The biggest city and the capital of the Greek island of Kos is simply Kos. This is where the local tourist and cultural center is located. The accommodation base is also well-developed. We can find here many atmospheric restaurants. In the city center is the main port, and next to it we can see the 14th century fortress built in 1315 by the knights of Saint John of Jerusalem. From the port , ships run to nearby Bodrum, Kalymnos, Pserimos and Nissyros.
We have several options for exploring the city of Kos, including a ride on a tourist train or bicycle. There is no shortage of bicycle paths, thanks to which you can easily move around the area. Scooters are also ubiquitous in the streets. We can rent one of the vehicles mentioned above without any problems
Kos is also a place from which we reach the most important village on the island i.e. Kefalos, Kardamena, Pili, Zia or Antimachia and the beaches Mastichari, Tigaki, Marmari and Paradise Beach. We can easily get to the airport from here. And all thanks to the efficient bus station. Drivers of individual lines will not allow anyone to get lost, informing tourists to which bus they should take. It is worth mentioning that not only kindness is a strong point of communication employees, but also punctuality. Depending on the destination we have chosen, the first buses start at 7:00 and prices range from 2 to 5 euros. Timetables with the price list can be found at bus stops.
