The roughly nine-hour outing includes the boat, an onboard restroom, and optional hotel pickup for an extra fee. Bring lunch money, a towel, warm layers, and motion-sickness tablets if needed.

“the experience as a whole is great, and symi and st george’s bay are beautiful. it takes around 2 hours to get to st george’s bay, and an hour of swimming when you get there which is a good amount of time. bring your own snorkel if you want to swim with one, as they only have woggles to give out. it is then around 30 minutes to get to symi town, which is stunning. 3 hours is enough time to have lunch and view most of the main street and little shops. it is then 2 hours back to rhodes. the only small issue i found was that after…”
