What a great tour. Trikes are so much fun and you cover miles ....Kat was great fun and very informative. You see places you would have never seen on your own A must do .........
Catherina is such a special host. She takes as much time as is needed to make sure that we are all comfortable on the scooters and is constantly checking that everybody is comfortable and okay. The whole experience was amazing and Catherina takes it up to being one of the most lovely and special activities that we have ever done. She interacts with everyone with a wonderful sense of humour. We were able to see so much of the old town and harbour without feeling rushed and saw some quiet places which we would never have found on our own. Big thanks to Catherina.
Our guide, Katerina, was an absolute ray of sunshine and so friendly to everyone she encountered along our route. The Trikkes took a bit of getting use to balance and operation. She spent a lot of time preparing us before setting off as a group. Something out of her control was the traffic around the Rhodes tourist area. She did comment that it had gooten much busier in the last couple of years. Greek drivers were a bit impatient and aggressive, so she really had to look out for us. We did take a few breaks along the way and she carried our waters in her backpack. It will be easier to bring a small backpack to carry your stuff and your own water while riding. We wore helmets and had headsets to hear her while riding.
Katerina looked after us so well and made us feel so welcome. A brilliant tour taking in all the sights and sounds of the beautiful old town with lots of laughs thrown in. We would recommend this experience for anyone looking for a foot-friendly and fun way to see all the sights of Rhodes old town
This was the best tour I have ever taken. Katarina was an amazing tour guide and always made sure we were comfortable and happy and we had a great time!
Caterina was lovely, bubbly and made the tour very fun. She gave us the real local tips 😊 Would 100% recommend!
Katarina was absolutely brilliant! Made the whole 2 hours so pleasurable…giving us enough of history, Trikke lessons and rest breaks. She was cheerful and exuberant…loved it and totally recommend
A brilliant way to see the Old Town of Rhodes with a brilliant guide. Thank you Katrina for giving us so much information in such a fun and enjoyable way. We say way more of the medieval town then would have been possible on foot with lots of information.
Great tour we saw the harbor and various parts of the old town (both the tourist sites and beyond the touristy area). Very fun!
We were having a day trip to Rhodes and wanted to do something special for my birthday that wasn’t boring for my 16 and 20 year old as this was a perfect couple of hours. Thank you Katerina. X (52 btw)
