A Worthwhile Day on Samos - Such a great way to spend a relaxing day on Samos! The boat ride was a nice way to see the southern side of the island. Samiopoula was a nice quick stop to a beautiful beach but the private beach was also fantastic. You might want to bring swim shoes for that one though as the stones are hot! The food and drinks were amazing! The crew was very friendly, efficient, and welcoming. It was impossible to hear what Captain Andreas was saying on the boat though. Definitely bring plenty of water but no food. They give you snacks on the way there and back. I do think their listing should be updated with more information about where they dock because it took me some time to find. And also more information about the schedule of the day.

Sunbathing on Samiopoula beach and BBQ with Captain Andreas on Kakorema beach - Overall it was a very nice day! The tour started with the hotel pickup. This was a bit chaotic in nature (hence only 4 stars), the bus driver did not really know about the tour. The only thing he wanted to know when he got in was “BBQ?”, after which I didn’t know if it was really the boat tour and not another event where there was only one BBQ. Despite these start difficulties everything worked out fine. Only the link of tripadvisor, where the boat is located, did not match the location. Therefore, go after the Google Maps link. The crew of the boat was very friendly and helpful. At the beginning, either juice or alternatively wine was served as well as fresh fruit. The first stop was Samiopoula. A dreamlike beautiful island. However, the ascent over the island to the other side leads over uneven stones. The view of the sandy beach is beautiful! We stayed there for an hour. Please note, however, that there are no sunbeds or umbrellas available there. Next we drove on to Kakorema. There, the BBQ was personally prepared by the captain. In advance, they asked on board if you would rather eat meat or fish. The stay there was three and a half hours. Sun loungers and parasols/sails are available. It is a stone beach, so bathing shoes or other suitable shoes should be taken. For dinner, the captain blew a horn so everyone knew the BBQ was ready. It tasted delicious and was a unique experience. Both on the boat and on Kakorema there is a toilet. Overall it was a very nice and successful day!

Boat trip to Samiopoula Island - At the beginning, sweet Sami wine and orange juice were distributed, as well as small snacks. Samiopoula is very mountainous, but has a beautiful sandy beach on the other side. However, we were only there for an hour, and we were not allowed to use the umbrellas and beach chairs because they were reserved for guests on another boat. After that, we went to the private Kakorema beach. There was just enough space for everyone, if there had been more people, they would not have been able to get a place under the "sunshade", if you can call it that. The food was really good, beforehand on the boat we were asked whether we wanted to eat meat or fish and the captain did the grilling himself. The captain's announcements on the boat itself could not be understood because the boat was already very loud. However, the crew also included a lady who always announced everything loudly. There were toilets on the boat and also on Kakorema beach Apart from the fact that you shouldn't look at the boat if you are seasick or could get seasick, you should also be able to stand the smell of petrol when you are on the boat. And very important, don't book through Trip Advisor under any circumstances. I spoke to a woman who only paid €33 or around €40 with pick-up on their website. Trip Advisor offers it for €52.

Choose another company - The boat was overcrowded - there were not enough seats for everyone, and I highly doubt there were enough life vests. Samiopoula is not worth a visit, as it is dangerous to be exposed to the sun with no umbrellas available on the beach (there were umbrellas, but they were reserved for passengers on a specific boat). The lunch was okay, and the private beach was nice for swimming, but again you had to be quick to secure a space underneath the available umbrellas/canopies. And don’t even think about signing up for this trip if you have any trouble at all walking in rough terrain. (We were fine, but the slightest mobility issues would have meant serious trouble at both landing spots.) The crew were not very friendly, and it was impossible to hear the captain’s announcements over the loudspeaker due to the poor sound quality. If you want to spend money on a boat trip, choose a different company.
