10 reviewed
The green heart of the island: shaded streams, the butterfly gorge in summer, the Seven Springs walk to a hidden lake. Here are the trips that take you inland, often paired with Lindos or Filerimos, with durations, what the walking is really like, and which suit younger legs.
A 7-hour Rhodes day trip to Seven Springs and Lindos, with a tunnel walk, free time to swim, and optional Acropolis visits.

“what a brilliant Guide she had a sense of humour that was entertaining the seven springs was a bit of a disappointment but did nor reflect ob the tour. Lindos was a great experience”
Half-day bus trip in Rhodes for ancient ruins, peacocks, and a 1 km Valley of Butterflies walk with handy maps and hotel pickup.
“Really loved the experience, the transport was on time and the guide was friendly and informative. Both parts of the trip were enjoyable. The coach was air conditioned and comfortable. We had a message to give us the relevant information for pick up, all in all great time had!”
Full-day coach tour from Rhodes to Lindos and Seven Springs: Lindos lanes, Acropolis views with 200+ steps, then a piney spring tunnel.
“The excursion in general was pretty okey. Everything on time. The only small detail is that it should be first Lindos and then 7 springs due to the temperature in Lindos to go to the Acropolis.”
Rhodes half-day bus trip to Butterfly Valley with hotel pickup and 2 hours to stroll shaded paths, streams, and butterfly sightings.
“Great place, saw plenty of butterflies, hidden at first, on the trees, further you go, more you see. Lovely environment, plenty of mini waterfalls and streams, cool and shaded too. Would recommend.”
Rhodes half-day coach trip to Butterfly Valley and Filerimos Hill: shaded walks, Athena ruins, and an 18m Italian cross.
“Everything went well. However, it would have been nice to have more time at Filerimos, even half an hour, maybe also at the Butterfly valley.”
Rhodes butterfly valley plus a mini cruise to Chalki. See red-brown butterflies, enjoy sea views, then unwind on a quiet island.
“the transport, staff and Halki were absolutely amazing. we arrived early at the butterfly village and it was beautiful, so many butterflies and I could imagine it would be amazing to do if crowds were controlled and there were staff to remind visitors to keep the noise down instead of just signs. it was a personal preference but there were just too many people within 20 minutes of arriving and we actually turned around and left. Halki and the rest of the day was just perfection. everything we hoped for and more! we had the most beautiful day after the butterfly village. a trip straight to Haliki is definitely recommended…”
Rhodes half-day tour with Butterfly Valley, bee museum tastings, wine, ancient olive oil, and honey in a small group with pickup options.
“A chaotic start to the morning with lots of people from different groups arriving in a small street at the same time to be sorted into their respective tours. It was obvious that the staff were stressed and in some cases were quite aggressive towards the customers- not a relaxing start to the day. I was pleasantly surprised that the tour wasn't cancelled although there were only 3 of us-this gave it quite a VIP feel and our guide was very friendly and chatty about the life and history of Rhodes. I enjoyed the walk through the Butterfly Valley but the foodie part of the tour was very disappointing. The…”
A Rhodes nature day trip with pickup and self-guided trails at Butterfly Valley and Seven Springs, plus season-dependent butterfly viewing.
“Viator appointed (Jherrica) staff, who is irresponsible, careless. She willingly put different hotel name, which was far far away from the hotel I stayed, took money despite cancelled over the phone and explained in details. Another staff (Ariel) confirmed that first person wrongly put my hotel name after played the recorded conversation, initially was reluctant to refund and later on promised that he will return within 24-48 hours. Now more than 72 hours, no refund. However my bank account shows that Viator took money. My son is very upset, spoiled out trip, it's a scam.”
Air-conditioned bus trip from Rhodes to Seven Springs and Lindos, with hotel pickup, free tunnel lake walk, and plenty of time to explore.
“So relaxing at Springs, we enjoyed the path to the lake! The donkey ride up to Acropolis of Lindos was a very nice experience!! The view from the top was amazing! Great value of money.”
Rhodes day trip with hotel pickup: Lindos village and optional Acropolis climb, plus Butterfly Valley with rare butterflies and scenic views.
“Really enjoyed the day to Butterfly Valley as well as Lindos. We saw so many butterflies flying around and enjoyed that you could view it at your own pace. Be prepared for stairs, but it's definitely worth it. Time in Lindos was great as well as viewing the Acropolis. More stairs here but views were worth the hike up to the top. Margarita & Konstantinos were great and enjoyed having a smaller group.”
Small-group half day in Rhodes: hilltop Filerimos Monastery, the Golgotha cross views, then an independent Valley of the Butterflies walk.
“We were collected in a comfortable aircon coach and taken first to Filerimos hill which had stunning view's and the peacocks were in abundance with the males happy to perform for you. Then we went to the butterflies which I think was still a little early for the full amount to be there but there was still plenty to see and the walk up the valley was stunning but it is a hard climb if you want to get to the top. But once up there you can have have cold drinks and ices from cafe. This was a great half day trip and Kalibra were so helpful as we…”

“I loved seeing all the butterflies and it was a nice stroll through the park. It was great to spend in Chalki, its a cute small town next to the water!”
