    We made the best of an awful trip

    We boarded Harmonia in Rhodes New Marina on a very unsteady 2 planks that rested on a wooden pallet and we had to climb over a rail. That was just the start. We had no communication from the captain following a message we had all received that the itinerary was likely to change due to weather conditions. The captain didn’t join us for the welcome dinner but spoke to us briefly after the meal. He said we would just have to wait and see what would happen with the weather and we should stay positive. He was quick to take our €150 each for port fees for which we received no receipt. The cabin was much smaller than I expected. I was supposed to sleep on the top bunk, with my friend in the double bed below. There was no way I could get up there, so we used the bunk for our luggage and had to share the double bed. We sailed to Symi the following day and did have swim stops on the way. I cut and badly bruised my legs on the poorly designed steps into the water. I wasn’t the only one. The snorkelling equipment was dirty and very mismatched and old. I didn’t bother using it. We stopped in 3 ports on Symi but were told on Tuesday that we couldn’t go to the other islands due to the weather. We went back to Rhodes early Wednesday morning. We were moored for three nights next to a building site. The company did arrange coach trips to different towns around Rhodes on the following two days but this wasn’t what we expected. Obviously the company are not accountable for the weather but gave us such bad communication throughout. My friend and I had paid £150 for nighttime air conditioning in our cabin. When we were stuck in Rhodes for 3 nights, the other guests asked for air conditioning in their cabins as a goodwill gesture, which was given. When I asked for a refund for our payment, we were first offered 2 free drinks each. When I refused that we were offered a free transfer to the airport. We received this offer when we were already at the airport and we had already paid in advance for our transfers. I have to mention that the three crew members and especially Farris were very friendly and helpful at all times. The food was very good. However I would never use Sail In Greece again.

    Bad experience

    Having recently returned from a sailing holiday on the Harmonia with Sail with Greece, unfortunately, due to a combination of bad weather, bad communication and organising from the company and a very unfriendly captain, the trip turned out to be a bit of a distater. On the afternoon of Saturday 12th September 2026, we were informed by their Customer Support team that we would be unable to sail as planned on the morning of Sunday 13th Sept due to adverse weather conditions. As you can imagine we were disappointed to hear this news but continued to board the boat on the Saturday as instructed. We were told by the captain at this point that in fact it would probably be Tuesday or Wednesday before we would sail as the weather conditions at sea were not good for several days. At this point, we were asked by the captain to hand over the 300 euros port fees by the captain. We paid extra monies when booking our holiday for a standard plus cabin which we were told were the bigger cabins on the boat. This was not true as in fact we had one of the smallest cabins (Cabin 3). If the captain knew we were not going anywhere until the Tuesday/Wednesday, why did the company still put us on the boat? We would have been better off kept in a hotel. The boat was moored next to an area that had a lot of building work going on, which was noisy, dusty, and not great to look at! The captain of the boat had no people skills! He was abrupt, grumpy and had very little interaction with us for the entire holiday. He didn’t join us for the Captain’s dinner except for a photo and did not even come on deck to say goodbye as we left the boat on the Saturday morning. The rest of the crew were very friendly, especially Farris. Why did we still have to pay 300 euros port fees when we only had a 3 day cruise. The captain couldn’t collect these quick enough! The swim stops on the 3 day cruise were terrible. We were too far away from shore, the sea was choppy, the stairs leading into the water were not suitable for most of the guests onboard, and the snorkelling equipment provided had not been cleaned in weeks! All in all, the entire experience was very disappointing and although there is absolutely nothing that can be done in regard to the weather conditions, I feel that the company should have pre-empted and had a contingency plan for such occurrences. Communication and lack of organisation from the company was evident.

    Perfect for water lovers

    What a wonderful time! This cruise allows you to visit different islands near Rhodes, swim, and enjoy the sea. It’s perfect if you thrive in water and don’t need to stay in one place for multiple days. We saw beautiful towns and bays. They serve a simple yet filling breakfast and a delicious lunch each day, made by the chef on board. Lunch was always amazing with so many options. Each night you are free to explore the port and get dinner at a taverna of your choice. The crew was so friendly and accommodating. Thank you for a lovely time.

    Endless swimming & relaxation 🌊🌞

    We had a great week on the Harmonia exploring the Dodecanese islands. We enjoyed hours of swimming in crystal blue waters, and exploring beautiful quiet port towns at night. The crew is wonderful - the chef makes delicious lunches for the group every day, and the steward and boat engineer are also so kind and available. They really make it a great experience. We will definitely be back!

    Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rhodes.

    How much does Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,452 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 Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience take?

    +

    Plan for about 192 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 Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Rhodes, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 192-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience?

    +

    Around 5 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 192-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience 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 Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience?

    +

    Included: Lunch; Use of snorkeling equipment; Dinner; Breakfast; and Daily Fuel Consumption: Coverage for up to 4 hours of cruising per day. Not included: Drinks; Travel Insurance; Private transportation; and Activities/Excursions - Optional. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience?

    +

    We will be docked close to the Naval Cafe Bar Restaurant. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

    What do travelers say about Rhodes Island Hopping Cruise 8-Day Experience?

    +

    Across 14 reviews averaging 4.3 out of 5, recurring themes include food and drink, photo opportunities. The tastings and food stops are a highlight for most reviewers. One thing to know: Expect real walking or climbing: reviewers mention the effort involved.
