An incredible experience that actually far surpassed our expectations. We had a wonderful time, and the boat operators were so kind and gracious with us. Would definitely recommend this to anyone thinking of doing it.
You will need to take some snacks and drinks or you can buy drinks on board. Lunch is pasta, chicken nuggets and salad (drink not included). We had extra food which we were glad to have as lots of swimming will make you hungry. Hat, sunglasses are essential. You will visit several bays, and will find other boats there too. Neither my wife or myself smoke. Everyone else did and it was most unpleasant. Constant smoking with no restriction. We have been on many boat trips and smokers are asked to smoke at back of boat, to minimise the effect on non smokers and children. I know smoking in Turkey is prevalent , but as non smokers we found it spoiled an otherwise pleasant trip.
great day trip with lots of swimming and sunshine :) the guys on the boar were very nice and accommodating.
One of the most fun excursions we did on our 10 day cruise. The boat was not fancy, but we met the most wonderful people. We stopped at 4 breathtakingly beautiful swim spots with crystal clear turquoise water. Lunch and afternoon tea were included. Would do it again!
Great boat trip, a full day out with four swim stops and lunch onboard. Very relaxing with drinks available to buy. Crew very friendly and helpful.
The boat tour was fun! Luckily I was placed on a smaller boat which lead to a calmer atmosphere. We made 4 stops with time to swim at each. Make sure to not swim far from the boat so you’d have ample time to return when it’s time to go. The lunch was okay - good for it to be included in the price; it was pasta with salad, chicken tenders, and a yogurt vegetable dip. You could also buy snacks and drinks on the boat. I will say, there was one passenger on board that had a gluten allergy and the captain made gluten free pasta for her, which was very nice! There’s also a magnum ice cream boat that comes around some of the swimming spots! It was a nice day and you return with enough time for dinner afterwards. Would definitely do it again and recommend!
We had a great time and made new friends on board. It would be nice to pay more and have beverages in closed, but it was worth the trip.
Comfortable boat, with adequate shade & sun areas to sit.
Friendly crew and plenty of stops to swim.
Amazing day! Boat is really comfortable with bed to tan and a covered area for those who want to stay in the shadow, staff were very kind and the trip was perfect. We went to 4 different spot with clear blue water. Just bring your own mask for snorkeling if you want to cause they don’t have it on board.
Wonderful trip. Swim in 4 different locations. Nice home style food. Good size boat with nice friendly crew
The boat goes to to several lovely places which are all great for swimming.
The drinks for purchase are very affordably priced and the included lunch was basic but good and there was enough for seconds.
The top level of the boat is mostly uncovered so if you want shade you will be sitting in the main part downstairs.
There is no snorkeling equipment provided, but the locations you go aren't the best for that anyway.
I thought the overall value was great, but do no go into this thinking it is something it is not.
We are 3 single travellers from Australia 35-40 years old
We all had a great day on the boat, perfect last day in Turkey
- Easy to find the boat
- Staff were great (Sibsi the main man on deck, absolute legend, looked after everyone and made sure we all had a good time)
- Lunch was really good
- Drinks are available to purchase and price was very good (and there was no pressure to buy anything at all)
Would definitely do it again if/when I am in Turkey again
Fabulous boat trip!! Staff were super friendly and attentive, boat was clean, lunch was delicious and all the stops were great. Highly recommend if you're looking at boat trips 👌
What an amazing experience! We stopped at 4 different places to swim. The whole crew was super nice, accommodating and funny. Lunch with big portions and evening tea/biscuit were provided. Highly recommend this tour!
Such a great trip! The staff was amazing, they were super sweet and took great care of everyone! The lunch they offered was tasty! The views were beautiful and the water was so clear and so nice to swim in. One of my favorite days! Thank you guys!
We went to 4-5 beautiful beaches! The staff was amazing and very attentive! The food was pasta, a salad and chicken strips. We were able to purchase alcoholic beverages on the boat. We loved this experience!
You really do pay for what you get. Boat ride was okay however, the person checking the tickets named Mustafe (has long hair and wears a hat) wanted to start a fight with me for no reason. He was very aggressive and was rude. I asked him about snorkeling and he gave me an attitude and said they don’t offer that. The skipper who gos by jumbo white hair older guy with belly was okay. Food was bland. The swimming was good but i wish they played better music and explained things better. Not what i was expecting.
The crew is very friendly and funny. Food was delicious and tasty. Ice cream boats will come up and sell treats. The swimming locations are absolutely incredible!
Definitely recommend this trip. The whole family with 2 teenage boys all enjoyed. Lovely team on the boat, delicious lunch enjoyed by all. Great experience all round. Would do it again.
It was very beautiful , we enjoyed every stop we made . The food was great and they even provided watermelon and tea towards the end. The view was amazing and the hosts were all great.
We had a great time out on the water on a 33*C day stopping at 4 places to swim and enjoy the scenery. The included chicken pasta and salad lunch was enjoyable and we purchased our drinks at reasonable prices.
The staff were very professional and friendly with a great sense of humour.. Everything was well organised and communicated.
Just go and relax and enjoy 5/5.
The staff were great, very friendly, lively and made the entire experience great. The boat was well maintained comfortable and perfectly suited for a relaxing trip. Lunch was Satisfactory. The boat was not crowded in plenty of room to spread out. Highly recommend this tour.
Really enjoyed the boat trip. Lovely crew! The dinner we had was really nice and filling. Stopped at 4 different bays which were perfect… had plenty of time at each one to swim or chill. Met a lovely lady who was brilliant and has been on the boat numerous times. Defo well worth the money and 5 star rating. Don’t miss out.
Had a great time on the Bayside boat. The crew had a good sense of humour and were very accomodating. We did 4 swimming stops in total at places that had crystal clear water. Lunch was provided and a wonderful day out on the water. Highly recommend to do.
Would definitely book again! We came in from a cruise and the boat was an easy 10 minute walk from the cruise port and quick to find. The crew brought us to 4 beautiful swimming location including a hot spring (admission was an additional 3USD or 3 Euro). The hot spring was inside a small cave and not for the claustrophobic. A small lunch with fresh fruit and Turkish tea was included along with drinks for purchase. The crew was super friendly and were a big part of the great experience. LGBT friendly
You will never feel sorry for the time you spend with the crew or in the trip.
Thank you all for your kind hospitality.
See you next year again.
The guys that run this boat really know what they are doing. They are so friendly and accommodating. The lunch was really nice and the places you visit are beautiful. Highly recommended
Fabulous day on the water. Great atmosphere on the boat, friendly staff. Lunch was great given the price of the experience. Beautiful bays. So relaxing.
It was a pleasant boat tour. The boat is slightly smaller than the classic ones, so it looks a little more exclusive. The crew is nice, too. The approached bathing spots are very nice. Anyone in Bodrum should take this boat tour.
