What to expect

Don't miss an excellent opportunity to explore all the highlights of Rhodes Island in one day only.

This tour will start at the historical Kallithea Thermes, which is famous for its spring water, and it will continue with a panoramic tour of the Mandraki harbor, towards the highest point of Rhodes town - to make a short photo stop with breathtaking view before we continue our way to the west at the ancient city of Kameiros. Houses with atriums, temples, altars and bases of statues are only a few of the remnants of this little “Pompeii” of Rhodes. Kameiros, along with Lindos and Ialyssos, were the first cities on the island.

Afterwards the tour leads us to Apollona village, a small mountain village in the heart of Rhodes, where you'll visit a traditional shop to taste a local spirit called "souma” as well as some locally produced wines.

Next you'll be given some free time to have lunch at a traditional Greek tavern, maybe to taste "meze", before continuing up into the mountain of Profitis Ilias for a coffee break and a photo stop. Last but not least, you'll make a quick visit to one of the Fountoukli monasteries.

    Too much time at 1929 hotel in hills and too long for lunch. We could have done with more time at butterfly valley and the Springs.

Guided island tour of western Rhodes’ top attractions

Guided island tour of western Rhodes’ top attractions

Dotted with sleepy villages, pine-clad mountains and age-old ruins, western Rhodes has a rugged beauty all of its own. This tour ticks off some of the top picks. You'll visit the ancient city of Kamiros, the mountain villages of Embona and Siana as well as Butterfly Valley – home to hundreds of Callimorpha butterflies. Nicholas, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Kamiros offers a glimpse into the daily life of its ancient inhabitants and shows how ingenious the people who built it were. The water supply system, with its complex network of cisterns and aqueducts, is well-preserved and really interesting.'First up is Butterfly Valley – a natural park home to hundreds of the friendly, fluttering creatures. Wander along shaded wooden walkways and enjoy the calming pools of trickling water as you observe these colourful insects all around – stay still and one may even land on you. As well as the butterflies, the park features a variety of other flora and fauna, including lots of wildflowers and birds.Next, you'll travel back in time at ancient Kamiros. The tidily laid out streets and remains of the agora and acropolis will give you a sense of how the residents went about their daily lives in the 5th century BC. You'll get an app on entry, which shows how the city would have looked in 3D. Next, you'll have free time for lunch in Embona – the highest village in Rhodes – and visit the mountain-side settlement of Siana.

Lindos Acropolis & Rhodes Old Town Highlights Tour
Excursions & day trips

Lindos Acropolis & Rhodes Old Town Highlights Tour

Few islands in Greece can match the heritage of Rhodes. And this wealth forms the centrepiece of this tour. Discover it all with an expert local guide. Dimitris, one of our guides, says, ‘Lindos was built in the 10th century BC by the Dorians. It's the third-most visited site in all of Greece, which shows just how significant it is.' You'll also enjoy a walking tour of the old town of Rhodes and see the Palace of the Grand Master. Headsets allow direct connection between you and your guide.Dimitris believes Rhodes is blessed with some of the best scenery in Greece. He says, ‘Lindos lies near a fantastic sandy beach, surrounded by hills hiding the village, protecting the place from the attacks of the pirates. On top of the small sugar cube houses stands the ancient Acropolis and the Temple of Athena.' You'll get to appreciate these very views during a coffee stop at a typical family-run café. Climb to the mountaintop Acropolis as your guide brings to life the myths and legends of the ancients as you take in views of St Paul's Bay below.Rounding off the day, we'll head to the old town Rhodes – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – for a guided tour. Because so much of the excursion is walking, it reduces the activity's carbon footprint. Wander the winding, cobbled streets, lined with historic houses and boutiques, and walk down the Street of the Knights. The star attraction is the Palace of the Grand Master – an enormous 13th-century fortress originally built by the Knights of St John.
