Seven Springs was a challenging walk / scramble from the coach, not good for anyone not closely related to a mountain goat, but the springs are pretty. The tunnel to the (man made) waterfall is so narrow that I had to turn my shoulders, and the water deeper than predicted so I got a wet undercarriage. The waterfall not so impressive. Lindos is glorious and worth the walk from the bus drop off at the top of the hill - though it is worth knowing that a shuttle bus runs between the car park and the square in the village for 50 cents each way. The narrow streets are full of things to see and plenty of choice of food and drink places, many on upper terraces with good views. We found prices on a par with other places on the island, no premium for the attractiveness of the village. No guide on our excursion, but a knowledgeable driver with good English who was extremely helpful. Good value excursion.

We booked the private trip to Lindos directly with the company which was a shot walk from the hotel. Wow, what a day - absolutely recommend! The air conditioned mini van was very high quality which made for a really comfortable trip on the hottest day of our holiday. It was who Manos made this excursion so great, his knowledge of the history of the island was really interesting and his passion for Rhodes was clear! We went to Lindos first and were able to stop on the way for some great photo opportunities. We had a good 3 hours in Lindos do wander round and choose what we wanted to do. On the way back we asked if we could stop somewhere different as we had visited Rhodes old town often on our own. Manos took us to Ostria Beach which was just lovely, we stopped at a little bar and had cocktails, the perfect way to spend a sunny Sunday. We all had a great day and have no hesitation recommending the company. When we come back to Rhodes, and we will, we will absolutely book more trips with Manosgoing!

I booked a short private tour with George, it was an incredible experience! He showed me all the must-see landmarks and some hidden jewels in the island. Besides, his restaurant recommendations were brilliant. In Rhodes it’s really easy to end up in tourist traps, but thanks to George I felt like a local.

I never write reviews hopefully on this occasion its a must! Visiting Rhodes for the 1st I wanted to ensure my children would remember it, so I book the deluxe sailing with sigma travel with a lovely lady !! I was amazed..... we were collect on time by Gianni who was extremely kind and understanding to my very tired 5yr and 13yr whom dropped this to the port and introduced us to the captain Gianni!! Captain Gianni was truly amazing from the very start to finish! I can not recommend a nicer captain to sail the beaches of Rhodes - my children adored him - he explained everything to my children and even showed them how to sail his boat!! Talented captain and a lovely singer! He has a fantastic team of board who were very attentive and generous with their time- my children loved the fruit salad and lunch. Thank you for such a lovely adventure!! My and children can’t wait to come back and sail with him again. Thank you Sigma travel!!xx
