1.Yacht Cruise to Rhenia and Guided Tour of Delos

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 802 reviews · 1 day · from $141Number one

Spend a full day sailing from Mykonos to Delos and Rhenia with Sunfos Alessia Yachting. A licensed guide, including guides such as Helen or Alexis on some departures, leads the Delos visit, while the crew serves pasta, Greek salad, fruit, wine, and soft drinks. Expect swimming, snorkeling, sun, and a potentially windy ride.

“We had such a great day! The boat was so nice and a very small group so we all got our own space to sunbathe or relax. The guide for Delos was very informative however it was very hot so make sure you bring something to cover up as it’s around 1 hr 30. Make sure to bring treats for the cats too, there are plenty there! :) Food was delicious which we had after our swim spot, keep your swimwear on as the journey back you can get a little wet. Highly recommend!”

2.Symi Yacht Tour with Unlimited Drinks and Transfer

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 380 reviews · 8 hours · from $141

Spend eight hours sailing from Rhodes to Symi on a yacht limited to 25 passengers. You get coffee or tea at check-in, about two hours in Symi Town, lunch with unlimited drinks at St. George Bay, and a second swim at Seskli Island. The friendly crew, including hosts such as Anna, Antonio, and Emily, help make this a relaxed day at sea.

“This was a really good excursion and the crew were great. There weren’t many of us on the boat so we got to experience all areas and were not cramped at all. The swimming stops were the best but Symi was also nice (although there was not much to do on the island so maybe bring some card games). Would also recommend bringing a speaker as there was no music provided.”

The guide was knowledgeable and helpful and couldn’t do enough to make sure we had a good trip. Lunch was lovely and unexpected - described as snacks but was actually a platter of crisps with sandwiches and vegetable skewers - presented beautifully! We all had a lovely time and would thoroughly recommend it.”
