“Really amazing trip. Smooth booth ride around the east coast. Really fun and would go again. Food was delicious. Guides and crew were lovely, informative and great people. The swimming stops were super special. We sat on the upper deck and it was perfect, highly recommend getting first on so you can get a great spot on the boat”
Review of Rhodes to Symi by ferry, with Panormitis Monastery, free time in Symi Town, optional swim stop, tips, timing, and value.
“from collection at our hotel this was a well organised day. The arrival at the Monastery was lovely with the church bells and it's so special to visit, we also saw a turtle in the water at the port. Symi was beautiful, a real gem, and we loved all the little shops. You have to try Symi Shrimps as a real treat and recommend the Noddy train as a way to sea the village from all angles.”

“Excellent day out to a beautiful island , swim stop on the way to cool off , great vibe on the boat and great staff”

Review of Rhodes’ Lindos cruise with Anthony Quinn Bay and Tsambika swim stops, three hours in Lindos, onboard bar, sunbeds, and practical tips.
“The whole day went smoothly. The crew were all friendly and professional. Transportation there and back was prompt with no issues. The boat itself was clean and seats were very comfortable. Plenty of shade if you didn’t want the sun. Great bar with plenty of drinks and snacks. The crew kept the boat clean after each swim stop. Lindos itself was beautiful and the views from the acropolis were stunning. Plenty of shops and tavernas along the bay for food or drinks. There was also plenty of time for the two swim stops, if you fancied a dip to cool down. A fantastic time was had and I would definitely…”
Review of Rhodes’ six-hour Romantika swim cruise, with three bays, Greek buffet, open bar, snorkeling gear, and practical booking advice.
“The crew was amazing. Both helpful and entertaining. The boat was in great shape and the food was authentically Greek. Do yourself a favor and spend a couple of dollars more and book this excursion. You will not be disappointed. Other boats we drove by were extremely crowded while this on was limited on the passenger count. The food was freshly made and the bartender was a professional. Please bring lots of sunblock.”
Swim three beautiful Rhodes bays from a comfortable catamaran, with snorkel gear, fresh cocktails, local snacks, and an open bar.
“AMAZING! Super host, perfect music selection & stunning swim stops!”
See Rhodes from the sea on a 45-minute Poseidon Submarine cruise with Old Town views, underwater windows, fish feeding, and deck seating.
“Fantastic value for money, we saw lots of fish and the diver was great, boat was very busy, but that was due to people taking up several seats! Downstairs we struggled to get seated (just me and my 8 year old), but the team came down and got everyone to move, allowing lots of space! So a great trip! Beautiful scenery”

“Great experience and value. The bus transport was on time, quick and easy. The boat experience was wonderful. Snacks and drinks available for purchase. The swim stop and trip to Symi were great. I would definitely recommend this excursion!”
See Rhodes Bay through 22 underwater windows, watch a diver feed fish, and enjoy Old Town views on this easy 45-minute cruise.
“amazing, sailed around the open water near the ports, then stopped and watch the scuba diver bring the fish to the submarine windows so we could all see, he put a performance on which was fun. they wait till everyone gets to see the scuba man's show. there was over 30 on the boat an still loads of space to see everything, we went down the stairs under the submarine in two groups. this was cheap an excellent value and service.”
Fish off Rhodes, swim by Kallithea Caves, and enjoy a fresh BBQ aboard a small boat with a friendly crew.
“It’s a relaxing few hours out on the water but the fishing is so so. We stopped in 3 places which is where I think the boat stops each time - a few bites and 3 tiny fish caught. The many fish on the wire in the photos is not necessarily what has been caught that day! Lunch was fine - a well-cooked bbq by the captain - who was a very nice man. The younger man came across as both annoying and insincere in how he communicated with everyone. It was an ok day.”
