What to expect

Kos's cultural, gastronomic and historical gems will be ticked off on this full day tour. You'll visit the archaeological site of Asclepeion, visit a honey factory in Kefalos, admire the view in Zia and sample some local wine.

The first stop of many will be the seaside town of Kefalos where you'll have the chance to grab a few snapshots before trying a local sticky delight – ‘loukomades', honey-soaked dough balls – at the honey factory. There'll then be a guided tour around Kos town to see its harbour lined with wooden boats.

You'll have the chance to visit ancient Asclepeion, one of Greece's most important archaeological sites, which houses the remains of the world's first hospital. The route will continue to the mountain village of Zia where there's a chance to taste the local Kanelada drink and look around the craft shops. A wine tasting will then round off your day.

    Optionaler Besuch der archäologischen Stätte Asklepeion Verkosten Sie lokalen Wein und das Dessert „Loukomaden“ Freizeit im Bergdorf Zia Geführte Tour durch Kos Stadt Diese Route wird ausschließlich von TUI angeboten – NUR BEI TUI Ich dachte wir hätten oben genannte Tour gebucht, aber wir waren NICHT in KOS Stadt und in der Stätte Asklepeion hatten wir nicht genug Zeit und auch nicht in Zia, der Besuch in der Imkerei und Weinverkostung war unnütz, die meiste Zeit eher im Bus verbracht

    Die geführte Tour durch Kos Stadt hat gar nicht stattgefunden. Wir sind lediglich mit dem Bus durchgefahren. Im Asklepios Tempel bestand kaum Möglichkeit alles anzusehen, weil der Reiseführer ununterbrochen geredet hat. Die Weinverkostung und die Honigfabrik waren Punkte, die innerhalb kürzester Zeit abgehandelt wurden und eher dem Verkauf dienten, als der Information. In Kefalos gab es einen Stop von fünf Minuten für ein Foto. Eine Anfahrtszeit von 90 Minuten ist zu lang und ist für Kinder nix.
