Fantastic Sunset Cruise on Gin Tonic – Highly Recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This was our fourth time using Georgios, and once again he didn’t disappoint! We booked a 4-hour sunset cruise on the beautiful Gin Tonic yacht in Lindos for four of us, including drinks and food on board. One of the things we really appreciate about dealing directly with Georgios is his flexibility and understanding. On this occasion, four other friends who were originally planning to join us unfortunately couldn’t make it. Georgios was incredibly accommodating and made changing the arrangements completely stress-free. Nothing was too much trouble. The cruise itself was excellent. We had a fantastic sail around the beautiful local bays, with plenty of time to relax and enjoy the scenery. The swimming stop was perfect, giving us the chance to jump into the crystal-clear water and cool off After four trips with Georgios, we can honestly say that the consistently high level of service, his friendly approach and his willingness to accommodate changes are what keep bringing us back. If you’re staying in Lindos and looking for a relaxing, enjoyable and personal sailing experience, we would highly recommend Georgios and Gin Tonic. We’ll definitely be back for our fifth trip! 🌅⛵️🍾
Response from the operator: Thank you so much Ian. That's so wonderful to read. I am surprised though you haven't booked your 5th time already hahaha. It's always great to see you and the gang Ian. Look forward to catching up with you later in the week.

A fantastic day onboard GinTonic
What a great day we all had, onboard the GinTonic with Georgios. Private sailing for just our family, brilliant swim stops and caves, taking the wheel, absolutely incredible food, the drinks flowed and the weather was perfect. Georgios is a fantastic captain and host, and even let us extend by another hour as we were enjoying ourselves so much and we could easily have stayed longer! Would highly recommend, and we will sail with Georgios on the GinTonic again soon.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much Paul for your fantastic feedback! Feel free to take advantage of our 10:00-19:00 morning to sunset option for your next trip. Look forward to welcoming you and your family again soon!

Very highly recommended
Fantastic afternoon out on the waves, drinks flowing freely and the bbq food was superb, Captain Gin is such a good fella with a great sense of humour and a really good host, just a shame he’s supports Fulham 😂. We booked directly on Pallas beach and will be definitely booking next year when we’re back
Response from the operator: Fulham lol. Are you sure we were on the same boat Phil? Good banter as always! It was great to see you all again!

Fantastic experience on the Gin & Tonic
Absolutely amazing experience on the Gin & Tonic with the best host Captain Gin. We booked for a group of 6 with bbq and drinks. The food was excellent, plenty of gluten free options too, and the drinks were flowing. We saw some beautiful sites and stopped off for some snorkelling even managed to see a turtle. Would 100% recommend going on the Gin & Tonic especially for the sunset cruise. Best day out with a fantastic host who really looked after us. Superb!!!
Response from the operator: Thank you kindly Karen. The BBQ is a great add on and I am glad you enjoyed it. Will hopefully see you in the future again!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Full/Half-Day Boat Trip in Greece with Food and Drinks: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rhodes.
How much does Private Full/Half-Day Boat Trip in Greece with Food and Drinks cost?
+
Prices start at $601 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rhodes usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Full/Half-Day Boat Trip in Greece with Food and Drinks take?
+
Plan for about 5.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rhodes is not rushed.
Is Private Full/Half-Day Boat Trip in Greece with Food and Drinks worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 40 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rhodes, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Full/Half-Day Boat Trip in Greece with Food and Drinks?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Full/Half-Day Boat Trip in Greece with Food and Drinks suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Full/Half-Day Boat Trip in Greece with Food and Drinks?
+
Around 14 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rhodes can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rhodes and add a light layer if any part of the 5.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Full/Half-Day Boat Trip in Greece with Food and Drinks start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rhodes within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rhodes?
+
On Outty we rank every Rhodes experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Makarounas Fishing Boat Trip with swimming stop and BBQ on board, Athens cruise: Agistri, Moni/Metopi, Aegina with lunch & drinks, Rhodes Sea Kayaking Tour – The Pirates Route. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rhodes?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rhodes?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Private Full/Half-Day Boat Trip in Greece with Food and Drinks?

Not included: Gratuities (min 5% of booking value); Birthday cake (basic 25€/kg, premium 40€/kg); Use of Stand Up Paddle board (20€/30min); and Fishing rod (20€/rod for the day) Bait will be provided. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Private Full/Half-Day Boat Trip in Greece with Food and Drinks?
+
From Lindos main square head to Pallas beach and find us at the big jetty. From Palestra or Dolphins restaurants in Lindos, walk along the beach and find us at the big jetty near Pallas beach. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
