Pay a visit to Archaeological Museum in the Hospital of the Knights, then continue along the Street of the Knights to the Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes - the highest point of the town. Gaze in wonder at the 20th-century artworks, sculptures and engravings at the Modern Greek Art Museum and the impressive minaret on the pink and white Suleyman Mosque. The New Town are is well worth a walk too; if only to visit the New Market, Aquarium of Rhodes, and the acropolis and amphitheatre at the top of Monte Smith.

• Day 4: Ephesus (Kusadasi), Turkey

Pay a visit the impressive 16th-century Kaleici Mosque or spend a few hours relaxing on the popular Ladies Beach. Take a walk along the causeway across to the off-shore Pigeon Island (Guvercin Adasi) to explore its walled Byzantine castle. Fun times for all the family are on the menu on the lazy river, zip lines, waterslides, and water-coasters at Adaland Aquapark on the outskirts of the town. Kusadasi is also gateway to the classical ruins at nearby Ephesus; highlights include: Cukurici Mound, Ayasuluk Hill and its Selçuk Fortress, Saint John Basilica, Isa Bey Mosque, Isa Bey Bath, Temple of Artemis (one of the Seven Wonders of the World), House of the Virgin Mary, and Ephesus Ancient City itself.
