You'll embark at Kefalos Bay and set sail along the coast to the tip of the island. Along the way there'll be a swimming stop in turquoise waters as you wait for the sun to do its magic and turn the skies shades of orange and pink.You'll head to a secluded beach for an apéritif where you'll also be the only guests.

Really enjoyed the boat tour. The host was really good fun. The beach lovely. I wish we would have been better prepared as we didn't realise you'd be allowed to swim, jump off the boat.

We heard the captain was great fun, hee started off well then didn't really do much more. The boat was extremely old, we went soo called private beach, had a cocktail ( was a thimbleful) it was sprite.) Food was lukewarm The dancing was okay, he then took us out to sea and was explaining about the church on the hill and other things. The sunset was disappointing as he was on the wrong side of the island so we didn't see the sun dip into the sea. All in all we were quite disappointed at £88.00

Absolutely loved this trip, well worth the money and staff were absolutely amazing and hilarious. The beach is pebble not sand so wear good footwear! And remember to take bug spray, there were a few too many wasps around... Sunset was beautiful and I would absolutely go again but with bug spray

Excellent excursion overall. Only issue was delayed pickup for the returning coach, approx half hour delay. However the boat and crew all first class can’t fault any. All happy to help and the swimming and Greek dancing competition was great fun on the secluded beach. Very tasty bbq food and vodka cocktails and a brilliant sunset in Kefalos bay to finish also one of the crew went above and beyond waiting for the late coach and warmed us up with ouzo. OPAH!!!!! Yamas Kamari Crew.

I went on this trip with my two children aged 7 and 15. We were all made very welcome and entertained. The crew were friendly and amusing. Take cash if you want alcohol or crisps. We took water and found the drinks provided whilst small was still sufficient as you could help yourself if you wanted more. The BBQ was simple but tasty and the Greek dancing competition was great fun. Really enjoyed it and thought it was great value for money. Would recommend.

Luckily our hotel (Porto Bello Royal) was quite near the destination, an hours coach ride away, as the 2.5 hour trip was in fact 6 hours including the transfer. Beautiful secluded natural beach, but please do note it’s very pebbly, large pebbles, so tricky to enter and exit the sea. Take drinks as not enough were provided and take cash if you want more than squash or punch. Beautiful sunset and opportunity to see where Mamma Mia was filmed. Cute goats and cats on the secluded beach.

The trip sets off from Kefalos which was a long journey from our hotel, however don’t let this put you off as the sunset boat trip was one of the highlights of our holiday. The staff are extremely friendly and fun, and make everyone feel welcome. The trip includes a boat trip to a private beach, where you get cocktails, amazing food and get to experience authentic Greek dancing with a prize for the best dancer. You then sail to the sunset spot where the views are stunning. Highly recommend!

Wonderful funny host. Delightful scenery. Delicious beach bbq. The trip is not recommended for "people with mobility issues" I walk with crutches, but the crew were amazing. Lent a guiding arm on and off the boat, and made sure I got my food ok! Please, change the wording on your website. You are putting off people who could potentially have a great experience! Same goes for your safari tours. As long as you can get into the jeep, it's perfectly doable for someone on crutches!

If you are staying at grecotel it's a 2 hour coach trip we were unaware of this and the driver hung about at one hotel pickup for 30 mins. This made us tired so by the time we got to the boat we were fed up, however the host was full of energy, you're on the boat for about 10 minutes before you reach a private pebble beach which to be honest I think it's just deserted, we were given a drink in a small plastic cup and a BBQ which was ok. There was greek dancing but not enough room for everyone.

Theo, our captain was great, very entertaining. A small boat trip to a private beach where we got to swim, learn a Greek dance and have dinner. Be aware quite a bit of time is spent on the dancing. Then back on the boat to watch the sunset.

The whole experience was great from start to finish. Theo and his team were brilliant... The beach was a little down trodden and a stone beach, so would recommend swimming shoes.... however the Bbq.. the entertainment by Theo made up for that... The sunset itself was incredible.. No words can describe it.. Would highly recommend this experience

The itinerary was quite vague and ultimately didn't live up to my expectations. The boat trip element was great but the wine in particular lacked quality The guides were great but the Greek dancing was somewhat over indulgent. It felt like a lot more effort went into that when it didn't really improve the experience

This excursion was great fun! The bus brings you to Kefalos port, where you meet the boat staff. The boat takes you out to their private (stone) beach, where you have an hour or so to swim and jump off the boat. Bring towels/swim gear/snorkels. There was a starter and a drink, and then we were taught a Greek dance. I was initially a bit nervous about this but it was all very well managed by the main guy. There is a lovely bbq and the boat travels back and waits to catch the sunset. A great trip!

We loved the trip to the remote beach and a chance to swim in the sea, followed by watching the sun set behind Kefalos. The crew were fantastic, and did their best to keep us entertained. We were a little disappointed with the barbeque as there wasn't any vegetarian options. Fortunately, I had the foresight to make some cheese sandwiches from our breakfast buffet. The pebbly beach was a little difficult to walk on bare footed

Not as expected as have done other sunset cruises elsewhere with TUI Boat was uncomfortable, beach was awful, no alcohol drinks unless you paid, no water unless you paid despite being sold as drinks included Waiting for the sunset to happen was very cold and quite pointless? How can you look directly at a sunset? Other TUIcruises have driven along, usually while you are eating or drinking, not just sat moored out at sea in gale force winds- crew were all dressed in winter Food was good

Fantastic trip, lots to do and see. The boat staff were amazing and worked hard to ensure everyone was having a great time. The only downside was the trip is advertised as being 2-4 hours, when in fact with pick ups and activities it’s more like 5.5/6 hours in total. Just worth factoring in if you have any plans after.

This is a lovely trip but a few tips We stayed in the Michaelangelo hotel which is right on the other end of the island which was a 3 hour round trip of transfer to the actual trip which goes from kefalos This does need to be stated when booking Also once the sun goes down it becomes very chilly on the boat so advise take a light cardigan or sweater People were wrapped in towels The return bus was delayed but made a speedy trip back All in all the captain was brilliant we enjoyed

This was a fantastic experience. Great fun, exactly what we wanted. The boat and staff were fabulous. Beach was beautiful, and private, with enough tables in the shade for everyone. BBQ was lovely! Drinks and Meze, dancing, swimming and snorkeling, jumping off the boat, plus a laid back cruise at the end with sunset views. These excursions are what you make them so enjoy every minute of this beautiful island and ignore the negative reviewers who need to lighten up. Thank you to everyone involved

Overall a great boat trip, lots of fun and nice barbecue but the sunset itself not quite as expected - as we were sailing from a southern port, the sun was behind the island (behind mountains) and we only went round the island’s western tip to watch the sunset only a couple of minutes before the sunset. It would have been better to set sail from a northern port to see the sun for much longer without any obstruction from mountains or from the island.

Crew were great and really tried to get you involved - could not fault them. BBQ was ok. The bay had nothing to recommend it. The beach was very stony, difficult to walk on. Needs more walkways to get to sea - was not easy to swim. Sunset was spectacular and worth going for that only. Boat engine had a very strong smell of diesel that was off putting.

The boat trip over to the island was lovely. The private bay for bbq was awful. You need to take water shoes to walk to The sea and there is nowhere to relax and enjoy the sunshine. The bbq wasn’t that good. The bread was stale and the wine was served in shot glasses. My advice would be to have a late lunch. The whole place looked run-down not in an authentic way. The viewing of the sunset was beautiful. We have cancelled our day trip as we realised it was to the same bay so not worth it

I have rated the experience as poor, this has no reflection on the cruise staff or guide - they were amazing. The description does not explain the full cruise in enough detail, the beach is a pebble beach - and difficult to traverse, I highly doubt anyone with a disability would be able to, there was no mention of this or we could have prepared. Disembarking from the boat to the beach is difficult as the rear of boat just rests on the jetty and moves with the tide.

Me and my partner were really looking forward to this cruise because of how it was described on the tui app. The beginning was ok the beach and the barbecue was nothing special but we went mainly for the sunset. But unfortunately we didn’t get to experience that has the boat broke down so we didn’t get to see the main reason for the cruise. I don’t think the tui representative was helpful at all it was just a things happen kind of thing which isn’t acceptable when I paid £90 for this excursion,

Please ignore the trip advisor negatives and book this sunset cruise!! We chose it as it was a better time of day for our two kids ( not out all day in the mid day sun) . The coach picked us up on time, it was a full boat but not overcrowded, the crew who are one family were simply wonderful and the made it for us.....this was the polar opposite to the 3 island all day rushed affairs you usually get, this was so relaxed so chilled and fun....book this above the rest!!
