Hello, Does anyone know if there is a ferry on October 4 (Tuesday) from Samos to Mykonos. I kept on checking Greekferries.gr website, but it looks like they only have it till the last Tuesday in September. I am so worried because Oct.4 is less than 4 weeks away and I am now suspicious that maybe there is no ferry. I don't know whether to continue to wait not knowing if the schedule is published later or there is just no ferry, in which case, I should change my itinerary. If anyone of you know what the situation is is, please help me out with the info.

What is the distance between Samos and Kusadasi, how long does it take via ferry? what port does one leaves from when going to Kusadasi? and one last question. How far is the airport from the port.

HI - My original plan was to go to Kos - I am currently in Greece - then take the ferry to Samos and from there go to Kusadasi and continue up to Istanbul by bys - I am told there are no longer ferries between Kos and Samos in this season, by an agent for the grand lines -Are there local services? Are there ferries between Kusadasi-Samos? If there are no ferries between Kos and Samos I might have to go inland to Bodrum, up to Kusadasi then on to Samos - Thank you for your help - Jean

We want to spend 1 week in the islands, the two islands we want to visit are Mykonos & Santorini. The greek ferries havent declared their timetables yet:( 1.

Hello all - Flying into Samos Sept 13 arrive 16:05 - ferry to Kusadasi leaves at 17:00. Several questions- is it possible to get a taxi at Samos airport and make it to the ferry? Appears to be several sites to purchase ferry tickets but ISTA travel seems to be the major source? What is the cost and how long does it take to process out of Samos? Can not find a web site for ISTA. Can ferry tickets be purchased in advance? Any advice or recommendations would be welcome. Thanks

I'm going to Samos on Thursday, can't wait!!! Am I right in thinking that Samos has a music festival in Pagondas this bank holiday weekend? Which day(s) is it on? Also is the weather likely to be sunshine/showers over the next week or so, I've seen some bad predictions on the internet lately.

I have already looked on the VT-Travelguide about Samos, but couldn't find an appropriate hotel or pension in Pythagorion. Who knows a hidden gem (pension or small hotel) ?? If possible with website and/or email.

Hi! We need to get from Kusadasi in Izmir to either Mykonos or Athens in April this year. So far we have only been able to find a (rather expensive!) ferry that goes from Kusadasi to Samos. A couple of questions: 1) From Samos is there any ferry that we can take to get to Mykonos or Athens? So far none of the major ferry websites like http://www.ferries.gr/ and http://www.greekferries.gr/ seem to have such an option. In fact, how DOES one get out of Samos by ferry to any of the other major Greek islands? Is Samos being listed under another name on the websites? 2) Alternatively, is there any ferry that goes straight from Kusadasi to Mykonos or Athens (or any other major Greek island)? Being able to book the tickets online or at least book in advance would be a great plus. Thanks in advance for the help! Really appreciated. warm regards lxkd

We are two women who have a flight to Samos in August but haven't booked any accommodation yet. We will probably spend the first two nights and last night in Samos but we would love to visit other islands too. Neither of us have been to Greece so would appreciate any information please. Would we have trouble getting accommodation on any of the Isands, we are not too fussy and don't want to spend much? Where should we go, is it safe, etc. Any ideas would be great, Thanks Alison

Hey My wife and I have now settled our plans - and hope to travel from Kusadasi (Turkey) via Samos thru some other greek islands, over to Athens. Two questions: a) We will begin our travels on the 22 July 04, do we need to book ferry tickets before hand, or can we just rock up on the day and expect to get a berth? b) If we need to pre book - then does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this? I have found a couple of websites that offer it, but only in combination with their choice of accomodations - and we on a tight budget so hoping to hostel it (or camp or pension). Any suggestions well appreciated. Cheers Drew

We are travelling to Pythagorian in Samos in 2004 and would appreciate any advise and opinions particularly on the Anthis Apts just outside Pythagorian.
