On board a comfortable Turkish Gulet and by bicycle we explore the sunny islands of the Greek Aegean. The islands are a magical and mythical world filled with historical monuments and an abundance of stories. Come with us on a discovery voyage and experience the Aegean from a special perspective, namely, by land and by sea. Relax while swimming in idyllic bays, enjoy the fabulous vistas, and walk in the footsteps of a turbulent, glorious past.
Let us take you to the ancient Asclepion where Hippocrates, the famous physician, practiced modern medicine. Enjoy the peaceful and lovely island of Lipsi and the atmosphere of the holy island Patmos. Astonishing panoramic views will accompany us on our cycle tours.
Our Tip: Book early, those bike & boat trips fill up fast!
Aside from two challenging cycle tours on Kalymnos and Kos, this trip belongs to the less difficult island trips. The day tours average 25 km and take you through mainly hilly terrain. There are also some extended climbs where walking your bike is of course permitted. Most of the roads are asphalted. Your tour guide informs you each day about the tour details.
ADDITIONAL MODULE ISTANBUL- PRE or POST tour
Included services:
Price per person: upon request
Minimum number of participants: 2 person
In the morning you will take a small bike tour on Lipsi, which will take you almost around the entire island, which is mostly agricultural, with its many small churches and chapels and charming beaches. In the afternoon you will cross over to the island of Kalymnos to the main port of Pothia, where you will spend the night today. The old town of Pothia still clearly shows the former wealth of its inhabitants acquired through sponge diving.
Today, a round trip by bike on Kalymnos is on the program, on which you will get to know the whole island, which has made a name for itself far beyond Greece’s borders as a climber’s paradise. You will pass a surprisingly green valley for this barren island and enjoy wonderful views of the bay-rich coast. Back in Pothia, the ship awaits you for lunch and the crossing to Kos Town for overnight.
We reserve the right to make changes to the planned itinerary due to changing wind and weather conditions as well as organizational requirements.

CUSTOMS
Our tour in the South Greek Aegean will start from Bodrum. In order to avoid any travel complications whilst crossing the borders, we request that all participants register for the appropriate travel documentation and visas with their local embassy before arrival on site.
At this point in time many travelers are skeptical about flying into Turkey. We would therefore like to inform you that all of these tours offer an alternative flight route via Kos Island, followed by a ferry connection to Bodrum harbour.
ARRIVAL VIA KOS
If you decided to travel to Bodrum via the Kos Island, it is of utmost importance that your flight times suite the ferry times between Bodrum and Kos.
A taxi service is available from Kos Airport to the ferry terminal in Kos town. The travel time is around 30 minutes. The taxi stand at the airport is located directly outside the arrivals terminal. A price chart can be found at the taxi stand to insure you receive a fair fare.
Should you have enough time to spare, you can make use of the public bus, for a reduced price. The bus station is located around 25 meters away on your left hand side after exiting the airport arrivals terminal. This is where the KTEL bus departs for Kos city, via Mastichari. The ride to Kos city takes around 40mins. Tickets can be purchased on board the bus. More information can be found >>here
The ferry crossing from Kos to Bodrum takes approx. 1 hour. We advise you to be at the ferry terminal at least 30 mins before departure, to provide enough time for any border formalities which might take place. Departure generally takes place at around 5pm, enabling you to reach Bodrum by 6pm.
The returning ferry from Bodrum to Kos generally takes place at around 09:30, enabling you to reach Kos at around 10:30 on the departure day.
The ferry costs around € 25,- per person/crossing (return ticket approx. € 32,-) and should be booked in advance >>here.
Parking: several parking possibilities in the surroundings, approx.€ 8,- per day.
Minimum: 14
Maximum: 30
We ask you to refrain from bringing hard cover luggage, because storage space in the cabins is very limited.
Schedule- and programme changes
The schedule and programme are always subject to change. If a certain route cannot be taken due to high or low tides, the Skipper retains the right to change the route for reasons of safety without this constituting any legal entitlement to a claim.
Bringing Own Bike
Please be informed that only bringing normal trekking-/touring-/city-bikes is allowed. It is NOT possible to bring own E-bikes - those have to be rented; depending on availability.
Helmets
Helmet use is mandatory on all cycle tours. You are strongly encouraged to bring your own (well-fitted) helmet. Cycle helmets are available on board in limited number (on request).
Children
We believe that only children in a good physical condition and with a minimum age of 10 and previous bicycle tour experience are able to master the cycle tours on their own strength. Please note that the minimum height for a rental bicycles is 1.50 m (5 ft.)
Travel documents
EU-citicens should carry a valid passport.
