wir haben einen wunderbaren Tag gehabt. Da wir eine Ferienwohnung etwas abseits der Hotelketten hatten wurden wir an einem separaten Punkt abgeholt (super Service), wir haben die Tour kurz nach Bekanntgabe der Thomas Cook Insolvenz gemacht und hatten einige der betroffenen dabei. Der Guide hat aus diesem Grund die Tour (obwohl nur in Englisch angegeben war), auch auf deutsch gemacht, wir haben viel erfahren und viel gelacht. es war ein kurzweiliger durchweg gelungener Tag den wir nicht missen möchten. Danke nochmal an den Guide dessen Namen ich leider vergessen habe.

Wir haben diese Tour sehr genossen. Man bekommt einen guten Überblick über die Insel und besucht verschiedenste Sehenswürdigkeiten, die sonst vielleicht nicht so viel Beachtung finden und dafür nicht so überlaufen sind. Von älterer bis neuerer Geschichte, von Olivenöl- und Weinprobe über Panorama bis Strand ist alles dabei - alles zusammengeführt vom Guide Michael, der einem herzlich und humorvoll "seine" Insel zeigt und zu wirklich allem eine gute Anekdote hat ;)

Wij zijn heel tevreden over de trip, alles was tip top geregeld en de gids wist ons heel veel te vertellen over de highlights maar zeker ook over gewoontes in Rhodos en andere randzaken. De bus was fijn met airco. De plekken die wij hebben mogen bezichtigen lieten ons een andere kant zien van Rhodos omdat we landinwaarts gingen in plaats van alleen bij de kust bleven. Al met al: een top dag!
