About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Janet F0 contributionsFantastic dayFantastic day trip what a lovely island great day from start to finish from pick up from the hotel to drop off.Highly recommend. After visiting the volcano we had free time on the islandWritten November 2, 2024
- X1282TBnicolem0 contributionsWorth visiting, but plan smart before you go. Crowded.If you are not planning to have dinner there, it is more than enough to spend one hour there. The sunset was lovely, but crowded, so hard to see much. There are literally 2 streets there and a little climb up to the church. Some lovely shops, some cats and that's it. The restaurants looked beautiful too. Worth going, but 4 hours was way too long for us.Written November 2, 2024
- janetf580 contributionsLovely islandWhat a lovely day we had at the island of Nisyros. From pick up to drop off it was a fantastic day. Really well organised. Boat over to the island was great we stopped at the volcano for just over 30 minutes which was more than enough. Then we had a good few hours in the town we didn’t stay with the guide we just did are own thing. It’s a stunning place with fantastic views.Written November 2, 2024
- Terence M0 contributionsKos to Bodrum experience Aegean TravelThe tour guide never turned up we were never directed to a boat. We never got to go on tbe trip. It was overall very embarrassing to be left standing not knowing what to do.Written October 22, 2024
- K4567WUellens0 contributionsTour was disappointingI did like seeing the caldera but I would have liked to have spent more time there, although advertised as a full day trip we were only given half an hour at the volcano and this included queuing for the toilets. The majority of the trip was dedicated to walking through the island, trying to sell stuff, bringing us to a specific taverna where they had an obvious partnership which could be better used to see the volcano instead. We ended up walking off on the tour and making our own way around which was much more enjoyableWritten October 19, 2024
- Garrie L0 contributionsGreat serviceWe used Lazaros of Kos Activities for our return to Kos Airport. He was prompt, friendly and had great communications. The van was a Mercedes sprinter minibus very well finished out inside and very comfortable. Would definitely recommend and will use again when we return to Kos.Written October 18, 2024
- Jak-jak19620 contributionsZia evening of sunset and foodAmazing night, mini bus pick from hotel, very helpful driver. An evening of good food and sunset. Arts and crafts shops. Wonderful evening . Very good value. Night to rememberWritten October 18, 2024
- vongais20240 contributionsGreat explorative excursionAmazing day with laughter. Was able to find and book an amazing diving excursion. Instructor confirmed booking within hours and was picked up from hotel on time. Would highly recommend it.Written October 17, 2024
- njddaly0 contributionsLate night transfer from Kos AirportVery efficient service. We arrived late at night, but everything went to plan. On time and helpful driver. Would highly recommend.Written October 16, 2024
- miiaw20160 contributionsGood tripEverything went very well and the driver was on schedule. Three hours in Zia was enough for dinner and exploring the town.Written October 14, 2024
- jess01380 contributionsBeautiful views with some flaws1st of all if you go here you do get some really terrific views of kos you're so high up. We did go for views mainly anyway but we arrived at about 3.50pm and didn't leave until 8.45pm. This is far too long as there's only really a church you can walk up to which unfortunately we didn't go up to as path was blocked by a swarm of hornets. There are only a few souvenir shops and some restaurants. We did go into the national park which was £5 pp but animals in way to small enclosures and took all of 10-15 minutes to get around but killed a bit of time. We went to a restaurant to eat there with beautiful views however I couldn't physically eat half of it as hornets were everywhere swarming over your food. I have a severe phobia and cried most of the hours I was there. If you have phobia of wasps/hornets etc I wouldn't go as they are everywhere. We ended up sitting on a bench for the last 2 hours because there was nothing to do as we had seen everything We did realise apparently once we were back we could have got a trip which was 6pm-9pm instead so opt for that one if you just want to mainly go for the views and dinner as not much else there at all. Wouldn't visit again but mainly due to the amount of hornets/wasps there and lack of things there.Written October 12, 2024
- Climber190454331100 contributionsGreat experience from Kos airportWas picked up by a polite and super professional driver. Name shown on his phone so was easy to spot him and he had tracked the flight so was aware of early arrival. Safe driving and arrived at the destination on time. Will definitely use this service again.Written October 11, 2024
- J4951JPleighd0 contributionsAmazingAbsolutely amazing well organised. I went on this tour by myself we had a lovely guide. Worth the trip and the price. Reasonably priced Highly recommendWritten October 11, 2024
- John v0 contributionsVulcano island tourBack to the Vulcano after 30 years. Nisyros is still an island to visit. Walking on a active Vulcano is still different. If you can handle the smell go and visit.Written October 11, 2024
- lisagI9450DO0 contributionsExcellentPicked up on time both ways. Lovely few hours out, definitely enough time. Approx 3 hours in Zia, enough time to get some food and have a wander. Advise to pre book meal as it gets busyWritten October 11, 2024

A very nice experience! The boat was quite big and there was enough space for everyone (we went on a Friday). There is a guy on the boat who sells cocktails and even animates you to drink, which was funny. Therefore it is rather not recommended for children and families. The lunch was great and the islands as well. It was a very nice experience!

An all round amazing experience! Boat was so so comfortable and it was so great that we kept the same seats the entire time to avoid confusion when getting off and back on. Lunch was good, basic but still decent however the restaurant setting we ate in was so gorgeous. Swimming in the sea was an unreal experience! We all loved it. Would not recommend this experience for kids though as it was a quite long day in the constant sun and we were all shattered after. The staff were so polite and respectful towards everyone on the boat. On the way back they even treated us to some dances including: YMCA, Macarena & a traditional Greek dance. It was so so much fun everyone was up dancing even through the near exhaustion. If you are in Kos you MUST go on this trip it truly is an unforgettable experience and I feel so lucky to have had it.

If you don’t want to be a part of a kind of Hollywood movie with childish Pirate experiences and loud music so you can’t communicate with family or friends, don’t hesitate to book the 3 island trip with the Princess Diana, Same money but far more professionalism. Very friendly crew and a ‘normal’ ship. One of the crew members even speaks Delphin, and by whistling at a certain manner he can call the Delphin and they mostly show up. 100% worth the money !!

We booked this trip through Trip Advisor having seen them go out of the harbour each day. Our confirmation said we would be on one of two boats Odyssey or Posideon. We were on Posideon which we expected as Odyssey was fully booked when we enquired.
Confirmation and departure instructions came via text and email. They were easy to follow and accurate. The boat left on time.
The downside was the boat was very overcrowded, there were no soft sun bed cushions as seen in photos on here, some people were standing as there were no seats left. The first part of the journey was rough and sailing into the wind. Take sea sickness tabs if you are at all queasy! We were worried that each stop off would be crowded as we’d noted 8-10 boats leaving the harbour each day but this was not the case. It was ok and the stops well organised although they weren’t very long. Lunch was about an hour in a Taverna which just about gave you enough time to order and eat but no time to explore really. Lunch was Sovalaki and salad, Spag Bol or a veggi option. We had the Sovalaki, one chicken one pork which was nice. Drinks were at an additional cost. Service was good if not a little rushed at the end as they had another boat arriving.
Stop no 2 was a swim stop again not enough time. We did see dolphins for a nano second before they dropped anchor further round the cove.
Stop three made the trip beautiful Sandy beach, clear calm sea, little shops, stalls and a Taverna & plenty of space on the beach. We stayed here nearly 2 hours before the 1 hour sail back.
On the plus side the boat was clean, all rubbish was collected and the crew was helpful, fun and friendly. This was not a booze cruise thank goodness! Drinks were available at your own cost. This was a family friendly trip. We would like to go again if we knew the boat would be less crowded. Maybe off season? Or a shared cruise on a smaller boat. Overall the trip did represent value for money if you don’t mind the crowd or standing?

Fabulous tour but not with this operator. Crammed on like sardines. Literally sat touching the next person on either side of us with not an inch to move. Given a 1 hour stop for a pre ordered lunch. Took 15 minutes for everyone to disembark, get our own drinks from the restaurant fridge, then queue to pay a man standing at a table, return to our table waiting for staff to collect the token given us for food before we could get a meal. Chips cold and limp, undercooked chicken soulvaki and a gesture of salad. If it had been edible, there wasn't enough time to eat, before walking the 5 minutes back to the boat. Lots of other boats moored on the bay but none as cramped as this. Scenery beautiful. Cheaply priced for a reason

Cheaper online than the hotel guides (€140 for 2 adults and 1 child without lunch).
The tour guide was friendly.
The first island beautiful. Time a little tight.
On board they said everyone should pay 10€ for a lunch at 11:40 in a restaurant. which is very delicious and there are 5 different dishes to choose from. Which I found very intrusive. We said we’d rather decide for ourselves on the spot what we eat (in good places pizza from 6€ and salad from 9€) so 10€ is now also sweet Ultra Bargains. Besides, I like to see what there is to eat: the end of the song was that he had to give everyone the money back because there was some problem with the restaurant.
The town was beautiful and you would have needed more time (at 1 pm the boat went on to Plati). There was a small stop (10min as we were apparently behind schedule ) quite nice but just to jump into the water the stop was not necessary or worth seeing in my opinion. It was a nice spot but really enjoying in 10 min that is not possible. Then we went to the last island there was nothing to see (3-4 intrusive souvenir shops) and a beach for bathing. Here there were also some real local restaurants we heard that we had already eaten on the first island. On the third island you could not really look at anything .. there is only one “road” which is the beach so the 1.5 hrs were ias rather boring.
We would rather take the ferry 8€ from Mastichari - Kalimnos . This is worth seeing and you can divide yourself the time :) and also cheaper .
So yes on the return trip the machine that pulls the anchor up broke down: the men then did it iwie manually. Very dangerous and we had a 45 min delay.
Operator was: Python Tours.

3 of us booked the Kalamynos and Pserimos day trip on Poseidon and we all give it 5 stars. We got a transfer in the morning from our hotel which was nice and easy. The boat wasn’t crowded and every one had a lot of space. When we set sail it was very relaxed with good music on board too so you can sunbathe and enjoy the views. The staff are lovely and friendly - they also make great cocktails. We stopped at Kalamynos first and had lunch in a little hotel which was really nice. Afterwards we went a little wander around as we had a good amount of time before we had to be back onboard. The crew then took us to a little spot near an island that we could jump into the sea and swim. This was an amazing first time experience and I would highly recommend it! We then headed to Pserimos which has the most beautiful beach. We were just sad that we couldn’t spend more time there as it is so relaxing, with stunning clear waters and you can literally swim with the fish😅 We then headed back to Kos and topped up our tans and drinks😊 All in all, a great day out, great value for money and I’m so glad we booked it with the Poseidon team!

Chose this trip as it offered optional pick up.
I was very pleased with the pickup. Driver was punctual, friendly and drove a very nice car. When we returned from the trip he was punctual in picking us up and returning to hotel.
The trip itself was good value, we had two opportunities for swimming and saw dolphins. It was enjoyable being at sea and having a cooling sea breeze.
The drinks on board were very reasonable as were the ice creams and snacks.
To be honest, there isn't really a lot to see and do at the stops, but it was an enjoyable day. At the beach stop the water was crystal clear and was lovely to swim in.
"Ariel" and the rest of the crew played party music and encouraged people to sing and dance, then there was the greek dancing.
It would perhaps have been nice to hear a bit more about the islands we stopped at.

The cruise was great, had a fantastic day. Plenty of time on all the island apart from Platy which I was most looking forward to, we only had 30 minutes as the captain was sailing round looking for dolphins we never saw so wasted time doing that which I was annoyed about but otherwise a great trip. For the price it was well worth it but I’d recommend booking direct as the hotel charge ad additional 50% which we didn’t realise until it was too late. But yeah even the €45 we paid was worth it so I recommend it

Very adventurous and fun boat trip (it was very windy so better take travel tablets if you are seasick). Nice boat and not too crowded. The crew was entertaining with appropriate drink prices. Music was 80s / 90s mixed. Food was included in a small restaurant in Kalymnos but we wished we had more there.
