We booked this trip with our TUI rep on our first day in Rhodes. Last time it was just my wife and I, we had a blast and Stavros (our professional driver) is delightfully enthusiastic about all things Rhodes and this enthusiasm is infectious at the least. This trip we brought along my daughter (nearly 16 yo) and her bestie. So two teenagers on the trip with us. Keeping teenagers engaged without them worrying about streaks (??) etc can be a challenge. Well, they barely looked at their phones all day except to take vids and pictures and to confirm our altitude when climbing up into the hills. I did think it would be hard to beat our trip four years ago but somehow the team have developed it further with more time on off-road routes, further sites of interest and the lovely engaging commentary from our driver Mr Wilson - top man! The day is fun and stress free with relaxed and varied stops including the honey stop where you get to try lots of lovely foods, plenty of chances for great pictures and a nice lunch stop. We took 20 euro each to cover lunch and bits and bobs and came home with change even though my wife... We may be a little biased as we did the 4x4 Safari back in 2015 and loved it then.

We took 20 euro each to cover lunch and bits and bobs and came home with change even though my wife couldn't resist filling our suitcase with unique honey products and a little stone painted like a bee!
The girls loved the trip and on the journey home from the airport they said it was the best excursion we did (by miles) and they would love to do it again. They plan to holiday together in a few years and said they could book themselves on it too! Great success.
The Landrovers comfortably seat 8 passengers, all with seat belts, the 'hair conditioning' works well - the windows are open. Comfy even when on the rougher sections. It was great to see how this has developed too and it will no doubt keep improving as the whole team were very keen to get feedback on every stage. What a fab way to develop their product.
Thanks again to Stavros, Mr Wilson and the rest of the team. p.s. the photo is from 2015, Stavros has got younger since. More
