Aegean Island Hopper: 8-Day Shared Cruise (Bodrum – Kos – Symi – Rhodes – Bodrum)

Aegean Island Hopper: Bodrum to Rhodes and Back

This 8-day, 7-night cabin charter is one of the most rewarding long-distance itineraries in the Eastern Mediterranean, linking the Turkish coast with the storied Greek islands of Kos, Symi and Rhodes. Departing from Bodrum's marina, guests share a beautifully maintained gulet with fellow travellers, sailing between sun-soaked bays and historic harbours over the course of a week.

From the medieval old town of Kos to the pastel-hued architecture of Symi and the grand knights' fortifications of Rhodes, the Aegean Island Hopper rewards travellers who want more than a coastal hop — it's a genuine island-hopping expedition combining culture, swimming and relaxed island life, before returning via Datça's ancient Knidos and the crystal waters of Karaada.

Life Aboard Your Gulet

Onboard, this shared cruise runs on a full-board basis, with a welcome cocktail, home-style meals prepared by the crew, and a daily afternoon tea and cake service. Unlimited soft drinks, beer and house wine are included throughout, letting you relax fully without worrying about incidentals.

Each day blends unhurried sailing with time ashore — swimming stops in secluded coves, free time to explore island towns, and overnight moorings in atmospheric harbours such as Kos, Symi and Rhodes town. It's an ideal choice for travellers seeking a longer, more immersive cabin charter experience across two countries in one seamless voyage.
