How can a day tour be designed?

1. Depart from the main resort early in the morning
2. Arrive at the excursion destination after a maximum of 2.5 hours (usually less)
3. You will have enough time to explore everything and enjoy your time (from 6 to 10 hours!)
4. Return journey in the afternoon

An example: You are on holiday on the Cyclades island of Mykonos and you would like to visit the neighboring island of Santorini for a day. So, you take the fast ferry from Mykonos New Port, Tourlos, at 09:00 in the morning. During the crossing you can enjoy the wonderful sea view of the Aegean Sea while you have a light refreshment or breakfast. After 2 hours of sailing, at 11:00 a.m. you will arrive at Athinios Port in Santorini. Now you have up to 7 hours to explore the island! At 6:00 p.m. you'll get back on the ferry port for the return journey and you'll be in Mykonos again by around 8:00 p.m. at the latest.

The departure and arrival times, as well as the length of stay on the respective island, depend on the route and type of ship booked. In any case, especially in high season, you have a large selection of routes to adapt crossing times and length of stay to your needs.
