    Travelled with a group of friends

    We would have liked more information about outward journey - assumed pick-up by coach so surprised (but very happy) to be taken to the port by cab. We were dropped at unoccupied port passport control building and left waiting for an hour - unfortunately in the open in pouring rain - for it to open with no idea how to obtain our ferry tickets. However, once boarded we had a great experience and our guide was incredibly knowledgeable - very genial too and he communicated well.

    Travelled with family

    Guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Walk through Ephesus seemed a bit rushed. Temple of Artemis was disappointing, nothing really to see.

    Ephesus was spectacular. We would have liked more time there and less time in Kusadasi. Our guide was excellent. The stop at the factory shoo was just annoying! Overall we had a great trip

    Ephesus was an amazing experience with a very knowledgeable guide. The bust to the jewellery factory was dull and we felt pressured by the staff and couldn’t wait to get out. After two hours in the hot sun it would have been better to go straight to lunch. There could then have been more free time in the port area.

Excursions & day trips

Samiopoula Trip

Holidays are about getting away from it all. And this morning cruise does just that. Cooling off in the waters of Samos's south coast, you'll also visit the remote island of Samiopoula – an isolated island with no inhabitants.Sailing out of Pythagorios' pretty port, you'll know you're on holiday when you feel the sun on your face and a warm sea breeze wash over you. Gliding through the Ireon village, you'll pass secluded beaches and rocky coves. Whilst being served fresh fruit and refreshments by the crew, you may even be lucky enough to spot a dolphin or two.Then, you'll relax and top up your tan until it's time to swim ashore at Samipoula. Spend time here exploring the island's unspoiled landscape, its lone church, or enjoying a dip in the Aegean. The water here is calm and clear, so expect to see plenty of fish. And cruising back to shore at a leisurely pace, you'll have time to catch a few more rays on deck.
