Itinerary

  • Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes

    The Inner Courtyard: It is hard to believe that this magnificent courtyard once hosted the horse stables and the kitchen. Let’s travel back in time to know the Knights Hospitallers secured their residence and why the statues of Roman senators adorn the location. Have a closer look at the contemporary restoration and discover what went wrong. The Room with the Ribbed Vault: Decorated with an early mosaic pavement decorated with birds, trees and vases originated from Kos and equipped with 16th-century furniture, the room used to be the office of Cesare Maria De Vecchi. De Vecchi was the one who conceived the program of restoration of the glory of the Knights Hospitallers. This humble room became the siege of the powerful De Vecchi. Listen to our stories in order to learn how the architect Vittorio Mesturino restored the grandeur of the Palace and the fame of the knights. The Room with the Nine Muses: The most beautiful room of the Palace which is decorated with the nine muses.

Top marks -unmissable if in Rhodes

Published on Nov, 2023

It is unusual for Greek monuments to have no guidance apart from short description at each item you might see. Tour guides are expensive because it involves a real person, probably retired guide with local knowledge, which is fine if you can make group of 4+ ($30 pp or about) but if you cannot make numbers-you are stuck. We purchased this audio self-guide in advance as carefully and with great detail explained on Tripadvisor website. It was easy to download (I am just a user and was able to do it with nobody assistance) . It is true that download have to be stored in your mobile. Explanations were detailed, in clear well-educated English, we had no headphones and we just adjusted sound on our units. We enjoyed explanations very much at the great envy of other visitors: I was at least stopped and asked twice by others (some in the group left to wonder alone) and I told them what we did prior our visit-I think this product deserve a little free marketing. This is probably the best attraction related to Rhodes: there are many aquaparks, sandy beaches and sports attractions, but there is only one Grand Master Palace of Rhodes, well preserved with some awesome features: historical, architectural and beautiful in its own right. I was left wondering why nobody approached Cleo Muse and commissioned this product: its sensibly priced and well designed. I really do hope that attraction next door-archaeological Museum - Hospital of St John Order could be included, some interesting items I would like to hear more about.

A staggering experience

Published on Sep, 2022

The palace of the grand master is astonishing on its own, but what really makes a difference is this self guided tour. It felt amazing walking around having my personal tour guide explaining to be all sorts of things and with such amazing content. Definitely recommended.
