Symi Chat

Some time ago I remember someone telling me that a fello Brit travelled from UK every year with their dog. If said person is reading this would love to talk to you about this or if anybody has info would be grateful.

I think the challenge is getting your dog into and out of the Schengen area. A long time French lady visitor (known only to us as Madame, somewhat unoriginally) brings her small dog to Symi each year and with apparently little formality - if my French comprehension is correct it even sits on her lap in the plane (though it is a very small dog)!

Somehow I don't see the UK charter/low cost airlines being quite so co-operative, even if you have all the vaccination certificates, microchips etc etc. But good luck anyway.

Hi Sue - me again

Sitting waiting for a phonecall...

If you use the message board search functionality (link at the top of this page) and search for 'taking pets to symi' 'match exact phrase' and 'search in subject only' you'll find the request you posted in February last year and all the replies you received (including one from me which basically said the same as this time, so at least I'm consistent!).

There is/was an English couple who drive across Europe with their dog(s) to get to Symi. Kojak or Adriana may know them, alternatively try asking Jord or Jennine as they may well know them personally.

Thanks Jan and Maz
