Overview

Discover the timeless beauty of Rhodes on a journey that blends history, culture, and breathtaking coastal scenery.

Your excursion begins with a scenic drive beyond the Medieval Town walls, where layers of Byzantine, Ottoman, and Italian architecture reveal the island’s rich and diverse heritage. We continue to the entrance of the historic Mandraki Harbour, where, according to tradition, the legendary Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, once stood proudly.

Nearby, visit the impressive Church of the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary, today’s cathedral of Rhodes Town. Built in the style of a three-aisled Gothic basilica, the church features a magnificent wooden roof, striking Gothic wall paintings by Fotis Kontoglou, and grand chandeliers that create an atmosphere of reverence and beauty.

Driving toward the northernmost tip of the island, we pass the Aquarium of Rhodes, an ideal stop for those wishing to explore the fascinating marine life of the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean.

Our journey continues uphill to the Acropolis of Rhodes, offering spectacular panoramic views from Monte Smith Hill. Named after British Admiral Sir Sydney Smith, who was stationed here in 1802, this historic site includes the remains of the Temple of Apollo, the ancient Greek Stadium, and the Amphitheatre, bringing the grandeur of antiquity vividly to life.

After discovering the highlights of Rhodes Town, we head south along the island’s stunning east coast toward the picturesque village of Lindos. Sit back and enjoy views of golden beaches and charming seaside villages along the way.

Upon arrival, Lindos will take your breath away. Whitewashed houses cascade down the hillside beneath the majestic Acropolis of Lindos, rising dramatically above the sparkling blue Aegean Sea. Wander through narrow, labyrinth-like streets, uncover hidden courtyards, and soak in the authentic atmosphere of this historic gem.

For those who wish, climb to the top of the Acropolis to admire the Temple of Athena Lindia, standing guard over the island for centuries. The panoramic view over St. Paul's Bay is simply unforgettable. Afterwards, relax at Lindos Beach and dip your feet in its crystal-clear waters.

Before returning, enjoy a visit to the elegant Kallithea Springs, renowned for their therapeutic waters and striking Italian-era architecture. Stroll through beautifully landscaped gardens, admire intricate mosaics, and capture stunning photos in this idyllic setting.

At the end of your day, you may choose to return to your original pick-up point or be dropped off near the gates of Rhodes Old Town for further independent exploration.

A perfect blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, this tour invites you to experience the very best of Rhodes in one unforgettable day.
