Best boat trip - You stop at some beautiful places to swim and snorkel. The water is so clear.
The captain and crew are really nice, the music was great . The food was buffet that was served to us and it was delicious. The people on our boat were so much fun and really nice to socialize with. I took many boat trips while on the different islands in Greece and this was the best one! Thank you for a wonderful time!

What we assumed was a light lunch and one beer turned into a full meal with unlimited drinks, fresh Greek salad, soulvaki and fruit. We met some wonderful people on board and had a wonderful day! The bathrooms were also very clean.

Yes yes yes! - Such an amazing experience! The atmosphere on the boat was super relaxed and fun — everyone was in great spirits. The food was way better than I expected, really fresh and tasty. We stopped at some absolutely beautiful spots to swim, and it was just so nice jumping into that clear water. Honestly, this was one of the highlights of the trip — definitely a must-do while you're here!

Great service, wonderful trip! - The crew was warm, friendly and made you feel like part of the family! They took us to several spectacular places- we stopped at atleast four different, BEAUTIFUL places to swim and the crew provided information about each place. The lunch was a feast cooked by what I think was the matriarch of the family, all in the galley of the ship. It was DELISHOUS! There was plenty of nonalcholic drink options as well as a great choice of local white wine or a local beer. Both tasted great. There was snorkel masks and pool noodles available for everyone to use which was nice. Tip: make sure to get there 10-15 mins BEFORE the time they suggest ( 30 mins before departure) if you want a seat in the shade which I strongly recommend. Its a full day in the sun and the shade seats are the best seats. Great trip - highly recommend. Would do again!

A great experience - A great time, wonderful stops for a decent abmout of time, great people, though far too many people on the boat itself (I think because it had been cancelled a previous day because of winds and so everyone was put on board this one boat the next day). Overall I would do it again.

Very fun trip - Fabulous lunch. Beautiful scenery. Crew were very nice . My only criticism is the boat was a little crowded and I wish the crew was a little more engaging, told us about the islands, Parian marble, Apollo temple, stories of wwii, etc etc

null recommendation - have now visited the island three times, at intervals of four years. reason have kin here. euphemistically the island is described in advertising as alive.
overtourism describes it better. the mainstreet that runs through the inner town has degenerated into an open air boutique. greek life can forget. fancy mickie touris all over the place. in the local and streets have not only cats overtaken, but also the number of cars, beach buggies, quads and noisy mopeds. the community tries to get over the garbage by erected containers. nevertheless, in every corner garbage. the beaches are nothing great and slightly garbage. if you are looking for recreation you are completely wrong here. besides, the prices of accommodation and in taverns, comparatively very high. what you stand on the pages on the net is simply a lie.
the eiland has been so wrong to the contrary what it used to be, we are no longer going. null recommendation.

Cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice. - We were very disappointed that our excursion was cancelled less than 12 hours before the scheduled departure, with no alternative offered other than a refund. The short notice made it impossible to book with another provider in time. We understand that unexpected situations can happen, but it is quite frustrating when your plans are cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice.
