The cruises compared here
The gap is € 45 per adult, but the two listings are different products. The day trip lasts six hours and is guided; the ferry has a listed duration of one hour and leaves the rest of the day to you.

1What each one includes
The day trip includes hotel pickup and return, a guide, the crossing between Órzola and Caleta de Sebo, a sailboat ride around La Graciosa, a welcome mojito and tapa, an open bar, lunch and equipment such as kayaks. Snorkel goggles need a € 5 deposit per person.
The ferry includes the round-trip crossing and wifi on board. Hotel pickup and bus transport depend on the version. The listing includes no guide, lunch or water activities.
2Time and flexibility
The day trip is a guided programme of about six hours that takes you back to your hotel, so the order of the day is set for you. The guide speaks Spanish and English, according to the English listing.
With the ferry you decide how long to stay: the listing allows returning the same day, the next day or later. The version with hotel pickup only works for a same-day round trip, depending on availability. The ferry also admits pets.
3Which one to pick
Pick the day trip if you do not want to organise anything: one booking covers transfer, boat, lunch and drinks. It is also the one with more reviews.
Pick the ferry if you plan to explore the island on your own or stay more than a day. Compare the € 45 difference with what you would spend on lunch and activities yourself.
