  • "Warning!"

    Lovely ship and journey once we had made it onto the correct boat with the correct ticket, which was a very close thing. Be warned that if you book online and print off a piece of paper with all the correct details that DOES NOT allow you to travel. You must still find the Blue Star office, which is not very obvious to see on the wharf at Piraeus, and obtain a different form of ticket before then finding the correct boat, which is NOT located at either E6 or E7. But definitely worth paying the extra for Business Class!

  • "Ferry ok and was on time "

    The ferry we took from Athens to Mykonos was ok. It was clean, on time, the staff friendly. Nice coffee shop but a bit pricey, good coffee but the food was not that great. Recommendation - in future send us options to print boarding passes before the trip rather than make a que at the ticket centre before the trip.

  • "I used Sea Jet and Blue Star Ferries - Amazing Amazing and Amazing!"

    Reading reviews on these ferries I was very worried about our experience. But it was in fact a 360 turn for me. It was so good. First of all in Europe you have to worry about your luggage because all companies love to charge for it, left right and centre, it’s ridiculous. But these ferries do not, so if your traveling within Europe or its mostly in Greece that you need this mode of transportation I would highly recommend it. Even if your paying slightly more than a flight and even if it’s longer, choose this options. Flights are too much work verses taking ferries. The only concern is the fact that the arrival for them is always late, 30 to hour wait at one time. But still I would say ferries are the best transportation between islands in Greece. Also these ports for ferries are located much closer the airports to destinations.

  • "Enjoyable and pleasant"

    My husband and I have recently returned from our holiday in Greece. We travelled from Pireaus to Lipsi and returned to Pireaus the following week. On our journey there, we enjoyed the luxuries of the ship, sampling the cuisine and relaxing in the many lounges available throughout. We made use of the WiFi to keep in touch with family and friends, and we spent time walking the different decks and experiencing the gorgeous views of the Aegean Sea. The crew were friendly, professional and helpful. They were available to answer any questions we had, and were comfortable in speaking English, which was one of our concerns prior to travel. Across from the purser's desk, we noticed a "live" map of Greece and the surrounding Aegean Sea, and we watched the red arrow marking our progress on our journey, much like we find in air travel. The ship's crew were mindful of safety as we boarded and disembarked the ship, and they tended to our comfort with personal requests for medicine to help with sea sickness as the waters were a bit rough at one point. Upon our return, we chose to hire a cabin for the night, and we found the facilities were top notch: clean, roomy, many amenities, full en suite bathroom, soft beds and pillows, desks and chairs, space for our luggage, and plenty of light. We slept in comfort for the evening and woke refreshed and ready for our next adventure. I couldn't be more pleased with our experience. I look forward to enjoying our next holiday to Greece with Blue Star Ferries.

  • "Excellent Crossing"

    Blue Star were excellent in all aspects of my journey The website was easy to use. When I collected my ticket at Rhodes the young man was courteous and helpful , especially as I was so tired from a long journey. The toilets were immaculate and cleaned regularly. It was great that I could store my luggage in a secure lock up this helped me relax and saviour the experience. There was a range of food and drinks on board too. Perhaps, a bus from Rhodes airport to the port could be provided? The taxi fare was 26 Euros.I have since discovered that I can do part taxi and bus from Rhodes square at 2 Euros. Also , please mention there are excellent cafes along the commercial port. I hope my return journey from Tilos to Rhodes is equally good. Thank you.

  • "Blue Star Ferries are consistently excellent."

    We actually travelled 4 times on Blue Star Ferries during our month in Greece (between Rhodes, Karpathos, Kos, Nisyros, Symi) and were very impressed each time. The ships are efficient, punctual, clean, comfortable and make for a very enjoyable experience. And they seem to get their schedules out earlier which always helps when trying to book your trip from abroad in advance. The staff were attentive and helpful. Overall, very pleased. Only downside for us was the price of coffee!

  • "A fantastic way to get to Symi"

    We caught the Blue Star biat from Rhodes to Symi and were very impressed with the cost, the boat and the crew. The fare was extremely cheap and a lot better value than the only competitor. Crew were available when we arrived and helped us to stow our luggage. The boat was spotlessly clean and well equipped with bars and cafes. Very comfortable seats both on deck and inside. A fantastic way to arrive on Symi. We were not able to use Blue Star for the return journey as the times were not compatible with the flight.
