No guide, but the trip was sold as “independent” so we hadn’t expected one. Arrived at the port around 8.30, collected our tickets, went straight through passport checks and onto the ferry. Ferry departed at 9 and arrived in Bodrum around 9.30. Again passport control was pretty quick, probably around 10 minutes. We had free time in bodrum until 2.45 when we were meant to go back to the port to go through passport control from the boat back at 3.45. This was perfect for us, we saw some sites, wondered around and had lunch. Again passport control on the way back was quick. I heard some complaining that we were waiting on the ferry, but I understand they have to tell you to be back with enough time to go through security so I think it was reasonable. The only slight negative for me was that it said transfers to Kos port were optional but not available on the day we went. The price was the same as the other days that included transfers. Still think this trip was a good price anyway.
Amazing day to Bodrum! Pick up and drop off were on time and really efficient ! The whole process was very smooth and stress free! Would definitely recommend !
