boat trip could be a little more comfortable.

Good experience - Transport was arranged to collect us from hotel which was all good! (Ours for 4 people was 40€ for pick up and drop off). Arrive right on time however was very busy so struggled to find seats together but that couldn’t be helped. Stopped of in at George bay which was stunning but was cut short due to unfortunate circumstances, which leads to my point being that there definitely needs to be some sort of safety talk/briefing and cautions before arriving into the bay!! There was definitely a lack of this and would have felt more comfortable if someone from the crew went over a few safety things. Apart from that Symi was gorgeous and had enough time to do what you want.
