Magical Sunset Trip - We had an absolutely amazing time! The crew was exceptionally kind and friendly, making the whole experience unforgettable — even our 5-year-old had a fantastic time. Everything was perfectly organized, the team was very friendly, and the whole trip ran smoothly from start to finish. We took part in the sunset trip, and I can 100% recommend this for everyvone.

Highlight of our vacation! - We went on two unforgettable trips with Safetours – and both were absolutely amazing! The first tour took us along the coast with two stops for swimming in crystal-clear water, and the second one to Dia Island at sunset – a magical experience! The crew was incredibly friendly and attentive. There were always delicious snacks like fresh fruit and nibbles available, as well as a wide selection of drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. The boat itself is new, very clean, and offers a great atmosphere to relax and enjoy. We also had the chance to use paddleboards, snorkel masks, pool noodles, and floating mats free of charge. We enjoyed every minute and can wholeheartedly recommend Safetours. Each trip was special in its own way – truly a highlight of our vacation!

recommended tour - A wonderful tour with a beautiful sunset and crystal-clear water. The atmosphere was amazing, and the staff were incredibly friendly and funny. Swimming and snorkeling in the sea was definitely a highlight! The team also took some stunning photos of us, which they later sent to us, such a great touch!
