Great day out - would highly recommend - We had an amazing time on this trip and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Rhodes. The transfers to and from our hotel were well organised, making the whole experience stress-free and giving us the chance to explore places we might not have seen otherwise. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the day even more enjoyable. The Valley of the Butterflies was stunning—much larger than we expected—and even at the end of the season, we saw plenty of butterflies. It’s such a beautiful place that we could have happily spent even more time there. The wine tasting was also a highlight, giving us the chance to learn a lot about local wine production and taste lots of varieties. The Bee Museum was compact but full of information. We discovered how beekeeping has developed over time, why bees are so important, and enjoyed sampling several types of local honey.

Stellios is a fountain of knowledge. - I'm not in habit of leaving remove reviews on trip advisor but felt I needed to let people know that a fantastic experience I had. From the very first minute I booked the tour, the communication from Half Price Tours was second to none. The pickup from the hotel was seamless and the tour itself was informative with being boring. Stellios is a credit to your team! The way he handled the more challenging guests was Impressive. The butterfly valley was better than I had imagined. The oil and wine tasting was great ( I would like to revisit the winery again and do one of their other experiences.) The bee museum finished the day off nicely. I will be certainly recommending this company.

Fantastic Experience! - It was a fantastic experience overall. We got to visit the butterfly valley, do some olive oil, honey and wine tasting. We were a small group (4) which was very convenient and our tour guide Stelios, was so great. The tour didn’t feel rushed and met our expectations. We will definitely book again with them!

A special day in Rhodes w/ mom - We had an excellent day with Vitali. The company was having a busy morning, so we had about a 20 minute wait after being dropped off at the office, but Vitali immediately made us feel welcome and began sharing facts about Rhodes. We were the only folks on the tour that day, which was a special treat. He answered all of our questions and we learned alot about Rhodes, his home country (Moldova), wines (excellent winery with a lovely owner and views), and were able to purchase the items that we preferred with zero sales pressure. The views/sounds at the Butterfly Valley were also lovely- 6 euro entrance fee. Whether you have a small or large group, Vitali knows how to make your day special. *The only negative- the driver picked us up in a van where he'd clearly been smoking (but wasn't supposed to). We are sensitive to that smell and it wasn't the nicest way to begin our day.

Great way to spend the day! - Excellent trip, we had only stayed in the Town on our holiday so it was a nice way to see more around the island. Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable - particularly when it came to the wine! Had a great time and would recommend to anyone visiting Rhodes.

Butterfly Valley, worth a visit when in Rhodes. - A beautiful place. Saw lots of beautiful butterflies, lovely lakes, and forestry. Nice walk, it is hot so take your time! It’s quite steep and lots of steps, so good mobility is a must. Worth a visit when in Rhodes. Cool restaurant at the top, when you get to the top, you deserve a cold drink! Glad I went. Nice experience. Tranquil and like a fairy land.

a good way to spend half your day while in Rhodes - we booked this tour mainly for the wine tasting experience, however whole day was enjoyable. The short stops for olive oil and the honey tasting at the Bee museum were a good addition to the day. The stop at butterfly valley really blew us away as we were not expecting how we would feel about this part of the tour.

Butterfly Valley and tastings - It was a good way to see the island of Rhodes and get out of the town. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Butterfly Valley was a pleasant stop out of the heat. Not a lot of butterflies, but definitely saw them. The tastings were good, especially the wine tastings.
