Our November cruise was going to be in Rhodes port.
We joined another couple found in the Roll Call of our cruise and decided to book a private tour with this company.
Of the available options, we selected the Best of Rhodes tour, which seemed to cover the most important places that we wanted to visit for a duration of 5 hours.
The driver and his Mercedes Sedan were waiting on time, right in front of the gangway of our ship. Mr. Nicholas (manager of this company) was also there to greet us and to introduce Mr. Stamos, our driver.
We stopped for pictures at the Old Harbour, North point of the Island, we drove 50 Kms to Lindos, stopped on the way in Anthony Quinn Bay, then Lindos (village and Port and free time to visit the Acropolis), Saint Paul's bay (where part of Guns of Navarone movie was filmed) and we drove back enjoying the beautiful view to the coast.
One of the best things about our tour was the possibility of being dropped near the places to see/visit (as the buses have t

My wife and I were on a cruise and decided to do a shore excursion off the ship. It was one of the better decisions we made the entire week. I was in contact with Nicholas before our arrival in Rhodes and he assured me that he would meet us at the port. On the day of arrival, Nicholas and Mike the driver, met us as we disembarked the ship with a sign with our name on it. Mike was a very knowledgeable driver, and made our time in Rhodes a memorable one. We decided to do Best of Rhodes Lindos Private Shore Excursion, which was amazing. Our entire experience with Rhodes Private Tours was outstanding. I would highly recommend Rhodes Private Tours while in Rhodes.

A visit Giannis’ studio for a look at hand made Rhodian pottery was very nice and a drive to some spectacular views of both the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas
