Top-Rated Kos Shore Excursions

Ships berth or tender into the harbor of Kos Town, beneath the walls of the Castle of the Knights. Ruins of the ancient agora and Roman houses lie scattered through the town center, and a short drive inland reaches the Asklepion, the healing sanctuary linked to Hippocrates, who was born on the island.

Tours, prices and reviews from Viator, a Tripadvisor company — prices are per person, from, and were checked November 1, 2026. Portours may earn a commission when you book, at no extra cost to you. Always allow a generous buffer to be back on board before all-aboard time.
