One of the most popular tourist destinations in the Mediterranean, the Greek island of Rhodes has many attractions for all types of visitors. With glorious weather guaranteed in the summer months, it can be tempting to spend most of your time relaxing on one of the many sandy beaches - but in order to truly appreciate what Rhodes has to offer you need to get out and explore parts of the island away from the main tourist trail. The best way of doing this is by hiring a car.Car rental is an affordable and easy way of exploring the island. You can hire a wide range of cars, either at the airport or in most of the major towns and resorts. Which type of vehicle you decide to hire will depend on the requirements of your party, but the broad range of available cars will cater to most needs. Small cars and sporty numbers are available for couples, while people-carriers and mini-vans can be hired for families and larger parties. It goes without saying that all cars are serviced to the highest standard, and most have extra features such as air-conditioning and sat-nav. The open road is your oysterOnce you have your rental car, the entire island becomes open for discovery. Secluded beaches and picturesque hilltop villages can easily be found and you can explore the history of Rhodes by visiting the spectacular castle at Monolithos or the monastery in the inland town of Tharri. On the east coast of Rhodes the quaint whitewashed villages of Stegna and Haraki are great places to stop and taste some of the local delicacies, while a short drive away lies the party town of Faliraki. Of course, no trip to the island would be complete without visiting Rhodes Town. With a glorious harbour and ancient medieval fortifications, the town is packed with interesting sights and beautiful shops and restaurants. Many other attractions can be found all over the island, and the best way to see these sights is by hiring a car.
