Dit kun je verwachten

West-Rhodos kent een unieke ruige schoonheid. Dit deel van het eiland is bezaaid met slaperige dorpen, met dennenbomen begroeide bergen en eeuwenoude ruïnes. Met deze trip kom je langs de top-highlights van het eiland. Zo bezoek je de oude stad Kamiros en de bergdorpen Embona en Siana. En je stopt bij de Vlindervallei, waar honderden Callimorpha vlinders leven. Nicholas, een van onze deskundige lokale gidsen, zegt: "In Kamiros vang je een glimp op van het dagelijks leven van de oude bewoners. Ook zie je hoe ingenieus de mensen waren die het bouwden. Het watervoorzieningssysteem, met zijn complexe netwerk van cisternen en aquaducten, is goed bewaard gebleven en heel interessant.”

Eerst stop je bij de Vlindervallei - een natuurpark waar honderden van deze vriendelijke, fladderende insecten leven. Je wandelt over de houten looppaden die genoeg schaduw bieden. En bij de natuurlijke zwembaden kom je tot rust door het kalme druppelende water. Je vindt er een overvloed aan kleurrijke insecten. Met een beetje geluk zie je ze van heel dichtbij en komen ze op je zitten. Behalve de vlinders vind je in het park een grote verscheidenheid aan andere flora en fauna, waaronder veel wilde bloemen en vogels.

Daarna ga je terug in de tijd als je het oude Kamiros bezoekt. Je loopt over de goed bewaarde straten en ziet de overblijfselen van de agora en de Akropolis. Het geeft je een goede indruk hoe de bewoners in de vijfde eeuw voor Christus hun dagelijks leven leidden. Je krijgt bij binnenkomst een app die laat zien hoe de stad er in 3D zou hebben uitgezien. Vervolgens heb je vrije tijd om te lunchen in Embona - het hoogst gelegen dorp op Rhodos - en je bezoekt het bergdorp Siana.

Pretty Orthodox churches, an olive oil mill, a winery in Siana and a typical local lunch are on the menu in this adults-only tour.

Pirates of Rhodes Family-friendly Themed Cruise
Excursions & day trips

Pirates of Rhodes Family-friendly Themed Cruise

Pirate Tim and Calypso the Parrot need your help to find their lost treasure. But first you need to be fully trained in all the skills you need to become a pirate. Eleni, one of our local crew members, says, 'Rhodes was once a hugely important trading post in the Mediterranean region, and pirates were a real threat to this success. The island's governors directed the Rhodes Navy to spend all their time policing the waters nearby in order to protect the ships carrying valuable goods such as salt and olive oil.' You'll join our plucky crew in search of the booty, and along the way everyone will get into the pirate spirit with some help from the pirate team on the boat. There'll be lots of fun activities for everyone to get involved with. For our little pirate crew, there'll be face painting and lots of pirate-themed games to play and for the older pirate crew, there'll be some pirate challenges to join in with. And no pirate adventure would be complete without a treasure map and clues to follow.Eleni says, 'Set sail with the pirates for a fun cruise with plenty to keep the kids occupied while the grown-ups can relax and admire the scenery. We'll stop at some lovely spots so all the pirates can cool off with a swim in the sea.' Fruit is included, plus there's a bar on board where you can buy drinks and snacks, in case all the excitement makes you hungry. This pirate cruise is all about swashbuckling fun for the whole family to enjoy.
