   Mandraki Harbour

   15 min - Mandraki is one of the three harbours in Rhodes. It is famous, because it is believed that the great statue of Colossus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, once stood at the harbour entrance. Today the deer sculptures at the entrance, the St. Nicholas Fortress and a number of medieval windmills create a charming view of the harbour.

   Lindos

   2 hr - Lindos is one of the most impressive archaeological sites not only in Greece but also in the world. It has traces of different civilizations. Ancient Greek, Roman, Byzantine traditions blend here with the Medieval heritage of knights of the Order of Saint John. The visit to Lindos is like time travel via centuries and civilizations! If you go there, you will be delighted not only by the history but also by divine beauty. Take your time strolling lovely narrow streets of the village abundantly decorated with flowers, fruit trees, oriental tiles and small fountains. You will be impressed by incredible view of the harbours. The Acropolis of Lindos is on top of 116m cliff. For the Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Knights of St John and Turks it was a wonderful strategic position. You can walk up the stairs and visit it or explore the village and its cosy bays.

   Stop 3

   30 min - Visit the traditional Greek ceramic factory and see how a piece of clay turns into a piece of art. First the father and the son make pottery, then the mother paints it. The family of hard working owners will invite you into their store to present a great variety of olive oil and honey of their own production. Enjoy free tasting of the best local products.

   Theologos

   1 hr - Wine tasting one of the best ways to really explore Greece in general and Rhodes in particular. Doing that through wines gets really interesting as you’re introduced to the local grape varieties that give local wines their unique colour and flavour. Wine is just as much a part of Greek culture as the temples of ancient Greece. Just take a look at all those statues of Dionysus, the god of wine and pleasure who made it his mission to spread the gift of vine cultivation, and Homer’s tales of Greek soldiers drinking locally made wine on the eve of the Siege of Troy and you’ll get it!

5. 5
   Medieval City

   2 hr - The medieval town of Rhodes belongs to the World Heritage, it is under protection of UNESCO and considered one of the few best preserved medieval cities in Europe. Let yourself stroll the narrow streets of the Old City. You will fall in love with their multiple character! You will find Turkish Mosques and Jewish Synagogues, ancient library, bathhouses, and lots of shops. All these apart from charming medieval spirit produces unique atmosphere which will not leave you indifferent. You will have enough free time in the Old Town after the tour, you can spend it exploring, shopping, dinning and come back to your ship moored in 5 min by foot or we can take you there or to your hotel if you come to Rhodes by air.
