GetYourGuide traveler – FranceNovember 1, 2023 – Verified booking
Globalement très bien, mais il est dommage que la baignade ait eu lieu, non comme cela était prévu sur le retour, mais à l’arrivée après une traversée venteuse où chacun était porteur de polaires. De plus, la baie de St Georges était à l’ombre à cette heure là et il a fallu du temps pour que les passagers se décident à y plonger. De fait, l’idée qu’on se faisait de ce moment ne correspondait pas aux photos entrevues la veille « une eau émeraude…. ». Enfin, des boissons chaudes ou froides pourraient être en vente sur le bateau.

Great day trip- easy to find check-in point on the harbour. Seats on the boat are comfortable and the boat is very fast- can get drinks and blankets on the boat also. 3 hours is plenty of time for Symi to wander around the shops, get some lunch and get plenty of photos of the lovely views. Then a short trip to St George's Bay which was stunning- stopped for 30 minutes to swim which we chose not to. Then a speedy return back to the harbour. My favourite day of our holiday- so picturesque and unique!!

The activity went well because Symi is beautiful. Totally worth to go. The boat is fast and you can be well covered from the sun and water. This is only transportation, not a guided Tour, but they could at least explain the times and schedule on a microfone. You can buy drinks once in the boat, but are not included. The time in St. George bay is only half hour, and by the time you get there is all shadow, the sun does not point, so for some people can be less appealing to get in the water. You get into the water from the boat and are quite waters. The view of yhe bay is beautiful and no other boats were around, so it's a nice experience from the water or not (but is not the main attraction of the trip). I definitely recomend to take this transport and go to Symi Island.
