Sarakina Gorge and Myrtos Day Trip - Had a great day with our inspired and experienced driver (old) Nikos. Knows a lot about the island and its history to tell. Nice picturesque villages visited and breathtaking views seen. The gap is a challenge and should not be underestimated. Then enjoyed one of the best meals (lunch) of the holiday. Finally, a swim stop in the crystal clear water in Myrtos.

A perfect family trip with options for active or leisurely approach - A great experience. Interesting ride with stops in historic areas/villages, hiking in the gorge followed by a very nice lunch in the local restaurant and subsequent short drive to the beach. The entire family (including 2 teens and a 9yo girl) liked very much. Everything was on time and according to the schedule, the guide very knowledgeable and communicative (he can adjust that based on your needs:) and with great support and ideas for photos/videos/reals. Strongly recommend this small business! Thank you!

Full day of fun! - Wow. What a brilliant day. Our guide was great: friendly and very knowledgeable. There was a lot packed into the trip but we didn’t feel rushed at all. The gorge was very impressive. The food and hospitality at the taverna were fantastic. Highly recommend this trip; great value for money with all that is included.

Great trip for the whole family - It was a great trip for the whole family. We visited a typical village, drove off-road over the mountains, did a gorge ascent and finally we went to a beautiful beach for a swim. Our driver Schorchi explained a lot, was super funny and responded great to the kids. The lunch at the gorge was super delicious. Since you have to climb a bit in the gorge, sturdy shoes are important. Kids 9 and 11 liked this the best. Thank you Schorchi for the great day.

Very nice tour to explore the island - The tour was beautiful, very well organized, also the guide was super nice and always tried very hard. The finishes were very nice and there was enough time to look around at the stops a bit alone. I can highly recommend the tour and also the company.

Had a nice day - We have been on tour with (super) mario, was really super fun. Enthusiastic tourguide who gave lots of facts and information. During the off-road ride, he stopped regularly to show herbs, plants or other things. The hike was totally different than expected, we really went climbing on rocks etc. The food was a little less but it was a very nice day. We still got enough free time to look around a traditional village and to swim at the end of the day.
