Hello everyone, Newby here, so please bare with me if this question has been asked before. I will be arriving in Rhodes on Friday evening, and wondering if its cheaper to prebook a taxi or just jump in a taxi at the airport, as not sure if there is a standard rate or not. Thanks

Hi Sandra,
Thanks for stopping by!
If you have a chance to pre-book a taxi I would unless the cost is significantly higher, otherwise finding a taxi might work. Have a great trip to Rhodes!
 
Just take a taxi from outside the arrivals building.Always plenty waiting for flights.Fares are set with prices on a board at the rank..

While opting for a taxi may seem like the convenient option at first glance, there are certain drawbacks to take into account. During peak times at the airport, such as busy travel seasons or peak arrival hours, there is a possibility of extended wait times for taxi services. Pre book a taxi or private transfer through a travel agency (cheaper option) is the best choice.
 
Generally speaking, airport taxis in Rhodes operate with set fares depending on the destination, but they can sometimes be slightly higher at night or during peak hours. Pre-booking usually gives you a fixed rate, peace of mind, and someone waiting for you on arrival - which is great after a long flight.
To get an idea of what a reliable pre-booked service should feel like, you can check out www.miamilimocar.com - while they’re based in Miami, they’re known for clear pricing and punctual service. That’s the kind of standard you’ll want to look for when booking in Rhodes.

What Happened to the Colossus of Rhodes?

I’ve been reading about Colossus of Rhodes and realized I don’t actually know what happened to it. I know it was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and that it stood somewhere near the harbor in Rhodes, but beyond that, the details are a bit fuzzy for me.

Did it collapse because of an earthquake? And if so, what happened to the remains afterward? I’ve heard different versions—some say it stayed in pieces for a long time, others say it was eventually removed or sold off.

Also, is there any real evidence of exactly where it stood, or is that still debated? Curious to hear what people know or have learned, especially if you’ve visited Rhodes and seen any related sites or history in person.

What do you love most about Rhodes?

I’ve been reading about Rhodes lately, and the more I learn, the more it seems like a place that offers a little bit of everything. The island has such an interesting mix of history, beaches, beautiful villages, and great food. The Old Town alone looks incredible, with its medieval streets, stone buildings, and all that history around every corner.

At the same time, people talk a lot about the beaches, the clear water, and places like Lindos with its white houses and views of the acropolis. It seems like Rhodes manages to balance culture, scenery, and relaxation really well.

For those of you who have visited, what stands out the most when you think back on your trip? Was it a specific place, like a beach or village, or more the overall atmosphere of the island?

I’d love to hear what made Rhodes special for you and what left the biggest impression.
