About This Activity

If you want to experience the magic of two beautiful countries in one unforgettable vacation, our Kos Island Tour from Bodrum is exactly what you’re looking for. Some of the Greek islands are so close to the Turkish coastline that it feels like you could almost swim across and climb onto their shores. We’ve turned that dream into reality by taking you to the stunning Kos Island directly from Bodrum.

Your journey begins with a convenient, complimentary hotel pick-up. Our driver will take you on a short, comfortable ride to Bodrum’s port, where you’ll board our high-speed ferry. From there, we’ll set sail westward toward the enchanting Kos Island. The ferry ride across the Aegean Sea is smooth and scenic, lasting just 20 minutes, before we arrive at the picturesque harbor of Kos Town.

Once on Greek soil, you’ll have eight hours of free time to explore Kos Town at your own pace. The island’s charm is truly unique, with its pastel-colored houses, fascinating archaeological sites, and quaint churches. Wander through the narrow, cobblestone streets and take in the vibrant atmosphere of the modern town square, brimming with chic cafés, stylish shops, and friendly locals. Kos Island effortlessly combines ancient history with contemporary culture, making it a dream destination for every traveler.

Kos, the second-largest island of the Dodecanese group, lies just 12 miles west of Bodrum. This island isn’t just beautiful—it’s historically significant as well. Kos is the birthplace of Hippocrates, the father of medicine. During your visit, don’t miss the chance to see the Hippocrates Tree, where legend says he taught his students the art of healing. History enthusiasts can also explore the ancient site of Asklepieion, the oldest healing center in the ancient world and one of the island’s most remarkable monuments.

After eight hours of sightseeing, relaxation, and discovery, you’ll meet your group back at the harbor for the return journey to Bodrum. Once you arrive, our driver will be waiting to take you back to your hotel, ensuring your day ends as seamlessly as it began.

This is more than just a tour; it’s an opportunity to experience a captivating and unique island without the hassle of long queues or crowded itineraries. Stroll through history, indulge in the wonders of ancient times, and marvel at the breathtaking scenery of Kos Island. Let the stories of the past come alive as you immerse yourself in the timeless beauty of this extraordinary destination.
