Amazing excursion - We originally were booked for the Kos Pearl 3 Island Tour but everyone got moved onto this one. The staff are so friendly and helpful, we sat on the top deck and Costas as fantastic getting everyone up dancing, doing drink runs etc. the first island there is a few tourist shops and cafes - had an amazing milkshake on the beach. You then have dinner on the boat as you get back on. The 2nd island was like a fishing harbour with plenty to do, we took a walk down the back of the shops to explore out of the sun. The 3rd stop there are no shops but a cute church on the side and this is where you stop for swimming. Overall we had a fantastic time and would definitely do it again 😁 to top it off we also saw dolphins which did not disappoint!

Fun day out - I booked this trip for myself and 18 year old son, thought the music and entertainment would be fun and I was not disappointed. the day was well organised the islands we visited were beautiful the stops where fun to swim at . The stop with the slide and jumping in the sea was well organised and I felt safe. The lunch was delicious, be aware no water includes with lunch. The cocktails were delicious and we got up for some dancing whilst sailing. We would definitely recommend this trip.

Great boat trip - We had a great trip on board for a real bargain at just €20 each. We did the 3 Island Tour and were so lucky to spot dolphins — such an amazing experience! The staff were fun, friendly, and really kept everyone entertained throughout the day. The BBQ lunch was a lovely addition and made the trip feel even more special. Overall, it was a brilliant day out and excellent value for money — highly recommend

A little more of expected - Nice trip on a big boat. However, the boat was quite full. On top of the deck in the sun and by the music no place. Downstairs also full and a lot of noise from the engine, so the music was barely audible. There was no menu choice. Everyone got a skewer with salad and pita bread. This was stated differently on the site. The last stop at the water was very short. Just out of the water, not dried yet and we had to go through. That was very unfortunate. At the first island was a beautiful beach with low clear water. Especially enjoyed there. We also saw dolphins during the trip.

So we booked the pirate... - So we booked the pirate ship, only to get there and be told that the pirate ship wasn’t sailing that day but they had this other ship (a normal looking boat) and that it was “basically the same”. The only reason I give this 2 stars is eventually the person managed to get us swapped to a different companies ship in the harbor that WAS a pirate ship. Otherwise this would be 1 star. So double check that the ship you want is sailing the day you book it for.

Do not book - We were booked to go today and yesterday received a what’s app to say the boat wasn’t going and that we would be put on another boat. They would not tell me which one just told me to be there this morning. When we arrived we were shown a boat nothing like what we had booked and half the size. I asked for my money back and they said i would have to get it back from get your guide. They did not give me 24 hours notice so i could not get my money back. Appalling do not book this boat. On the other hand The captain Morgan pirate ship so very kindly let me and my family on for free as they could see how upset we were.

Worst unsanitary unsafe boat trip - This is is not a family day out its an 18-30s party swamp. From the moment you get on loud music starts on the top deck. You try to move to the middle deck and its follows you. So there is no peace on the boat to relax and enjoy the scenery. The stop off isnt a full hour on the assumed islands its 45 minutes if you are lucky. The toilets are abominal and did not flush from the start of the journey to the finish so highly unsanitary, especially with kids. Staff were friendly but very irrisponsible allowing people to vape mid deck and one staff member going below deck to anchor with a fully lit roll up on more than one occasion on the journey. Not reccomnended for any sea worthy journey with a family or not. If you want to pay for a day of hell take some ear plugs and a cushion.
