Fantastic way to see the island in a day - The guide was wonderful and knowledgeable about everything to do with the island. Not just the old history but what is happening now. We got to find out about the tulips that grow there and history of Lindos. The bus its self was driven by an excellent driver. I don’t normally do tours like this but so comfortable. We got ample time in each place. The old ancient town was great as well, not very busy and interesting to hear about that. Oh, and the stop at the honey and olive oil won’t disappoint. I wanted to buy so much but I’m Aus and it was all euros.

Seen it, done it & heard all about Rhodes - Katrina was a brilliant guide. She put an enormous amount of effort & herself into making the trip such an enjoyable & educational day for us all. She could not have done more. My wife & I want to thank her so much. Nikolas our driver made us all enjoy the ride as well. Super day all round

Great experience for ultimate lookaround! - Was on this tour with my girlfriend, first time in Rhodos so made the best of it!
Was a full day tour in a buss with AC, nice cool breeze and very clean. With a informative guide, Katerina - very witty and helpful. With helping hand of Mario that made us feel very safe on the roads, they took us around to look at nice lookout points for photos and assisted in any matter that came up! Also got to taste the best moussaka on the island for our lunch stop.
Can totally recommend this trip for anyone who has a Friday to spare!

A great way to see Rhodes! - We booked this tour just before arriving in Rhodes and are so glad we did. Katarina was our guide and gave us so much information on the history and present day of the island. She was extremely knowledgeable and made each place we visited very interesting. Rhodes is so much more than just the Old Town. We would HIGHLY recommend this tour as part of any visit to Rhodes. And big shout out to Nicolas our driver!

Very recommended - We really enjoyed the tour. Katarina, the guide, was very knowledgeable and nice. We really enjoyed the information she gave us along the tour about Rhodes - history, geography, geology, etc. the places were beautiful and we had enough time to explore on our own. Katarina was great, and we recommend taking this tour if you want to get a deeper experience of Rhodes - to see how people live, what the villages look like, and to get more information.
We didn’t think the olive oil and honey tasting was a must, and maybe it wasn’t necessary to spend the time traveling there specifically, maybe it was better to have a bit more time in beautiful Lindos instead. But we still enjoyed the trip a lot.

Full day tour around... - Full day tour around island. Our guide, Margarita was amazing. She had so much knowledge and was very lovely. There is a lot of time in the bus travelling, but you do get to see a lot of the island. Not really a stop in Monolithos, except for lunch where you really only have the chosen taverna to get something to eat. Otherwise, highly recommend. Very good price. Extra €10 to go into acropolis at Kamiros
