Açıklama

 Full day guided bus tour – Stops: 7 Springs (1.15 hr) + Lindos (3.5 hrs) + Extra panoramic stop in Lindos for photos!
One of the most charming destinations of Rhodes; Seven Springs (35-minute drive from the city) is a scenic nature spot located on the Eastern part of Rhodes island. It is named after the seven natural springs that flow into a small lake, creating a peaceful oasis amidst the surrounding pine forest. The springs with their crystal – clear waters, contribute to the lush greenery and vibrant ecosystem of the area.
Visitors to Seven Springs can enjoy a tranquil walk along shaded pathways that wind through the forest, crossing wooden bridges and passing by babbling streams. The cool, refreshing ambiance makes it a popular retreat from the summer heat.
Our buses always stop on the main road of Seven Springs and the driver will show you the stone – paved path to the Springs which is 10 minutes on foot and will also inform you of the exact time you should return to the bus. Your free time to 7 Springs is 1.15 hour which is enough time to discover the area.
The access to the lake is very popular for visitors and is a unique experience. If you feel adventurous enough, you can walk through the 186-meter long, very narrow and dark tunnel to get to the lake (excited already?!). The tunnel, constructed back in 1931 leads the water of the seven springs and river Loutanis to the lake. Walking through the dark tunnel with your feet in the running fresh water is an exciting experience but don’t try it if you are claustrophobic. As an alternative route you can simply follow a walking path to the lake.
The area also offers services such a coffee shop where visitors can enjoy a refreshment while appreciating the natural beauty. The forest is suitable for those who like walking around and it is common to see peacocks roaming freely in this area, adding a touch of charm to the ambiance.
Whether you are seeking a peaceful stroll, a cool escape from the sun or a unique natural setting, Seven Springs is a delightful destination that combines scenic beauty, tranquility and a touch of adventure.
Leaving the Seven Springs, we will continue driving (30 minutes) to Lindos. The drop off & pick up point in Lindos is at the main square (Krana square) of Lindos. The driver will inform you how to reach on foot or by shuttle bus the center of the village and the exact time of our departure. 
Lindos is one of the most popular locations in Greece !  At first sight, you will admire the dramatic natural landscape which is enhanced by the picturesque quality of the town built in a more recent past.  Over the calm sea waters of a wide rocky-bay, white-washed,  flat-roofed houses rise up a slope from a golden, sandy beach, forming a light belt around the northern side of the hill where the Acropolis of Lindos is enthroned. At a closer look you can see behind the warlike walls, a very dainty little temple which was once dedicated to the goddess Athena Lindia.
During your 3.5-hours stay, you will realize that this is an unforgettable tour because of the real atmosphere, the friendly inhabitants and the lovely beaches. You can explore the village, strolling through the small narrow streets dotted with quaint boutiques, white-washed houses, wonderful souvenir shops and small bars and restaurants that boast beautiful terraces and views out to the sea. Don’t miss out on the donkey ride which is a very popular way to discover all the alleyways of the village of Lindos or go up to the Acropolis. 
Lindos is famous for its traditional architecture. The houses are built in a unique style with stone walls and pebble mosaics adorning the courtyards. Wander through the narrow streets lined with charming houses and discover the local shops and tavernas.
If you prefer ancient sites, then visiting the Acropolis of Lindos is a must! Explore the well – preserved ruins of temples, the ancient theater and the remains of the castle. The view from the top is breathtaking! For history enthusiasts, a visit to the Lindos Museum is highly recommended. It showcases artifacts and exhibits that provide insights into the ancient and medieval history of the village and the surrounded area. Don’t miss also the Church of Panagia, a significant religious site which is located in the heart of the village. It is a small but intricate chapel that features a typically Rhodian campanile tower and impressive pebble mosaic flooring. (The Entrance fee for visiting Acropolis is 12,00 Euro).
Picturesque, alleys, breathtaking views, traditional aromas and cosmopolitan attitude will ensure this a day tour no one can resist!
On the way back, we will make a short photo stop (5 minutes) at the Amphitheatre Hill where you can have the opportunity to take amazing photos of Lindos, the perfect way to end your tour.
