There is 1 place left on the forthcoming tour of Rhodes, Greece. See link for details or contact me...
www.greenwings.co/page/greek-island-odyssey--rhodes--gree...
The island of Rhodes is blessed with more days of sunshine (300 or more) than almost anywhere else in Europe, so its name ‘The Isle of the sun’ is well justified.
The tour will encompass the diverse flora and fauna, culture, cuisine and history of Rhodes. We will stay right in the heart of the medieval old town (a World Heritage Site), in a charming and traditional Greek family hotel.
From our base we will venture out in a comfortable mini-bus to explore the island. There will be chances to see and photograph lots of flora and fauna, including Lesser Fiery Copper, Bee-eater, Golden Oriole, Scarce and European Swallowtail, Oertzen’s Rock Lizard, Rhode’s Dragon, Aegean Meadow Brown, Long-tailed Blue, Large Wall Brown, Dragon Arum, King Ferdinand’s Orchid, the rare and beautiful endemic Rhodes Peony and Fritillary and much more!
The adventure will start on Thursday 26th April and journey’s end will be reached on Thursday 3rd May.
10% of profits will be donated to Butterfly Conservation.
