Steep climb to the top but worth it. Was worried about the site due to other reviews I had read but was glad I visited this site, some early nineteenth century rebuilds but not enough to spoil the site as a whole, can be a bit tricky underfoot so some caution needed, amazing views from the top. Worth the trek and €12 entry. Bar not open outside the gate so would advise take a drink. A must if you are in rhodes

Embark your special vehicle so as to start your tour.Our tour begins with exploration of the ancient Acropolis of Rhodes. It is situated high on the summit of “Monte Smith” Hill, where remnants of the Temple of “Apollo” and the restored edifices of the Ancient Stadium and Odium dominate.In the Acropolis, we enter yet another atmosphere: High walls, deep moats, narrow cobbled streets lead the way to the medieval town of the Knights. Byzantine churches, Gothic rhythm Palace, Inns and Hospitals, and Mosques co-exist in the most traditional Greek setting touched little by modern hectic pace and way of life. One of the most impressive building within the Walls is the “Grand Masters’ Palace” it was restored during the Italian period of the island today housing a superb collection of original mosaics from Kos island dating from the Hellenistic to early Byzantine period. With a visit there, the wide Street of the Knights will capture your heart and mind with its simplicity.

Kos reached probably it's peak during the Roman and Hellinistic Period, and became a center of shops and commerce and a great port. Some fabulous villas with mosaics floors is a nice discover in the ancient Agora; If you visit the nice mountain Dikaios, ca. (847 m) , and the charming village Zia is very close to the mountain; a very romantic village with small narrow streets, many little shops, or visit the Monastery of Spondi; the panoramic views of the whole of Kos or also see the wonderful sunset from Zia, will be a super experience.

Would highly recommend this boat tour everything was superb from the pickup from our hotel to the stunning cove for swimming and snorkeling, then to the beautiful Symi, lovely coloured building in the harbour and stunning little side streets selling all sorts, enjoyed a lovely Greek meal in a traditional taverna highly recommended, then a couple of hours to wander around the stunning street's and harbour before we set off back to Rhodes whilst watching the stunning sun setting. Book directly with them to save a few euro's.

Rhodes Islanders are a great choice for transfers. Very courteous drivers, prompt service and good value. There were 7 of us so had a mini van and in these difficult times van was very clean, which is so important. Also if it hadn’t of been for their email regarding Greek air strike on the day we were due to fly we wouldn’t have known as Easyjet didn’t email us until much later. Thoroughly recommend and will definitely use again next year.
