About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- cursedtable0 contributionsA fun way to see some of the sites.The scooters were easy to ride, and the guide Katrina did a good job of keeping everything fun. Not a lot of history on this tour, so don’t take it if you’re looking for that Would’ve liked to have more time in the mediaeval city, but overall, this was a good tour.Written September 10, 2024
- ejarnold0 contributionsFamily e scooter tourIt was great fun to learn how to ride the Trikke scooters, with the expert help of Caterina. Once we had got the hang of it, it was off on the tour with Caterina guiding and informing through the excellent earpieces. The Harbour was cool but once we got to the UNESCO World Heritage Medieval town it was breathtaking. Especially off the beaten track with the narrow old streets. Loved it thanks Caterina. Highly recommend thanks Jason Eleanor and girlsWritten July 21, 2024
- eekey0 contributionsHuge fun and a lovely way to see Rhodes townKatarina was so patient and helpful ensuring we could ride the scooters proficiently. It got easier as we rode around for sure! By the end we had no issues at all. What a fun trip! We took in some great views and rode around special parts of the old town. We listened to great personal stories as we rode....giving us insight into Greek life. Really fun thing to do. Can't recommend the ride or Katarina highly enough.Written June 3, 2024
- Estellekara0 contributionsTrikke TourKaterina was an amazing guide. It was my first time on a Trikke and she was very patient with me to get the hang of things, my husband has more experience and enjoyed himself. We started off slow so I could get used to the Trikke but once we went faster it was more fun. We took lots of photos and Katerina explained everything really well. It was a great experience!Written August 26, 2023
- Avizrun0 contributionsA recommendation for the Rhodes trike tourA charming and interesting experience. We were two adults and a teenager. The tour took 3 hours in the medieval city and the new city. The guide Katrina was charming and ensured a safe and interesting tour. A recommended and slightly different experience for a tour of this stunning cityWritten July 22, 2023
- mike-ngu0 contributionsBetter than walking!Katerina, our host, was absolutely fantastic. She took the time to make sure everyone was comfortable on the trikes and then set out at a leisurely pace through the old town. Zipping through the streets is a great way to get your bearings and then come back to explore. We found a great restaurant "at Thomas" in the quiet part away from the crowds. Highly recommend giving it a try.Written May 23, 2023
- Camper203919923510 contributionsNot what I expectedI thought we would see the medieval city main spots on trike instead of walking but we didn't. Just standing was tough for us 50+ streets are too narrow, crowded and sometimes in traffic. Guide did work hard to keep us safe and took us lot of places besides the old townWritten May 11, 2023
- Kerry H0 contributionsAt last, an explanatory exhibition!At last, a new but temporary exhibition is being held in the Spanish Knights'Inn, shown on some tourist guide maps as Building No. 6. The exhibition explains what the Knights' presence there was all about. A must see otherwise the old town will leave you feeling like you are walking around an Indiana Jones film set, with no idea what the heraldic shields mean or what the buildings once were.Written May 9, 2023
- SarinVA0 contributionsGreat ExperienceA great experience and an excellent way to visit the city. The guide was very knowledgeable, friendly, and caring. The trikke was fun and easy to use. despite the rain, we enjoyed the tour. Will highly recommend it.Written May 7, 2023
- jmcd4320 contributionsA Three Wheeled Trip to RememberA great way to get a proper view of the old town of Rhodos! Felt like being shown around the city by an old friend, and Catherine was a very patient guide who took her time to make sure we felt comfortable on the trikes before picking up the pace a little!Written May 3, 2023
- patriceg9410 contributionsWould not recommend booking with this tour operatorI booked this tour for our family of 5 through Viator. We were traveling by cruise ship and the wind was 50-60 knots, so our ship was unable to dock on 3/29/23. The Captain of the NCL Jade told us the wind made it unsafe to dock. I contacted the tour operator to request a refund, as it would also have been too windy to go on a trike tour. The operator referred me to Viator, and I called them also on 3/29/23. Viator advised today that they have been in contact with the tour operator, and the tour operator refused to refund. These were circumstances beyond our control, and would not have been a safe day for such a tour. I think this is very unreasonable. Never again. I will not recommend a tour company who will not consider extenuating circumstances and safety.Written April 18, 2023

- AubreyDMelton0 contributionsA great way to see Old Town!This was one of the first things we did when we got to Rhodes, and it is totally worth it! Theadore was very clear in his directions on how to use the Trikkes and was very safe. He knew where to take us for the best pictures in Old Town.

Cruise ship passengers - I do not recommend you book this tour
Our cruise ship cancelled the port stop due to high winds.
You will not receive a refund for this tour because you will not know to cancel more than 24 hours in advance.
Other cruise passengers who have been to this port recommend touring the area yourself as the town is at the port.

Dear customer,
I want to clarify some things about this particular tour.
1) You contacted us 1.5 hours after the start of the tour. While you knew it was windy from the night before, as well as that same morning, yet you did not send us any message or phone call to let us know that your cruise ship might not make it to port. We could contact the tour guide in time.
2) As I explained to you, we had already paid the tour guide, as well as we had cut the receipts, thus also the taxes. We couldn't cancel, according to our accountant.
3) Many times, we have refunded the money in emergency cases, and many times we have changed the tour start times in cases of cruise ship delays. Others we had been informed a few hours earlier so that we too could arrange things
4) This is the first 1-star review we have received, after years of operation and after over 100 5-star reviews from happy customers.
Kind Regards,
Rodos Tour Team

This was Awesome!!! Fortis was our fantastic guide for our 2 hour trip. He first kindly and clearly taught me and my 3 14yr old lads how to drive the electric scooters. We started like ‘a line of little ducklings’ close behind him so he could keep us all safe. We all had an earpiece so we could hear his clear instructions (especially great on the few short moments we had to navigate roads between pedestrian areas). He used the ear piece also to chat to us about things of historical interest as we were riding. We stopped very regularly to rest, take photos and learn more about the amazing places he was showing us.
With 3 teenagers in the sweltering heat I can not think of a more fantastic way to learn about the Greeks, Romans, Ottomans, Italians, traders, war mongers, sieges and military tactics!! All 3 boys and I had a thrilling time. Having been a little nervous of keeping the boys safe I honestly was totally at ease after about 4 minutes. Fortis was always helping us all to stay safe, he was excellent fun and brilliantly informative.
Can’t recommend this trip highly enough.
Do it early in your holiday so you get a feel for the city and get an overview of all that the city has to offer.
Magic. Thanks Fortis 🙌🏼 This made our holiday!!

What a fabulous experience! A great way to see the different parts of the city of Rhodes, including the medieval walled town, the harbour and the quiet residential area.
Our guide Theodore was so helpful and patient, and made us feel safe at all times. Really reassuring having the quick but thorough practice session before setting off along the streets of the town.
We really enjoyed our two hour session and would highly recommend it to visitors to the town , especially if you'd like to try something a little different to just walking around the numerous shops on offer.
The medieval part of the town is a must to visit and the Trikke tour enabled us to find our way around the town for a more in depth exploration on our own later.
Thank you!

Theodore could possibly be the kindest human on Earth.
My 10 and 11 year old boys were absolute brats. It was blazing hot, high 90s, and we had been putting on 5 miles per day through Greece and this was like day 6. They were tired, cranky and whiney and embarrassing. I'm just being honest. They were awful. And Theodore would not be fazed. He was upbeat, happy, positive, caring, entertaining and kind to them and our whole family. He was generous with his time, getting us water, making extra potty stops and shade stops. He was nice to cars in our way (you know how some guides and drivers scream at everyone that ever gets in front of you and makes you have to finagle around?) Not this guy. He'd just say, well, he's not supposed to park there but no problem, we'll just go around!
He took us to this secret moat area that was really cool, took us down streets I didn't think I would go down without him leading us (sooo tight!) He took us to a place where the kids could just be dorks and really open up the Trikes and go super fast and race each other. It was a great.
Lastly, that grocery store that he's operating out of, happens to have some of the cheapest prices on everything from flip flops, water shoes, Greek Towels (gifts for people at home)...I had been price shopping them the whole time and found their store was the cheapest...I go to check out and the people at the register say, oh, you were on the Tour? We'll give you an extra discount! So then it was even cheaper!
All and all I can't say enough about how awesome this was. Please book it! He deserves ALL the business because he's such a great human being!
PS. This is a terrible photo I've attached, but at least it shows the gorgeous views you'll see, my 11 year old taking another break and enjoying the free waters that Theodore packed for us and yes we recycled our plastic bag! :) And a tiny view of what the Trike looked like.

My fiance and I traveled to Rhodes on May 23rd, and the first activity to get our bearings of the place was this scooter tour! Fosit was an amazing tour guide. He gave such an honest and open-minded view of history and current events as they pertain to Rhodes Island. He shared with us stories that we couldn't have found out on our own. We attended a boat tour a couple days later with another company where the guide was not a Rhodes local and he offered us information that we were able to debunk because of the education we received from Fosit. Fosit told us about the real meaning behind the deer statues and the real story around the Collossus of Rhodes, and so we knew a truth that this other guide did not. Fosit demonstrated expertise and flexibility, offering us extended time when we had additional questions. We learned what it's like to be living in the city and raising children, and how events in the world and the country impact its citizens. We felt like we truly got a full picture and immersion into the culture and history of this spectacular place.

You should definitely do this!
We had the most amazing time, highlight of our holiday!
Fotis, our tour guide, was great! Clear and easy to understand instructions.
After an introduction we were shown how to safely use the scooters with a test ride - initially I was a little apprehensive but it was really easy, once you give it a few minutes practice.
Fotis made clear our safety was paramount, so even when we had to use roads (very little, most of the tour was in safer, pedestrian areas) we felt safe and looked after.
The tour was very informative, relaxed and such a fun experience!
Fotis is lovely, a genuinely nice guy, who did all he could to make it special and memorable for us (including taking some pictures of us together) - we even got to have some play on the Trikes on full power (They are so much fun and on their full setting plenty speedy!!!)!
We would happily do this again and highly recommend this as an experience the whole family could enjoy (as long as the pre-teens are big enough to ride)!

We 'trikked' through the medieval city and other less touristic parts of Rhodes today.
We were a bit anxious when we booked the tour because it was a new experience for us but very quickly, with the help of our patient guide, Theodor, we felt we had made the right choice. It went beyond our expectations and we had a lot of fun! Theodor is an excellent guide and very knowledgeable about the island. Thank you for making our day a very special one.

After navigating our way to the Super Market Golden Corner, Theodore met us with a huge smile and instantly became a friend. Our “trikke training” put us at ease about riding around the busy streets of the city. Our group of 4 followed Theodore along the waterfront, through the crowds of tourists and into the quiet residential section of Rhodes. The use of wireless headsets allowed us to hear every word of Theodore’s suggestions, comments and history of this place that he obviously loves. The trikes are great, allowing you to zip around town, be “above the crowd” for the best views, and see much more than you’d ever see on foot. Thanks Theodore, we had a great morning with you and will recommend this trip to any one visiting Rhodes!

This tour was great! The trikkes are easy to ride, and they allowed us to see a lot more than we would have if we had walked around the medieval city. Katherine, our tour guide, was very friendly and willing to answer any questions. She also did a great job at making sure we were all safely riding the trikkes at all times and especially around busy areas.
