by Plane
Compare the rates
and schedules of different companies. Please note that Rhodos being an
international airport, many travel agencies specialised in charter flights
offer during the summer competitive prices, for example from the UK, Italy,
Germany, Belgium, Poland... Finally, the sooner you book your flights the
more avantageous will be the price. In any case, do not count on "last
minutes" unless you have tremendous luck!...

by Boat
Whether you land in Rhodos or Athens you will need to take a
boat to reach Tilos. From Athens, plan a 15 hour voyage (approximatively 50€
return if you are contented to stay on the deck; more than double if you
take a cabin); from Rhodos, between 1h30 (approx. 35€ return) and 4hrs (approx.
25€ return) depending on the type of ship. This is the normal duration
whether arriving or leaving Tilos (unless of course you manage to bring
attention to yourself and are brought by the medical helicopter to Rhodos in
about 10 minutes). Be attentive to the fact that Jupiter who prevails over
the Greek seas may affect the schedules influenced by the mood of the
Captains, or the winds. For your return trip, take at least a six hours
margin between the arrival of the ship at the other end and the departure of
your plane. Better still, to be certain to make your flight, leave a day
early and spend a night in Rhodos (if that is where you're flying from)
where you must visit the old town and its impressive castel. The same
caution should be taken for those returning to Canada or the United Stated
passing through Athens.
