Lovely day out

Idyllic island well worth a visit
Hazel_S
, Oct 2021
Lovely island to visit. Although I did not receive an audio guide as part of the itinerary. I did my own thing which was pleasant enough.
Response from Host , Oct 2021
Dear Hazel_S,
thank you for your rating and for taking the time to share your experience with future travelers.
Unfortunately we do not offer an audio guide for the day trip to Symi. Our crew how ever would have been more than happy to help with tips for the visit to Symi island. Also you could have been assigned to an English speaking live guided tour(if available that specific day) if you had mentioned your issue to any of the crew members.
Still it is nice to see that you enjoyed your visit to SSymi Island and we hope to be able to welcome you again soon to one of our Day cruises. Stay safe!

Awesome day filled with beauty and history
Rachel_C
, Aug 2021
Well organised, very enjoyable day trip from Rhodes to 2 points on the stunning island of Symi with enough time for lunch and a dip onto the stunning blue water after a whistle-stop history of the island!
Although it wasn't clear where we should meet the guide, she was easy to spot on disembarking at Symi and very helpful all throughout the day, even assisting with transfers back to the various hotels.
Highly recommend!
Response from Host , Aug 2021
Dear Rachel_C,

We are very proud of our team which always tries to take our customer service one step further. We will also make the information clearer on how / where to meet the guide. Thank you for making us aware.
It was a pleasure hosting you and we hope to see you again soon. Stay safe!
Wonderful boat trip to a very beautiful island

Fantastic trip if you like boat trips to other Greek islands.... On board Sea Dreams , good covid sanitation and social distancing... We did this trip last year and again loved it... but we love boat trips fullstop... Symi is a beautful island and has one of the most beautful port frontages in Greece... (from my experience of 20 different islands....)....Lots of great eateries in the port.... and lovely walking the back streets.... One recommendation.... take a local mini bus to Pedi - a small fishing port some 30 minutes away in another bay... One or two rezzies, fishing boats, very few people - just 6 of us in the rezzie... perfect peace and quiet ..... !!! The cruise onto Panoramitis Monastery... amazing building and complex..... Pretty well all there is there... except two small cafes... A lovely day and a trip I'd do time after time ... !!!!!
Response from Host , Oct 2020
Dear Sultan,
We are super exited that you had nice experience with us and you enjoyed the cruise to Symi and Panormitis. Undeniably Symi is a must visit destination for everyone. It is very picturesque island with plenty of Greek traditions that you can discover there.
Hope see you soon. Stay Safe!
Best regards

Could be better with another ship provider

The Symi city is beautiful and worth visiting! Its wonderful.
However the Panormotis Symi city is so little that it is not worth it. Apart from visiting the Monastery there is nothing to do. Would have liked to visit the bay of St. George instead and swim there.
More over the boat is not stable at all. Many passengers got sea sick
Response from Host , Aug 2020
Dear customer,
We are sorry that your experience was not as expected.
We have to inform you though, that most visitors spend in full the 90 mins they have to Panormitis in order to see the church, the museum, and the church’s shop. Most people, also, spend some time to have a walk at the back yard of the church, which calms your mind and body, and others prefer to visit the traditional bakery or the café. Indeed there many things to do in these 90 mins.
As for the swim on St George, Sea Dreams is a large ship and it is not allowed (obviously) to proceed to a bay for safety reasons. But after the 60 mins of the trip to Symi you have plenty of time to take a small boat cruise to those beaches (there many small boats at Symi that provide that). Sea Dreams is the only company that remains in Symi from 10:00 to 15:30.
Last but not least, is apparent that someone getting sea sick varies from person to person and at the same time it is a matter of the weather, and this apply to every ship.

needs better organisation
samantha_d
, May 2019
the ferry ride across to Symi was fine, the staff were friendly, the boat clean, it takes just over an hour, there are no refreshments available. on arrival in Symi we had no idea what we were doing, we were told to board a bus to go to the monastery, no idea which bus! we found it eventually and were immediately whisked off on an hour long bus trip to the monastery, we had only 25 minutes there, we had to find something to eat and find the WC [which is something i never wish to experience again, a hole in the ground] no time to look around the monastery, back on the bus, back down to the harbour and then 4 hours in Symi, which while beautiful, lacks anything to do other than eat or climb steep hills to reach the town above. Symi harbour is a tourist trap, over priced restaurants and souvenir shops. Symi is worth seeing, I am not sure you need to do a full day trip though.

Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria.
