What the trip covers
Both listings send you from Skiathos to the other two islands of the Northern Sporades. On Skopelos the highlight is the many churches; at Alonissos it is the blue caves. Alonissos lies inside a national marine park, which protects Mediterranean monk seals and dolphins. Neither listing promises wildlife; seeing any would be a bonus at best.
Neither listing mentions the film. If the film is the reason you are here, the Mamma Mia island trips cover film locations and beaches on Skopelos.

Is it worth nine hours?
- You get two islands for €62, but not a whole day on each, and the listing does not say how long you are ashore. People who want a beach day will be happier on a shorter trip.
- It suits visitors who like towns and sights over swimming.
- Rough sea makes a long day harder. Check the forecast, and ask a pharmacist or doctor if you are prone to seasickness.
- Some listings start on Skopelos itself rather than in Skiathos.
