Amazing experience! Would do again - The tour guide was so lovely and funny, she made the trip very enjoyable, along with the bus driver. We loved the ancient village of Kamiros (although did feel a bit rushed as we only had around half an hour to look around), the tasting in Monolithos was amazing and we ended up buying one of everything we tasted! Our favourite part of the trip was seeing the acropolis and fort in Lindos. The views from the top of it were absolutely breathtaking! Would recommend wearing good walking shoes/sandals and be prepared for a lot of climbing, especially with the steps in Lindos. A wonderful experience that we would absolutely love to do again in the future☺️

Fun, educational and yummy tour - Katarina and Spiros were amazing in providing historical details and knowledge about each of the sites. The tasting event at Maria’s Bee House was excellent as was the lunch at Taverna Panorama. Very enjoyable. Do it !!!!

Recommend Manos Grand tour - A full-day tour from eight in the morning to six in the evening. We were so tired and sooo happy with the day.
From Ialysos where the last passengers boarded the bus we had guided tours all day both in the bus and out at the stops. I think her name was Katrina? She talked about nature, country life and wildlife both now and in ancient times. Geography, architecture, city and state formation. Also much from Greek mythology and also from modern times during world wars etc.
We made a number of stops in interesting places.
Stopped for tasting of oil, honey and soumas.
We got lunch at a tavern with beautiful views. Salad, bread, main course, optional drink and fruit.
Everything was included apart from the entrance to the excavation of an ancient city!
The price was also comparatively low. EUR 45 per person. Others took double for shorter trips where hardly anything was included.

Wonderful day with expert guide and driver - What a wonderful trip. The guide knew how to tell a lot of nice and beautiful stories about the island and its history.
Only point of attention is lunch. This one was delicious but there is no other opportunity to eat anywhere and there is a standard menu with standard price. I would have liked to know that in advance.
But the day was really recommended to learn more about the island and its inhabitants. And Mario our driver has taken us all day safely.
