Rhodes: 1-Day Hop-on Hop-off Sightseeing Bus Tour

About this experience

Book a 1 day Rhodes hop-on hop-off sightseeing bus ticket and discover the island's capital, from the medieval Old Town to the ancient Acropolis on Monte Smith hill. The air-conditioned coach stops at 12 places around Rhodes town, and you can get off at any of them to explore before catching a later bus. A multilingual audio guide on board explains the history and meaning of each site, and free Wi-Fi is included. Which stops does the Rhodes bus cover? The tour starts at Plateia Eleftherias, close to Mandraki port. Stops include the Aquarium, Mandraki harbour, the Government buildings and the New Market. In the Old Town you can hop off for the Palace of the Grand Master and the walled medieval streets around it, then continue to the New Marina. The route then climbs Monte Smith hill to the Acropolis of ancient Rhodes, where you can see the Temple of Apollo, the Ancient Theatre and the Ancient Stadium, with views across the town to the sea. What is included with your ticket? Your ticket includes a day of hop-on hop-off travel to all 12 stops on an air-conditioned coach, an audio guide and Wi-Fi on board. The audio guide is available in English, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Italian, Russian, Spanish and Turkish. A timetable is available to download, which helps you plan how long to spend at each stop. Because the commentary is recorded, you can listen in your own language at your own pace and replay anything you missed. Entry to the Palace of the Grand Master, the Aquarium and other sites is not included. How do you board? Show your smartphone ticket to the driver at the meeting point at Plateia Eleftherias, 851 00 Rhodes. After that you can hop on and off at any stop on the route. The bus is wheelchair accessible. You can cancel for free until 23:59 on the day before your visit, or reschedule until the same time, which gives you flexibility if the weather or your plans change. Arrive at the meeting point a few minutes early on your first morning so you can find the stop without rushing. Tips for your day in Rhodes The Acropolis on Monte Smith has little shade, so visit early or late in the day in summer and bring water and a hat. The air-conditioned coach is a welcome break from the heat between stops. A good plan is to ride up to the Acropolis first, then return to the Old Town to explore its narrow streets on foot in the afternoon, finishing at Mandraki harbour in the evening, where you can watch the boats come in. Keep an eye on the timetable so you know when the last bus leaves each stop. Make more of your Rhodes visit Hop off in the Old Town for Palace of the Knights of Rhodes entry with a digital guide. From Mandraki harbour, a high-speed boat to Symi Island makes a great day out, and families can try the Poseidon submarine cruise.
