Wow! What a great day! - We had a wonderful time with our guide Nikos in Rhodes! We had no idea what a lovely island with such great people it was. We have had many great days, but this was probably the best! Nikos was so warm and friendly and tailored our tour to our group! We had one person with walking difficulties and he totally worked with us to make it a wonderful day. Besides the normal ancient sites (which were amazing with Nikos’ insights) we were able to go to a little out of town pottery shop and watch the owner make a beautiful vase! The shop was full of beautiful works of art all made on site! We finished with a fantastic Greek meal - best food ever! Would highly recommend!! A day to remember! ❤️

Knoledgeable, well acquained with Rhodes. My daughter and I fast felt as if we were given a tour of Rhodes by a dear friend who happened to have lived there for most of his lidfe. Five stars are not enough to rate him.

Daytrip to Butterfly valley and Lindos - We booked a day trip (5 hours) via Rhodes Taxi Tours. The taxi picked us up directly in front of the hotel. Our driver was Nicholas. He was a very friendly and professional driver! He was able to tell us about the history and sights of the island. He was flexible as a driver. It was easy for us to reach the sights we wanted and the driver knew well what to do to save time. We highly recommend Rhodes Taxi tours and special thanks to Nicholas. This trip was one of the highlights of our holiday and exceeded our expectations.

Fabulous day touring Rhodes with Nikos - Had a brilliant day touring Rhodes with our driver Nikos. Nikos was polite, punctual, and passionate about Rhodes. He was very flexible regarding our itinerary for the day, and took us to Lindos and the Acropolis, beach for swimming, fabulous Greek Taverna by the seaside for lunch, pottery workshop and a 1760 monastery.

Amazing Day in Rhodes! - What an amazing day we had with Aga for our private tour of the island of Rhodes! We saw all of the highlights of the island in an unhurried itinerary. Aga knew we love photography and took us to some amazing spots to capture great photos! Thanks to Aga we learned so much about the island of Rhodes and it’s diverse history. Lastly we had the best meal of our trip at a seaside taverna. Delish!! Thanks to Aga, Ellie and the entire Rhodes Taxi Tours team for a great day. Highly recommend!!

Way better than group tours! - Can’t recommend this enough. So much better than tour bus and group tours. Private car can stop where buses cannot for pictures. Drivers know off the beaten path pottery shops, suggests the best spots and things to look at during free time and even had lunch arrangements at a smaller local spot. We’ll worth the extra cost when compared to group tours.

Best day in Rhodes - Our tour guide, George, was fantastic. He answered all of our questions and showed us the best of Rhodes. It was so nice to be driven around in an air conditioned vehicle with just our group! I highly recommend this tour.
