Trips to symi and lindos - We took this trip and the bus trip to Lindos- we didn’t want the boat trip there because of the walk up from the harbour as I had mobility problems. Both trips were amazingly well organised. We just wanted to be safely taken to and from destinations and left to explore on our own, which is actually quite hard to find. Pickup’s were spot on time, very good value, and on our way back from Lindos our driver even stopped and bought us all a bottle of water - it was a very hot day. Definately recommend this company and was very easy to book direct them for better value. The trips we took also included a little booklet with information about the destinations which was a really nice unexpected addition.

Great trip - on time and gorgeous place. - This was a great boat trip; both departures and arrivals were on time and Symi itself was gorgeous - we think it might be the highlight of our entire stay in Greece! Would definitely recommend booking.

Organised and value for money - Trip was great. George sent us instruction on where to arrive and times the day before the trip, which was very useful. Location of office and pick up location was easy to find. Plenty of seating available on board. We sat on the top deck on the way and sat on the back lower deck on the way back. Top deck was warmer and there was background noise from air outlets, which is expected on a boat of this type. Lower deck had fans and was cooler. The seated area indoors had air conditioning available for anyone who wanted to sit indoors. Drinks and snacks were available to purchase onboard. All the crew were pleasant and welcoming. In comparison to other trips, half price tours was definitely value for money and arrival is much quicker than other trip providers. We had plenty of time to explore the shops, take in the views and have a lovely meal on the island.
