Itinerary

1 MEET US!

The Tour starts in the morning (approx. 10:00) by the Achilleas Hotel in Kos Town.

2 WALK AROUND KOS

We will embark on about a 60-minute walk around the city of Kos. You’ll hear many interesting facts about the city and the island – primarily about Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine. You’ll learn about the most interesting and important historical events and see monuments from various periods of the past.

3 OLIVE OIL TASTING

A 10-minute coach ride. Olive oil is undoubtedly the most important product of Mediterranean cuisine. It’s hard to imagine anything being served without it (except maybe tea or coffee :p). Here you will taste several types of olive oil and products made from olives.

4 MOUNTAIN VILLAGE ZIA

Just below the highest peak on Kos – Dikeos, you’ll visit the tiny village of Zia, where among many shops with local products and souvenirs, you’ll find cooling ice creams, enjoy a cold beer, explore narrow streets, or simply warm up your camera to redness with stunning views. Return to the city about 30 minutes later.

5 LUNCH AT THE TAVERN

You’ll visit a tavern where you’ll taste Greek cuisine. The individual menu selection will take place during the tour. We will say out good-byes here, too.

6FREE TIME IN KOS TOWN

About 3 hours of free time for a self-guided walk around the city and return to the places where we met in the morning and talked to you about the island. There will be an opportunity to buy souvenirs, take photos, eat homemade ice cream, or simply relax and sunbathe on nearby sandy beaches. The decision is yours.
