We had a wonderful day in Rhodes with Michael as our driver and guide. We are two couples traveling together and Michael was in touch with me the day before our tour to arrange pick up at the cruise port. Michael was waiting as promised with his Mercedes van and cold waters for the day. Michael is friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He provided ample information regarding Rhodes and Greek history. He took us to a variety of interesting and scenic stops. Highlights were a historic family home (quite enjoyable), a ceramic workshop with beautiful works and friendly artisans and lunch at a stunning harbor side restaurant - incredibly fresh and delicious! The day was crowned by a stop in the historic town of Lindos and a hike to Lindos Castle. We were delivered back to our ship at the scheduled time. We all had a marvelous time due to the care and expertise of Michael I. We parted as if we were longtime friends. Each of us highly recommend Michael as a tour guide in Rhodes. We would definitely hire him again and we are confident of his ability to make anyone’s day in Rhodes a memorable vacation highlight.

My name is Michael, I was born in Rhodes Island by Greek parents who were born in the picturesque village of Platania. Since 2009 I involve into tourism. The main reason is to be part of the unconditional Greek hospitality which is famous around the world. This is a felling every guest must feel while their staying. Rhodes Island, as a crossroad between East and West, combines the existence of different cultures and sightseeing untouchable by the time, as History is stronger than time. The beauty of nature, the harmony of Greek blue, the small village squares, all set up for the same reason: to make you feel like home. I am a professional tour-driver who loves sharing time with guests in a tour, my 16 years of experience in private tours make me feel very proud. I would like to mention that I am unable to follow my guests in archaeological sites, as I am not an official licence tour guide. If I am not available I can always recommend one of the other ToursByLocals guide listed in Rhodes. I am a professional tour-driver with sixteen years of experience in private tours I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside of the historical monuments. INFO: It is possible to customise any of my tours by your preference.

Our guide Michael went above and beyond during our all day tour of the island. The tour was full of interesting things to see, amazing food to taste, experiences like pottery making, and a lot of history. Michael is patience with us and very kind. We couldn’t recommend this tour enough.
Michael was excellent & thankfully was able to accomodate us in changing days after the ship changed the itinerary. Michael’s knowledge & love for the area made it easy for us to enjoy the day & learn. Keeping away from the crowds & seeing the sites was great plus the stop for lunch was a great experience. The food was exceptional as was the location. Everything we were looking for was accommodated. I would recommend Michael to family, friends & anyone visiting Rhodes to have a great day.🤩
We had a wonderful experience on a private tour with Michael of Rhodes! He has a lot of knowledge about the history and culture of the island. He showed us the highlights of the island including the ones that you can’t find on your own. The pace was relaxed, allowing us to fully take in the beauty of the island without feeling rushed. This tour is highly recommended for anyone visiting Rhodes. Thank you again for this unforgettable day Michael!
Michael was at the port waiting for us with a sign with our name. He should us around the villages of Rhodes and took us to multiple places we would have never been able to see or enjoyed with a big tour. He customized the tour to what we are interested in, explained local customs and answered millions of questions we had. Wish you had more then 5 stars because he deserves it!
