Lovely hike and swim! Our guides were friendly and helpful, and we even had freshly baked apple pie after. They took lots of photos of us and gave us hiking tips.

Amazing place

Overall great experience! The guides were awesome. Water was cold, but refreshing. Pickup and dropoff was very easy. Would definitely call it a hidden gem.

Amazing guide

George our tour guide made our trip to the falls a wonderful, insightful and caring experience. He communicated fast and openly in scheduling the day, picking us up at our hotel and offering great conversation, that the 45minute drive went by so fast. At the falls he guided us wonderfully, caring for me and my friends safety as well as catering the day to our wishes. Truly a wonderful guy and I’d totally recommend spending the day exploring the pools and falls of this beautiful escape!

Beautiful and Adventurous Experience

This trip made for a beautiful and memorable experience in Kalamata. George and Dimitris were excellent tour guides in every way - informative, funny, experienced. We did not feel nervous at all during the somewhat rocky and slippery hike. The hike itself was quicker than I expected, and the waterfall was even more impressive than the pictures show. George explained how to enter and exit the water in the safest way, as seemingly easier spots could have proved more dangerous as they were quite slippery. George took plenty of photos, which he shared with us just hours after the tour ended. He also provided an excellent lunch recommendation upon our return to town. The cafe at the entrance of the trail provides a perfect view of the hillside, and we were able to purchase souvenirs, use the restroom, and have a snack with coffee at the end of our hike. I have no critiques for this experience and would absolutely recommend it to anyone with the slightest interest. My only recommendation would be to wear shoes with good traction. Otherwise, you will have everything covered for a wonderful morning!

Hiking not for faint hearted. Beautiful views worth the hike😍

Brilliant trip. Lots of climbing and Ricky paths do not fit faint hearted. Tour guide brilliant . Hilly in places but at end of waterfall it’s worth the scenery for sure. Just avoid going in Aug with young children. It was very very very hot

Kicked off Greece vacation with this amazing hike and swim.

DUANE_L, Jul 2021
George was an absolutely amazing guide, he was extremely knowledgeable, not only about the route and the hike we took, but also the plants and animals in the area and the history of Greece and the surrounding countries. 5 Stars hand down, we will return to do a more strenuous hike under his watch and guidance.

Nádherný výlet k vodopádom

Marta_V, Sep 2025
Ja som mala veľmi dobrý zážitok so svojou mamou na tých vodopádoch. Moja mama má 68 rokov a mala strach že nezvládne tu cestu do vodopádov ale všetko bolo super - exkurzny tím pomohol mame vyliezť na každý kameň. Vodopády sú krásne aj bola bola tam možnosť aj plávat tam, voda bola veľmi príjemná. Vynikajúci vzduch v tom mieste sa cítil skvelé. Takže výlet bol veľmi príjemný a ja odporúčam to všetkým turistom v Kalamate

Genoten van de waterval-loop

Dit was een unieke ervaring. De begeleiding van onze gids George was uitstekend. Door zijn ervaring, behulpzaamheid en verhalen droeg hij bij tot een van de hoogtepunten van onze reis. Ook leuk dat er tijdens de excursie foto’s werden genomen die nadien met ons gedeeld werden.

Top!!!

Super agréable et vraiment surpris du cadre. Le guide est très bien. Je conseille fortement cette cascade !!!

Viel mehr als nur eine Wanderung

Lea_R, Jun 2024
Die Tour war einfach super. Die beiden guides waren super freundlich, hilfsbereit und sachkundig, wir hatten sehr viel Spaß. Wir mussten an manchen Stellen ein wenig klettern, wir wurden sehr gut angeleitet und somit war es kein Problem. Für Senioren und Menschen mit körperlichen beschwerden ist der Pfad sicherlich fordernd und nicht zu empfehlen. Unser Guide George war super nett und hat uns Tipps für Iden weiteren Aufenthalt gegeben. Danke George für das einmalige Erlebnis 😁
