Rhodes Without a Car: Best Transport Options for 2025 Travelers

Can you enjoy Rhodes without renting a car? Absolutely – here’s how!

Planning a trip to Rhodes in 2025 and wondering if you need to rent a car? Good news—you don’t have to. Whether you're a couple, a family, or a solo explorer, there are convenient, safe, and flexible ways to get around the island without the hassle of driving.

  1. Private Transfers – Comfort & Peace of Mind

For airport pickups, hotel transfers, and day trips, private transfer services are by far the most reliable and stress-free option.

Pre-booked and punctual

English-speaking professional drivers

Comfortable vehicles with space for luggage, prams, and child seats

Ideal for families, groups, or those with mobility concerns

E-Transfer Rhodes offers tailored services all over the island.

  1. Taxis – Convenient, But Limited in Peak Season

Taxis are a good choice for short distances, and they’re reasonably priced for routes like Rhodes Town to Ixia or Faliraki to Kalithea.

However, there are some downsides:

Availability is limited during high season or on days with bad weather, when many travelers avoid the beach and choose to explore instead.

No guarantee you’ll find a taxi at busy times or in more remote areas.

Taxis in Rhodes don’t use apps like Uber or Bolt—you'll need to find a stand or call a dispatch service.

Tip: Book in advance whenever possible to avoid last-minute stress.

  1. Public Buses – Budget-Friendly but Inconsistent

The RODA (urban) and KTEL (intercity) buses serve most major routes, especially from Rhodes Town.

Affordable for budget travelers

Frequent buses to Faliraki, Lindos, Kalithea, etc.

Not ideal for remote areas or strict schedules

Can be crowded and delayed in summer

No direct bus from Ixia to Faliraki – requires changing in Rhodes Town, which can be time-consuming

  1. Walking – Ideal in Old Town & Coastal Villages

Rhodes Old Town, Lindos, and other picturesque areas are perfectly walkable.
You’ll enjoy cobblestone streets, local shops, and seaside paths without needing a car.

  1. Private & Semi-Private Day Tours

For travelers wanting to explore more of the island without driving themselves, guided tours are the perfect solution.

Hotel pick-up & drop-off

Customizable itineraries

Optional local guide

Comfortable transport with AC

Explore Lindos, wine villages, ancient ruins, and secret beaches without worrying about parking, navigation, or heat.

So, Do You Need a Car in Rhodes?

Not necessarily. If you’re staying in or near Rhodes Town, Ixia, Faliraki, or Lindos, and prefer to avoid the stress of driving, parking, and summer traffic, you can absolutely enjoy Rhodes car-free.

Landing in Rhodes with Kids – My Survival Guide!

Εικόνα
Landing in Rhodes with Kids – My Survival Guide! If you’ve ever landed in Rhodes with kids after a long flight, you know the struggle is real. I’ve learned a few things (sometimes the hard way!), so here are my top life hacks for making airport transfers with little ones as smooth as possible. ✈️ Pre-book a transfer with car seats – Trust me, don’t rely on finding a taxi with car seats last minute. Rhodes Airport is small but busy, and taxis don’t always have child seats. If you pre-book, you get ISOFIX car seats, which are properly secured to the car (way safer than using a seatbelt). 🚖 Know your vehicle options – In Rhodes, there are different types of taxis and transfers, so it’s good to know what works best for your family: ✔️ Standard taxis (sedans) – Fit 1 adult + 2 baby seats OR 2 adults + 1 baby seat, plus 2-3 big suitcases. Space can be tight. ✔️ SUV taxis and 6-seaters – These can take 4 adults + 2 car seats and have huge luggage space. Just keep in mind that the...
