What To Expect
Symi
Remote yet cosmopolitan, Symi is often referred to as the ‘Jewel of the Dodecanese’, thanks to its breathtaking beauty and abundance of Old-World glamour. Experience the low-key charm and mesmerising architecture of this authentic Greek island on a luxurious day cruise to Symi with Mediterranean Sea Cruises.
Saint George Bay
Our first stop is St. George’s Bay, a spectacular natural bay on the east coast of Symi that’s only accessible by boat. Here we’ll drop anchor for a refreshing 1.5 hours amid a backdrop of turquoise waters and wild, natural landscape. Slip into the silky, crystal-clear sea to swim, or borrow a snorkel to delve into the colourful underwater world. Alternatively sit back, sip a cocktail and just enjoy the view.

5.00Fantastic day, the boat itself was quite impressive - very modern looking and comfortable seats, a lot nicer than the other ones we saw doing the same trip. The itinerary was perfect and St Georges bay was stunning. Symi itself was like something out of a postcard - genuinely beautiful. Everything ran on time and it was a lovely smooth ride over.
Really amazing cruise to Symi!

5.00Absolutely loved the cruise to Symi! The ship was huge and super comfortable — I didn’t expect it to be that impressive. The crew was so polite, friendly. Beautiful views, smooth ride, and great vibes all the way. Definitely one of the best experiences I’ve had in Greece! 💙🇬🇷

3.00overall nice experience, but not massively as depicted - feels like the same experience you'd get on the pirate ship alternatives for €30. main takeaways: > transfer in morning: bus driver rude. > st george bay: beautiful, glad we stopped here - we had 45 min to 1 hour to swim. > symi is beautiful, great island - 3 hours was more than enough > it takes about 2 hours on the way back, rather than the 1 hour 15 advertised (which is fine, but if you're booking for speed you're limited to what the sea is like... on our day, the sea was relatively calm. > any food on board was expensive: €3 for a bar of chocolate. they didn't have change so we had to spend €20. overall a great day trip, just not as advertised (hence the 3 star review)
Should be a 1 star/ waste of time and money.

1.00Simply shocking!!! Wouldn’t advise anyone booking to go with this company. Staff are rude, boat is severely over crowded and no outdoor seating apart from maybe a couple of seats. Some seats are even facing backwards with inches of legroom between you and your opposing person. Boat also has canopy covering whole of back so no sun for any passengers which is false advertisement considering what they have as a picture. Outside of boat Is very clean and well presented but no music or drinks only when stopping which is pointless as it’s cheaper when you get off anyway! Please trust me and do not book with this company absolutely shocking experience I should have gone with someone else and seen the ratings before hand doesn’t even deserve 3.9.
Boat ride from hell

3.00Nice boat, rough seas with everyone getting sick, only one bathroom. Swimming was overrated. Too many people in a tight space. Not much to see on the island when you get to the village. Better getting a ride the calm side of Rhodes and spend the day there and save time and money at beautiful beaches and good food

4.00Small excursion on the island of Sými, the stop for swimming on the bay of St george is great even if short (1 hour). The boat is clean and the staff is friendly. 3 hours on the island is enough for lunch and a walk on the port. In the summer, many people on the boat... However, watch out for your phone network because it can switch to the Turkish network as you approach the coast!
The trip is not as advertised - avoid it if possible

1.00The trip is not as advertised. The schedule is different and there is no visit to St George beach. You just visit the bay and let you swim in a tiny beach nearby. Also, the captain exhibited unprofessionalism to the degree I got to worry about our safety. There are plenty of alternative options for day trip in Symi - avoid it if possible.
