Symi Island + Panormitis Monasteries Day Trip

  • 11 reviews | 227 travellers
    Passage through Panormitis is essential. Cozy atmosphere at the monastery. Very beautiful frescoes. Saint Michael watches over us. Saint Georges Bay. passage too fast. we would have to find a solution to really be able to swim there and stay there for at least half an hour. Arrival in Symi Town, magnificent with its colorful houses and their pediments which are reminiscent of small temples. The city is probably not organized enough to allow us to take full advantage of its site. The restaurants are cheap.

Symi Island Day Trip

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Rhodes and take you to Mandraki Port. There, you'll board a boat that will take you to Symi, part of the Dodecanese island chain and one of Greece's most precious treasures!

Having reached Symi, you'll have the whole day free to explore the beautiful island at your leisure. Walking along its characteristic rocky coastline, you'll be enchanted by the beautiful neoclassical buildings on the waterfront.

Did you know that Symi is the birthplace of the Charities, also known as The Three Graces? Greek mythology goes hand in hand with the culture of Symi island. In fact, the island is named after the nymph Syme. 

During your day on Symi, you'll have time to visit Ano Symi, home to the Knights of St John Castle. We also recommend visiting the Monastery of St Michael the Archangel, nestled in one of the island's most beautiful bays, and the Monastery of Sotiris Megalos, in Panormitis.

After spending a full day exploring the island, we'll meet again at the agreed time at Symi port to take the boat back to Rhodes. We will end the excursion by dropping you off at your hotel at approximately 5 pm.
