Cruise from Rhodes

Rhodes is the 3rd largest island in Greece. Its geographical location and beauty have long been a target for many empires.

In the Middle Ages, the city came under the dominion of the Knights of Malta and was later occupied by the Ottomans. Thus, Rhodes is known both for the variety of landscapes and the richness of its historical architecture.
