Rhodes Shore Excursions & Private Rhodes Tours - Lindos, Medieval Old Town & Rhodes Greece Excursions
Rhodes is the largest of the Dodecanese islands and one of the most historically layered destinations on any Eastern Mediterranean cruise itinerary - a place where the Knights of St. John built fortifications in the 14th century that still stand intact today, where ancient Hellenistic temples look down from a hilltop above a whitewashed village, and where three and a half thousand years of continuous habitation are visible in a single port day. Rhodes Greece shore excursions from Private Shore Trips cover the island's two most significant sites with a private guide and vehicle exclusively for your group. The Acropolis of Lindos private shore excursion is a 4.5-hour tour to the southeast coast of the island - the whitewashed village of Lindos, its donkey path up to the ancient acropolis perched above the sea, and the Doric Temple of Athena Lindia with views across the Aegean in both directions. Our most popular full-day tour, the Best of Rhodes private shore excursion, combines the Acropolis of Lindos with the UNESCO Medieval Old Town of Rhodes - the Grand Masters Palace, the Street of the Knights, and the Archaeological Museum housed in the Hospital of the Knights, all within the best-preserved medieval walled city in Europe.
For guests whose time in port focuses on the city, our Highlights of Rhodes Old Town private tour is a 4-hour walking excursion through the medieval walls - the Grand Masters Palace with its 300 rooms and celebrated mosaic floors, and the Archaeological Museum with its collection of Hellenistic and Roman sculpture including the celebrated Aphrodite of Rhodes. The medieval city was built by the Knights Hospitaller between 1309 and 1522 and is the largest inhabited medieval town in Europe. All private Rhodes tours and Rhodes Greece shore excursions include a licensed English-speaking guide, a private vehicle, and our back-to-ship guarantee. Reserve with a $50 deposit.
