I booked the private wine tour and sunset at Monolithos Castle. I emailed GREtours direct to ask a few questions as I wanted to propose to my girlfriend during the sunset. George replied very quickly to my email and was so helpful with arranging the whole thing. George is very knowledgeable about Rhodes and shared facts and information about things we were passing. The wine tour and tasting was brilliant, we tasted 10 different wines and had a cheese board. Monolithos castle is absolutely stunning and felt like we were in top of the world, George then brought over the champagne and fruit bowl in a basket. It was the perfect setting for the proposal. Also an added bonus, if you would like George takes pictures, videos and drone footage during the afternoon/evening which is absolutely brilliant. Cant recommend enough!

Itinerary
The only visited winery of the island where they provide guided tour.
On our way to the west coast we meet small villages which are built amphitheatrically on the slopes of the highest mountains of the island. They distinguishes for the souma production and the developed apiculture. Their pure honey is considered the best on the island. You can have the chance to taste it!
Final destination the castles of Monolithos or Kritinia where you can watch its magnificent sunset by the most impressive location of the island. Both castles perched on a huge monolithic rock crag in the south-west side of the island and overlooking the sea from a height of 240m giving us an incredible view. Get ready for a romantic breakout which is going to last longer in your memory forever. Undoubtedly, the most romantic thing to do in Rhodes island! | Duration: 2 Hours

We had such an amazing time on our wine tour with George. We went to an incredible winery and tasted more wines than I can count (because I am a bit tipsy), and following this we stopped at the Monolith to enjoy the amazing sunset Rhodes has to offer. This was our favourite day so far. Thank you so much for having us.
The wine was amazing and then the sunset spot was beautiful. George was fantastic and the experience as a whole was unforgettable
The tour was great! My husband and I took this private tour on our last day of vacationing in Greece. It was a perfect ending. George, our guide was very friendly and was very accommodating. He also took pictures of us throughout the afternoon which was optional but a nice touch! We stopped at a couple of wineries and enjoyed great hospitality. The sunset was beautiful over the Aegean Sea. We highly recommend!!
My wife and I visited Rhodes in June for our honeymoon and we booked the GREtour wine tasting with the sunset. George was our tour guide for the day/evening and he was amazing, very knowledgable without giving too much information, his english was very good which allowed for flowing conversations throughout the trip and the places he chose to take us were perfect. We visited a variety of wine shops and they all offered a wide range of Rhodes grown wine, cheese and meat that would service all taste preferences. The second half of the tour was spent at Monolithos Castle overlooking the ocean and watching the sunset, it was truly breathtaking. George surprised us with a little picnic basket with fruit and champagne which added to the memory that will last a lifetime. Overall, the day/evening was perfect, we were lucky enough to see some beautiful parts of the island and meet some amazing people along the way. It was very good value for money and I would highly recommend to any wine & cheese lovers!
We had an amazing day tour with our brilliant guide George. We loved every moment of the trip - visiting a beautiful monastery, several wineries and great photo stops! We would absolutely recommend!!
We had a fantastic tour in July 2023- great guide, knowledgeable and friendly. Great photos sent to us afterwards too, a lovely reminder of the tour.
This whole experience was beyond what we ever could’ve imagined. Our host was very friendly, acted completely professional, and made us feel very comfortable. The views were absolutely brilliant and the tour photographs taken by our host, on camera and on a drone, were amazing. The stops of wine tasting were fun and great insight into the Greek culture, we will always remember this! Thanks George!!!
Amazing experience! We booked the sunset winetasting tour as an activity to do while we were in Rhodes on our honeymoon and we are so happy that we did! George was absolutely amazing and it was great to try so many local wineries. The scenery driving across the island is absolutely beautiful and the sunset was like nothing we’ve ever seen before. We got to experience so many places in a short amount of time and got to meet some amazing locals who taught us so much about the island. 10/10 recommend!
Georgos was a fantastic guide! We stopped three places for wine-tasting via a beautiful drive through the hills, with stops at viewpoints for photos on the way where he kindly snapped lots of pictures. Then a stop at a quaint town for honey-tasting before the final magnificent stop at Monolithos with a breathtaking sunset. Georgos supplied Prosecco and fruit to enhance the experience. One of the highlights of our trip - highly recommend.
We had a wonderful time with George as he showed us round the beautiful island of Rhodes. He was a friendly and attentive tour guide, with lots of thoughtful details and insights. The photos he took were a lovely surprise and they look fantastic!
George is a fantastic guide, informative and friendly. He’s knowledgeable & just the right mix of chatty yet calm and knows when to step back and let you enjoy your experience. The tour itself is varied and the winery is exceptional, every single wine we tried was delicious. The views we were taken to were breathtaking. I would happily do this tour again.
George is one of the nicest people we met in Rhodes! He was a very knowledgeable, interesting guide and made us feel very welcome and comfortable. The sunset experience at monolithos was one of the best ever - and I’ve seen a few! Wear comfy shoes though as is a little climb on rocky ground to the top.
I gave a voucher for this trip away as wedding present. As my friends told me it was a beautiful day. The host was really friendly in advance and my friends were full of praise about him after the trip. He has shown them perfect and hidden spots on Rhodes.
We were lucky to receive a tour with George as a wedding present from our friends and had a fantastic time! The tour was super beautiful and very much fun, we have visited local places that we wont be able to find by ourselves and had tried so many different local wine and snacks. The best was the all the stories and i interesting fakts about Rhodes and Greece that George has shared with us and have reccomended so many nice places for the rest of out stay in Rhodes. Definately reccomended and we will be happy to join more IF their tours when we come back.
Le top vraiment à recommander sans problème, guide au top visite très intéressante et vue splendide .
Super good trip - great wine tasting, nature and area. Georges was a great guide! The trip can be highly recommended - a good opportunity to get out of the tourist areas and see another part of Rhodes.
I gave this tour as a wedding present. According to the recipients, it was a perfect day. The tour guide George was incredibly accommodating and gave everything to make the two an unforgettable experience. Various places were visited that one would never have discovered as a “normal” tourist. The wine tastings and guided tours were very interesting and were rounded off with an unforgettable view of the sea and the sunset of Monolithos Castle. Should we ever visit Rhodes again, we would book this tour ourselves!
