No stress day in bodrum - Booked at the exas booth on Kos harbour and opted for hotel pick up . Price €54 all in . I couldn’t fault anything , prompt pick ups , 25 min crossing , no queues to speak of at either passport control .

Lovely Bodrum - Lovely day in Bodrum. Although the trip was shorter than expected as the ferry did not arrive until 1.5 hours later with no explanation as to why, so we had less time in Bodrum. Bodrum was lovely though and would still recommend

Very nice trip - We booked a day trip to Bodrum with Kos Activities through Get your Guide. The organization was perfect. We received all the information for check-in in advance via WhatsApp. The crossing took about 30 minutes and you also had the opportunity to buy drinks on the ship. The customs clearance took a while, but at least you left the EU and your documents were checked both when you left and when you entered the country. The organizer has no influence on this, of course. So everything was great!

Visit to a wonder - Travelled by taxi to Kos Town thinking the driver was going to the wrong place.In fact she was right and took us to customs where I had a mare getting through with a Northern Cyprus stamp on the passport.Great boat trip and Bodrum was a bit overwhelming so have a plan.Walked up to the Mausoleum one of the seven wonders of the world.Not much there but I’ve been.Bargains to be had and some unusual football shirts for sale although fake.

Timings confusing - The boat and crew were fantastic. The passport control on either side were unbelievably incompetent, so disorganised. It’s not like they were doing it every single day! Also much confusion about timings. The ticket said the return sailing time was 1600. As we left the boat a sign was held aloft stating 1500. Factor in the time difference between Kos & Bodrum left us completely lost. It turns out the 1500 sign meant that’s when the passport control opened. A very simple solution would be a sign saying Current time in Bodrum xxxx, Passport Control opens at xxxx, Boat departs at xxxx. So easy to do and no confusion.

Beware of false advertising - Beware of companies that will lie to you about everything from trip duration to port of arrival. There are fast speed boats that make the trip in 30 mins and others that take up to an hour to get there. Salespeople are ready to blatantly lie about travel times. The older, heavier boats (like Malena) falsely advertise making the trip in 30 mins but actually take an hour or more.

Turkish nightmare - Very long to clear passport controls both ways. The market don't stop wanting you to buy thought there confuse you and rip you off BE WARNED. So not much rest when there.
