Outstanding tour! - Outstanding tour! Our driver, Vitaile, was excellent. Very personable and knowledgeable. We stopped here for the day on a cruise, and when we got back to the ship and listened to everyone's comments about their day, we clearly had the BEST day!

Highly recommended - It was a very pleasant tour, paced well and excellent value for money. The tasting experiences were fantastic, to the point that the wine tasting was the best we’ve been on yet. Thanks for a lovely day.

Definitely worth doing this - The butterfly valley was beautiful and a lovely shady walk with cafes to buy drinks. We saw quite a few butterflies even though it was the end of season but the waterfalls and pathways were enjoyable. The tour was a day really and we went to different areas for the oil honey and wine tasting, which was interesting and in a fantastic place. We went into the bee museum, and the olive oil place had a lot to tell us off local history. We had time for breakfast on Rhodes town first too which was great for us. We really enjoyed all aspects of the trip. The bus driver was also our guide and he was really good.

The wine tasting was... - The wine tasting was great. The tour guide brought out a charcuterie platter to pair with the wines. We bought wine and candy at the honey tasting. We also bought oil and liquor at the oil tasting. Really fun day, would highly recommend.

Great experience. - The Butterfly Valley was very pretty and we saw lots of butterflies. The wine tasting was the best, with our guide bringing out plates of meats, cheeses, olives and bread to pair with several wines. We bought a couple of bottles of wine to take home. We also bought some sesame and honey candy after the honey tasting at the Bee Museum. Very fun day, great guide, would highly recommend.

Breathtaking excursions and precious moments - During my stay on the island of Rhodes, I had the pleasure of using this service offering diverse and varied tourist routes at unbeatable Awards. Everything was perfectly organized, the logistics services quality, the choices of excursions carefully selected and the staff very kind.

Symi trip - The problem is the restaurant near by doesn't have water for toilets and people complain plus you pay €6 until 1800 and then people go free

Great tour, and really small scale! - Very small scale, we were a group of 4 in total, but that is really top. The vineyards were beautiful and there are many butterflies to be seen in the valley. The driver was very nice and answered all our questions. There is a lot to taste (much more than you think), and you drive from place to place. If you are going to Rhodes I would really recommend this tour!

Engaging, informative and hot! - This was a great tour in terms of fitting a little bit of everything in a day. My husband and I stayed in Rhodes and wanted to experience the local history and tastes. There were 11 of us on a bus which wasn't even full. The tour guides were so nice, knowledgeable and passionate about everything local. They cracked some jokes here and there. They found out it was my husband's and my Wedding Anniversary and out on a song on the bus for us and everyone clapped at then end. I would recommend this to everyone. Though be prepared for the heat and walking. We didn't feel rushed although at the end I think we may have overrun a little. I left with a smile on my face and appreciation for greek wine, honey, olive oil and the mind blowing amount of butterflies. *note* the butterflies sleep in the day but there are still alot the fly around, the picture don't do it justice.
