4.9/5 ⭐Google 600+ Reviews | A+ Better Business Bureau

Overview
Rhodes, the largest of Greece's Dodecanese islands, is a captivating cruise destination renowned for its rich history, stunning beaches, and vibrant atmosphere. Dominated by the magnificent Medieval City, a UNESCO World Heritage site, Rhodes offers a unique blend of ancient wonders and modern allure. Its strategic location at the crossroads of Europe, Africa, and the Middle East has shaped a fascinating past, evident in its diverse architectural styles, from Hellenistic ruins to Ottoman mosques and Italian buildings.
A cruise to Rhodes promises an immersive experience, allowing visitors to step back in time within the fortified walls of its Old Town, explore pristine coastal landscapes, and savor the warm hospitality of the Greek islands. From the echoes of the Knights of St. John to the vibrant energy of its contemporary resorts, Rhodes offers a compelling journey through millennia of culture, natural beauty, and Mediterranean charm.
Step back in time by exploring the Medieval City of Rhodes, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the best-preserved medieval towns in Europe. Wander through its intricate network of cobblestone streets, admire the impressive Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes, and walk along its formidable city walls.
Tip: Wear comfortable walking shoes, as the Old Town involves extensive walking on uneven surfaces. Consider visiting early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid the biggest crowds.
Delve into the history of the Knights of St. John by visiting the Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes. This imposing fortress-palace is a focal point of the Medieval City, housing fascinating archaeological exhibits, ancient mosaics, and beautifully restored halls.
Tip: Allow at least 1-2 hours to explore the palace thoroughly. The views from its elevated position are also magnificent.
Walk along the famous Street of the Knights (Odos Ippoton), one of the most well-preserved medieval streets in Europe. Lined with the "Inns" (lodges) of the different "tongues" (nationalities) of the Knights, it offers a tangible connection to the island's chivalric past, leading directly to the Palace of the Grand Master.
Tip: Notice the unique architectural details of each Inn, reflecting the style of its respective country.
Take a break from historical exploration and relax at one of Rhodes' beautiful beaches. Elli Beach, located close to the main port and the city center, offers convenient access to crystal-clear waters, sunbeds, and beach bars.
Tip: If time allows and you prefer a quieter setting, consider a short taxi ride to a beach slightly further afield, such as those along the eastern coast for calm waters.
Ascend to the Acropolis of Rhodes, located on Monte Smith, offering panoramic views of the city, the Aegean Sea, and the ancient stadium, Odeon, and Temple of Apollo ruins. It’s a peaceful site that provides a different historical perspective of the island.
Tip: The Acropolis is a great spot for sunset views, and it's a relatively short and easy taxi ride from the Old Town.
Indulge in the delicious flavors of Rhodian cuisine. Enjoy fresh seafood, traditional Greek dishes like moussaka or souvlaki, and local specialties such as pitaroudia (chickpea fritters) or melekouni (honey-sesame bar). Many tavernas in the Old Town and Mandraki Harbor offer authentic dining experiences.
Tip: Look for tavernas that are slightly off the main tourist paths within the Old Town for more authentic dishes and a quieter ambiance.
