A brilliant way to explore both the Old Town and modern Rhodes. The Trikke was great fun and let us see so much more than we would have on foot. Katerina was an excellent guide; friendly, knowledgeable and full of interesting facts about the city. She made everyone feel comfortable from the start and her enthusiasm really made the tour memorable. Highly recommended if you’re visiting Rhodes!
Kate was an exceptional guide. She stopped and gave us breaks and to take pictures and a quick walk. She is a great teacher on how to use the trikkes! She was such a happy pleasant person to be around. Highly recommend.
We arrived a few minutes late (parking misjudged!) and Katarina welcomed us straight away, then spent a good while making each of us (five 60+ ladies with varied confidence) totally comfortable with our use of the trikkes before setting off. She set the trikkes at slower speeds to allow us time to get used to them too. We saw lots of the old town and harbour, with great photo stops throughout and lots of fun and interesting stories along the way. One of us took a tumble on a tight corner (too confident, always mad one of our group) and Katarina quickly dealt with this (first aid kit always carried) and was lovely to all of us throughout. Katarina, thank you again for a lovely tour, we wish you a busy and happy summertime! *Definitely recommend this tour if you have a few hours to fill*
This is the perfect way to get around Rhodes and see everything there is to see! The scooters were easy to use. They were in great condition. The best part of the tour was our tour guide, Katarina. She was funny, personable, and very passionate about her job. She has a great eye for the best photographs. She interacted with each one of us so uniquely. By the end of the first hour, she felt part of the family. We could have spent the whole day with her! The three hours goes by so quickly. Definitely the best tour we have had this trip.
Wonderful experience and local history in the mix. We were able to see many parts of the city quicker than walking.
Katharine is a warm and bubbly person who made this trip a lot of fun. It's a great way to see the old city, up to the northernmost top of the island and the promenade. The trikke is easy to master and much better than walking. Highly recommended!
Had a great fun morning with our guide Katharina! With great enthusiasm and humor she showed us Rhodes city! Extremely fun experience! Thank you Katharina! Greetings from the Dutch guys!!
Katarina was our tour guide and she was so friendly and welcoming. She showed us how to use the trykkes and made sure we were confident before setting off. We had a lovely tour of the marina and the medieval city - katarina was knowledgable and made the tour fun. Unfortunately I suffered with a bit of heat stroke towards the end of the tour and katarina was very caring and ensured I was okay, arranging for another person to collect the trykke so myself and my husband could head back to our hotel. Thank you for a great tour.
A very enjoyable experience with a guide who was great company. The trikes were fun and easy to operate.
Loved the Tryke ride through the various locations in Rhodes… it was informative yet kept us all engaged ! She had an infectious personality!
