Relaxing tours for seniors that do not require extensive walking
We’ve been providing tours for the old and young for over 35 years. We particularly have a large range of tour choices for seniors that come to Rhodes by cruise ships. Rhodes tours tend to feature the best of both worlds. They feature adventure and comfort so that you don’t have to choose one. You’ll get to see the best of Rhodes’ destinations without having to sacrifice either. There’s even an option to create a custom tour to suit your sensibilities.
Create Your Own Custom Tour
We recognize that every tourist isn’t the same. Some may be here to see the beautiful landscapes while others may want to tour the lovely seaside villages. Others may come here to enjoy the spiritually rich history of the place. That’s why we have the option to create a custom tour. You can choose to do whatever you like without clashing with other tour groups or getting sidetracked. Enjoy what you want to.
Rhodes Tours Are Relaxing
Rest breaks are crucial during tours, especially those that weave through different terrain. Our tours are designed to be relaxing. Whether you’re a couple or a group of friends that are traveling together, we cater to your comfort and your enjoyment.
Small Groups Big Experiences
We know you’re here to have an experience that you’ll never forget. You don’t want to get swept away with the crowd without seeing any of the sights. That’s why we keep our groups small. That way everyone has a chance to take in the sights and sounds, ask questions, experience the area and then move on. Small group activities also allow for much more individual involvement. They strike a balance between spontaneity and planned activities. That way, you’ll get time to do what you want, and also follow the group to a great destination.
Experience the Island of Rhodes Through Its Inhabitants
You haven’t really experienced Rhodes until you’ve seen it through the eyes of tis local population. Our tours offer the chance to connect with the native culture as well as its landmarks. It’s not really a tour until you realize the significance of the landmarks through the eyes of its people. See how the locals shop, where they gather, where they live, how they go about their daily lives. Experience an entire world that you’ve never seen with your eyes before.
Choose Your Own Tour
Once you’ve decided how you want to proceed, you can choose your own experience. Choose the destinations, the type of landmarks you want to see, and the type of tour you want to go on. It’s our job to make it a reality. We will make sure all your requirements and needs are taken care of to give you the holiday experience of your life.

YOUR TOUR-DRIVER (CHAUFFEUR)
For the Driving Tours (Chauffeured Tours) you are provided a private tour with a Driver who is NOT a Licensed Tour Guide and will not provide services of a guide.
Greece has strict laws and regulations in place to protect licensed tour guides. This makes it unlawful for Tour Drivers to offer commentary about sites outside the vehicle. In order for us to comply with Hellenic laws, Tour Drivers may not accompany our guests inside monuments and museums. Only licensed Tour Guides may guide you at the sites you visit.
For your safety inside the vehicle, drivers provide commentary only when it is deemed safe to do so while driving. When your driver must concentrate during various driving conditions, please refrain from any distracting behavior as your safety during the tour is our top priority.
AMBIENCE INSIDE YOUR VEHICLE
If you have preferences regarding A/C, heat, or typically experience motion sickness while in a moving vehicle, please feel free to let your driver know immediately so he can accommodate your needs. If you do not make your needs known to your driver, he would not know how to make your tour more comfortable. If you have difficulty hearing your driver speak, please ask him to speak louder. Only licensed tour guides are lawfully permitted to use microphones and audio systems inside the vehicle.
ANY PROBLEMS DURING YOUR TOUR?
If you are experiencing any issues or problems during the tour, please call us at the telephone number provided. If you do not have a working cell phone, please ask your Tour-Driver or your Tour Guide to call the office from his cell phone so we can help you and resolve any issues you may be experiencing.
