Diagoras Stadium and Rhodes Town from Lindos: A Day-Trip Plan

Rhodes Town can work as a day trip from Lindos if the plan follows the bus schedule and keeps the list of stops manageable. KTEL Rodou runs a direct Lindos–Rhodes route, though the timetable can vary, so avoid building the day around an old departure time.

For a simple plan, make Rhodes Old Town the main stop and add Diagoras Stadium if it fits your interests and available time. The stadium is a municipal sports venue in Rhodes town, rather than a historic sight inside the Old Town.

KTEL Rodou identifies Lindos Krana and Lindos Reception as Lindos bus stations on its Lindos–Rhodes route. The one-way fare is €5.50 per person.

Bus facilities include an audio system, an internet connection and full air conditioning. Check the official site before you go: the timetable is time-sensitive, and the departures shown for an earlier operating period do not confirm the schedule for your visit.

Choose your return departure before settling into the day. That gives you a clear limit for time in the Old Town and helps determine whether to include the stadium. If your trip starts at Diagoras Airport, the transfer route from Diagoras Airport to Lindos is a separate leg to plan.

Rhodes Old Town is a natural focus for the day, with its historic streets and walls providing a change of scene from Lindos. Give this part of the visit the time you want for walking around, then fit in other stops only if the bus schedule leaves room.

Keep the plan flexible rather than trying to cover every part of town. If Diagoras Stadium is also on the itinerary, check where it fits in relation to Old Town plans before setting out.

Diagoras Stadium is a municipal stadium in Rhodes town, at 1 Vyronos, Rhodes 85100, Greece. Sports there include football, volleyball, basketball, cycling, indoor games, power gym and judo.

The Municipality of Rhodes gives its opening hours as 07:00–22:00 daily throughout the year, and football takes place on weekends. Those hours do not by themselves establish access for casual sightseeing, so confirm arrangements with the municipality if planning to go inside. The stadium’s telephone numbers are 00302241027658 and 00302241036184.

Start by checking the current bus departures and choosing a return that leaves enough time in Rhodes. Then decide whether to spend the day mainly in the Old Town or divide it between the Old Town and Diagoras Stadium.

Keep the stadium as a separate stop in the plan: its sports facilities and weekend football schedule may suit a sports-focused visit more than a general walk around town. If you intend to enter, confirm access before travelling there.
