What to expect

Wind in your hair, sun on your face, you can catch some rays on deck as you set sail from Mastihari. Aboard a traditional Kaiki boat, it's time to relax and unwind as your captain drops anchor at secluded bays and swim spots at the neighbouring islands of Nera and Kalymnos. Eleni, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Kaiki are the colourful wooden boats that Greece is so famous for. We are a nation of boatbuilders and fishermen, and even though many Kaiki boats are now used for tourism, look out for them still being used for fishing.'Sun, sea and swimming – a trio of things that make being on holiday so special. Your journey will take you across to the tiny isle of Nera, home to a single house and a handful of deserted coves. Sailing onwards to Kalymnos island, you'll reach the shores around Vlyxadia where you'll be able to cool off in the Aegean and try your hand at snorkelling if you're in the mood. The waters here are calm and clear – and if you're lucky, you may be able to spot the dolphin and sea turtles that call the area home.You'll have free time to make the most of the great swimming spots, top up your tan on deck, or see what you can spot underwater. By lunchtime, you'll be ready for a freshly prepared lunch made with locally sourced ingredients. After tucking into local specialities and Greek favourites on-deck, there's more opportunities for swimming, before it's time for the return trip complete with great views over the water to the Kos coastline.

The trip itself was fantastic, with 3 great locations to swim and snorkel. Staff were friendly. However this is sold as a 3 island trip with freshly cooked food with Greek salad and tzatziki It is 3 stops but not 3 islands - none the less 3 good spots. The food on the other hand is the biggest let down. Most certainly not freshly cooked. A pork kebab was served that was cold and dry thee traditional Greek salad we were promised was basically a plate of shredded cabbage

A wonderful day out on a boat! We made three separate stops where you were able to either go ashore to look at the area/museums etc or take a swim/snorkel in the sea. Lunch was provided and was very tasty! The trip was good value for money too. I would recommend this and would do it again.

Great day, there was enough time at each stopping point to spend some time exploring , the food was good and my son particularly enjoyed being able to jump from top of boat I would highly recommend. Just remember to take your goggles and snorkel we forgot ours which was annoying.

It was a lovely experience and overall a lovely day. Considering the space available and numbers on board the staff did a really good job of making sure everyone was safe and had a good time.

Enjoyed the variety of the islands and the opportunity to swim at each one. Didn’t enjoy the long coach transfer as we had multiple pick ups that it meant by the time we reached the boat my children were already feeling sick, that when we got on the boat they felt unwell for the first part of the journey and didn’t initially enjoy it. If there was an option to pay extra to get a private transfer direct to the harbour I would have done this.

All 3 stops were lovely, the 1st stop was more a bit of history and lunch which was nice but not a bbq like advertised. You pre order lunch when you get off the coach and was nice but I would have preferred different choices. Second stop is a nice beach although pebbled. Thev last stop is by far the best where you get to jump off the boat and swim on the sea, unfortunately we didnt see any dolphins or sea turtles which would have madebit that little more special..The boat itself was an experienc

First stop is a bit naff. You feel like you’re waiting around for lunch and dont have the time to go and explore. Other islands stops are fabulous.

Trip did not pick up from our hotel (and the pickup was about 20 minutes late). The hotel given as a pickup up point didn't even seem to be open. The second of the two stops could have been skipped. A smal cramped beach that was very awkward to get into the water from, seriously, just dropping that part of the trip would have improved this trip's rating.

The boat seemed quite crowded The lunch stop was a nightmare, we were sat at the back of the restaurant along with about 5 other tables and our food arrived when we were due to leave. Felt rushed to eat it, my daughter didn’t eat hers as she doesn’t like being rushed so went without lunch

Beautiful scenery, and amazing to stop and swim throughout the day. It does feel like a bit of a rush to get through all the stops, especially the lunch stop.

Really enjoyed the two after lunch stop off places. Great swimming and snorkelling. Not enough free time on Kalymnos. An extra hour would have been great. Lunch was a bit rubbish. Very basic and in/out service. Sea swell between islands was rollercoaster like. Obviously weather not controlled by the crew but had a detrimental effect on the overall trip which was a shame. Saw a dolphin jumping!
