Swap the Turkish coast for a Greek island on this full-day Rhodes excursion from Fethiye. In roughly one hour by hydrofoil ferry, you cross the Aegean and step into a completely different culture, language and atmosphere. This Fethiye day trip is ideal for travellers who want freedom: after the comfortable crossing, the whole day on Rhodes is yours to enjoy exactly as you wish.
Rhodes is one of the closest Greek islands to Turkey, yet it feels like another world. Its Medieval Old Town, built by the Knights Hospitaller in the 14th century, is a maze of cobbled lanes, stone arches and hidden squares enclosed by mighty walls. The Palace of the Grand Masters crowns the old city, while the Street of the Knights and the Hospital of the Knights – now the Archaeological Museum – tell the story of crusaders, Ottomans and Italians who shaped the island.
Mandraki Harbor, where the Colossus of Rhodes is said to have once stood, is today lined with yachts, waterfront cafés and the famous deer statues. Beyond the historic centre, the island offers inviting beaches, lively markets and traditional tavernas where you can sample Greek flavours during your free time.
Practical notes: this daily excursion is a relaxed, low-physical-level trip suitable for all ages. Please remember that Rhodes is in Greece (Schengen area), so bring your passport and check any visa requirements before travel. The island portion of the day is self-guided, giving you complete flexibility, while transfers and ferry tickets are arranged for you. Lunch and personal expenses are not included, so bring some spending money for meals and shopping on the island.

Daily Ferry to Rhodes Island Tour Your day begins around 08:00 AM with a meeting at your hotel lobby in Fethiye, followed by a comfortable transfer in an air-conditioned, non-smoking vehicle to the harbour. From here you board the hydrofoil ferry for the crossing to Rhodes, which takes approximately one hour – in that short time you travel from Turkey to Greece, arriving on one of the most fascinating islands in the Aegean. Once ashore, the day is entirely yours. Please note that this is not a fully guided sightseeing programme on the island; it is a hydrofoil ferry travel service that gives you a full free day to explore independently. You might stroll through the UNESCO-listed Medieval Old Town, visit the Palace of the Grand Masters, walk along the impressive city walls, or discover the Archaeological Museum housed in the historic Hospital of the Knights. Mandraki Harbor is perfect for a relaxed coffee by the water, and the charming local markets, cafés, restaurants and shops invite you to soak up Greek island life. Sun lovers can simply unwind under the Mediterranean sun. At the end of the day, you return by ferry to Fethiye, where a transfer takes you back to your hotel, completing a memorable day trip from Fethiye to another country and culture.

Real, verified reviews from travellers who explored Turkey with us.
My husband and I chose Inca Tour for our honeymoon and we are so glad we did. The boutique hotel selection was beautiful and the Bosphorus dinner cruise was so romantic. Thank you for making our trip special!
It was important for us to have a guide who spoke Russian, and Ender was wonderful. He explained every detail at Dolmabahce Palace. The Princes Islands day trip was a beautiful break from the busy city.
Our guide Ender was incredibly knowledgeable about Turkish history. The hot-air balloon ride at sunrise in Cappadocia was the highlight of our trip. Everything was perfectly organized — from airport pick-up to the last d...
Ender was our Italian-speaking guide and we felt like family. He took us to local spots tourists never see. The hotel choice in Sultanahmet was perfect for walking everywhere.
10+ years later we still talk about our Cappadocia balloon ride and the Bosphorus sunset cruise. Some memories are timeless. Thank you Inca Tour!
