The village was very quaint, built into the hillside with narrow alleys and lovely little shops. Well worth a visit.

Arrived in Lindos for a day trip as I was staying in Pefkos. Village itself was lovely, narrow streets, very picturesque, lovely views but there was one problem. The poor donkeys were locked in a confined space so they could barely move, and when they were brought out they would be tied together in pairs with rope or chains. I... More

Lindos is accessed by steep hills, no cars in the town but courtesy bus from the upper square and plenty of taxis and nothing wrong with walking there anyway. There's an absolute maze of narrow streets with lots of shops (budget holiday stuff and better quality local wares) and many restaurants of all kinds many with rooftop terraces. We loved... More

It is a very attracive village full of quaint shops and roof top restaurants. It can get very busy with day trippers so an evening visit was better.

While a bit more compact than Old Town in Rhodes, there are still roads leading off in to what is not quite so 'touristy' in order to get a flavor of what the village below the Acropolis was like in 'days of yore'. There are many fine shops to browse selling goods made in Dodecanese, lovely art galleries, food-stuffs; it's... More

The sights around lindos are simply breathtaking. Specially the sight from the acropolis. We stayed in a village within a short drive , and came to Lindos several times. On the road from Kiotari (which is where our hotel was) to Lindos , there is an amazing rocky lagoon , We parked the car and went down by foot and... More

Very beautiful, just come back from staying in the Lindos View, its in a perfect position overlooking the acropollis. The only issue are some of the people who take a ride on the little donkeys up the very steep hill to the acropolis, one man in his late 30's, who looked very fit and weighed about 13 stone, got on...

This is souvenir central. Streets are very narrow and crowded. Occasional excitement trying to avoid madmen on motorbikes who do not seem to care for tourists in the road. Nice, unusual bar at one place in the village. Couldn't remember where because the whole area became a maze after a while. Enjoyed a peaceful pint, then back into the bazaar.

Still the same after last visit in 1969. Sandy beach, waterfront tavernas, white cubist houses, donkeys to acropolis with Castle and Greek temple. Greece in a nutshell. Zito i Elladha!
