Enjoy the fastest, most comfortable Boat trip and reach the colorful island of Symi with the historic Panormitis Monastery in just 60 minutes. Experience the archeological history and sites of the island, the long-kept sponge diving tradition, original Greek culture, Neoclassical architecture and Symi’s crystal clear waters that invite everyone for a cooling dip.
4 hr - Homer first mentions the name Symi and the mythical king Nereus in his Iliad, in the list that includes those who participated in the Trojan War.The beautiful island of Symi, also the mythological birthplace of the Three Graces, is a small island in the Dodecanese that maintains its authentic traditional character almost intact. Symi retained the neoclassical style of its architecture, as it was relatively early proclaimed – in 1971 – as a historic settlement listed as a National Monument. That makes the island, unique in the Aegean. The charming Gialos is full of colourful mansions built almost on top of the other, with endless steps, hidden corners and incredible views that will enchant you. Its neoclassical style beauty makes Symi postcard-perfect and strolling down its promenade is a pure delight.
1 hr 15 min - Monastery of Panormitis in the bay of Panormos, famous for its miracles, that constitutes one of the most known pilgrimages in the Aegean as well in Greece., The imposing monastery built in the 18th century with its impressive bell tower is dedicated to the island’s patron saint, none other than the archangel Michael.

Symi island was beautiful and our tour guide Violeta was great . We will make a trip with them in the future.
The catamaran was lovely with great services and staff. We both enjoyed everything that it had to offer. Big thank you to Violeta for making our experience better and making us feel welcomed. We will definitely come back next year for another great trip.
The boat was fast, we enjoyed everything and the experience was made better thanks to Violeta, we will definitely visit again.
Keeping clear of the organised groups who were on the trip from various resorts/hotels was how we made the most of our Symi visit….. getting off the main routes and enjoying the local scene and local tavernas. It proved that, as is so often the case, some pre-visit research is invaluable.
The journey was one hour twenty on the way there and one hour thirty on the way back. You get about two and a half hours only which leaves you to just walk around the village which is geared just for tourists and restaurants only
