Reviews

Great Private Tour
RCboy99, 05-11-2022
Nicholas and his team were very well organized from the start when we were looking for a one day tour of Rhodes. We are very happy that we booked with Nicholas, We were a group of 4, he met us at the pier, introduced us to Manuel, our driver and guide for the day. Our car was a Mercedes and Manuel was extremely professional, polite and experienced, he knew the local history and the island. Manual took us to the areas where we could avoid the crowds as much as possible, thereby, saving time and any line ups. Highlights are Anthony Quinn Bay, the Arcropolis in Lindos and the old town. He took us to a local restaurant for a seafood lunch. Parts of the tour, Manual would drop us off and we met him at a agreed time and meeting spot to continue on the tour. We were well aware that entrance fees to certain attractions were to be paid us. Towards the end of the day, Nicholas called Manuel on the cell phone to check up on us and asked if there were any issues. To conclude the tour, we were dropped off at one of the entrances to Old Town, where we walked around before heading back to our cruise ship. Overall, we would give this a 5 start rating.

Nicholas was very easy to communicate with and was flexible even with our cruise changing port dates. Pick up was right at the cruise terminal and Michael was a wonderful driver and tour guide. Very knowledgable, we saw so much more of Rhodes then we anticipated. He provided a great comfort/coffee stop for us and found us a wonderful local lunch spot in Stegnas where we were the only tourists. He also took us to a large market to purchase duffle bags for our souvenirs. Customizations like that is what we really appreciated. The Mercedes was comfortable and the four of us ended up having an amazing day. I would not hesitate to book with them and look forward to going back to Rhodes and hiring this excellent company.
