Preparing your trip to Rodos: advices & hints - things to do and to obey

Rhodes, Greece 1. The island of Rhodes features a well developed bus service. By public transport tourists will easily get to any part of the resort or to any landmark and sight of the island. The central bus station is located not far from port area. Tourists can learn local bus timetable and current bus routes there.
2. The peak of the tourist season falls within a period from April till October thus a hotel for this period should better be booked in advance.

3. Bicycle is a popular transportation means among local residents. One can rent a vehicle in one of numerous renting centers of the resort. Guests of the islands can opt for renting a car as well. The most popular car renting center is located in the airport area. One should keep in mind that renting centers located on the premises of hotels commonly charge the highest rates.
4. National currency is an optimum way to pay for goods and services. Some markets and shops accept foreign currencies as well. However an exchange rate in this case will be less profitable. Bargaining is welcome on the local markets as this is a good way to sufficiently reduce prices for goods. Large shopping centers have adopted a cashless transfer system. International credit cards are accepted.
