Great tour and excellent guide

Francis_B, Sep 2026

An extraordinary trip in the gorge of Samaria. One of the best experiences you can have in Crete. Excellent guide (Nikos) very knowledgeable reassuring and funny. The trek is hard but rewarding and anybody in reasonable physical shape can do it. Highly recommended!
