Tour of Rhodes Island
Your adventure begins with a hotel pickup at 9 am from your accommodation in Rhodes, leading you to the most iconic monuments and sights on the largest island of the Dodecanese chain.
The initial destination is Kritinia Castle, a medieval stronghold perched atop Mount Attavyros. As we walk through the remains of this fortress, hear fascinating tales of the numerous battles fought here against the incursions of the Turks and Venetians.
After taking in the stunning panoramas of the Aegean Sea from Kritinia Castle, we will make our way to the quaint village of Embona. Here, guests will gain insight into the traditional practices of olive oil and wine production on the island. A delightful tasting of local wine and olive oil will allow you to savor the essence of Rhodes.
The adventure continues with a visit to Profitis Ilias Mountain, where you can connect with Rhodes' remarkable landscapes. We will explore the best vantage points, providing ample opportunities for memorable photographs before boarding our minibus again to visit the Byzantine Church of St. Nicholas in Fountouklis.
Midway through the day, you'll have a leisure hour to enjoy lunch at a local tavern. Once refreshed, we will resume our journey by visiting Kallithea Springs, the crown jewel of the tour!
The exciting day will conclude with a return to your hotel around 5 pm.
