Top Rhodes Day Cruises

Our trip to Symi Island and St. George Bay was absolutely amazing! The crystal-clear waters were breathtaking, and swimming there felt like a dream. Symi itself is stunning – it honestly feels like stepping into a movie set, with colorful houses and such a unique atmosphere. The food was delicious, and the staff were very professional, making sure everything went smoothly from start to finish. We also had transport provided, which was very convenient and made the whole experience stress-free. The only downside (and kind of a funny one) was the boat itself – a bit rusty, crowded, and not the safest-looking. But when you’re young, you just want to enjoy the adventure, and it definitely added to the experience! Still, it would be nice if the boat got a little update for comfort and safety. Overall, it was a long trip but totally worth it. I’d highly recommend it for anyone visiting Rhodes and wanting a special day out!

So highly recommend! We wanted to see more of Rhodes and be able to swim, but wanted to avoid large groups - this was perfect for us! Great size, great people, great views and just had an amazing day! Theodore and the crew were so kind and helpful. Would recommend!

This tour was excellent and a nice break from seeing ancient cities and ruins. The boat was set up with outdoor couches that were comfortable and allowed everyone a place to sit. The three swim stops in coves were truly great. Crystal clear water and the third stop had an amazing cave that we swam to and into from the boat. Noodle floats were provided as well as swim masks. Some brought their own snorkeling equipment and I wish we had as well. The captain and mate were friendly and safety oriented. Soft drinks and adult beverages were provided at no extra charge. Fresh fruit was cut up on board and it was a nice addition to get a healthy snack. All in all a fun and great experience and just the right length of time. Ps. The sun was intense so be sure to bring sunscreen

Very well organised day out to Symi. Collected from our hotel on time, correspondence beforehand was excellent, driver was friendly and polite. Arrived at Rhodes and was met by a guide who explained where to meet our boat and times, again friendly and efficient. Boat was busy but trip was good, were able to sit on deck in the sun and enjoy the views. Firstly stopped at the monastery in Panormitis which was really lovely, had plenty time to wander round and enjoy the place before heading to the town of Symi on the boat. Docked in Symi and the place is breathtaking, wandered around and saw the majority of highlights. The small shops are lovely and it was really nice to visit some of them, we had pizza in a small place just off the Main Street and it was really good. After a few hours it was time to head back to the boat and make our return to Rhodes. It was easy to find your way around Symi, we never felt lost, but we never travelled out of the town itself as it was a particularly hot day. But to be honest, we didn’t feel we needed to as we were having such a nice time in the town. Return boat trip was equally as good and enjoyable, and our transport was waiting for us exactly where he said he would be, driver was again very welcoming and escorted us back to our hotel. Overall, it was a very enjoyable day, and we would do it all again in a flash. What a lovely experience, we would really recommend it.

The tickets produced by viator took us to the wrong pick up point or wrong time as it had already left! We were sent to another pick up Point but it had also left by the third pick up point they had managed to let the boat know so it waited for us and we got on just in time. The staff at each point were great which was lucky for us but disappointed in the fact that tickets were issued incorrectly and probably won’t use Viator again based on this. Would recommend the trip but not viator.

We booked our trip online and had confirmation and a text message from our driver that picked us up from our hotel at 07.45, an early start. George our driver was very polite and the 6 seater minibus was very clean and air conditioned. Although we had booked we had to join a Q at the port to let our boat tickets then join another Q so make sure that you arrive early. The trip took 2.5 hours, stopping in a bay for swimming off the boat before arriving in Lindos. So bring swimming kit. Arriving in Lindos it was a hot walk to the Acropolis winding through cobblestone streets packed with tiny shops and cafes. There are great views and At the top there is another Q to enter the Acropolis. We decided to walk down and get cold drinks in a nice bar with a view of the harbour called Rainbird. Returning to our boat it departed 14.30 with another stop in a small bay for swimming. Great day out and we were met by George and taken back to our hotel.

I had a great time. My only remark would be I think the tour would be better especially early in the season or for any time the water weather is cold, for the company to invest in either portable heaters or those disposable packages where you can twist them and they generate heat. Other then that, great tour.
