  • "Nissos Mykonos to Samos"

    The 'Nissos Mykonos' is the ONLY quality ship sailing between Athens and Samos: avoid all the others - they are simply disgusting. The 1st class lounge area was good - spoilt only by the screaming children. Something should be done about this. Fortunately, the TVs weren't blaring. The toilets were okay - but more cleanliness is still required. Overall, I would highly recommend using this ship.

  • "Smooth sailing"

    Booked our tickets online in the UK for a return trip from Kos to Samos. Initially emailed the company to ensure it was running prior to booking hotels and flights. They were extremely helpful from the get go and once they confirmed the service was running, it was so easy to book the tickets online. The services paid for ran on time both ways, even though it stopped off at various islands in between Kos and Samos. All staff were friendly and helpful and i would not hesitate to use this service again
