Good way to see Lindos -...

Wayne_S, Oct 2025

Good way to see Lindos - weather was a bit cool for the swimming portion - would have been nice to have offered an on site guide.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the opportunity to visit Lindos and appreciate your comments. We’re sorry the weather wasn’t ideal for swimming during your visit — late October can sometimes bring cooler or cloudier days, even though temperatures often remain pleasant. As mentioned in the tour description, this is a non-guided trip designed for guests who prefer to explore Lindos at their own pace, but we completely understand that some travellers might prefer a guided option. For future visits, our bus tours, with or without guide, may be a great alternative. We hope you still enjoyed discovering Lindos and would love to welcome you on another experience when you’re next in the area!

Excellent Lindos boat trip

Yvonne_L, Oct 2024

Trip was very well organized. We actually missed our pick up at the hotel (my fault) and although we had to get a taxi they did send a SMS and rang me twice to make sure we didn't miss the trip, without that we would have missed it and lost our money, so I'm very grateful. I will definitely book another trip when we come back. Boat clean, stops amazing.well done to the crew.

A memorable and enjoyable trip for all ages

Fabulous swimming stops and Lindos is beautiful with several cafes and tavernas. Walking uphill in the heat to the acropolis ( we arrived at noon) was too much for me but others managed it. I was disappointed that our return transfer was considerably delayed as we waited for another tour group to join our bus. It made a long day too long.

Lindos beach

Joseph_T, Sep 2023

Brilliant weather with Brilliant people. Lindos was absolutely beautiful and the stops for a swim were outstanding.

Don’t hesitate just do it 😁

Mary_C, Aug 2023

The comfort, the food and drink options on the boat where really good. Everyone on the boat were lovely and welcoming, informative and friendly. Transfers from the hotel to the boat and back where really good, comfortable and the driver brought us straight to the tour guide. Highly recommend this trip!

Lindos is amazing

Cheryl_P, Jun 2023

Absolutely huge boat. People pushing and shoving for seats.. we unfortunately had a young couple who were drunk by 930am, shouting. playing loud music, that you couldnt here a thing.. them starting dancing around and disrupting everyone. No one came and told them to behave.

very nice trip to Lindos

Douglas_O, Jun 2023

very nice trip to Lindos; arrangements online were efficient by email; picked up on-time at a convenient location; 9 hours trip

Poor customer service

Rachel_P, May 2023

Trip was cancelled half an hour before we were due to be collected but we didn't see the message and had already left the hotel and paid for a taxi to get to the pick up point only to be told by the coach driver it was cancelled and we had to ring the company. Very poor customer service would not recommend.

Response from Host, May 2023

We are very sorry that the weather did not allow the boats to travel and therefore upset you. As you say yourself, you did not see the message. We had been trying to contact you since 7:15 am (as soon as the Port authorities informed us - of course, there is a way to see the missed calls), and your pickup was scheduled at 08:05 am. We called several times and left a voice message on your phone and a message on Viator, but there was no response. Nothing. There was the last chance left - meet you at the pickup point. What else can we do? We are sure that if you had picked up the phone, you would understand that we cared about you. We even changed your pickup location so it is closer to your hotel, although it was provided late at night. We understand you might be more upset about the boat cancelation than the service. Some things are not in our hands, like strong south winds at the beginning of May.

Nice but not worth it

Joelma_B, Apr 2023

Lindos itself is beautiful, nice warm water, good restaurants, the view is perfect if the weather is nice however it feels like we spent most of the time on the boat. 2:30 hours each way is long to only spend 3 hours in town. The boat could at least be more entertaining, maybe screens, someone talking about the scenery, have more snacks…. To me it isn’t worth it because of the long journey. The scenery is beautiful and lindos to

Not the best but I’m sure there are worse too

Jaqueline_M, Aug 2022

The boat Triton: gets 3 star for getting us safely to and from Lindos. With the two advertised swims and 3 hours in Lindos everything is as advertised. They lack an understanding of good customer service. Me and my kids sat on the stairs for two hours as there was not enough seats for all the people they let on. I was told to sit in their air conditioned area 16C freezing cold after a day of swimming with wet hair and damp clothes unacceptable. They cared nothing of our discomfort, even after voicing my concerns. Manos Going who arranged the excursion gets 2 star for getting us from the hotel to the boat and back. The agent who greeted us at the harbor exhibited racist behavior as the only black people in the group of roughly 15 travelers not one was asked for tickets to be handed their boarding passes he just asked for names. I gave him my name and although I could see it on his clipboard he insisted I show him my ticket. The couple behind us had their tickets ready but he only needed their name. If tickets are standard do it for most not just the only black travellers. He also went on a tired racist rant about a Romani woman panhandling. So I know he is a racist. Fix your agents Manos Going or maybe disclose on your website so black travelers know what to expect.

The swimming stops were honestly so beautiful and everything was so well organised - staff were lovely and very understanding. Lindos was stunning!! Could either sunbathe on top of the boat or find shade inside. Made the most amazing memories here
