Amazing day trip in Rhodes
An amazing experience Nikos made us feel so relaxed and was full of knowledge and great anecdotes form his grandfather.
We got to see so much of Rhodes and he was always happy to answer any questions we had .
Taverna we stopped in was amazing alongside the olive oil and local wine tasting and pottery. We never felt pressured to buy from any of these but enjoyed learning about the history and traditions of this lovely island.
Would highly recommend the tour company as nothing to much for them.

Incredible trip
We had the absolute pleasure of touring Rhodes Island with the most incredible driver and guide imaginable! From the moment we were picked up, we felt welcomed, comfortable, and completely taken care of. Our driver was not only punctual and professional, but also incredibly knowledgeable about the island’s history, culture, and hidden gems.
He tailored the tour perfectly to our interests, taking us to breathtaking spots we never would have found on our own. From the ancient ruins to the charming villages and stunning coastal views, every moment was unforgettable — and his warm personality made the experience even more special.
It wasn’t just a tour, it felt like exploring with a friend who genuinely cared about making our day perfect. Highly, recommended — if you're visiting Rhodes, this is the only way to see it right!

Wow! What a great day!
We had a wonderful time with our guide Nikos in Rhodes! We had no idea what a lovely island with such great people it was. We have had many great days, but this was probably the best! Nikos was so warm and friendly and tailored our tour to our group! We had one person with walking difficulties and he totally worked with us to make it a wonderful day. Besides the normal ancient sites (which were amazing with Nikos’ insights) we were able to go to a little out of town pottery shop and watch the owner make a beautiful vase! The shop was full of beautiful works of art all made on site! We finished with a fantastic Greek meal - best food ever! Would highly recommend!! A day to remember! ❤️

Daytrip to Butterfly valley and Lindos
We booked a day trip (5 hours) via Rhodes Taxi Tours. The taxi picked us up directly in front of the hotel. Our driver was Nicholas. He was a very friendly and professional driver! He was able to tell us about the history and sights of the island. He was flexible as a driver. It was easy for us to reach the sights we wanted and the driver knew well what to do to save time. We highly recommend Rhodes Taxi tours and special thanks to Nicholas. This trip was one of the highlights of our holiday and exceeded our expectations.

Fabulous day touring Rhodes with Nikos
Had a brilliant day touring Rhodes with our driver Nikos. Nikos was polite, punctual, and passionate about Rhodes. He was very flexible regarding our itinerary for the day, and took us to Lindos and the Acropolis, beach for swimming, fabulous Greek Taverna by the seaside for lunch, pottery workshop and a 1760 monastery.
