Superleuke ervaring! Heel mooie en beetje uitdagende wandeling in de prachtige natuur van Rhodos. Manuela heeft ons perfect begeleid en wist ook heel wat te vertellen over het eiland en de natuur. Halverwege de tocht kom je op een prachtig verlaten strand terecht waar je anders niet voorbij komt en waar je even kan uitrusten of een zwemmeke kan placeren. Aanrader!

We really enjoyed the tour. Our guide Manuela was very welcoming, paid attention to everyone, told us something about nature and Rhodes and answered questions. There was a beautiful beach and goats to see up close. The atmosphere at sunset was designed very nicely. We would do the tour again. Thank you Manuela!
