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.

Is October a Good Time to Visit Rhodes?

I’m considering a trip to Rhodes this October because I found a really good deal on flights, and now I’m trying to decide if I should go for it!

I’ve been looking into the weather, but I’d love to hear from people who have actually visited Rhodes in October. Is it still warm enough to spend time at the beach and swim, or does the weather start becoming unpredictable by then? I don’t necessarily need extremely hot weather, but I would like some sunshine and nice days for exploring.

I’m also wondering what Rhodes is like that time of year in terms of restaurants, shops, attractions, and crowds. Are most things still open, especially in Rhodes Town and Lindos?

Would you recommend visiting Rhodes in October, or is it better to save the trip for earlier in the season?

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 Part of Rhodes Feels Most “Local”?

I might be visiting friends in Rhodes this summer, and I’m trying to figure out which parts of the island feel the most local and authentic versus heavily touristy.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ll definitely check out the major spots and beaches, but I usually enjoy the places where you can actually slow down a little, grab a coffee, sit at a taverna, and get more of a feel for everyday life on the island.

My friends have mentioned that Rhodes has very different vibes depending on where you are, especially once you get away from the main tourist areas.

So I’m curious what people here would recommend. Are there any places that really capture the atmosphere of the island beyond the typical tourist experience?
