TG Tips – Lesvos
Things To Do On Lesvos, Greece…
What a beautiful island. I am often asked in my job where I like to go on holiday – I guess as a Tour Guide, people always want to know…
Usually, if pushed for an answer, I respond; the Greek islands.
Molivos, Island of Lesvos…
They are so different and that’s why I love them. A new addition to my ‘favourites’ is Lesvos, close to Turkey in the Eastern Aegean. I visited Sigri and stayed in Molivos, which I loved. Here are my tour guide tips of things to do on Lesvos, Greece…
Car Hire, etc
Discover Travel Agency, J Aristarchou 1, Mytilene – Twenty minutes max after disembarking from the ferry I was driving away in a hire car (not booked before then), insurance, fuel and everything done… and at a great price! George, whose office is as close to the docks as can be, can pretty much set you up with anything on the island I get the impression. I was very impressed with the car hire and can whole heartedly recommend them. Perhaps use their website to book in advance if coming during high season.
Accommodation
Pension Schoolmistress With The Golden Eyes, Molivos – For once I followed trip advisor where this hotel was number one. I stayed a little out of season, so perhaps that’s why the rates were so good. It’s nothing fancy, but just good Greek hospitality in a location above the main village with stunning views from the bedrooms. Very much recommended. Have a look at their website.
Bars
Congas Beach Bar, Molivos – The first thing you’ll need is a drink and this place, at any time of day is THE place for it. Super friendly staff, great music and a really good selection of drinks. But the forte of this place is the sunset viewing as well as late night dancing…
THE Place For Just About All Your Molivos Needs…
Asking one of the staff whether there was even dancing on a Monday, responded; we are Greeks, we don’t need a DAY, when we drink we dance…. Welcome to Congas Beach Bar
