first visit to Rhodes...
Posted: Sat August 1, 2009 04:55 AM UTC

Reviewed the VT restaurant recs but was wondering if anyone knows of any new/interesting restaurants/tavernas/hole in the wall places. Can be cheap or expensive (but those usually aren't very satisfying). Heading to Rhodes this September.

Nisos Nisyros

Question by Angie about Nysiros Pali
Posted: Wed July 15, 2009 04:16 AM UTC

Hello and thank you in advance
Would anyone have any information about a hotel in Nysiros that is run by a family by the name of Fouyaxis please?
The lady is Sophie and her husband is George. I have heard about this family run hotel and cannot seem to be able to locate it to have a closer look etc...
Any information AT ALL would be greatly appreciated.
The only address I can find for it even though I know the island is small is:
Pali Dode Canissos (I think that's right).
Kindest regards,
Angie

Crete to Rhodes
Posted: Tue May 26, 2009 01:09 PM UTC

I am looking at possibly going to Rhodes from Crete as part of an itinerary. I would be in Heraklion. So far I've discovered in my research that ferries only go from the east part of Crete Island. is this true? And if I need to get to either Hania or Nikolas Agiolaos to get the ferry, how do I get there?

I also found that the only direct flight is with Olympic Airlines and its an evening flight. Everything else goes via Athens.

Kos Island

Santorini to Kos
Posted: Wed May 6, 2009 08:49 AM UTC

We are looking to travel from Santorini to Kos. Is our only option a ferry from greekferries.com. We are not against taking an overnight ferry, but we would like to have as much time as possible on the islands. Are there any other options? Do you know of any island on the way that would could possible stop at to break up the trip? Any hydrofoils that go between Santorini and Kos?

Rodos (City)

Ferry/catamaran departure points
Posted: Sun April 5, 2009 08:19 AM UTC

Hi all. As we are now flying into Rhodes in September rather than Athens, we have a different set of ferry options to plot and plan:-

Dodekanese Seaways Cat (presumably following last year's schedule) 8.30am up to Lipsi

ANEK Lines at 07.00 to Anafi (tempted but it's 12 hours on the boat via Halki, Karpathos &Kassos - so that would be interesting)

ANES Lines to Nissyros at 9am to Tilos/Nissyros

Blue Star at 17.30 up to Leros.

Last time I caught a ferry from Rhodes it was either the Nissos Kalymnos or a DANE/GA boat and it went from Kolona (middle harbour), so I presume that Blue Star, ANES and ANEK go from there too - can anyone confirm this. We're staying just near Akandia (3rd harbour) so nowhere's that far.

But...I have no idea where the Dodekanese Seaways cat goes from? The old, original, Nissos Kalymnos berth shoreside in Kolona? Or Mandraki?

I'm assuming that the hydrofoils still leave from Mandraki near the "bandstand"

Any info gratefully received! Only 5 months to go!
