Loved this hike! - Our extended family of 10 loved this hike! It was a great way to get away from the hustle and bustle of Athens. The views and sunset were beautiful and we learned a lot about the native plants. The guides were super friendly, knowledgeable and went above and beyond for us. Highly recommend!

Amazing! - Our guide, Konstantinos, communicated with me a day ahead to confirm time and specific info for pick up. He was right on time. It was nice to take the short car ride and get out of the city for the evening. The hike was not difficult and Konstantinos stopped multiple times to point out different plants along the way and told us some history as well. He also took pictures of us at different locations which was very nice since we rarely get pictures with the whole family. The sunset was absolutely beautiful! The hike after the sunset to get back to the car was short and there was plenty of light left. Overall, this was a great experience and I would recommend it!
