Rhodes Town Cruises, Rhodes

View Itineraries

Basking in more hours of sunshine than any other Greek island, Rhodes is loved for its fascinating past, not to mention its glittering sandy beaches.

  • Wander your way around the pretty village of Lindos. The architecture here is a fusion of Gothic, Byzantine, Greek and Middle Eastern, and the most famous monument is probably the ancient acropolis.
  • Spend some time getting to know Rhodes Town. Go yacht-spotting in Mandraki harbour and venture inside the ancient walls of the citadel to discover the Medieval city left behind by the Knights of St John.
  • Take your pick from banana boat rides, parasailing and jet-skiing on the lively Falaraki Beach. Alternatively, just enjoy the music coming from the beachside bars as you laze the day away.
  • Get snapping at Filerimos Hill. Just 12 kilometres outside Rhodes Town, this elevated area of land offers up great views of the countryside and a selection of historical buildings, including a Byzantine Church.

Lindos & Acropolis

This tour kicks off with a visit to what is arguably one of the most beautiful villages in Greece – Lindos. Its well-preserved acropolis and UNESCO status make this a must-do excursion. As you wander through the quaint, quiet streets, it’s impossible not to fall in love with the laid-back pace of life and the postcard-prettiness that the village is famous for. Narrow lanes are lined with little white stone houses, which will have you reaching for your camera every few steps. And it’s a great place to explore, with the famous acropolis boasting treasures like the Temple of Athena, the Byzantine church and the Hellenistic stoa, plus evidence of fortification by the St John’s Knights. Climb the Hellenistic staircase to the top of the acropolis and you’ll be blown away by the panoramic views of the coast and Lindos town. This tour has got it all - incredible architecture and breathtaking views. What more could you ask for?
