By bicycle and boat you will explore the Dodecanese islands in the Southern Greek Aegean. Let yourself be mesmerized by the towering volcano crater of Nisyros or the charm of Symi with its wonderful neo-classical buildings of the island capital.
A true highlight of the tour is the bike tour on the Datca Peninsula through incredible nature, leading to the bay of Knidos with its ancient remains. Come with us on a true journey through time: The rock throwing Poseidon, the Knights of St John or the famous sponge divers of Symi - all have left behind their legacy in form of legends and historical constructions that contribute to the unique character of these islands.
Our Tip: Book early, those bike & boat trips fill up fast!
Exclusive e-bike tour for cyclists with a good level of fitness. The tours, including the metres in altitude, can be easily mastered by e-bike (20 - 42 km with 200 - 700 m in altitude per day). All bike tours require participants to have a certain basic level of fitness and to be able to control the bike safely. There is always enough time to complete the tours. Our tour guides will inform you in detail each day about the level of difficulty of the planned daily tour. These are designed as guided e-bike tours.

After breakfast we raise the anchor for a short cruise to Yaliciftlik. From here we start our first bike ride through the local pine forests to Camlik where we will have the chance to refresh ourselves with a short coffee break. We continue cycling through silver-green olive groves to the small village of Etrim. Ancestors of the Turkmen tribes continue to live semi-nomadic lives in the region. We can marvel at their fascinating hand crafts and during a lunch break at a local restaurant we can discover some local cuisine. After lunch we return to Yaliciftlik where we board the boat and cruise to the island of Kos. A wealth of cultural sights in Kos town provide an insight into the town’s turbulent historical past including the Roman Forum, the Crusader fortress, and the mosques from the time when Kos was part of the Ottoman Empire. The evening can be spent in one of the numerous bars or cafes in the town.
We bike in the direction of the world famous archaeological excavation site of the Asclepion in Kos, the former realm of Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine. From here we cycle along the coast back towards the town of Kos. Here we board the boat and cruise to the volcanic island of Nisyros.
Our morning bike ride takes us from Livadia to Megalochorio. If procurable enthusiasts can visit the pygmy elephant museum, before returning back to the boat. A tasty lunch waits for us on board followed by a relaxing cruise from Tilos to the island of Chalki. The picturesque island capital offers a first impression of the classic architecture style which will await us on Symi.
After breakfast disembarkation. Fee-based collective transfers to Bodrum Airport on request. If you wish to fly home from the Island of Kos your ferry will depart at 08:30 am or 9 am. Please insure that your flight departure from Kos is not earlier than 1 pm.

Guided group pace: The tour is primarily designed as an e-bike tour. The group pace is orientated towards the e-bike riders. It is possible to hire a road/gravel bike, but in this case you should be able to keep up with the group pace. We ask for your understanding.
We provide the following bikes on board:
Please note that we can only provide rental bikes for people over 1.50 m tall. If you do not want to do without your own saddle or clipless pedals, you are welcome to bring them with you and have them mounted on your rental bike by your tour guide on site.
Our e-bikes are high-quality pedelecs, which are characterized by a relatively low weight and good equipment. With an e-bike, even steep inclines can be climbed almost effortlessly. So now cyclists with different fitness levels can go on tours together!
Insurance against theft and damage of the rental bike (not covered: intentional damage). See price list for details
Airport: Bodrum (BJV), transfer time Bodrum Airport - Bodrum Harbour approx. 45min.
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.
