Rhodes is the largest of the Dodecanese islands and one of the most visited in the Mediterranean. Its medieval Old Town (UNESCO), the Acropolis of Lindos, and a well-developed resort coast from Faliraki to Ixia make it a year-round destination for leisure groups, cruise passengers, and incentive travel. The island is 78 km long, requiring genuine coach logistics for groups wanting to explore beyond the immediate resort area.
Rhodes operators are experienced with the full range of group types: UK and Scandinavian package holiday coach transfers, Mediterranean cruise shore excursions, and high-end incentive groups based in five-star hotels on the north-east coast. The main road network is good but narrows significantly in the interior and southern parts of the island.
Rhodes Diagoras Airport (RHO) is 14 km south-west of Rhodes Town on the west coast. Transfer times: Rhodes Town (20–30 min), Faliraki (30 min), Ixia (15 min), Lindos (1.5 hrs from airport).
| Destination | From Rhodes Town | Drive time |
|---|---|---|
| Valley of the Butterflies (Petaloudes) | 25 km | 30 min |
| Ancient Kamiros | 35 km | 45 min |
| Lindos (Acropolis) | 55 km | 1 hr |
| Monolithos castle | 70 km | 1.25 hrs |
| Embonas (wine village, Attavyros mountain) | 65 km | 1 hr |
As a rough guide, a minibus (up to 19 seats) in Rhodes runs around 280 to 500 EUR per day, a midi-coach (around 35 seats) around 460 to 820 EUR per day, and a full-size coach (49 to 55 seats) around 680 to 1,250 EUR per day. As a Dodecanese island, Rhodes has a limited local fleet that fills fast in high summer, so book well ahead for July and August. The final figure depends on your route, the date, and how long you need the vehicle and driver. We confirm a fixed price with no hidden charges, so send your exact details for a free quote.
