3-timmars båttur

Overall this was a really wonderful day out in Rhodes! We loved the swimming stops and the scenery was amazing. We were given drinks and fresh watermelon as well as snorkels and floaties for the caves. The length of the trip was ideal to be out in the sun for and the staff were friendly and helpful the whole time.

We had a wonderful trip with Sofia the captain who reassured me i would have a great time and would be safe with her..I was totally chilled and was 1st in for a swim when we dropped anchor ...Sofia and her assistant were very kind and knowledgeable about the island...

We had a very nice time. The weather was hot and it was 3 lovely hours at sea. Caroline was friendly, with a good sense of humour. It was a good atmosphere for adults and teenagers.

We took a 3-hour tour and we really enjoyed it. There were also three swimming stops, and I wanted to go into the water at one of them. I was a bit scared, but the staff member gave me a life jacket, so I could go in as well.

We really enjoyed the boat tour. Since I cannot swim well, the staff member provided a life jacket so that I could also go into the water. I found that very kind of her. I would recommend the boat tour. The boat was not full, so we all had plenty of space.

We decided to go on this boat trip to see Ladiko and Antony Quinn Bay, and overall the locations themselves were absolutely beautiful. The swimming stops were really nice and we loved getting to swim in such great spots. The ladies working on the boat were also lovely and very friendly, and the kids really enjoyed the kiddy cocktails they made for them. Unfortunately, there were a few things that made the experience uncomfortable for us. One of the snorkels broke accidentally after another couple used it, and the captain reacted by shouting at them in front of everyone. It was awkward to witness, especially as they simply asked for another snorkel and were refused. The captain’s behaviour throughout the trip also made us uneasy at times. The trip description mentioned “drinks included,” but over the 3-hour trip we were only offered one drink. Another downside was that smoking was allowed throughout the journey, so as non-smokers we spent most of the trip smelling cigarette smoke, which really affected our enjoyment. The scenery and swim stops were fantastic, but the atmosphere on board and lack of consideration for guests meant the experience didn’t fully live up to expectations.

We booked this boat trip while on holiday and started the day having a really lovely experience, which is why what happened afterwards was so disappointing. During the second swimming/snorkelling stop, I went to take the goggles off my head and the strap came loose from one side. The equipment provided was already very old and worn (even the snorkel mouthpiece I was given had part of it chewed away), but I hadn’t complained because we were enjoying ourselves. When I got back onto the boat, the captain grabbed the goggles from my hand and immediately accused me of purposely breaking them. It was incredibly uncomfortable and embarrassing, especially as it happened in front of everyone else on the boat. At the next stop, my partner politely asked if I could simply use another pair so I could continue snorkelling, but the captain refused and again insisted I had broken them myself. I was then effectively singled out and unable to join in while everyone else swam and viewed the fish after they had been fed. One of the ladies working there later apologised to me, which I appreciated, but unfortunately the situation had already made me feel upset and uncomfortable for the remainder of the trip. My partner tried to explain at the end that the way I had been spoken to was unfair, but the captain continued to respond rudely and it escalated from there. Accidents happen, especially with older shared equipment, but the way this situation was handled completely ruined what had otherwise been a lovely day.

Crammed into the boat and on deck. All inclusive soft drinks and wine. Received with difficulty 2 glasses of soda for 3 hours. More quiet as hazards

Very good boat captain and crew. The trip to the island with some good snorkeling. The water is crystal Clear and warm. Nice experience.

Myself, my partner and his mum recently visited Falaraki and booked the 3 hours cruise with Sofia Sea Cruises via get your guide. When we arrived at the harbor we were greeted by a lovely lady who checked we were booked on. We boarded the boat in due time and set off. The day of our cruise the weather was a little cloudy (as can be expected for a visit at the end of October!!). The cruise is meant to stop at 3 swimming spots however the captain advised us due to the sea swells he did not feel comfortable stopping near the caves as it is obviously very rocky. We did not mind this as it is something out of our control. We stopped at the second stop and was told we were allowed to get off and swim. With the weather being on the cloudier side, I personally did not get off for a swim, however my partners Mum braved the sea (which was still warm!!). Staff were extremely helpful offering her a life jacket as she was a little nervous and continually checked on her to make sure she was okay. We then stopped at Anthony Quinn Bay where we were credited with a little extra time to swim due to missing the first stop. This is a very beautiful serene place with beautiful clear blue water. We were also offered complimentary juice, white wine, fruit and some little nibbles which I felt was a lovely added touch. The lady who was working this day is an absolute credit to your team! She chatted with us and the other people onboard (in multiple languages) and joked with us about all the old UK tv shows as I believe she is from the UK or lived there for some time, I am sorry I do not remember her name!! If I was to return to Falaraki in the summer I would not hesitate to book another trip with Sofia Sea Cruises. Thank you for a lovely trip!!
