Lovely day trip - Excellent value for money. Hotel pick up and drop off was prompt with lovely driver. Long day but we’ll worth it as Symi is stunning. Would recommend.

Type of trip - without a guide - Trip to the island was very enjoyable. I used the transport proposed by the office. The driver was on time waiting for us and after the tour to take us to the hotel. Type of trip - without a guide. An element not included in the offer is the possibility of swimming during the cruise around the bay, the ship stops for about 30 minutes. I recommend bringing a swimsuit!

Pretty place to visit. - Simi was a pretty picturesque little place, plenty shops and places to eat. Found the time there more than enough to see/do what was needed.

Bad service - The most memorable part was that even though you advertised the trip with a guide there wasn't one, we were just dumped on the island and left to get on with it.
