Part of the Dodecanese archipelago, Tilos is midway between the popular tourist hotspots of Rhodes and Kos, but life on this tiny island is a far cry from the bustling resort ambience of its busy neighbours.

Tilos is a haven of tranquillity. Home to craggy mountains, secluded beaches, carpets of wildflowers, rare birds, medieval castles, sublime sea views, a remote monastery, and a cave of dwarf elephants.

The island has been spared the trappings of mass tourism, yet those who visit tend to return year after year. To find out more about this beguiling island, read on for our ultimate guide to Tilos.

A quick travel update for the Tilos ferry.

We have some great news to share! There is now a Wednesday ferry connection between Rhodes and Tilos, operated by the Panagia Spiliani ferry.

The new Tilos ferry will depart from the little harbour of Kameiros Skala on Rhodes at 18:15 in the evening. Below you will find the Wednesday timetable.

Some great news just in! We have started selling our Halki holidays  for 2017 and our villas in Halki that are not pre-booked are now free for 2017. Get in touch as soon as possible to secure your favourite villa!

This upcoming season marks our 10th year in providing you with the most unspoilt Greek island holidays to Halki and Tilos. We pride ourselves in providing the highest level of personal service and your feedback is so welcoming and encouraging. This is all because of you, thank you.

How many times have you returned home from another Halki holiday and you wondered, “OK, I’ve bought this Halki pasta, but how does one cook it?”. It would be great to have one of your favourite taverna owners and cooks there to assist, but that’s a little difficult. Worry no more, we’ve come up with the traditional Halki pasta recipe so that you can make the lovely onion sauce in order to cook your pasta, in true Halki fashion.

Hello everyone! I hope all is well!

Your beloved company has some really important news to share. Lynne Evans has now retired and also left her position with Nissia Holidays Ltd. We would like to wish her all the best for the future and we hope she has a great life, sharing all her wonderful stories from the many years on our lovely island of Halki.

We hope you enjoy the new Nissia Holidays website. Although it is still very early in the process of our redesign, we thought it would be the best practice launch it to all our clients, so we can get your valuable feedback and make any changes as needed.
