Vassilis is the best guide for Rhodes. - Wow 🤩
What a wonderful introduction to Rhodes. Our guide Vassilis was exceptional. Five stars 🌟
As a small group of 4 we were able to see places not accessible to large groups and coaches.
The colours of the Mediterranean ranged from azure, cerulean, turquoise to tanzanite blue.
Lindos lived up to its name ❤️ and our delicious seafood lunch at a smaller village- Haraki Bay was both personable and secluded. We even tried an amazing Greek White wine of the varietal grape of Malagousia which we had never heard of. Definitely recommend it 👍
Traditional ceramics were also displayed.
Rhodes, we will return and Vassilis you will definitely be our guide!
Thank you 🤩

Son's Birthday trip - Mike made this trip truly special. My son's birthday was celebrated even though a medical emergency did not permit him to join the trip. Mike suggested we get a cake, and do a video call to wish him a Happy Birthday! I was truly touched by the level of care and meticulous planing on his part. We just showed up and he took us to see some amazing sites and enjoyed great food. Mike, you will always hold a special place in our hearts, Thank you!🙏

Mike made Rhodes island a memorable day! - Mike shared relevant history, culture, and architecture with our group throughout our day. He was in no rush with our group and made us feel relaxed and enjoy everything. We stopped in the old town, stopped at wonderful picturesque locations, ceramic shop (5 minutes), Lindos for shopping and Acropolis, and a relaxing lunch at a luxury hotel on the beach.

Exceptional Tour and guide - This tour was excellent from start to finish, George our excellent tour guide met us early with good communication beforehand, we were able to stay longer at some places and shorter at others, he was more than happy to fit in with what we wanted. Anyone considering a tour in Rhodes shouldn’t book with anyone else why pay for a ships tour or large group tour when for the same cost you can have your own personalised tour. After our lovely lunch on the seafront, George dropped us back at the cruise ship right in front of the gangway, excellent service.

Must do tour - Our experience with Mike was great, a very flexible tour where we were able to see all the highlights and more, a very comfortable Mercedes car, picked up right outside the boat. Mike is very knowledgeable about Rhodes and being a local adds to the experience. Being four pensioners it was the perfect tour for us.

Best of Rhodes - What a wonderful adventure around the island with our most excellent guide and driver George. George met us pier side when we disembarked the cruise ship and took us around Rhodes, explaining the history, and stopping at various historical sites. We then ventured to a true artisans shop where they make handmade pottery. The skill and craftsmanship was amazing. Further venturing west we found ourselves in Lindros Acropolis. It was quite a climb up to the top but worth it when we explored the ruins and history. George then brought us to a beach restaurant, not frequented by the throngs of tourists, where we indulged in authentic local Greek cuisine. We were back to our ship on time. Next time we’re in Rhodes we most definitely will use George as our guide, and recommend for others as well.

Best day trip not to be missed. - Worth the cost! The best day we spent in Rhodes. The driver Dimtri was excellent! The restaurant in Haraki Bay was one of the best meals we had. Absolutely amazing seafood. Plenty of stops and Dimtri was on hand to explain the history of the sights visited. Dimtri also had cold water waiting for us each time we returned to the air-conditioned mini-van. This was an amazing experience, one we will always remember.

Family trip to Rhodes - We felt rushed during our 6 hour tour and were dropped back at the cruise port 45 minutes early. Our guide could have taken us to some places near the terminal for the rest of the trip.
Our guide was not a licensed tour guide, so he did not come into the sites to tell about what we were seeing. It would have been better just going with the cruise line.
