If you plan to stay on beach and need shade bring an umbrella. It’ll be worth it! Lovely visit to beautiful islands!
Nice trip: stop of 1h30 in Iraklia and 5 hours in Koufonissi, where there is plenty of time to visit beautiful beaches with local boats
Thank you for your review! We’re glad you enjoyed the trip and had plenty of time to explore Iraklia and Koufonissi. It’s great to hear you were able to visit the beautiful beaches—local boats really make the experience special. We hope to welcome you on another adventure soon! MTM Travel & Tourism
The island visit to Kaufonisia was too long and the boat left early from Iraklia. There was a couple who was left behind in Iraklia.
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Kindly note that the tour has a specific schedule and timings that arose from experiences over the years. Even though we would like to use your review as a learning experience for our whole team to improve daily. Regards, Mtm Dmc Team
This was a scam. We were contacted the day before that this cruise was cancelled and we were offered a better cruise for same price. My family of 5 showed up to the new cruise and they did not have any info on us and advised we had been scammed. I tried calling back the number and no one answered. And no one replied to my message that I sent. This is a scam.
I loved this day tour! It didn’t take long to reach the islands of Iraklia and Pano Koufonisi. Both islands are small and offer a handful of activities. This is a tour for those people that crave serenity and quiet. I spent my time exploring both islands, enjoying a meal, and relaxing on the beach. I was advised (at time of booking) that the day trip is subject to the weather, particularly high winds. Sure enough, for three days after I had taken the cruise, the cruises were cancelled due to high winds.
Dear Guest, Thank you very much for posting your positive feedback of your recent tour. It is our pleasure to make each guests tour special and one to remember. We hope to have the opportunity of welcoming you back for another even more memorable tour. Best Regards,
I got a message that the tour was cancelled. Reason: not enough reservation. They warned us the day before. Of course, all other excursions are complete or overpriced. Yet, in the announcement, it says that 15 people were needed maximum. Problem is, they won't pay me back. Apparently it's up to trip advisor to do it. But I can't contact them. If you are in the same case... feel free. Thank you.
