Discover the world for less.

RHODES Greece The largest and arguably most historically powerful of the Dodecanese Islands, Rhodes has firmly anchored itself in the Aegean Sea with a strong sense of self and with a multitude of experiences to offer.

A welcoming harbour in the Mediterranean, Rhodes Town rises gently above the azure-blue sea. Here holidaymakers can walk through the narrow streets of the beautifully preserved, UNESCO Heritage-listed Old Town, where only the local tourist shops remind you that you’ve not actually travelled back to the Middle Ages.

Stroll along the old walls of the city, visit Old Town Castle and marvel at the Palace of the Knights, which was built by crusaders in the 14th century. If you’re still hungry for historical things, then feast your interest on the nearby Archaeological Museum of Rhodes.

When the midday sun starts to really take effect, retreat to one of the cafés or tavernas for a light lunch, or kick back and relax along one of the many beaches that surround the oval island. Lounge by one of the many beautiful stretches of sandy beaches, have a refreshing swim in the clear blue sea, or wander through the quaint little streets of the town.

The eastern coast of Rhodes is full of charming towns, while the landscape of the west coast is more rugged and mountainous.

LINDOS Greece On the banks of the azure-blue sea, lies the charming village of Lindos. Along the old, narrow streets you will find quaint little shops as well as cafés and tavernas where you can enjoy amazing Greek specialities like moussaka, souvlaki and charcoal-grilled fish with a glass of delicious Greek wine amongst the chatter and laughter of the locals. Towering over Lindos is the old fortress. Now an archaeological site, this hillside fortification has been held by Greeks, Romans, Ottomans and other great empires throughout history. This fascinating site can be explored either at your own leisure or through guided tours.

Near Lindos you’ll also find plenty of coastline with beautiful white, sandy beaches and sky-blue water. Pallas Beach to the north of the village is popular seaside-place for locals and visitors alike, however, for a truly relaxing escape from the rest of the world, head to St Paul’s Bay immediately south of the village for a small cove that is both peaceful and picturesque.

SYMI

FULL DAY EXCURSION

ÂŁ39

from per person

After being picked-up from your hotel, you will be met at Mandraki Harbour by a professional escort to set sail at 9:00am. The boat trip takes approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes to arrive in Symi, one of the most unspoiled Greek Islands.

Upon arrival, you will have time at leisure (approximately 3 hours) to explore the quaint shops in search for natural sea sponges and cooking spices or have a fresh fish lunch (not included). After lunch the boat sets sail for Panormitis, here there is plenty of time to see the Monastery of St. Michael, swimming and sunbathing before returning to Rhodes, and being transferred back to your hotel.

What’s included

- Return transfers from the hotel to the harbour - Return boat trip from Rhodes to Symi Duration: 9 hours Sightseeing in Symi - Symi harbour: Katarinettes on the harbour front is where the Germans signed the surrender of the Dodecanese at the end of World War II. A little further along towards the bridge there is a replica of the Lindos ship with a war memorial.

The Nautical Museum is at the back of the Town Square and is easily identifiable by the canons outside. Open Tuesday to Sunday from 10.00 to 14.00. The Town Square is one of the venues for the Symi Festival. St. John's Church has an interesting burial ground as well as a fine, recently restored pebble courtyard which is also a Festival venue, as is the nearby Petrides School. The Kataratkis, a steep footpath at the back of the harbour towards the Castle and Chorio, was the ancient road connecting the village with the harbour before the Kali Strata was built in the 19th century. The Kali Strata starts at the back of the square in the south-western corner of the harbour and is about 350 steps up to Chorio, with interesting 19th century mansions lining the way.

Sightseeing in Chorio, the 'village' area: The Kali Strata opens into Syllogos Square (also a Festival venue), from the back of which a road leads round behind the Castle and to Lemonitsa Church. There are spectacular views over the harbour and this

route eventually connects up with the top of the Kataraktis, the original staircase connecting Yialos to Chorio.

The Castle was rebuilt by the Knights of St. John in the early 15th century on the site of a much older fortification. It survived in reasonable condition until World War II when it was used as an Axis munitions store. This was blown up, destroying the Castle and the Church of the Assumption which was within its walls. Parts of the walls remain and there is a plaque visible, commemorating Filibert de Niallac, the Knight's French Grand Master.

Continuing further along the Kali Strata, the Old Pharmacy has been restored and houses an interesting collection of French medicine jars and other paraphanelia. The Museum is further up, in Old Chorio. Follow the signposts. Open Tuesday to

Sunday from 10.00 to 14.00 and contains many interesting artefacts. Chatziagapitos House, a restored 18th century mansion is nearby and is open during museum hours.

There are many old churches and monasteries to be seen. Some of the most accessible are described here: The church of Constantinos and Eleni on the southern slopes of the Vigla along the Panormitis road has gardens, terraces and a well.

There is usually someone there in the summer. The monastery of the Archangel Michael at Roukouniotis was built by the knights of St. John in the 14th century on the ruins of an important 5th century monastery, which in turn was built on the remains of a pre-Christian temple. The monastery of Sotiris Megalos, shortly before the road descends to Panormitis, is very picturesque and

has spectacular views. There is a sign-posted walk to an old vinery and the ruins of old wine presses.

The Monastery of the Archangel Michael at Panormitis, is the island's most famous monastery.

The original church of St. Michael was built around 450 AD on the site of an ancient temple to Apollo.

It contains a splendid icon of the Archangel and two interesting museum sections.

Overnight accommodation can be arranged. There are other churches and monasteries of interest which are best visited as part of an organised excursion or by boat as foot access is difficult, or in the case of Nimos, impossible.
