Walking food tour in the medieval town of Rhodes

The walking food tour in the medieval town of Rhodes is a guided tasting route through the walled Old Town on the island of Rhodes, in Greece's South Aegean region. The listing does not identify an operating company, so no operator name or years of operation are stated here. The meeting point is the Marine Gate, the grand harbour-side entrance to the Old Town, and the route continues along cobbled lanes past the Knights' Quarter and the small squares where local bakeries and cafes operate. The tour combines sweet and savoury tastings. According to the listing, visitors try melekouni, the honey-and-sesame sweet of Rhodes, along with spoon sweets, a seafood meze, and Greek coffee and tea. That makes the balance roughly half sweet and half savoury, with the seafood meze serving as the main savoury course. An English-speaking licensed guide leads the group and explains the influence of Byzantine, Knights Hospitaller, Ottoman and Italian periods on local cooking. The listed inclusions are the guide, the sweets, the seafood meze, and the coffee and tea; hotel transfers, extra drinks and gratuities are not listed as included. Group size is not stated in the source material, but walking food tours in the Old Town are normally run in small groups because of the narrow lanes. The pace is relaxed, with short walks between stops and time to ask questions at each tasting. Dietary substitutions are not described in the listing, so visitors with allergies, or those avoiding fish, nuts or gluten, should check with the booking platform before reserving. The Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site, so the setting is part of the appeal. April to October is the recommended season, when outdoor seating is available and the weather suits several hours on foot. Midday heat in July and August makes morning or late-afternoon departures more comfortable.
