All went smooth with our pickup Billy did a fantastic job especially in the rain he went out to run up a few lost girls in the rain . The only problem was the girls in the back of the van couldn’t hear him very well
Demetrias was fantastic , very friendly and informative, was easy to communicate with and let us stop many places along our route - also took us to a wonderful seaside cafe ! we enjoyed our tour very much ! Would highly recommend!
Wonderful tour and driver! Very comfortable. 5 hours was not enough time if you also want to swim somewhere, we extended by 2 hours and it was 100% worth it. A late lunch at Marica beach club and swim was fantastic!
Great tour provided in. The most comfortable way! Highly recommend this private tour of some beautiful spots in Rhodes. We had couple of people with limited mobility and they were so kind and helpful to everyone on the tour. Because our vehicle was too big we missed a couple on the itinerary. It would have been nice to know beforehand. Nevertheless, Mike and Vasilis were super kind and welcoming guides for us in Rhodes. We will certainly be back and we recommend using them!
Mike was great! So knowledgeable! Nice & cool vehicle. Saw a variety of beautiful sites around Rhodes.
Very good very nice transport was brilliant also
Probably our favorite island in our cruise and tour of the Greek Isles, even though this was Turkey! Inan was our tour guide and he was very good. Very passionate and informative about his homeland.; very thoughtful, kind, and helpful during the tour. Very accommodating of my wife's limited walking distances and her use of a portable motorized scooter during the tour. The only caution I would have for travelers is that he has a few stops which were somewhat of a surprise at local shops. Leather goods ( high fashion leather jackets), turkish carpets and pottery, all of which are locally produced, high quality / unique products but relatively expensive to consider for purchase. Still, there wasn't a lot of pressure to purchase and we can't fault him for wanting to provide an opportunity for his tour customers to support the local and rural families who produce these goods. (We did wind up purchasing a few of these items.) Just a heads up with a bit more clarity / transparency as to what we were walking into would have been appreciated. Otherwise, a fantastic tour and tour guide. THANK YOU, Inan!
Best way to tour Rhodes when limited port time. Vasilli and his family operate the tour and it was fantastic! He took us to places and gave the background as we made to all parts of the island. If you want an authentic Greek experience don’t hesitate to book this tour. Much better than cruise tours
Mike was a great guide with so much knowledge about and enthusiasm about Rhodes. He showed us an authentic and delicious lunch at an out of the tourism areas.
Great tour and a fantastic host. We enjoyed everything ! Got to see lots of things in the island i. Lots of different areas which was amazing wonderful.
We hired Michael for an afternoon tour and we’re very pleased. His English is good, very knowledgeable and enjoyable to be with.
We had a wonderful time. The guide as extremely informative and receptive to our needs. We even got to make few stops not in the itinerary.
Out Easy and Lazy Private Tour with Mike Vasilas was terrific. He knows Rhodes inside and out from study and personal experience. In addition to the sights of the old city, he took us up a mountain for a breathtaking view of the coastline. We had lunch at a nice seaside restaurant and a swim in the sea. It was everything we could have asked for and more.
Exploring Rhodes with local guide Mike was an unforgettable experience. He brought the island’s history and charm to life — from the medieval magic of Old Town and vibrant vibes of Rhodes Town to the sun-soaked beauty of Faliraki Beach and elegant Kallithea Springs. Mike’s deep knowledge and personal insights made every stop special. Traveling with him was like discovering Rhodes through the eyes of someone who truly loves it.
Thank you for an awesome day. George picked us up & gave us a wonderful day exploring Rhodes, George was friendly and knowledgeable, he dropped us to a hidden gem for lunch (Camara Beachside Memories) the food was Devine. Highly recommend spending the day with George
We had a simply wonderful day touring with George today. He was knowledgeable and interesting about Rhodes and its colourful history. We had plenty of time to sightsee at the various stops like the medieval city, the acropolis and then enjoyed at amazing lunch at Camara with a swim at the beach. It was a picture perfect day and I can’t wait to come back.
This tour is perfect for travelers who want to get to know the city without the pressure of staying at a particular sightseeing attraction for a long time.
Excellent tour with knowledgable, friendly local guides Dimitrius and Yonnis. They will customize the trip to your request. We did some shopping, city tour, knight museum and ended on the beach at a fabulous beach club and restaurant. Price for beach club was not included in the tour, but everything was affordable and worth every penny. Our guides prearranged everything and we were taken care of like royalty. This ended up being our favorite stop off the cruise ship so far. Plenty of photo opportunities. Highly recommend!!!
Great tour. We saw many beautiful scenes and a church. I would highly recommend the tour. Really enjoyed our tour with one exception. I stumbled over a rock in the dirt/rocky parking lot while looking at the view. I was bleeding from my knee, lip and toe and other minor scratches. The fall was an accident. My only complainant was the driver/tour guide did not have a small first aid kit with him. Luckily, I had tissue to press on my injuries. He did try to get an antibiotic liquid, but bottle was empty. No bandages. He did get some cold-water bottles at that time. I continued to bleed til the end of our tour. I was unable to walk through the medieval city, which was not part of our tour, but other family members really enjoyed it. Rhodes is a beautiful island with interesting history - one of our favorite islands to visit.
As a disabled traveler I am always a little apprehensive but from booking the contact was prompt and answered my questions on accessibility I was put at ease instantly. Communication for pick up times was excellent, we chose the Medival tour which Mike was our guide. This guy has the knowledge in abundance very clear and answered our questions we visited many sites and Mike mad sure I was comfortable with the surroundings and assisted if needed. I found this tour very accessible for me I am able to walk with a stick and have use of manual wheelchair Mike was excellent going above and beyond. Very professional and attentive we had a great morning and ended our tour at the beach with a spot of lunch at the monkey beach bar excellent morning thanks so very much Mike. 5⭐️💫
Vasili was a wonderful tour guide. It is obvious he loves his island! My husband uses a cane, and our adult son is on the autistic spectrum. Vasili was so accommodating. Everything worked out perfectly. He was waiting for us at the gangway, so we wouldn't have to walk too far. He got us close to everything we wanted to see. He also took us to a wonderful little restaurant where we enjoyed true Greek cuisine! Our day with Vasili was one of our top experiences during our trip!
Billy gave us a wonderful overview of Rhodes. We saw the site of the Collosus at the entrance to the port. We walked through the walled old town, saw the great views down to the beautiful beaches. When we asked for a lunch break Billy brought us to his small village for incredibly tasty Greek food. Gyros, souvlaki a Greek salad. Wonderful! Use this firm with confidence!
Thoroughly enjoyed our tour and our guide Billy was excellent! Very fun and knowledgeable of the area. Took us off the beaten path to the best sites and views of the island.
We loved Mike! Very nice and humorous man. He was willing and capabele to answer all our questions, which were a lot ;-) And he is a perfect storyteller, meanwhile showing us all the nice places of Rhodos.
Our driver was an excellent tour guide and very knowledgeable about Rhodes area and history. He suggested many places to visit which were all great choices. The food he suggested was excellent with a real feel for Greek culture. I cannot say enough about his knowledge and expertise!
We had been to Rhodes before so we wanted a more relaxed tour when we arrived by cruise for the day. I had contacted Mike & his communication was prompt & efficient. Mike met us at the port & worked out an itinerary for us so we could have a relaxed day & see some of Rhodes that we hadn’t seen before. I quickly suggested we head off to the old town for some photos before it got busy & told us the history as we walked around without the crowds. He took us to many places giving us lots of facts and plenty of photo opportunities. We loved Anthony Quinn beach & Lindos was spectacular, Mike even gave us a lunch suggestion in Lindos which was some of the best food we had. We highly recommend Rhodes Leisure & would definitely go with them again.
Yannis made our day. Nice Clean AC Mercedes van. This truly was what we were looking for. He took us to the top sites in Rhodes. Then drive us to nice Afontou beach with free chairs. He arranged a fresh cooked fish lunch from the beautiful restaurant across the street. We picked out the grouper which the restaurant has spear fisherman bring in fresh daily. AVANTIS i believe is the name of the restaurant. It was one of the best meals we had. Yannis was very knowledgeable of the Island and we had a fantastic day.
This was a great way to see the island & not feel rushed. Balcilio was a great guide & took us to to beautiful photo spots & finished with relaxing at the beautiful Tulum beach & restaurant club. Highly recommend!
Visiting butterfly valley with grandkids ,who were in awe of their experience there,other family members included. Big shout to George who was a great guide/ historian.
With several young kids in tow, a private tour was much easier and more pleasant than trying to keep up with a big excursion tour group. Communication with the tour operator was easy, our driver was awesome. Would highly recommend!
We had a fantastic day! Yanis was our guide. He was on time with a beautiful clean Mercedes sprinter Van for the 8 of us. We were comfortable and he was a safe and great driver. He shared with us historical sites as he drove around and would stop at key places for us to take pictures of the high points overlooking the Mediterranean and the Aegean Sea. We had a great day! Thank you so much. We loved Rhodes. A beautiful island to see. Some nice shops to find that perfect shirt or souvenir as well!!
Mike was so great at responding and communicating with us ahead of time for our tour. He made sure we got with our driver very smoothly. Our driver and guide, George, was absolutely wonderful! He was very nice and knew a lot about the history and locations we went to. My mother has a knee issue, so walking is very tough. This tour was perfect for her. George was so helpful and there was very little walking for long periods of time. There is an option to go to the beach. Make sure you pack properly! We were not aware that was an option so we did not have our swimsuits. Highly recommend!!!
This was an incredible tour of Rhodes. George was our amazing tour guide who went above and beyond for me and the entire family. Super knowledgeable of the area and very patient with us as we toured the major sites. This is a must do experience for anybody visiting Rhodes. Thanks again George!
Wonderful way to see Rhodes! Vasili was great and took us to the main points of history. Finished the day at the beautiful beach and had a wonderful lunch at Tulum. Highly recommend!
Any incredible day in Rhodes. This is a must do tour for anybody visiting. George was an amazing guide who took us through the city and explained things with great detail. Extremely knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. I would highly recommend this tour to anybody looking to have an incredible and relaxing tour of Rhodes. My spouse, kids and elderly parents all loved it. What an amazing island!
I would recommend Mike for any tour guide. He was just sensational. We were 45 minutes late to the meeting point. Not only he told us to not to worry, he also made that time. He was very knowledgeable about Santorini!
We had a wonderful time. The pick up went very smoothly. We got to see a lot of sites that were explained thoroughly. Our guide took us to a great place for lunch and we were able to spend 1 1/2 hours at a lovely beach.
Wonderful tour, with a fabulous guide, he was very knowledgeable , very funny and great company. We were picked up from our hotel in a beautiful air-conditioned Mercedes minibus type vehicle, beautiful leather seats inside, very clean and lovely and cool, our driver had ice cold water if required. We stopped in some lovely places with fantastic views, we went to Falaraki for lunch, right on the beach front, the food was delicious, we took our driver with us for lunch, he was so entertaining, a very well travelled man. This trip is so worth booking, you learn a lot about Rhodes and you have such good fun whilst doing it, the best driver , he made our day, I have included his photograph as I am sorry to say I can't remember his name, but he is fab. We definitely recommend you book this trip.
Yannis was waiting for us right on the pier. Even though our ship arrival was adjusted a few times, the tour group was flexible and accommodating. We had a great tour with all the sights we hoped to see and Yannis suggested several others that we really enjoyed.
Our driver was very knowledgeable of the city, he was friendly and very accommodating as to where we wanted to go.
In our opinion the best way to do Rhodes is by private tour. There is so much to be seen that you want to pick your spots to spend the time, and having a private guide makes that possible. It comes down to the tour guide. Ours was good. His personality was a bit different then ours, but he took us to all the places we wanted to go, and was happy to adjust as we went along based on our requests. It was a great experience.
Just as described! Mike gave us a great tour of the area at a leisurely pace. Found a wonderful beach and restaurant for lunch for us, giving us plenty of time to relax! Highly recommend!
I want to start by saying nothing and I mean nothing beats a private tour. Nikos was great guiding us to the best places to see. If something wasn't on the tour he got us there. He told us the history and brought us to the Highest points to see Rodes. We had 2 hours at an amazing beach and was back to our cruise ship in plenty of time. Great tour!
We had the best day. John was our guide. It was very convenient, he picked us up right at the port. He was a gentleman and very knowledgeable. He told us about the culture and history of Rhodes. He spoke about when the Turks and Italians were in command. He dropped us at one end of the old town and walked to meet us in the courtyard, where he was waiting for us. Then he took us to the beach and the tourist part of Rhodes. He took us for a tour of a pottery shop and then to a lunch at advante’. Our lunch was delicious. He was wonderful and we enjoyed him very much. The car was also comfortable and roomy! We would highly recommend your company and John to anyone. Marybeth and Dick Grosfield
The van we rode in was gorgeous and comfy and all of us could see out the tall windows. The guide was awesome - so knowledgeable and took us to places we would not normally see. He was very friendly and told us lots of stories about the greek life and went above and beyond to make our tour very enjoyable. His name was Billy I believe - his family owned the business. The your was only supposed to be 4 hours and it was about 6. He took us to the coolest restaurant for lunch which we would not have normally known about. Can say enough good things.
He changed the itinerary to what we wanted- a tour of views and beach stops and made perfect choices. We had a wonderful dsy.
Oue experience on this tour was as advertised. We met Mike at the dock where he introduced us to Nikos our driver for our tour. From there we spent a wonderful few hours with Nikos who presented all the information along the way. I must add that Mike met us at one of our stops and got us all coffee or waters which was very nice and made us feel like part of the family. Nikos let us know this was our tour and made suggestions and we stopped at a beach/ restaurant where we enjoyed the sun, had a bite to eat and drink. Highly recommend the tour!!
This tour was incredible!!! Mike met us at the pier and he took us to many famous sites in Rhodes which was terrific. Then after 2 hours of touring we went to a beautiful beach for 3 hours where we had an amazing lunch and the swimming was incredible. Mike was the most amazing tour guide. We ended up having the best day!!!
Such a great company and guide. We had a wonderful time and were taken all over the island. Had the best lunch with great service. Visited a local ceramic artist, a family run oil and wine location and breathtaking sites.
