Rhodes Explorer Self-Drive Expedition and Culinary Odyssey

Set off on a journey to the 7 Springs, a place where nature’s splendor and a touch of enchantment fuse seamlessly. Hidden within verdant greenery, this secret haven boasts crystal-clear waters and a tranquility that speaks directly to the soul. Local folklore suggests that traversing the enigmatic tunnel isn't merely a stroll in the shadows; it’s believed to be a magical cleanse for the soul, purging all your misdeeds! So, calling all adventurers (and yes, that includes you, sinners) – did you get the memo? ;-) Furthermore, if you're on the hunt for the legendary fountain of youth, taking a sip from each of the 7 springs is rumored to reverse the aging process by a whopping seven years. Thus, gear up for an expedition filled with rejuvenation and the promise of a sin-free slate. Don’t miss out on discovering the breathtaking waterfall! Who would've thought the keys to everlasting youth and a guilt-free spirit were hidden in a journey through a tunnel and a few magical sips away? ;-)

Navigating through Profitis Ilias , you're met with an explosion of greenery where ancient olive, fig, and plane trees throw a party around a charming stone church. This delightful spot, perched at the mountain's summit, feels like you've stumbled into a fairy tale. The 15th-century St. Nikolaos Foundoukli stands out, flaunting its stone swagger and quartet of apses like a medieval rock star. Step inside, and you're in for a visual concert: the walls belt out stories with stunning murals of the Christological cycle, the fab four Evangelists, and a lineup of saints, all mashed up with snazzy artistic flourishes. It's a showstopper that puts the island on the map. Right next door, there's a cozy park with a spring that locals swear by, claiming it serves up the finest water this side of Rhodes — and they're not spinning tales. It's your chance to guzzle down some top-notch H2O!

Discover the delightful village of Archipoli in Rhodes, where the real essence of the island is not just seen but tasted. Embark on an epicurean adventure through a smorgasbord of local wonders – from the symphony of honeys that range from whispering sweet nothings to your taste buds, to the souma that’s sure to put a little fire in your belly. Let the liquid gold of olive oil cascade over your palate, and treat yourself to a cavalcade of handmade sweets that could coax a smile from even the most stoic of statues. Nibble on the juiciest of seasonal fruits as you're cradled by the stunning backdrop of Archipoli. A trip here isn’t merely a visit; it’s a full-blown sensory extravaganza.

For those eager to deepen their gastronomic journey, an optional lunch awaits. Delight in a classic Greek dish: Moussaka. This traditional casserole layers tender eggplant, seasoned ground meat, and creamy béchamel sauce, all baked to perfection in a wood-fired oven. Accompanied by a crisp Greek salad, tangy tzatziki, and freshly baked wood-oven bread, this meal offers a true taste of Greece. Lunch is available at €15 per adult and €10 per child under 12.
