  • Excellent ferry service

    I will recommend to book Greece internal ferry with this company. Their service are reliable and Excellent.

  • Golden Star Ferries

    Highly impressed by both voyages with Golden Star Ferries i.e. Super Ferry 2 from Rafina to Paros and then Super Runner from Naxos to Rafina. 1) Boarding, directions and luggage storage excellent; 2) Maintenance and cleanliness of vessels excellent; 3) Allocation of seating (Super Runner) and travel comfort excellent; 4) Vessel organisation and safety systems excellent; 5) Scheduling of service excellent.

  • A bit anarchic

    [Translated from French]
    The trip went well despite the delay; In Tinos, however, the boat filled up and people took up any place and there were several altercations between people without much follow-up by the staff. The toilets were dirty and there was only one of them for women. On arrival, it was the hustle and no one controlled the people to tell them where to go for the exit.

  • Bad and Nauseating

    Seemed very disorganized. It was hours late. We almost missed our shuttle back to the hotel. It was supposed to be an express and it was not. And it was so nauseating and limited seating only towards the back of the ship. Was not a smooth ride and over an hr late to the destination.

  • Comfrot Depends on vessel

    My trip was from Crete, Heraklio > Santorini (Thira) and back with company: Golden Star Ferries / Vessel: Superferry. Way to Santorini was okay, no dalays, comfort vessel, very kind staff, TV and socket for phone change if you need it. On the way back there was 15 minutes delay and it was very cold at the boat. I really tried to find more or less warm place, but it was very cold due to very strong air conditioning equipment.

  • Too cold

    [Translated from French]
    Air conditioning too strong, we were refrigerated.
    Number of seats not respected.

  • Late

    [Translated from French]
    Delay of 2.5h. Arrival in Athens at 2 o'clock in the morning.

  • Deplorable

    [Translated from French]
    Very good until the payment but then the disaster! Arrival in Athens, no ferry planned while I receive a few minutes before a text message to invite me to enjoy my trip!
    Required to take taxis for another port, another boat with extra charges !!!
    Thank you for proposing me a solution for compensation as soon as possible !!!!

  • Very unhappy

    [Translated from French]
    I am very shocked about what happened for my return from vacation! Ferry canceled, they warn you at the last moment, I had to take the next ferry, which made me miss my plane! Without speaking that nobody helps you, not even the agency! By the way it was necessary to buy a very expensive ticket of plane to return and spend 24 hours later in the airport. I would like to be reimbursed for this ticket, it would be a minimum!

  • Disappointment

    We where informed that the ferry from Amorgos to Mykonos had mechanical problems and that's why our transport was totally canceled only a week before. This change costed us a last minute reservation in mykonos and a lost day of prepaid accommodation and car in amorgos. The company didn't have any intention of refunding us for anything, even for the cancelled ferry route we had to make a request in our respective travel agency. I wouldn't trust them again, more trouble than convenience. They have, maybe, the highest ferry prices in Greece for a very medium service.

  • Golden star ferries

    Golden star ferries were very efficient. Easy to book. Very fast getting people on and off the ferry. On the ferry the food prices were reasonable.

  • Terrible

    Me and my friends booked ferries from Rafina to Tinos and then back. The first one left the port one hour later than it supposed to. It was annoying but acceptable as we didnt need to be in a rush. But the second one from Tinos to Rafina came 2 HOURS later and I missed my flight from Athens home. Of course I didnt hear any excuses, only thing I ve heard was : "It is normal in Greece". No guys, it is not normal, people should trust your service when planning holidays. THIS would be normal.

  • Superb

    Very efficient transport: boarding and unboarding is quick. Staff is friendly.

  • Golden Star Express

    [Translated from French]
    Everything is fine except that the ferrying from Tinos to Mykonos instead of Rafina departed at about the same time. Which is confusing. So I had to buy a plane ticket from Mykonos when I had to leave Athens.
    It would be best to specify the destination before boarding rather than once the ferries leave the ship and it is too late to turn around.

  • Golden Star is not good

    I was pleased with 2/3 of my ferry rides. The ferry I took from Rafina to Mykonos was with Golden Star Ferries. I was very unhappy with this ferry. It did not allow passengers to be outside on the deck of the boat. It felt like an airplane with seats squished together, and the snacks aboard were expensive. The other two ferry companies (Sea Jets and Blue Star Ferries) used were delightful.

  • Over 1.5 hours delay

    Don't book with Golden ferries. They are every day delayed. This is the information that we got from a restaurant at the port. Really bad service!

  • Lack of Service

    [Translated from French]
    We were distressed because there was no service in First Class. Why not give access to the internet for free and the bar on any of the boats, I couldn't get a glass of white or red wine because there was only beer, and you have to go to the bar to be serviced because no one comes to the tables. Then the food remains to be desired, there is nothing to eat, why have a menu if you do not have anything that is available? It was very hot on board no air conditioning was on, except the last boat because it was full. The staff is kind. From our experience "First class" wasn't first at all!

  • Wrong time of the boat and no rufund of airplane ticket

    They sell me a ticket with the wrong time of the boat, I lost the boat and they are not refounding me in the full amount that I`ve spent in the airplane ticket.

  • Roundtrip Rafina-Naxos-Koufonisi-Paros-Rafina

    Excellent and punctual service. Recommendable.

  • 2 hours out of schedule on a declared 3:15 run

    We took a Golden Ferry II from Santorini to Heraklion. The voyage should take 3:15. Actually, it took 4:25. Nobody announced any information about it. Instead of 10:20 pm we arrived at 00:20 pm. They should provide a real-time to let people plan their journey. But who cares?! I would not recommend this company at all.

  • Golden star Ferry

    To our amazement, we loved the ferry line and were so surprised when we saw an escalator to take us up to the above deck!!!

  • Cancelled ferries

    We booked using this site and no fault of their own twice our ferries were cancelled. Once we had to pay for a more expensive boat at the port and once they change us to a later ferry on a much older boat that rocked the whole time and took double the time to get to our destination. I understand that this is not the booking companies fault but no communication from the ferry companies were given to us until we arrived at the port where we had to join long lines in the hot heat to find a solution. Very stressful and unpleasant on vacation.

  • Cyclades 2018

    Very good services

  • Magnificent ferries

    [Translated from Russian]
    Very nice and comfortable ferries! I enjoyed traveling with them, they have it all!
    [Original text]
    Очень красивый и комфортабельный паром! я получила удовольствие побывав на нем, есть все!

  • Everything was ok, but what a cold !!!!

    Overall, everything worked, but it would be nice if the temperature wasn't that low in every room of the ship.

  • Bad business, bad safety

    Traveling for Mykonos to Rafina with 2 stops on the way, in the last one the ferry delayed 2 hours due to overbooking car spaces. Some people for absolutely no reason got left outside, others lost their planes, everyone got delayed. They even had the audacity to put the blame on the drivers and parking assistants for "missmanaging the available space". People lost it as soon as they heard that since most locals that take this Sunday trip often said that this happens almost every time. I higly advise against this company if another alternative is available.

  • Unfriendly staff

    Extremely unfriendly staff who repeatedly asked me in a rude way to leave areas of the ferry that were freely accessible and not marked as a special area. When I just wanted to take a quick look at the map of the café, I was instructed in a degrading way to leave the "Business Class area" immediately, without the info where I might get something to drink. Nice, courteous approach looks different. In addition, noisy construction work while traveling. Next time another ferry company.

  • Cancelled Ferry = Missed Plane Flight

    We had a ferry trip from Mykonos to Athens that was scheduled the night before out flight back to USA. We downloaded our boarding passes, went to the port but the Ferry wasn't there! We ended up missing our flights home and had to buy new tickets for the following day $1000 each ($3000 total) We were told that Golden Star Ferries would reimburse us since we weren't notified in advance of the cancellation but they will not respond to any emails or letters from my lawyer. My last ditch effort is to leave a bad review in hopes that someone in power gets in contact with me...

As per the check proceeded, this number unfortunately was wrong so this is obviously the reason that you did not receive the notification. The mobile number that you had provided when making the booking is the one that the ferry company has access to via the central booking system. You can check the mobile number you provided on your booking confirmation email.

    Always at your disposal.

  • I traveled with the SupperRunner to Ios and back and I was pleased with the accommodations and the staff but the trip was about 1 1/2 to 2 hours longer with no real reason like weather or other delays and that can be a problem especially when you arrive really late (11pm) in Rafina and have to drive to Athens (Chalandri) to meet with the AirBnb apartment owners to get the keys and find something to eat. Other than that my experience was good and I will definitely book my island travels with them again.

  • The ferry is a comfortable and cheap way to travel over Greece. Thumbs up, carry on, guys!
