Immerse yourself in the beauty and history of Rhodes’ captivating east coast on this bespoke private tour. From the therapeutic waters of Kallithea Springs to the iconic acropolis of Lindos, the hidden gem of Stegna, and the refreshing oasis of Seven Springs, you’ll experience the highlights of the island at your own pace and with personalized attention. Let us curate an unforgettable day tailored to your interests.
Your private driver will greet you at your preferred location, ready to begin your coastal adventure. Our first stop is the magnificent Kallithea Springs. Step back in time as you explore this beautifully restored Italian-era spa complex. Wander through the elegant rotunda, admire the intricate mosaic floors, and breathe in the fragrant sea air. You’ll have ample time to soak in the tranquil atmosphere, capture stunning photographs of the turquoise waters and unique architecture, and perhaps even dip your toes in the revitalizing springs.
Next, we’ll journey south along the scenic coastal road towards the jewel of the east coast: Lindos. As we approach, prepare to be mesmerized by the breathtaking panoramic view of the whitewashed village cascading down the hillside towards the azure Aegean Sea, crowned by its majestic ancient acropolis. Upon arrival, your driver will take you as close as possible to the village entrance (as Lindos is largely pedestrianized). You’ll then have the freedom to explore this charming labyrinth of narrow, winding streets at your leisure. Discover hidden courtyards, browse local artisan shops, and perhaps enjoy a refreshing drink at a traditional taverna.
For those who wish to delve deeper into history, you’ll have the option to walk or take a gentle donkey ride up to the Acropolis of Lindos (entrance fees not included). Here, you’ll be rewarded with awe-inspiring views and the chance to explore the ancient Temple of Athena Lindia, offering a glimpse into Rhodes’ rich Hellenistic past.
Leaving the captivating beauty of Lindos, we’ll head to the charming coastal village of Stegna. This quieter haven offers a more relaxed and authentic Rhodian experience. Here, nestled along the sandy beach, you’ll find a selection of traditional seafood restaurants. We’ll take you to a carefully chosen local establishment renowned for its fresh catches and authentic flavors. Indulge in a delicious seafood lunch (cost not included) while enjoying the gentle sea breeze and the sound of the waves. This is the perfect opportunity to savor the local cuisine and unwind in a picturesque setting.
Our final stop takes us inland to the enchanting Seven Springs (Epta Piges). This verdant oasis offers a refreshing contrast to the coastal scenery. Explore the network of natural springs, wander through the shaded pine forest, and discover the small lake. For the adventurous, there’s the unique experience of walking through the dark, narrow tunnel that leads to the lake (optional). Enjoy the tranquility of this natural haven, listen to the sounds of nature, and perhaps spot some local wildlife before we begin our comfortable journey back to your accommodation, filled with wonderful memories of your private east coast exploration.
