During our recent (September, 2024) 16-day tour of Turkey, we realized we were to have a free day in Bodrum for which we had nothing planned. On the Viator website we found the "Bodrum Boat Trip with Lunch 11:00 to 17:00" and booked it. The confirmation email with trip information and vouchers came back very quickly.
On the morning of the trip, one of the boat crew, Ihan, met us at Onelli Travels where we had exchanged our vouchers for our tickets and guided us through the pier to our boat.
The boat was well set up with seating and tables on the lower level and surprisingly comfortable bean bags on the upper.
Ihan continued to be attentive and personable The furnished grill chicken, pasta, and salad lunch was very good and the beer was inexpensive and cold.
The three swimming stops were in picturesque locations, were each a good length of time, and offered "noodles" and small life vests for those who needed them.
My wife and I have done many day boat trips off of Santorini, and we were very impressed overall with how well-organized and considerate this trip was. Ihan actually asked about the volume of the music and turned it down when requested.
Not only was the trip completely delightful, but the price was only a fraction of what we've paid for similar trips.
