Marmaris Pirate Boat Incl. Lunch, unlimited Drinks with Transfer

If a UK council estate was a boat trip..

Not suitable for children or young families. The worst boat trip I've ever been on, it may very well be what a lot of people would consider a good time and that's absolutely fine but wildly inappropriate for small children. We were picked up promptly from our hotel and taken to Marmaris Marina where we were shown to our boat "Davey Jones". We boarded and waited to cast off, already it looked like a few people were still out from the night before, I thought this is not really what I was expecting. Everybody seemed to be chain smoking and vaping, I think we may have been the only group on board that weren't. As soon as we were underway music started blasting over the PA at excessive volume. We couldn't even talk to each other, I couldn't hear a word my children were saying. At one point the staff were getting everyone up to dance and spraying everyone with a hosepipe, even those that clearly weren't interested were getting hosed, all our towels and back packs with phones, books,dry clothes got soaked. There was one little boy about 4 years crying and hiding under a towel and it just went on. The scenery was stunning and Turunc was a lovely place, although we only had 1 hour and 20 minutes there, not the 2 hours advertised. To be fair the staff were friendly and a good laugh, the food was ok even though chips cost extra! After Turunc we decided to sit downstairs to get away for the loud music and excessive chain smoking but people were smoking down there too, one woman sat right next to the "no smoking" sign, I mentioned it to a member of staff and he said "It is not problem", I tried explaining that it was a problem but he wasn't interested. I could go on but overall a pretty bad experience, there just doesn't seem to be any common sense here, I don't understand why they don't operate tours for people who want this and another for families and people who want to enjoy the scenery in peace. It's a disaster waiting to happen. I would strongly advise against booking this if you have children. If you want to get smashed and party all day then go for it.

Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re sorry the boat trip was not suitable for your family. We understand your concerns about the loud music, smoking, unwanted water spraying and shortened stop in Turunc. While we’re glad you enjoyed the scenery and friendly staff, we regret the discomfort caused and will share your concerns with the boat operator. Kind regards 🧿

Fun day out, but food and all inclusive drinks average

We had a really fun day out on the Davy Jones 2 pirate ship, we had 2 swim stops, visit to the caves and visit to Turunc where there are bargains to be had. The reason for the three stars is that the all inclusive package basically consisted of watered down draft Tuborg and spirits. There were premium spirits and bottled beer available in a fridge but this was extra. The barman never had a fag out of his hand, even when pouring drinks which I found quite off putting (I'm a non smoker so maybe that might not bother others) Our lunch consisted of a piece of barbecued chicken breast, spaghetti and a tiny bit of salad, there were fries but they too were extra and you got about 10 fries on a small plate. Not really "all inclusive" anything decent had to be paid for. The foam party and dancing made it fun overall

Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry you had such an experience and we could not meet your 5-star mark. Next time we will do our best to make you happy by improving our services even more.

I think the saying goes.It's a pirate life for me & It definitely was

The overall excursion was satisfactory, with the exception of some initial confusion regarding boat assignments. Upon boarding, we discovered that all the sun loungers were occupied, making it challenging to secure a seat. Despite this minor inconvenience, the actual trip proved to be quite enjoyable. The crew demonstrated great enthusiasm and entertainment skills, and even the cameraman was exceptionally helpful. The food was of high quality, served promptly and at an appropriate temperature, surpassing the standards of many restaurants. The music selection was excellent and encouraged participation from all attendees. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that everyone had a memorable experience, with a few individuals standing out for their exceptional service. The locations we visited were visually stunning, and the water was crystal clear, providing an excellent opportunity for swimming. However, for individuals with limited mobility, re-boarding the boat presented some challenges due to the round and small rungs on the ladder, making it difficult to maintain balance. Steps would have greatly facilitated this process. Additionally, general movement around the boat was effortless. In conclusion, we thoroughly enjoyed the excursion. I would advise taking this trip for anyone here

Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking your time to give us your pleasant feedback. Hope to see you again in the near future. Warm Regards ; Tourmania Team

Davy Jones ship experience...worth it even just for the scenery

The good Davy Jones ship out of all the ships. Lots of fun, food and music. Extremely welcoming staff and very involved, happy and helpful. Especially the pirate I forgot his name. He was amazing. Joined in with all the fun. Checked if everyone was ok. Fun for families but lots of alcohol and drunk Brits. Foam party and decent food with unlimited soft drinks. Stopped off multiple times to swim, life vests provided for those who want. Stopped off in turunc for a little shopping and then headed back.
