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.

Interesting tour with a great guide. Just about the right number of people on the tour. The lunch options was good value in a nice local taverna. Probably the only thing that could be improved is the last stop which was the Elafos Hotel. This didn't add anything to the tour.

The guide was really good as was the meal. We enjoyed the trip. It would be good to include the price of the meal. We did think that the price of the trip was over priced given it only covered the coach and guide.

The tour itself was okay and informative. We were told when booking we would be able to choose where we ate, not only were we unable to choose where but we were also told what we will be eating. We spent a lot longer on the coach than was sold to us at the time booking.

Coach driver was excellent. The archaeologist site was expensive for what time we got to stay there & we felt our guide spent more time explaining to the French & other Europeans than she did talking to the English, she never came back to us to explain about the baths as she said she would.

Tour guide focused on the French speakers leaving English speakers waiting for over 30 mins to find out what was going on at the 1st 2 stops. No agenda. Told to pay to get into venues without knowing price or what the venue was. Only 1 vegetarian option at lunch. Coach back south had limited legroom

The guide was friendly and very informative. The trip could have explicitly said the prices for the stops and lunch as we thought this was included in the price. Considering they were not, this trip does err on the pricier side but it was a good trip to see more of Rhodes

Afterwards, you'll be able to sample the freshly extracted honey in a dedicated space exclusively available to National Geographic groups. Try other types of honey, too, including varieties like pine, thyme and erica. Plus, try the famous Melekouni, a traditional sweet snack from Rhodes. After the tasting, don a protective suit and take a look at an active apiary, examining the open hive with an experienced beekeeper. Surrounded by happy buzzing, you'll learn about important tools, such as frames, smokers and scrapers, as well as gain a practical understanding of how bee colonies are organized.
