Hi ! I’m Mike, born and raised in Rhodes, and I’m passionate about sharing my island’s beauty and heritage. My parents came from Karpathos, a neighboring island. I was raised in the Medieval town, where I spent my childhood exploring its historic alleys, before moving with my family in the modern city. Like most locals I work hard during the seven - months tourist season, and in the off-season, you’ll find me cycling, swimming, or indulging in a good book—all things that make life on Rhodes even more enjoyable. I’ve been in the tourism industry since my teenage years, witnessing firsthand the transformation of Rhodes into a world-class destination. Today, I run a private tour agency, dedicated to crafting personalized experiences for visitors who want to explore the real Rhodes beyond the typical tourist spots. My goal? To make sure my guests get the most out of their visit and leave with unforgettable memories of my homeland. Rhodes is a truly blessed island—with over 300 days of sunshine, a rich historical heritage, and breathtaking natural landscapes, it’s the perfect destination for all types of travelers. Whether you're drawn to ancient history, stunning beaches, or charming villages, Rhodes has something special to offer. I am looking forward to introduce you to Rhodes and share its incredible stories, landscapes, and hidden gems. Let’s explore together! • I am a professional tour - driver with extensive knowledge of Rhodian history, culture and nature. • I 'm organizing and delivering private tours for the last 20 years while I also manage a local tour agency . • My thoroughly designed itineraries cover the whole island and I let customers to set the pace. • I am fluent in English and my vehicle is a Mercedes Benz W 213. * Upon request , I can accommodate groups as well. I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside of historical monuments.

Rhodes was a fabulous cruise destination, and Mike was a superior guide! He was extremely knowledgeable and informative, and he had the day well planned. We saw many medieval sites in the Old Town of Rhodes, including the Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes, and so much more! We made a stop at a local ceramics facility and watched as the artist crafted...

Taking this Rhodes tour with Mike was the best decision we could've made. Not only did Mike take us to the usual spots but he took us where other tours won't. He was very informative, helpful and was fun to be with. I would definitely recommend this tour to family and friends. Thank you Mike for being part of our family vacation.

This was a well organized trip. Mike got us to all the highlights in the areas we wanted to see. He was very informative and we understood everything. He said we had one of the best meals we had on any vacation when he brought us to a place for some fish and it was prepared perfectly and made it a fun afternoon. I would certainly suggest Mike as a caring and capable guide...

Dear Joe, Thank you for your kind words and for being such a great company! Even with the weather not being on our side, I’m glad that we managed to cover all the highlights you were looking for. That fish restaurant is a personal favorite of mine, and seeing you enjoy it really topped off the afternoon. I'd be happy to show you around Rhodes again anytime. — Mike

We had a great full day tour with Mike. He took us to all the major sites on the island — both historical and cultural, as well much of the natural scenery on the island of Rhodes. He had great insights that he provided along the way. He was an excellent guide for us, and he provided us a fun experience and a lot of great information.
