Cruise in 7 islands

Last August we had a day cruise with our friends. We took the car and drived to nidri town 20 minutes from lefkada town . We started our cruise 9.50 and returned back in the afternoon. The ship was big enough and overcrowded.it was a nice budget experience between lefkada island kefalonia and other nice places for swimming.

Trip was promised to have few stops around ionian islands, kephalonia etc and it did. Enought time to visit them all. Crew were nice and atmosphere ok aswell. Boat wasnt overcrowded only like 50ppl. Music was terrible and too loud. We didnt eat the 5€ food but did lunch in kephalonia wich was nice. I guess most of the trips you take from Nidri harbour are all the same, just different music, route is same for every boat.

What a quip ! What a shame ! Let's take it one by one : 1. Boat is overcrowded and no comfort at all 2.Captain & crew are very rude 3.Whole trip is bad & bitter joke - 7 islands in around 7 hours- seemed for us like 7 centuries due to awful conditions on the boat 4. In the same time @ every island there are also other boats , hundreds of people... see point5. 5.No time for swim, sightseeing and so crowded- closing the loop @ point 1 This cruise is a disgrace ! I would not recommend this cruise even to my fiercest enemies .

The food is poor only 4 nuggets and some salad that's all 😳. We're we stop we didn't have time to swim even if they said 30min, time to get off and make some photo.

We booked on the Tuesday for the Wednesday tour of 2 beaches, keflonia and a cave, €20pp. The boat collected us from Vassiliki, it had come from Nidri so already had passengers on board, having read the reviews I feared the worst, but it wasn't that bad. Yes the crew were keen to get us back on the boat at each stop, and yes it would have been nice to have the allocated time at each stop, but, everyone had a seat and we didn't leave anyone behind! We didn't buy any food on the boat so I can't comment on its quality, they did have a happy hour which was a 20% discount making a bottle of corona €5 though. As promised when I booked they don't blast pop music, however I did have to ask the captain early on to turn it down slightly as you couldn't hold a conversation, which he did without an issue.

Nothing is as presented in the pictures!! They are squashing 3-4 hundred people on a boat and rush them around a few islands, their only intention being to keep you on the boat long enough to sell you their overpriced and horrible food/water/oily pastries, etc. Horrible experience! Pitty nobody reads reviews here before going in trips with these robbers and liars. They would say anything to see you paying for that ticket. Worse 40 eur spent in my life! I felt better when I paid a parking fine I got in Nidri (also 40 eur) honestly. :))

About Lefkada boat trips in 2024

You can buy the tickets for Lefkada boat trips in local tourist offices, travel agencies, kiosks, by tour guides of travel companies, and directly from the boat’s staff at nights in the port. The schedules and timings change sometimes, because the actual weather conditions have a great influence.

If you are lucky, you can see dolphins while you sail on the Ionian Sea, they usually appear near Lefkada and follow the boats.

Discover the most beautiful islands near Lefkada: you can sail around 7 interesting islands of the Ionian Sea , such as the charming Meganisi , Madouri, Skorpios, Skorpidi, Sparti, Kefalonia and Ithaca on a one day roundtrip. By visiting some larger islands the excursion boats dock for a few hours to eat a delicious meal or a short walk. The places where boats stop for a while you can see in the actual schedules, because these stops always depend on the boats. The villages where most of these island cruises spend a few hours, are usually the beautiful Fiskardo in Kefalonia (Cephalonia), and Frikes or Kioni in Ithaca.

There are some excursion boats, which take first a short visit at the famous beaches (usually Porto Katsiki beach, Egremni beach or Agiofili beach ) before sailing to the picturesque nearby islands. During these cruises the boats sail next to the famous sea cave of Meganisi, the amazing Papanikolis cave!

The largest ships of the island are in Nidri, where hundreds of people sail on 3 decks. There are also smaller, more familiar boats with less passengers.
