モノリソスでの小グループハイキングサンセット

We had an incredible time with our guide, Manuela, from Hiking Rhodes Team. This was by far the best thing we did during our holiday in Rhodes! We escaped the hustle and bustle and headed to beautiful Monolithos for a three-hour hike, finishing at Monolithos Castle in time to watch the sunset. Manuela was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and kind throughout. We were also provided with snacks, water and a beautiful Greek picnic to enjoy while watching the sunset. The hike itself was perfect for beginners. We stopped halfway for a refreshing dip in the sea before continuing on to the castle, with plenty of time to find a spot and enjoy the sunset. The route was absolutely beautiful, surrounded by pine and olive trees. One of the highlights was being welcomed by a huge group of goats halfway through the hike! You could hear all the bells hanging from their collars, ringing together like an orchestrated band, such a lovely and unexpected moment. I would 100% recommend this hike to anyone visiting Rhodes. A huge thank you to Manuela for such a wonderful experience! We really hope to join another hike with you in the near future. Perfect for fit and healthy beginners. Before the hike, we also ate at a small local restaurant called Greek House, which produces its own wine, olive oil, honey and souma. It was the perfect way to round off a brilliant day exploring this beautiful part of Rhodes.

Me and my husband booked this tour only a few days in advance and fortunately we were the only ones on it. The best guided hiking experience in our lives. We got picked up from the hotel by our Guide, Manuela, and we drove together straight to the starting point of a hike. The route was sooo picturesque - with lots of great spots for photos and simply to enjoy a wilder and calmer part of Rhodes. We had an hour long stop at a secluded beach with giant (as for the sea) waves and NO sunbeds/people on the beach and it was INCREDIBLE! No tourists, no noise,- just you, black sand and a sound of strong big waves. Like a dream. The sunset on Monolithos castle was majestic. I strongly urge everyone who’s considering this hike to book it ASAP, you will not be disappointed. Manuela also brought some food she gave us at the monolithos to enjoy together with the sunset - we had cheese with olives, juice (there was an option to have some wine, but we are both non-drinkers, so we had juice) and a greek snack. We did, however, have a lunch packed in advance we ate at the beach, I would recommend you do the same mainly because of the duration of the hike - the pick-up from Faliraki was around 1:20pm and we got back around 9:30pm - so bring some food and water. Manuela is an amazing woman, we loved spending this day with her. We learned a lot of things about Greece, the island itself and of course some interesting and important history :) I do hope you get to experience this hike if you’re on Rhodes - you will NOT be disappointed. Thank you!

Fantastic experience .. we did some mixed routes, seen unconventional places, friendly and prepared guide.

If you do just one thing in Rhodes, make it a hike. The company not only offers the beautiful Monolithos route we took but also several others worth exploring. Our guide, Manuela, was fantastic—personable, knowledgeable about the trail itself, and full of fascinating insights into life on the island. The beach break for a swim was the perfect way to cool off, followed by a relaxing coffee by the sea. We did this hike on our last day, which was the only regret—we would have loved the chance to join more of their hikes!

It was a struggle but if we hadn't done it there is we would regret it. The place and the view paid off all the effort. Manuela, our guide, knows her stuff and to say that she was fantastic is simplistic. If you come to Rhodes it is a must-do experience!

Our group was just me and my hubby with Manuela. Firstly we were picked up from our hotel. The drive to our starting point was ok. Then we hiked for about 9 km: down to a beautiful beach and then back up to Monolithos to see the sunset. The weather was hot but we had enough breaks to make sure we were hydrated. The beach was really nice. And the sunset was amazing. I recommend this but make sure you have good shoes and you are in relatively good shape. Hiking up and down mountains in hot weather is not for everyone. But we really enjoyed this!

Beautiful tour and great experience in an area of Rhodes little traveled but beautiful. Our Guide Manuela was wonderful and made the tour even more special. Consigliatissimo!

Exciting trip, a true immersion in nature in a breathtaking setting. Highly recommended! Manuela and Elisa really take you into another world! Not to mention the surprise ending Not to be missed! Alessandra and Marco

I took part in the hike to Monolithos Castle at sunset. it was a wonderful experience thanks to the excellent organization of Hiking Rhodes. We were a group of around 10 people, of different nationalities but who immediately bonded in great chats making the experience truly unique. Everything planned to perfection, excellent guide (thank you so much Manuela!!) always ready to explain and tell a thousand anecdotes about Rhodes and its history. In the first part of the walk we were taken to a splendid, solitary and hidden beach, and then went back up towards the castle to enjoy the sunset. Really beautiful, even the snack offered, a small detail that you don't expect, but that you then remember.. Truly recommended experience, when I return to Rhodes I will try another of the proposed tours!

We had a wonderful trip to the sunset at Monolithos for four hours with our great guide Manuela. Beautiful landscape and very good organisation with stops to drink and eat and some great place at a hidden beach to swim in big Aegean waves. Beautiful sunset at Monolithos castle and many helpful information from Manuela about Rhodes, it’s people and history. Don’t miss it!
