Echoes of Rhodes/Island Tour

Whether you are a short-stay traveller in Rhodes or you are just
looking for the best excursion to discover all Rhodes Island has to in a
day then the Full Day Highlights of S Tours is the prime choice. Read
here the stops and the exciting schedule of this tour.

First stop
at the romantic Kallithea Springs, the beautiful seaside natural spa
built by the Italians. Then we drive through the Mandraki Harbour
(Rhodes city) with the impressive buildings and the imposing Medieval
Old Town, and up to the Ancient Stadium beneath the temple of Apollo,
the Acropolis of Rhodes, with a short stop for breath-taking panoramic
photos.  

Driving along the west coast, we continue the tour at
the ancient city of Kamerios. Houses with atriums, temples, alters and
bases of statues are only a few of the remnants of this little “Pompeii”
of Rhodes. Kameiros along with Lindos and Ialyssos were the first
cities on the island.

Afterwards we arrive at Apollona village
where we will visit a small local shop for a tasting of the traditional
spirit "Souma" and a visit to the museum (optional). Then, you’ll have
some free time for lunch at a traditional Greek tavern, where you can
try the amazing Greek "mezedes". As you are fully energised we move up
the mountain of Profitis Ilias for a coffee break and a photo stop. Next
stop is the visit to the Fountoukli monastery, one of the most famous
monasteries of Rhodes. The tour will end at St Nektarios monastery’s
parking lot.
