Wow! We timed our visit perfectly. 5pm arrival in mid October meant that we had the place virtually to ourselves for the whole hour before closing time. It was a fascinating experience - and abandoned town with layers of archeological sites surrounding us. The view out to sea is spectacular, but the stones, roads, pillars, houses are the real gems. It is well laid out, with a series of steps, sensibly wide and solid, taking you up to the top of the site. It is a fairly easy climb. From there, you can walk down the main thoroughfare, taking in the sights on either side as you descend. At the lowest point you at the bath house, the forum and the sanctuary of the gods. There is a cafe and toilets on site, though we did not use them. The €6 fee was very reasonable, and there was no charge for parking. I think we chose the perfect time to visit!

Easy to find. Easy to park. Even if the ruins don't impress you, the scenery will. Take a stroll amongst the ancient streets of Rhodes' oldest greco/roman city and sit for a while enjoying the grasshoppers, birds and lizards as well as the forest and blue seas around you. We're fairly certain we saw an eagle too! It's an exposed hillside, so a hat and suncream are recommended. And it's a great compromise day out between the ruins and nearby beaches and tavernas. Well worth an hour or two and almost deserted on the several occassions we've visited over the years; if you're looking for a peaceful wander away from the bustle.

We intentionally visited as part of our self drive tour of the island and we were not disappointed. There are a few areas with shade and there is lots of walking both up and down hill, some of which is quite steep. The pathways around the site are clearly marked. Suitable footwear is advised for the less stable surfaces. It is amazing to see such history with your own eyes and we are very grateful for the recommendation to visit such a beautiful site. Well worth the €6 per adult admission fee. Recommend a visit

Had an amazing visit to Kamiros. Stunning location, you can see why they built a town here! We walked all the way round the outside first (no mean feat in 35 degrees., do take a hat and a drink!). Sat at the top (on thoughtfully hand-made log seats) and just drunk the views and the breeze in. Info boards good, staff all around to keep us in line. Definitely worth a visit for an hour or two, even if you’re not interested in history.
