Nice trip and lovely service. At the boat things was great and staffs takes care about us very well. If u want see the view, choose places at upstairs so you can see the ocean very well!
Quite a cool trip.. -1 star due to the long waiting times upon arrival at the respective ports. The authorities in Turkey and on Kos take quite a long time. When you have to wait in the sun for 1 hour with kids, it’s not that much fun. Otherwise, 5 hours are enough to explore the harbor, the market stalls in the alleys, and enjoy a delicious meal with a view of the sea. The castle itself at the harbor can be explored for about €25. We did not do that because it was too warm. The boat trip is very well organized. You receive information via WhatsApp or email about where to check in and have a contact person. Those who arrive first get the best seats on the Boat. Cool drinks for the trip can be purchased on the ship.
There are X4 sets of queues, leaving and entering each country, but waits not too bad 20mins maximum in June. We had a walk to the Mausoleum ruins, very reasonably priced. We went on a Tuesday and so also able to visit the bazaar market which is close to the port
A short boattrip of about half an hour and we were in the port of Bodrum. The boat journey was very pleasant.
Absolutely terrible experience cancelled day before trip requested refund sent to the wrong account and adviser unhelpful and difficult when this was pointed out please avoid TUI if you don’t want disappointment.

My wife and I took this trip from Kos to bodrum and is was a very good day out it’s like 2 holidays in one would recommend for couples and family’s.
Had a nice day with Moto Harley! We drove in a group with quads and jeeps, front and back guidance. Lots of off road driving and beautiful viewpoints visited. The guide also gave us all kinds of info about the area during the stops. The day ended with a nice pita gyros. I liked being able to see the diversity of Kos and our 7-year-old son enjoyed the off road adventure.
Nice city, bustling, lots to see and lots to eat. I think Kos city is actually an open-air museum, very nice to see remnants of the past everywhere. Visit the castle and the old town, definitely worth it.
Great trip and a nice experience to go and see Turkey and the Markets. We travelled with our 3 kids (6, 10 & 13). We pre booked a taxi to Kos port but the driver refused to take us near where the boat was leaving from as it was rush hour so we had to walk (about 15mins or so). So if booking a taxi, be specific about where you need to be and not just the port. A little bit of waiting around at either side but I’d say it wasn’t a big deal. Great to experience the Markets where you can haggle with the sellers and get a good deal. Lots to offer, Clothes, trainers, food etc. We got lunch from a Turkish Kebab Restaurant near the bus station. The food was great and very reasonably priced. All in all, a great day for the price.
Super. Nicely arranged. Just looking for a place to leave was a thing. But left neatly on time and also back on time. Totally fine
