Kos Town by day

4.2/5
1040 reviews

On this half-day outing, you'll explore Kos town under your own steam. As the island's capital, it offers up plenty of stuff to see and do. You'll be picked up from your hotel and dropped off in the centre, where the time's all yours to do as you wish.

Many make a beeline for the port, which lined with cafés and tavernas is a great spot to soak in the town's atmosphere while nibbling on meze. At the far end of the harbour is the castle, which was built by the Knights of St John back in the 14th century. Elsewhere in the town, you've got the Roman Baths, the Odeon and Ancient Agora as well as the shop-and-bar-lined Eleftherias Square.

And the recently renovated Archaeological Museum is packed with classical relics such as sculptures and mosaics. And Hippocrates' Plane Tree is a great spot for selfie. There's also the pebbly beach – an ideal spot to relax after all that sightseeing. Your transfer back will be ready at 13:30.

    Family of 5 we were going to get a taxi but advised its over 30 mins & could be expensive there & back. We booked with Tui more so for safety, the coach departed on time & took over an hour & half getting there with all the other hotel pick up's this wasn't a great start, we were dropped at the harbour & just told to arrive back by 1:25 for departure at 1:30 no map or log-in for the pop up guide was given which was disappointing, worth a visit just a shame we weren't more informed

    Würde den Ausflug weiterempfehlen. An-&Abfahrt waren pünktlich und es war ausreichend Zeit da, sich Kos Stadt anzuschauen.
