Animal Welfare Policy
Last updated: August 2026
Our position
HelloRhodes does not knowingly list or promote activities that involve the mistreatment, exploitation, or unnecessary confinement of animals. Where an experience involves wildlife or working animals — a boat excursion that stops to watch dolphins, for example — we expect the operator to prioritize the animals' welfare over the visitor experience.
For operators
If you list an experience with HelloRhodes that involves animals in any way, we expect you to follow applicable Greek and EU animal welfare law, and to be able to describe your practices if asked.
Report a concern
If you saw something on a HelloRhodes-listed experience that concerned you, tell us via our Help Center — include the experience name and what you observed. We take these reports seriously and will follow up with the operator.
