TOUR PROGRAM

DAY 1 (FRIDAY): MARMARIS – RHODES CATAMARAN JOURNEY – PANORAMIC ISLAND TOUR – NEW & OLD TOWN TOURS – HOTEL CHECK-IN – GREEK NIGHT

We meet our valued guests at 08:00 at Marmaris Cruise Port, the departure point of Marmaris–Rhodes ferries (for guests requesting transfer from Marmaris, we meet at Eşref Girginç Park at 07:45), and complete passport procedures. After passport control, we board our catamaran departing at 09:15 and set off towards Rhodes with an approximately one-hour sea journey through the blue waters of the Aegean.

After arriving at Rhodes Port, we complete passport procedures and proceed to our waiting vehicle. Together with our guide, we begin discovering the island.

Our first stop is Mandraki Harbor, where the Colossus of Rhodes, considered one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, once stood. Here we take a short journey into the island’s history. Then we see Murat Reis Mosque, pass along the coast of Elli Beach famous for its turquoise sea, and reach the Aquarium Area.

On our route, we see Kritika (Cretan Quarter), where Turks exiled from Crete once settled, and then head to Monte Smith Hill, the best panoramic viewpoint. Here, the entire view of the New and Old Town unfolds beneath our feet. We take a short photo break accompanied by the breeze and capture the blue of the Aegean.

We continue our tour with the Ancient Acropolis of Rhodes. We see the remains of the Temple of Apollo and the Ancient Stadium, then move on to the Old Town. We get off our vehicle, enter the historic walls and begin our walking tour through the narrow stone streets.

In this timeless city, we closely explore Knights’ Street, Ahmet Ağa Library, Ottoman Madrasa, Baths, Grand Master’s Palace, Archaeological Museum, Mustafa Pasha Mosque, Clock Tower, Turkish School, Cem Sultan House and Ibrahim Pasha Mosque with our guide’s narration. Walking along Socrates Street, we take a short break at cafés under century-old trees and then reach Fountain Square (Hippocrates Square).

At the end of the day, we complete our tours and proceed to our hotel. After checking into our rooms, we take a short rest. (RHODES ACCOMMODATION – 4* ISLAND CITY HOTEL)

DAY 2 (SATURDAY): RHODES – KALLITHEA – TSAMBIKA – LINDOS TOUR – RETURN TO RHODES CENTER

After breakfast at our hotel, we start our Lindos Tour, included in the package, accompanied by our guide for a full day of enjoyable discoveries.

Our first stop is the Kallithea Region, which stands out with its architecture from the Italian period and natural beauty. This coastline, once famous for its thermal baths, also hosted some scenes of the film Zorba starring Anthony Quinn. After a short visit and photo break, we continue our journey.

Passing through Faliraki, one of Rhodes’ most well-known resort areas, we arrive at Tsambika Monastery, one of the sacred places in Greece visited by those wishing for a child. Located on a hill overlooking the endless blue of the Aegean, we listen to the story of the area with our guide and have the opportunity to photograph the impressive view.

Then the view of St. Paul’s Bay greets us. After viewing this enchanting bay panoramically, we arrive at Lindos Village, which has become the symbol of the island.

With its whitewashed houses, stone-paved narrow streets and unique architecture, Lindos is one of the most characteristic and most photographed spots of Rhodes. Here, we offer ample free time. Guests may enjoy the sea at the beach, take a pleasant break at street cafés, or shop at local stores. We also have our lunch in Lindos following our guide’s recommendations.

After free time, we return to Rhodes center and at the end of the day go back to our hotel to rest and freely experience the island’s evening atmosphere. (RHODES ACCOMMODATION – 4* ISLAND CITY HOTEL)

DAY 3 (SUNDAY): FREE TIME IN RHODES – TRANSFER TO PORT – RETURN TO MARMARIS

After breakfast at our hotel, we complete check-out procedures (you may use your room until check-out time and spend time at the hotel) and leave our luggage at the hotel. Then free time begins for you to enjoy Rhodes at your own pace. This day is specially reserved to experience the island without rush and revisit the places that impressed you most on the first day.

Guests who wish may once again stroll through the narrow stone streets of Rhodes Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and take plenty of photos around Knights’ Street and Hippocrates Square. Places visited on the first day but wished to be seen again can be explored more calmly and enjoyably during this free time.

Those who want to experience island culture through its flavors can plan a pleasant lunch at traditional Rhodes taverns with seafood, mezes and olive oil dishes of Greek cuisine. Taking a long coffee break at cafés, watching island life, or simply getting lost in the streets and feeling the daily life of Rhodes are among the best options for this day.
