We booked through trip advisor as found the exact same offer was cheaper here than with TUI or any other rep at the hotel.
The coach picked us up at the hotel and took us to the boat, The trip took about an hour across to the island from Kos. We had a fabulous tour guide who showed some of the town then gave us free time to explore. We enjoyed a drink on the front by a little beach for the kids to play. Everyone was very friendly while walking around. We then met the tour guide again and went by coach to the volcano. She explained about the different towns along the way.
The volcano itself was extremely hot but the kids managed to walk down and explore. There is a strong smell of sulphate but that's to be expected. We saw some smoldering which the kids loved. Definitely an experience to do while in Greece.
Boat trip back and coach ready to take us back to our hotel. A fabulous day out and would recommend

The boat trip lasted about 1 hour each way. The island had a few towns, which we stopped at. The main town called Mandraki was great and well worth exploring. We went to the volcano and walked down into it. It was very hot but well worth the walk. A great day out. It's best to do the trip as a tour, that way you get taken around the island to all of the towns and the volcano.

The views were amazing, we took so many photos. Nisyros is approached by boat from Kardemena , it's hot and there are little islands surfacing from the sea. The view back to Kos is postcard pretty too. We went on a coach up to the volcano, with a guide telling us all about the island, walked around the volcano and that was like I imagine the surface of the moon. There was a coffee shop too. The terraces dug into the hills tell how difficult life would be if you had to grow crops to survive. Then back down the island to the portside town, which was both beautiful architecturally and bustling with gift shops and cafes. If you get the chance to go, I recommend it.

The trip was overall a very lovely day out, all travel was well organised!! We got picked up from near our hotel at the right time and were welcomed onto the trip by our guide who was amazing! We then got the boat over to Nisyros which was a lovely boat trip, we arrived in the village of Mandraki where we got free time, however they wasen’t much to do however so didn’t need much free time we then got on bus to the volcano, had to pay €3 to get in, very smelly but amazing to see we walked down to the crater which was very cool. Had about 40mins and volcano which was a perfect amount of time before we got back on bus and then boat back to kos and another transfer back to our hotel!
