Creator's Key Takeaways

Lindos and the Acropolis were a highlight of this high itinerary.

It was a bit crowded, but it was worth the effort in my opinion.

If you have the chance to visit Roads, don't miss it.

The views are spectacular. However, if you have a problem with walking, this will be extremely difficult.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring water, wear good shoes, and know your limits for the Acropolis climb.
If the climb seems too much, just enjoy the town instead.
Allow time for the steep descent from the Acropolis.
Explore the cruise port after the excursion, as it's easy to walk and docked until midnight.
