Squeezed in between the ancient ruins left behind by the Greek, Roman and Byzantine eras, Kos town's harbour is fronted by an outstanding medieval castle. The island's capital is both stylish and atmospheric, and comes alive after dark. You'll be picked up at your hotel and dropped off in Kos town, where you'll have an evening to explore its lively old town and harbour area at your own pace.

Fringed by cafés and beautiful boats, you could watch the sun dip down at a harbour-side bar and then enjoy dinner in one of the town's eateries – there's everything from traditional tavernas to contemporary restaurants to choose from.

Or why not wander through the streets of the old town, lined with pretty lanterns and colourful bougainvillea. You'll have plenty of time to explore under your own steam and browse the boutiques and gift shops that stay open late.

Really enjoyed the trip, would be even better if you could give the option to go in the morning and come back in the evening so you could have a full day.

The journey took ages 1 1/2 hours each way from the Blue Lagoon.village to Kos Town. Had to do lots of pick ups and the air conditioning on the bus was not working. It was unbearable. It would have been much better to have a seperate mini bus just for our hotel. Kos Town was worth a visit

Well worth the cost and the effort. On time in both direction.

The bus into town is a great service you get around four and a half hrs to explore the bus was 10 mins late for pick up and seemed to go around the mountain to get back . A map of the town would be good to be given out on bus

No rep on board! Driver was a little rude and not clear where we going. The write up on the trip mentioned an app so we could get info about sights we were seeing ect we never got given that information. Wasn’t well organised! Literally just picked up and dropped off I’m sure a bus or taxi cheaper. Also several other hotels for pick ups on the way making the journey well over an hour feel should be told this prior to booking

A great trip out to see Kos town for the money. The only issue we had was there was no air con on either of the coaches and it was mega hot especially having to do several pick ups and drop offs. It would also be nice to have some idea where you are when they drop you off in Kos especially for those that have never been before. We managed to find our way though and did what we wanted in the time allowed. Would recommend the trip.
