A unique trip to the easternmost tip of Greece.
On Rhodes, the island of knights, we will dive into the past as we pass through the medieval gate of the Old Town and face the palace of the Grand Masters. Jumping back into the present, we will explore Rhodes’s unknown inland, with its towers and castles, but also hidden beaches.
We will, then, continue to courtly Chalki, where we will wander among colorful houses of Dodecanese architecture and cobblestone streets that unfold against the backdrop of the blue-green waters of the Aegean Sea.
We will last head to Kastellorizo, an island that captivates all who arrive at its picturesque harbor. All the colors of a painter’s palette have been used in the two- and three-story houses along the quay. Paved paths will lead us to its hidden archaeological and historical corners, such as the Old Castle, the Monastery of Saint Georgios the Shepherd, the ancient wine presses, and the carved tombs. A dive into the Blue Cave, this geological wonder unique in the Mediterranean, will constitute an indelible moment down our memory lane.
