Six hundred years ago, a one-eyed engineer stood inside these walls and listened for the sound of an empire tunnelling beneath his feet. Suleiman the Magnificent had come for Rhodes with one of the largest armies the world had ever seen, and the fight went underground, in the dark. That is one story on this self-guided walking tour of Rhodes Old Town, narrated through the Tourific app so you walk at your own pace and listen in your own language. Along the way, you meet knights who organised themselves by homeland along one medieval street, gates built as defensive machines, a sultan who took the city with unexpected grace, and a synagogue with a wartime rescue you will not forget. Start whenever you like, pause for coffee, and pick up where you left off. The audio works offline once downloaded. Over 25,000 travelers have used our self-guided tours, and this Rhodes audio tour comes with a full refund guarantee. Press play at the water and let the story roll.

    Nice, Nice, Nice! App, Guide and Old Town.

    The experience of writing about the experience was stressful 🙃. EE/NOVA dropped out at the last leg and lost the lot! The experience itself was excellent. Easy to purchase. Slightly more difficult to synch with Tourific, but still no problem. App was great to use. Great commentary and retelling of myth visit history. Lots of information i thought i would know but didn't. The map was very accurate on your position and direction of travel. Able to stop / start at will. The app etc was highly recommended and seeing the Old Town even more highly recommended 👌 👍.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're so glad the accurate map, great commentary, and easy stop/start made exploring the Old Town so memorable. Hope to see you on another Tourific walk soon!

    Rhodes Old Town Self Guided Tour of Sieges and Triumph: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rhodes.

    How much does Rhodes Old Town Self Guided Tour of Sieges and Triumph cost?

    +

    Prices start at $9 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rhodes usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Rhodes Old Town Self Guided Tour of Sieges and Triumph take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rhodes is not rushed.

    Is Rhodes Old Town Self Guided Tour of Sieges and Triumph worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rhodes, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Rhodes Old Town Self Guided Tour of Sieges and Triumph?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Rhodes Old Town Self Guided Tour of Sieges and Triumph suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Rhodes Old Town Self Guided Tour of Sieges and Triumph?

    +

    Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rhodes can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rhodes and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Rhodes Old Town Self Guided Tour of Sieges and Triumph start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rhodes within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Rhodes?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Rhodes experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Makarounas Fishing Boat Trip with swimming stop and BBQ on board, Athens cruise: Agistri, Moni/Metopi, Aegina with lunch & drinks, Rhodes Sea Kayaking Tour – The Pirates Route. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Rhodes?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Rhodes?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Rhodes Old Town Self Guided Tour of Sieges and Triumph?

    +

Listen to the tour anytime, as many times as you; Audio and written guide included; 100% Satisfaction Guarantee: If you don’t love the tour, write to us for a full refund; Offline access to the tour (no internet connection needed) once tour is downloaded; and Images to identify stops and in app interactive map for navigation.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Rhodes Old Town Self Guided Tour of Sieges and Triumph?
