Classical Greece: Half-Day Lindos
Lindos is not only one of the most important Classical sites in the Dodecanese, it is also one of the most beautiful settings offering an extraordinary view over the modern town of Lindos and further to the sea.
Our journey takes us along the East Coast of the island passing through several villages before a stop is made at a ceramic workshop. We then make our way to undoubtedly the most beautiful spot of Rhodes Island, Lindos.
The shimmering crystal blue bay is surrounded by dazzling whitewashed houses, and perched high above the village is the Acropolis, with its Temple of Athena. You may also visit the Byzantine church of Our Lady, built in the 13th century.
Continuing up to the Acropolis, we can view the Castle of the Knights, the restored temple of the Lindian Athena, and look out on to St. Paul's Bay with its tiny chapel. There will be time for refreshments before returning to your hotel, at approximately 13.30. Notes: Excursion starts from north side of the island. Entrance Fees are not included.
