Why go

This free-order collection offers possible outings across Rhodes, not a route to complete in one day. Afantou Village and Archangelos Village offer a village-focused alternative to the northern capital; Pefkos points toward a beach-centred stay. Fanes Village and Gennadi Village add choices beyond Rhodes city. Pick one part of the island and give it time, rather than treating every settlement as a quick stop. Different communities and landscapes broaden a trip beyond the Old Town.

Useful to know

  • Choose a coastal or inland focus before setting out from Rhodes city.
  • Give a selected settlement time rather than attempting every village in one day.
