The small castle constructed by the Byzantines is one of the most important monuments of historic influence.

Fantastic trip at a great price
cal667, 27-10-2022
Both the driver and tour guide were excellent. This is a great way to see some highlights of the island, and at a very reasonable price!
The lunch was tasty, however I think the pricing may be set specifically for coach trip passengers (other groups arrived here while we were there, so they must have an agreement in place for the operators). As another reviewer said, there are other restaurants close by that are cheaper. I opted to stay with the group as I thought it would be nice to chat to fellow passengers but if I was to do the trip again, I would probably go elsewhere to eat.

The only negative thing I could say was about some irritating fellow passengers who insisted on imposing some truly awful opinions on anyone that would listen! I guess this can't be helped
Well-organized daytrip

We have enjoyed the trip and felt that it was worth the value. Everything concerning the timing (time to spend at each location, departure time announcements) was well-organized, we had enough time to explore everything. The guide left a good impression - professional and just about right amount of interesting stories and facts. Something to consider - it is understandable that the tour company has an agreement with one of the restaurants in the town where the lunch break takes place, but we felt that the announced prices for the courses were quite high, so we just went to one of the other places in that area and had a good meal twice cheaper.
Very good day

Very good trip.excellent guide who gave just enough information to keep interest going. A little rushed at Kamiros but minor point.
Very interesting

Maria was a perfect introducer to Rhodes, it’s culture and nature. Too bad most of the butterflies have disappeared in a recent fire

Guide excellent. Lot of walking on rough ground. Butterflies nothing special. Archaeological site and monastery interesting. Lunch disappointing.
