Samos Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

Very short time at the actual site, we wasted time at shp which boxed in the buying g as turns out e pensive products. Would preferred my time at site versus the store.

Faboulous boattrip to Kassonisi and Posedonion . Very nice staff 💥

Excellent trip from Samos we really enjoyed and our guide was knowledgeable and told us everything we needed to know. I definitely recommend this trip.

Fantastic day, great food and great hosts. Alyssa and Maria and their crew were so kind and such good company. Highly recommend 😊😊

Flexible guide. Expirince that I realy recomend

Great beaches, excellent food. A lot of terrain to hike so wear water shoes. The crew was professional and fun!

A really nice boat trip. Captain Andreas and his crew did everything for everyone got a good experience. Everything on the website will live up to your expectations.

Great experience, everyone must go. The weather we found was great so we stood lucky. We will go again if we visit the island

Excellent experience as a Christian to see the place where John had his vision. The hiking trail to it is also beautiful with beautiful views over the chora of Patmos

Our guide - Vera (I hope I did not misspell her name) made it ! Her presentations, in both the museum of the monastery and in the cave were a mix of a professor of history and religion, a philosopher and an actress! At least for me, she was the best guide I ever had (and I am a senior and professor at a university). Congratulations!

A boat tour in bright sunshine on the lake is simply something special. The entire tour was excellently organized. On the boat, one should pay attention to where one sits to avoid constantly having exhaust fumes in one's nose.The attentiveness of the crew stood out positively. One was constantly offered drinks, small refreshments, or snacks – truly great service.The excursion destination was simply amazing. The small island where we held our barbecue at the end was dreamy. The only small downside was the many hornets on site, for which of course no one was to blame. But even for that, the owner had prepared and placed incense bowls on the tables.The barbecue itself was perfect: plenty of food, a large selection, and everything was very delicious. Together with the beautiful backdrop on the small island, it was an all-around successful experience.I would do this tour again anytime and can wholeheartedly recommend it. Thumbs up! 👍😊

Very pleasant experience, comfortable and everything a bit, beach paradise on the island, relax on the next plsyas with sun loungers and food and jump from the boat who wants to swim in deep water

Guide prepared and welcoming Very interesting place Would recommend it.Many things I didn't know and also new

Despite all the fears that there might be organisational difficulties, everything went well. We took the ferry *Efesus Express". The journey to Kusadasi took two hours as indicated. Our tour was conducted by Okeanos travel and we loved it. Ihsan, who speaks fluent English, Turkish and Greek, did a very good job and was very nice to us. He introduced Kusadasi and Ephesus with a lot of knowledge, humor and enthusiasm. The entire tour was in English as stated. The ancient city of Ephesus was very impressive. You felt like you were diving into antiquity. Every item there has a little story to tell. My girlfriend and I really enjoyed it. My tip: Be sure to take enough water with you! And sturdy footwear must not be missing. The paths in Ephesus, which are partly made of marble, are very slippery. All in all, it was a very nice trip that was worth its time and money!

We went with the Captain Andreas boat from Pythagorio harbor to Kasonisi Island. The trip there took about an hour and we were treated with ouzo, orange juice, white wine and small sandwiches during the time on the boat. There was also possibility to buy beer and wine on the boat. First we stopped in the narrow strait between Kasonisi and Samos. The water was crystal blue and we could jump and dive into it from the boat. A lot of fun! 🤩 There was also the possibility to climb via ladder into the water. Then we went to the small beach and town of Poseidonio. Where we stopped for a couple of hours for sun bathing, swimming and lunch at the Taverna. Very beautiful small beach with crystal clear water, quite nice for snorkeling too. After that the boat went back towards Pythagorio, but this time more slowly and closer to the coast line. Very calming and lots of nice scenery and happy waving people along the way. Only drawback we can think was that the volume of the music on the boat was a bit high. Especially when sitting close to a loudspeaker.

Simply amazing experience being inside the cave where St John wrote the Book of Revelation, seeing the place where he lived till he died and the rock standing 'desk' where said the vision to his disciple (scribe). Make sure you carry cash because tickets to the cave nor the monastery are included in the tour tickets which is disappointing as we were led to believe when ordering the tour.
