Perfect boat trip
This was a perfect boat trip for our family. The staff was very kind and helpful, the boat was comfortable, and the swimming breaks were well timed. Lunch was fresh and tasty, and having soft drinks included was a big plus. We even saw dolphins, which made the kids very happy!

Don't!!!
No Mood on the boat, 2 hours sailing before the stop at dolphin island which is just some rocks with a little bit of greenery. Not a dolphin or turtle in sight. Lunch if you can call it lunch came only after 2 and you had to wait half an hour in line. Consisted of lettuce little rice, dry chicken and 1 more baguette you really didn't get. The only fun thing was the 10-minute foam 'party'. Not recommended!
事業者からの返答
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. While we are glad the short foam party provided a quick moment of fun, we are deeply sorry that the rest of your boat trip was so disappointing. Please accept our sincere apologies for your experience.
We take your concerns very seriously:
Wildlife Sightings & Atmosphere: While sightings of wild dolphins and turtles depend on natural conditions and can never be guaranteed, we apologize if the cruise itself felt dull or overly long without enough engaging onboard entertainment.
Meal Quality & Long Lines: Serving lunch after 2:00 PM with a 30-minute queue and limited portions is not the standard of service we aim to provide. We are reviewing our kitchen organization, meal times, and portion sizes with our onboard team to eliminate long waiting lines and ensure a satisfying lunch.
We are taking immediate steps with our operations team to resolve these organizational issues and improve the overall guest experience. Thank you for your honest feedback, as it shows us where urgent changes are needed.
Best regards,
Management Team

Worst boat trip ever - turd island!
I’ve been on some great boat trips but this was just awful from start to finish! Picked up in a van that looked like it was about to break down! Got on the boat, was so overcrowded we struggled to find somewhere to sit. It was obvious the minute you got on it, it’s a money making scheme, constantly coming around the boat, trying to sell you things. The first stop off was at a dirty building site ‘beach’ they called ‘paradise’. We saw three human turds floating in the sea!! Then sailed in really choppy waters for hours, people were being sea sick. We then stopped off for half hour to jump in, which was absolute chaos. Then sailed back to the awful ‘beach’ to stop for half hour!! No dolphins or beautiful views as advertised. We all felt like it was a completely wasted day of our holiday. Would definitely not recommend. You are given a nice lunch that has to keep you going for 8 hours or the option to purchase crisps at 5 euros per pack, ice creams at 4 euros or bars of chocolate at 4 euros.

Thank you for sharing your detailed review. We are truly sorry and shocked to hear that your recent boat trip was such an awful experience. Please accept our most sincere apologies for the frustration, discomfort, and wasted day of your holiday.
We take every single point you raised very seriously:
Transfer Vehicle & Capacity: Vehicles in poor condition and overcrowded boats are completely contrary to our standards. We are reviewing our transport partners and enforcing strict capacity limits on our vessels to ensure guest comfort and safety.
Onboard Atmosphere & Sales Tactics: Guests should feel relaxed during a day at sea, not constantly pressured by sales pitches. We are addressing our staff’s approach directly to curb pushy upselling and maintain a welcoming environment.
Stop Locations & Sightseeing: While wild dolphin sightings depend on natural conditions and can never be guaranteed, we apologize that the sea stops and beach locations fell so far short of expectations. We are urgently inspecting the route stops and cleanlines standards at each location.
Pricing & Refresments: We aim to offer fair value for refreshments and meals. We are reviewing our onboard snack pricing and schedule to ensure guests feel well-catered to throughout the day.
Rest assured, we are taking immediate action with our operations team to investigate these issues and overhaul our standards. Thank you for your direct feedback, as it shows us where urgent corrective action is required.
Best regards,
Management Team

Good Tour and Value for money
Good trip - booked through Trip Advisor as was the cheaper way of getting the trip without being ripped of by our Turkish Rep Yunus from Oncur travel.
