Just returned from Tingaki, we did the three island cruise through Thomsons and the coach picks you up from the hotel and brings you home afterwards. The boat was the Santa Maria and the crew were excellent, we saw a school of dolphins and the skipper tried his best to get close to them although they tended to be a bit unpredictable and just popped up werever they liked ! You can book the trip from one of the tour operators in the high street and it will probably be cheaper but by going through your rep at least you have some insurance and comeback if anything goes wrong! Our 1 year old baby boy loved it , the crew made a fuss of him and nothing was too much trouble for them , they carried the pushchair on and off the boat for us as well!

We're in Kos for two weeks in May/June and this trip is at the top of our list!
4 of us going to kos, in 6 weeks, staying in tingaki, would love to go on the 3 island cruise on the katerina. Can anyone tell us how easy it is to get to Kos town from Tingaki for the 10am sailing.
Hello ! myself and my partner are due to fly to Kos next week for the first time, and are intrested in the 3 island boat trip, and the Zia greek night. we are in Psalidi and was wondering where the nearest excursion/ travel office is to book these trips?
Found a lot of info about the Katarina boat, but does anyone have some more info about the San Maria boat?
We have been going to Kos for a few years now, always at the beginning of May, the trips from Kos Town have always been available
The Katerina Boat trip looks fab ! We are due to land in Kos 5th May. We are really really hoping that it will be running then. Anyone know? Kind Regards, Maxine.
Maria boat is a must for the 3 island cruise, the captain and crew are amazing, they are such good fun, they make you feel very welcome, and they make sure you have the best time ever!!., included in the price is a BBQ lunch which is all fresh meat, salad and Tzatziki and it is delicious, and the islands they take you to are amazing, you visit Pserimos, Kalymos and Plati and also provide life jackets for swimming and fishing rods if you fancy doing a spot of fishing. We went on the Maria 3 times, 2 of which was the 3 island cruise and once to watch the sunset on the sunset cruise in the evening, all 3 trips were absolutely brilliant, can't wait to go back next year!!

My husband and I went to Kos Town in August. We decided to book on the Katerina because it had such good reviews. I would highly recommend this boat. The captain and crew are very friendly and welcoming. The food was lovely, and the entertainment was great. In fact we enjoyed the day so much we booked again for a few days later. Again we had another fabulous day and on the way to the third island saw dolphins!!!!!. We stayed at least half an hour while the dolphins swam round the boat. If you go to Kos make sure you book on the Katerina, you will not be dissapointed.
Went to try to book the Katerina. Was really looking forward to it. We waited until the second week of our hols, which was the end of the 1st week in October. Unfortunatley this boat had fininshed the day b4 and had headed off for the winter. So if you want to do this trip make sure it's by the 1st week in October, or you will be like me, very dissapointed.
Have just returned from Kos and took the advice of many of your contributors and went on the 3 Island Cruise on the Katerina. My wife and myself were delighted with the cruise and were glad that we followed the advice provided. This was without doubt one of the best cruises that we have ever been on and Captain George is the best host that you could have, he has such enthusiasm for making sure everyone has a good time and the last leg of the trip when the sails were hoisted was something that should not be missed. We did not see any of the other vessels that do the 3 Island cruise raise their sails like the Katerina. Also the Pirate cameo, the greek dancing, and the take off of the scene from the Titanic, were hilarious. We are planning to return to Kos next year and have already decided that we will again take the 3 Island cruise with Captain George. Thanks George and Katerina for an unforgettable day.
The 3 island cruise on the Katerina is very good value for money. George and his family are great hosts and kept us entertain, with a good lunch at a local traverna on Kalymnos and swimming off the island of Plati. Even my wife enjoy the cruise and she isn't a lover of boating.
Sorry but have to disagree. We thought the best was KATERINA.
