1/2 Day City Tour

You will be first taken on a drive round the New Town of Rhodes and shown various places of interest. Afterwards, you will be taken on a panoramic drive to Monte Smith where you will have a fantastic overview of the Old & New town of Rhodes. A visit will be made to the Temple of Apollo & the Ancient Stadium and you will then visit the Old Town of Rhodes and take a walk through the Street of the Knights of St. John. The Grand Masters Palace & the Ancient Museum is our final visiting point.

1/2 Day Tour to Lindos

Lindos is known as one of the most beautiful places to visit in Rhodes. It perfectly combines the contrast between the brilliant white houses and winding lanes of the more recent village built around two beaches, the ancient acropolis and fortifications towering above it from its austere pinnacle. You will visit the temple of Athena Lindia built on the 4th century BC, admire the stunning view and feel the magic. We are certain this memorable experience is not to be found in any other place in Greece.

Day Tour to Filerimos - Kamiros - Valey of the Butterflies

You will be driven along the West Coast of the island to Mount Filerimos where you will visit the Acropolis of Ancient Ialyssos. On the slopes of a hill, some 36km south - west of the town, Kamiros, the so called “Pompeii of Rhodes”, is situated. One can see here the remains of three of the most ancient towns of the island which at the end of the 5th century B.C. were reunited to form the new capital of the island, Rhodes. Excavations lead to discover a whole city with its temples and houses. Continuing you will visit the famous Valley of the Butterflies where one can see millions of butterflies and enjoy the lush vegetation surrounding the valley.

Full Day Cruise to Symi Island

During the sail across the Aegean Sea, we pass very close to the Turkish coastline. Symi is one of the most unspoiled of the Greek Islands. We arrive first to the West Coast part of Panormitis with its 12th century monastery. We, then, continue and arrive at the small picturesque harbour with its dazzling multicoloured houses. We are able to relax in one of the harbour side taverns or explore the graphic inland further. A lovely relaxing day out to a beautiful island.

Kos

Kos is a cosmopolitan island, full of greenery, surrounded by golden beaches and dotted with impressive historical monuments. Its capital is on the north-east side of the island towards the bay. There are still tracks of the ancient city and its castle around the port, which was built in 1450-1478 by St. John’s knights who conquered the island. Excavations in the old city brought to light findings from the "agora" which dates back to Classic Age as well as the conservatory, the high school and the Roman bath.

The historic route of the place unfolds in front of the visitor’s eyes. A distinctive feature of Kos is the Turkish leavings which are reflected not only on buildings such as the “Gazi Hassan Mosque” on Eleftherias Square but also in areas/districts such as Kermendes. The picture of the modern city of Kos is presented and painted nowadays with modern buildings, big hotel complexes, and avenues full of palm trees are impressive. A bike ride round the city, which is the favourite means of transport of both the locals and visitors will surely be unforgettable.

The island of Kos drenched in the Aegean colours, offers its unique hospitality for holidays and relaxation to thousands of visitors every year. Famous for its archaeological treasures, the endless beaches and shores with crystal clear waters, the excellent Mediterranean climate and the small picturesque villages on the mountain Dikaion, Kos is an ideal destination for every Incentive trip.
