We purchased the tour through Telia Tours. We did the Lindos tour in early November 2021 from the Norwegian Jade. 6 people in our group plus our best guide ever Giorgos! Visited Lindos village ,had a traditional lunch (own exp), loved Embonas wines, my husband purchased a box of their best red. Giorgos took good care of us, he is an excellent guide, his English and knowledge of Rhodes were both outstanding, saying nothing of his sense of humor. Take this tour and enjoy!

We did the day trip in September. The weather was great and Lindos is a cute little town, framed by the sea and worth a visit. The tour was well organized and our guide could give great insights. All expectations where at least met. :-)
Response from Host
