Kritinia Castle
Captivating history and stunning beauty intertwine in Kritinia. Nestled atop a 131-meter hill, the Castle of Kritinia overlooks the picturesque village below. Founded by intrepid families seeking refuge from Crete after it fell to the Turks, Kritinia, or "New Crete," is a testament to resilience and the enduring human spirit. Originally situated on the coast, the village was relocated to higher ground to protect its inhabitants from the ever-looming menace of pirate raids. Lose yourself in the charm of Kritinia, where the past and present meld in harmonious splendor.

Embonas
Explore the picturesque village of Embonas, renowned for crafting some of the finest wines Greece has to offer. Tucked away in the heart of the countryside and a well-kept secret from bustling city life, this hidden gem remains beautifully preserved, untouched by the trappings of modern tourism. Immerse yourself in authentic Greek culture as you encounter local inhabitants proudly donning traditional attire and keeping their rich folklore alive. Marvel at the charming rural Greek architecture exemplified by the village's stunning homes. It may feel like stepping onto a movie set, but rest assured, this idyllic experience is genuinely authentic.

Attaviros
Attaviros Mountain, a hidden gem nestled away from the bustling crowds, offering a serene retreat for those looking to explore beyond the beach and turquoise waters. Standing tall as Rhodes' highest peak, Attaviros soars to a majestic 1,215 meters above sea level, inviting you to reach for the clouds and unlock the mysteries of the ancient temple perched on its summit.Embraced by the picturesque villages of Embonas, Sianna, and Agios Isidoros, the verdant green slopes of Attaviros paint a captivating scene, as they occasionally disappear behind a veil of clouds or bask in the golden embrace of the sun. During the winter months, a delicate dusting of snow may grace the mountaintop, adding to its ethereal beauty, though it rarely lingers for more than a day. Experience the awe-inspiring panoramic views from the summit, as you overlook the charming villages dotting the landscape below. Attaviros Mountain has become a timeless symbol of Rhodes Island, waiting to share its natural splendor with intrepid explorers seeking a truly unique and unforgettable experience.
We spent a beautiful week in Rhodes, Greece and decided to book this tour. Dimitris, our personal, very professional and extremely knowledgeable guide took us to all the most beautiful and interesting places in Rhodes. He told us much about its history and culture. If we were ever to return to Rhodes we would most assuredly use his services again. Our experience with her has made it the trip of a lifetime.

We booked this tour online through Viator. To be honest, we didn’t expect much from a small Greek isle but I can assure you that it’s not small and that our 1-day tour was breathtaking. We were 7 persons, 6 adults & 1 kid, and had a very comfortable minivan just for us. Our guide and driver Georgos made sure to give us all the interesting facts and stories about Rhodes history. His sense of humous was outstanding. He took us to the most beautiful places including mountain village famous for its wineries. We had wine tasting and loved Greek wines! We miss Rhodes and plan to revisit. In few words, I highly recommend this tour operator, very trustworthy, reliable, efficient saying nothing of our favourite guide Georgos

The initial group tour was cancelled, as the season was coming to a close and there was an insufficient number of tourists. I was rather disappointed, as it was my last full day in Rhodes.
To my great pleasure, somebody called Alexis came to my rescue. He promptly organised a private tour for me, and came himself to act as a guide.
And what a wonderful trip it was. Alexis took me to three great places of cultural, historical and spiritual interest, combined with views of perfect natural beauty. He demonstrated a great love for his country, true Greek hospitality and human warmth. He made the journey flexible for me, taking care of my comfort and safety.
The trip is suitable practically for everybody; there is one place with climbing, but it is not too challenging (just wear sensible shoes). The car was roomy and air conditioned, so 7 hour journey was pleasant and comfortable.
I know Alexis was prepared to give me more time, but I decided to see more next year instead!
I have a pleasure of recommending Alexis and thus tour to everybody who would like to have a truly perfect day.

Alexis was our tour guide and he was exceptional. His energy levels stayed high from start to finish and he was a wealth of knowledge on the history of Rhodes while maintaining light heartedness and humour throughout the day.
