Trips
Rhodes & Kastellorizo
Description
A unique trip to the easternmost tip of Greece.
On Rhodes, the island of knights, we will dive into the past when, passing the medieval gate of the Old Town, we will face the palace of the Grand Masters. And that, to jump back again into the present, and explore Rhodes’s unknown inland, with its magnificent forests and towers, but also hidden pebbly and sandy beaches.
We will then head to Kastellorizo, the island that captivates all who arrive at its picturesque harbor. All the colors of the 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 offers one of the most intense feelings one can experience in this natural geological wonder, unique in the Mediterranean.
