Acropolis of Lindos

Ascend to a Stunning Acropolis with Sweeping Aegean Views Hike up to an ancient acropolis with spectacular vistas of the azure sea and a whitewashed town. Wear comfortable walking shoes, then meet your guide for a scenic drive past picturesque hamlets, lush vineyards and scenic olive groves. In the beautiful whitewashed village of Lindos, walk through narrow cobblestone streets to the foot of the Acropolis. There are 195 steps to the top of the rocky outcropping, and your effort will be rewarded with the sight of the Doric Temple of Lindian Athena, enclosed within the walls of the Castle of the Knights. You can also admire the 18th-century frescoes of the Byzantine Church of St. John. Views of the turquoise sea, Lindos and the small fishing village of Psarto, where St. Paul is said to have landed, are spectacular. Later, descend back to Lindos, where you will board your motor coach and return to your ship. * Demanding - Physically challenging activities, including extensive walks, hiking, riding, water sports, and high altitude activities.
