(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Church of Our Lady of Filerimos
Mt. Filerimos, just outside the capital Rhodes (15km), is a hill 267m. high, overlooking the small town of Ialyssos and the bay of Ixia and Trianda. From its top you can enjoy a panoramic view of the Aegean with turquoise waters near the shore and deep blue as it stretches toward coast of the Asia Minor. A winding road leads to the top of the hill where, in relatively wide plateau, the Monastery of Filerimos is located. This place is also an important archeological site; here once stood the Acropolis of the ancient town of Ialyssos with an important temple dedicated to Athena Polias.
Old Town of Rhodes
Return to Rhodes and begin a guided walk of the old walled city to the Porte d’ Amboisc. It will be a pleasure to stroll the Street of the Knights with its medieval buildings, winding alleys, towers, turrets and emblazons facades. Then visit the impressive Palace of Grand Master and have the chance to see, among others, the superb mosaics.
