Highlights
  • Rhodes - The drive starts with the exposure of the Medieval town where Byzantine, Ottoman and Italian architecture is witnessed. Within the Walls of the town, the Palace of the Grand Master is spotted. We continue to the entrance of the Old Harbour (Mandraki), where according to the tradition, the Colossus of Rhodes (one of the seven ancient world wonders) once stood.

Close to the entrance of the Old Port is the “Church of Annunciation of the Virgin Mary”, where today is the town’s cathedral church. The Church is styled as a 3 aisled gothic basilica with a wooden roof, amazing gothic wall paintings by Fotis Kontoglou and impressive chandeliers.

Driving towards the northernmost tip of Rhodes, we will see the Aquarium of Rhodes, which is the ideal place for those wishing to get acquainted with the marine wealth of the Aegean and the Eastern Mediterranean Sea.

An unparalleled experience with G.E.S. Travel Agency - personally tailored, luxurious and absolutely wonderful - G.E.S. Travel is a top notch company. We were lucky to meet George when we disembarked in Rhodes. There may be many drivers offering to provide a tour of the island — YOU MUST SEEK OUT HANDSOME GEORGE! He is a Rhodes native, speaks perfect English and knows exactly how to plan out any itinerary you desire. He also does an excellent job of explaining the history of the island in an interesting and conversational way. He and his daughter, who we had the opportunity to meet, are lovely and caring people who truly put customer experience above all. We had s wonderful day seeing the sites, stopping for photos (he’s a great photographer) and we ended our private tour at a lovely beach front restaurant. He had already arranged for us to have front row loungers and a personal waiter who escorted us to our chairs. It was an unforgettable experience indeed! I’m a New Yorker and have very discerning taste. I would not hesitate to use George and G.E.S. Travel again! In fact, he helped to arrange equally excellent, luxury tours for us in both Crete & Santorini. He will make certain that you’re satisfied and stays in touch during your entire experience.

Amazing Day - We had the most amazing day on our tour of Rhodos! Our driver Vaggelis was clearly passionate about Rhodes, the culture and he told us things we'd never know without a local guide. Van was lovely and modern and we spent the day in luxury travelling to Old town first, then onto some of the best view points ever looking over the North of the island. We continued to Lindos stopping at the most amazing traditional clay pottery. Everything made and painted by hand. It was beautiful. The owner very friendly sharing his home picked and roasted figs. I of course had to purchase some of the beautiful items 😊 St Pauls bay and Lindos are beautiful, but very busy.Vaggelis recommended a place for ice-cream and it didn't disappoint. We had a few hours at our own leisure before heading back to the van. When headed to Haraki where we had the most beautiful lunch at Agro. Fresh caught red snapper was beautiful. We swam in the bay before back to the van heading back towards the resort stopping off at Kalithea springs which was gorgeous. Honestly believe this is the best way to see the island and hear all about the history of this beautiful place. Would not hesitate to book again when we return to Rhodes. Evi was lovely and made the booking process easy, she genuinely cared we had a good day checking in with us afterwards. Lovely family run company ❤️
