Akti Imperial Hotel, Rhodes (5-star)

On day 2 we travel the short distance to the UNESCO-protected medieval city of Rhodes, home to the Knights Hospitaller. A local guide takes us on a walking tour, exploring the gates, towers, squares and churches, as well as the Castle of Knights, encased within a 4km wall. Whilst in Rhodes, we’ll also visit the picture-postcard village of Lindos in the south of the island overlooked by its acropolis. The rest of our stay is free; you might choose to simply relax and enjoy the hotel’s excellent facilities or perhaps return to the city of Rhodes to enjoy its shady squares and tavernas. There will also be optional tours available.

Here we visit the elaborate 18th-century monastery of Archangel Michael, perhaps one of the most interesting churches on the island. We conclude our tour with a short cruise to the tiny islet of Sesklia, where the Athenians sought refuge from the Spartans during the Peloponnese War. We’ll enjoy a BBQ lunch on the beach, before making our way back, stopping on the way in the beautiful natural bay of St George’s to enjoy the superb scenery and tranquil atmosphere.
