The Acropolis of Rhodes is at the top of Monte Smith, around 0.6 miles (1 kilometer) west of Rhodes. You can walk from Rhodes, but it will be a steep uphill climb. You can also take bus No. 5 or a taxi. Many Rhodes sightseeing tours include a stop.

Wear comfortable shoes to walk around the large site, especially if you are walking from Rhodes. There is no shade, so sun protection—including a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen—is a good idea, as is plenty of water. Don’t forget a camera to take photos of the site and surrounding views.
