Greece · WINE TOURS IN RHODES
Good wine tours in Rhodes fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 10 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Taste three Greek wines with a private sommelier in Rhodes, paired with local bites and a friendly lesson on Greek wine culture.
“I've been to quite a few wine tastings, but this one is definitely the most interesting and informative one I've been too.”
Tour a Rhodes family vineyard, taste local wines and souma, prepare Greek dishes, and enjoy a generous 10-course lunch with transfers.
“The description does not match the event! I thought we had signed up for a 10 course Greek cooking class. It was a wine tasting and wine educational event that was followed by a light preparation of tzatziki, eggplant salad and domaldres. We thought the entire event was 4 hours but that was time at place. We were on a cruise and it did not allow us to enjoy the town afterwards. The day was enjoyable and I still gave it 5 stars as host and food were both good.”
Taste Greek wines with a private sommelier at 10GR in Rhodes, choosing a beginner, wine lover, or expert session with local pairings.
“Was a lovely experience, he was very knowledgeable, a lovely evening with lovely food and wine, I really recommend.”
Review of Rhodes tour from the cruise port with Lindos, Old Town, ceramic crafts, wine, olive oil, and honey tasting.
“Lindos the vineyard and Rhodes old town were beautiful. Diana the tour guide was knowledgeable but not overly friendly. It all felt too rushed. Lunch of pre made sandwiches was not pleasant standing in a rest stop off the road. Would have preferred either getting more time in Lindos and eating lunch there or paying extra and having a catered lunch at the vineyard. The last part in Rhodes old town felt like an afterthought. Certain things didn’t make sense to like why I had to walk to a collection point when they drove past my hotel, why it says a start time of 9:30 and by the time they’d…”
Cook Greek classics, taste Rhodian wines, visit Apollona’s women’s cooperative, and share a village lunch for a flavorful Rhodes day.
“We had a fantastic time, picked up on time from our hotel by Pano and George who were friendly and knowledgeable. They drove us to a traditional Greek village and hosted a cooking experience, we then took a short walk to do some local wine tasting and then back to the taverna to eat what we had made plus fresh bread, pitta and a main dish, there was so much food and everything was delicious. Afterward we went for Greek coffee at another location and then headed back, it was a wonderful trip which we highly recommend.”
Taste Rhodes through vineyard walks, Greek cooking, wine, souma, and an 11-course lunch at a welcoming family winery.
“Small family vineyard, very good wine, and yummy food! Perfect tour away from the crowds and with local people. Jason was an excellent host.”
Cook Rhodian dishes, taste local wine, visit a village cooperative, and enjoy lunch and Greek coffee in rural Apollona.
“Brilliant day out well worth doing. Really get to experience the traditional culture of the island. Was the best activity we did on our trip this summer.”
Explore Rhodes, Lindos, Mandraki, the medieval Old Town, ceramics, wine, olive oil, and honey in a practical six-hour guided tour.
“Diana our guide was good and knowledgeable but the wine and olive oil tasting was a massive disappointment. Just 3 wines - white, rosa, and red. And just one olive oil which the waiter didn't tell us anything about it. Pottery place was good but extremely expensive.”
See Lindos, Rhodes Old Town, local ceramics, wine, olive oil, and honey on a shore tour with port pickup and on-time return.
“Had a great day with Johanna & Dimitri. We saw some great things, had enough free time to explore and all the locations were very good. The bonus was to be picked up, appreciated that very much!”
Explore Rhodes on a six-hour shore tour with Lindos, Mandraki Harbour, medieval Old Town, pottery, wine, honey, and olive oil tastings.
“After taking a couple ship tours, we decided we'd likely never again want to be herded around in a large group, often not being able to hear the guide, not being given enough time to look or shop - because someone in the group has been lagging behind, visiting just the same tourist areas that everyone else goes to, and often, being taken to places of business that the cruise ship has 'arrangements' with. Over the years we have worked with many private operators with scores of travelers. Last October we decided to explore Rhodes, Greece with Telia Tours. This was definitely five star service and I'd have no hesitation…”
Pick a coastline, a ruin or a kitchen.
