This was a nice experience. Not only did my guide motivate me to bicycle all the way to Homer's tomb, but gave me a lot of information about the island's (Ios) history, ancient and recent. The trip included a visit to an orchard owned by my guide and his wife, and I got to taste some of it's delicious produce. We even visited the ancient site of Skavros. The guide was very generous about sharing his own life and engagement with the island's history and tourism industry, and had the ability to make facts and myth come alive. I would very much recommend this tour; it is definitely worth it.

Thank you very much for your wonderful review. It was a real pleasure riding with you and sharing not only the history and myths of Ios, but also some of the places and stories that make the island special to us.
I’m especially glad you enjoyed the visit to Skarkos and our orchard. For me, these tours are about much more than reaching Homer’s Tomb; they are a way of discovering the different layers of Ios, from its ancient past to everyday life on the island today.
Thank you again for joining me and for your kind words. I hope your memories of Ios stay with you for a long time

My friends and I traveled to Greece for the first time this summer, and George made our trip a memorable one! It was a pleasure to be able to see the entirety of Ios while learning about the history and authentic culture of the island. If you like getting active and learning about the places you are vacationing at- this would be the perfect tour for you! George even led us to his garden where we picked figs and learned about all the hard work that goes into sustaining Greek agriculture.
It does require quite a bit of energy, so be prepared by hydrating and eating before you go!

Hello Julia, hi everybody!!!
What a day we had!!!
I dont know about you, but i had an amazing time: Beautiful weather, local treats from Ios' nature and of course i was accompanied by 3 beautiful and smart ladies :) who ate the elephant (you know what i mean) one bit at a time.
Thank you very much for everything, next time, i will also offer some wine (from my wineyard of course)
