You'll stop for a swim at the boat‑only Gidaki Beach on this full‑day Ithaca cruise
There's time to check out Vathy's pretty harbour and browse local shops
You'll wander Kioni's flower‑lined lanes and waterfront spots, with time to grab lunch

Cosa aspettarsi

A dreamy day on the water unfolds as you set off on a cruise around the island of Ithaca, taking in its beaches, villages and postcard‑worthy views. You'll start with a swim at the boat‑only Gidaki Beach before heading to the island's lively centre, Vathy, to wander, shop and soak up the harbour vibe. After that, you'll sail to Kioni, known for its flower‑lined lanes and relaxed waterfront tavernas that are perfect for lunch and a stroll. You'll wrap up the day with a dip at Ammoudi Beach, a calm little cove with clear water, before cruising back to port.

Brilliant day loved the trip on the boat and the trips to the fishing villages would have liked more time there but don’t know how this can be achieved as it’s was a full day pick up 7:45 drop off 7:15

The Ithaca cruise was very well organised & the staff were very pleasant & friendly. The amount of time spent on Vathi however could have been a little longer, but it was adequate as a comfort stop. Not our first time to Ithaca but certainly a different experience altogether, which we enjoyed.

Great

Enjoyed all 4 stops around Ithaka Island. There wasn't a working TUI rep on our trip, although our TUI rep was on trip on his day off and so wasn't a working rep. Very long day from Karavados Beach Hotel... including all the coach hotel pick-ups and drop-offs, all-round trip was 13 hours which is tiring and disappointing if you get back to hotel too late for pre-paid half board dinner.

Pick up to boarding boat was two and a quarter hours this was unacceptable and we paid for a taxi back. Cruise very good but overcrowded We did this trip two years ago with a Greek company from Scala and was much better in comfort information and time in Vathy.

De reis met de boot is net zo leuk als met de bus maar in de bus heb je reisleiding op de boot is het de kapitein en die is niet te verstaan.

Poor

Absolute joke of a trip, no guide. Overbooked cruise with no space to relax. Overpriced and a complete waste of time ruining what is meant to be a trip to a beautiful location with Ithaca.

Not having a rep on the coach meant we had no guidance about how the day would unfold. The bus was a bit late getting to the port, so we had to scramble for good seats on the boat. Generally the cruise was good, but the seats upstairs were cramped in places. We enjoyed the views and the crew were cheerful. The commentary was difficult to hear, but the swim stops were great and safely organised.

Great

Not enough cover from extreme sun/heat. Uncomfortable seating without cushions for a full day cruise . Oversubscribed so little seating left when we arrived in minibus. No supervision & very little assistance during swim stops, people left too much to their own devices ie jumping off boat top when others in water.

Good, well informed staff. friendly and always ready to help/talk. The boat had been booked to full capacity or over as some people did not have a seat. Perhaps a larger boat is needed.

The trip was fantastic, beautiful views and very helpful, friendly staff. Our Tui guide, Tia was amazing. Tia ensured we all knew what to expect, our group stayed together and everyone knew where they needed to be. Tia was really enthusiastic and knowledgeable, she made the trip fun and informative. We had the perfect amount of time to swim, explore the towns and have lunch. The only downside was how many people were crammed on the boat. Although, this did not spoil the day! 100% recommend :)

Boot veel te vol, strak op elkaar, wordt volop naast je en om je heen gerookt. Voelt niet relax. Zwemstops waren verademing, voelde je even vrij. Reis duurde veel te lang, 7.50 vertrokken en 19.15 pas terug, anders dan ons is verteld. Weinig over omgeving verteld onderweg, alleen iets bij vertrek over de boottocht en als je bij zwemstop aankwam. Kortom, slechte ervaring. Komen meerdere jaren in Griekenland, dit zo nog niet meegemaakt

We loved this trip. The swim spots were absolutely gorgeous. We accidentally left behind my daughter's swim vest, but didn't need to worry as they had a whole host of swim equipment on the boat for the less confident swimmers. The hosts were welcoming and spoke at least 3 languages. Yes, the boat was busy but it wasn't over full and it was managed well. I wouldn't recommend this if you want to explore Ithaca as the two visits (Vathy & Kioni) are short. Views are gorgeous and perfect for swims.

Poor

Boats way overcrowded, very uncomfortable as squeezed in among very wet bodies after swimming. Seats taken by others if you get up. No time to look around if you needed to eat. Very rough journey back and had to hold under seat. Not fun when you’re old. Staff played “titanic” in amusement. My husband was very nervous. Not told where or when our pick up was. Stood in a group on quay side not knowing what we were meant to do. Did this trip before and loved it but never again. Sorry TUI

There were too many passengers on the boat. Out of my group of five only three of us had a seat and they were chair put at the back of the boat where everyone went off/came on when there were swim stops. Not enough time in Ithaca. Very expensive and not value for money!

We wanted to revisit Vathy and Kuoni (10 years after our last visit) whilst staying on Kefalonia, and this trip fitted our needs perfectly. Transport pickup was very good, however for the return pickup we were only given very vague instructions (when dropped of) as to where we would be collected. Ultimately the return pickup was no problem, but for 5 or so mins a group of us were all discussing "were / when". But it was only a very minor point as the day was very enjoyable

Pickup from hotel on time in air conditioned coach, stunning views on journey to Agia Efemia. Beautiful boat, good crew, lifejackets visible as well as under seats. Toilet and drinks to buy on board, free water. Excellent swim stops, pool noodles available. Very clear timeframes given for stops at Vathy & Kioni, plenty of time for a wander, shopping or food. 2nd time we have done this and would do again. Music could be a little quieter, rubbish bin overflowing at the end - but hardly a negative!

Over three hours travelling on a coach is not acceptable especially without prior notification. My wife did a similar cruise last year which was very good, but we were given the impression that that didn’t go anymore. We later found it on the TUI app.

The cruise and swim stops were fantastic with lots of amazing scenery. With the transfer time it was a long day and we would have liked more information about the area. Having done an Ithaca tour last year we were happy that this was simply a cruise but for those visiting Ithaca for the first time, I think they missed out.
