A lovely trip! - Myself and some friends used Half price tours for a day trip to Symi Island. Would highly recommend, the staff were lovely and polite. The boat trip was very fast and comfortable. Would recommend getting their transfer to drop you off to the harbour as this was a very nice experience and stress-free!

Symi day trip - Absolutely excellent service from start to finish. After I made my booking, I was contacted immediately to say it had been received. Actually was remembered from last year!!! You receive a Message the night before to remind you, next day our driver to pick us up at hotel was on time. Smooth journey to office to pay then transferred round to ferry. Symi is just beautiful and well worth a visit. It’s actually breathtaking it’s so pretty. Return journey back was brilliant too. All staff are polite and extremely helpful. Excellent customer service from all throughout our day. Thank you, hopefully see you again soon 😍

Smooth service, wonderful trip - We had a great trip to Symi. The service was smooth, no issues at all. Did take some travel tablets but didn't feel sick as the motion wasn't too bad. Views were great. Inside was air conditioned and quieter, which I loved. Well worth a visit to this beautiful island, would love to go again and based on this experience I would use half price tours again for sure. Also very good price for the trip. Thanks and see you again!

Professional service and a lovely island - Efficient from start to finish, "Half Price Tours" had my physical tickets ready, the friendly gentleman at the desk explained where the pickup point was clearly and with very good English. The boat ride both to and from Symi was great, thr boat was clean, had air-conditioning inside and had seating both indoors and outside. The crew were very professional. The island itself was lovely, I enjoyed walking around and relaxing at a café enjoying lunch, soaking in the surroundings. 10/10
