Isla Symi Día completo con Monasterio de Panormitis con recogida

I really enjoyed Symi — it’s beautiful, and Panormitis Monastery was lovely. The sponge factory was interesting too. Our tour guide was very pleasant and shared quite a bit about Symi, including its sponge trade and shipbuilding. I did find the commentary a little repetitive, though, and felt some important parts of Symi’s history, particularly its periods of conquest and Ottoman/Turkish rule, were missed. The biggest surprise for me was the travel time. The tour was 8am–6pm, but around 5 hours 45 minutes was spent travelling, leaving limited time to explore Symi. Definitely something to keep in mind before booking.

We’ve traveled with Discoverd1 a bunch of times over the years and honestly they’re the best guided tour company we’ve found in Rhodes! Everyone’s super friendly, easy to talk to and they really care about making sure you’re comfy and having fun 🤩 Last time we stayed in Haraki and they even picked us up for free 🙌 which is amazing because Haraki isn’t the most popular spot and it’s kinda far too! That little detail just shows how much they go the extra mile Their prices are also super affordable so me and my husband got to book a few tours in one trip 😍 we did some cruises, the 6 hour Chalki tour with swimming (so relaxing 🐠💦) and our absolute fav was the Symi Island + Panormitis Monastery tour… breathtaking views and such a peaceful vibe 💫 Really grateful for the experience and definitely recommending Discoverd1 to anyone coming to Rhodes! You’re gonna love it 💛 t!

Ferry from Rhodes to Symi. A return ticket to Rhodes port costs €25, while online it costs €34. Running time 1 h 20 min. First stop at Panormitis Monastery. I didn't really like it. Second stop, a few minutes in St. George's Bay, to take some pictures. Finally I arrive in Symi, a cute village, with its colorful houses that are reflected in the sea. Lovely landscape, with spectacular views from the sea. In symi there is also a train that leads to the panoramic point, cost ticket 8 €. Many souvenir shops, restaurants, beautiful beaches. Very nice day. Recommended!

The island of Symi is definitely worth a visit! Interesting construction of the houses and history to the island. Very friendly residents. Monastery of Archangel Michael in Panormitis is very interesting and worth a visit!

Nice boat crossing. To enjoy the beautiful view of the village. Get the wheels ready to heat up, we're climbing. The houses are very nice.

Symi is a beautiful place to visit. Loads of restuarants,shops and little side streets to explore. Lunch we had was excellent at Tamkin, right beside bridge at end of harbour. St.Michael archangel monastry is also a great place to visit,1 hr is plenty time to explore monastry and light a few candles. Only problem with trip was because we were picked up 20mins late we barely made boat for 9pm and could not get a seat anywhere, boat was crammed with people. We eventually got a seat at smokers area at back of boat,neither of us are smokers and the area itself was extremely warm with very little air,very uncomfortable. This was the only blip on a wonderful day

This island is very pretty. There is a long way to get there but it should be done without hesitation. The guide was fascinating.

Nice trip just be carful which boat you pick it took 2 hours to get over from Rhodes harbour and sane back. Such a pretty place to see and take in a bite not much else to do only admire the beautiful place. Not enough time to visit the monastery before we had we board again worth a 1 night stop over

the monastery was beautiful and worth going but the whole thing lasts 30 minutes maximum. Symi: it takes an hour and a half to get there and then 3 hours 3 half to pass was hard... take the train that goes around the islet but do not expect anything big.... but at least do something... nice shops, nice views but I would not do it again ... so just do the monastery maybe with some hydrofoil that goes directly or to the monastery or to symi, at the port of Rhodes there is a wide choice.

The ferry crossing takes about 1 h 35 min. Afterwards you will find yourself in a small paradise with lots of history, bright sunshine, wonderful views and delicious food. Those who like can also shop there or go to the hairdresser. Small group Informative Great excursion ☀️🍽️⛴️🏝️🏺🔱🌴🐈🐟👼 👨‍🌾💯🇬🇷🏛️
