What it's like

Kamiros is a site of ancient ruins on Rhodes, one of three ancient cities on the island, alongside Lindos and Ialysos. It is a step into ancient Greek life, where the stone remains of an old city can still be walked.

A visit means a steep climb with no handrails, so it suits visitors who are comfortable on uneven ground. The site sits within reach of the island's other ancient sites, so a day here pairs well with a wider look at Rhodes.

Good to know

  • The climb is steep and there are no handrails, so wear sturdy shoes.
  • The site is not accessible for limited mobility.
  • An entrance fee applies.
