Message: [QUOTE="Dokey, post: 3982992, member: 9636"] I spent a week on Rhodes in the 1960s when it was overrun by semi permanent young Swedes. We were Peace Corps sharing a large hostel room with six people so my experience isn’t relevant but I would say Rhodes is primarily an entertainment hub, though there are nice ruins and bays on opposite end of the island. There are other Greek Islands with more historic sites or quieter beaches. As much as I enjoyed a tour of Greek City states, there are better Greek and (mostly) Roman cities in Turkey with Ephesus being the prime example, though there are others near Antalya. I first hiked into Cappadocia in 1967 when there was one hotel which catered to Turkish tourists. I took my family back 46 years later and the area was filled with scores of luxury hotels. Cappadocia is quite simply one of the most magical places on the planet. [/QUOTE]
