We loved this small-group kayak experience! It was a great way to see the beautiful coastline, swim in some stunning caves and spend time on some less visited beaches. Our guide, Yiannas, was professional, experienced and excellent at bringing our group together, ensuring everyone had a great time.

    Εxceptionel!

    Maria_P, Sep 2025
    It was very easy to book, everyone was having fun. Selma, Jannies and Jannis have a real lovely way to engage people and to not make this only a technical kayak tour. With Humor, singing and also encouragement to jump in the water the give the right energy. Even Janni made his home cooked spaghetti freshly, also regarding everybody’s nutritional ‚intolerances‘. We kayaked the first time and were able to feel sure at the end and loved everything about it. Everything was thought out with passion! Thank you!

    Loved it!

    Great experience

    Great kayaking and snorkelling experience. The hosts were also amazing. Would definitely recommend it!

    Wonderful

    Petrica_A, Aug 2025
    Today we experienced something truly unforgettable as a family – exploring Lefkada from the water, in our kayaks. 🌊🏝️ The gentle breeze, the calm waves, and the unreal shades of blue surrounded us with every paddle stroke. We discovered hidden coves, untouched beaches, and shared laughter with every splash that cooled us down. 🛶💙 It was more than just an activity – it was a moment of connection, freedom, and pure joy that we’ll always keep in our hearts. Lefkada, you have completely won us over! ❤️

    .An experience not to be missed.

    Theo_C, Aug 2025
    Fantastic experience. Excellent team, lots of fun, great spirit, incredible service. A huge bravo to the whole team. Don't miss it.

    Kayaking to the blue...

    Panos_L, Jul 2025
    Kayaking to the blue caves was a great experience. It was a 4 hour excursion and Yannis’ storytelling gave context to the experience. It was safe for our two kids aged 13 and 10 Highly recommend.

    Excellent trip. Good safety brief and assistance. Patient and fun to be with. Quality kayaks. Not too difficult

    Great for families

    Annie_E, Jul 2025
    We had a really great time. We have a family with 2 older teens and a ten year old who couldn’t really paddle the whole time, but the team gave us a lot of help and had a lot of patience with her and she ended up having a great time. Even our middle child who wasn’t sure she wanted to come had a great time and was really glad she came. That was mostly because the team of Yainnis was attentive and funny and engaging. Thanks guys for a great activity.

    Amazing tour! Saw all...

    Nikolitsa_V, Jun 2025
    Amazing tour! Saw all these beautiful spots thanks to Yianni! Swimming and snorkeling inside the caves was something I can’t even put into words! I would highly recommend!

    Amazing experience

    Kay_J, Jun 2025
    I had an amazing time, was very well taken care of, I’m not the most experienced kayaker but didn’t feel rushed at all (apart from getting over the waves). We had a couple of stops the cave was beautiful even saw a few bats flying around and a star fish. Would definitely recommend to everyone, Yiannis is a knowledgeable guide and looked after us well, and thank you to the other Yiannis for a wonderful lunch.

    Fun, informative kayak outting

    A_H, Jun 2025
    This excursion exceeded my expectations. Our guide Yiannis really made it enjoyable. He did a great job of quickly learning everyone's names, teaching everyone how to use the paddles and supplying us with dry bags and life vests. The kayaks are nice and have foot pedal steering. Yiannis educated us along our journey with names of islands and other facts about the terrain. He sang to us and we sang along making our rowing less tiresome. (About 10km) We went to 3 beaches in total with a homemade lunch at one. It was delicious, or I was famished. Lol Be sure to bring your own water and plenty of sunscreen! We also navigated into a cave and amazingly he helped us each individually in and back into our kayaks without him getting out of his kayak! And we were all different shapes and sizes! The water was quite fresh but it was worth a look and he kindly took everyone's pics in the water and throughout the day. They provided masks but i brought my own mask and snorkel. We even saw a snake and wild goats! He did a great job keeping everyone safe, educating people if they were potentially being a hazard to themselves. He gave incredible one on one to a couple people in need. And we got to witness him calmly help a couple who capsized. His truly kind disposition added to our overall experience. I highly recommend spending a day kayaking on this tour while in Lefkada. And he sent us our pictures within an hour after our excursion which was a nice unexpected bonus!

    Living The Dream

    Alison_L, Sep 2024
    This trip sounded great but excelled our expectations! Our guides were fun, attentive and created an action packed adventure set in pristine magnificent Grecian nature. Crystal clear remote beaches, coral & starfishes, ancient caves and wonderful historical stories. I will be dreaming of this day on the water when I am back in London.

    Beyond expectations!

    Jessica_C, Sep 2024
    Everything about this trip exceeded expectations- our guide, the safety instruction, the storytelling about the area, the homemade lunch and of course the views! We loved every minute and would recommend kayaking with Yannis to anyone in the area! He made us feel like family from the moment we arrived.

    Awesome for the whole family.

    Lloyd_S, Aug 2024
    We were two families with kids 10 - 12 and we all totally loved this experience. The briefing they gave was thorough and put everyone at ease. The guide, Yiannis was loads of fun and great at giving insightful information about the area. He even had a good singing voice. The cave was definitely a highlight for everyone, but we need to also mention the; starfish, coral race, but we all enjoyed the whole thing. Thank you team Periplous and compliments to Yannis the trip chef for a great lunch.

    Great day at sea

    Christa_L, Jul 2024
    A great experience at sea with lovely company - such a beautiful trip 💙 we felt safe in the company of Yannis and Yannis - they were very professional. Definitely something we will do again - and we learned a lot

    Highly recommend!

    Jasmin_N, Jul 2024
    We had the most amazing time on our kayak trip! Yiannis & Yiannis were both wonderful. We learned so much about the history of the island while enjoying some breath taking scenery. A highlight for us would definitely be seeing the red starfish & hearing about the Odyssey’s connection to Lefkada. We highly recommend this to anyone looking for a fun adventure on their trip to Lefkada.

    Life is short - don’t miss this trip

    Pamela_O, Jul 2024
    We were a group of three aged between 68-21 and had a brilliant and truly memorable day. Home cooked food, great instructions, funny and personable - both Yannis’s make a huge effort to make sure everyone is recognised as an individual and they work tirelessly to ensure everyone is having the best experience they can deliver - the kit is immaculate, the attention to detail faultless they definitely earn all their five star reviews!

    We had such a great...

    We had such a great time!! Our tour operators were amazing and helped create a wonderful atmosphere. Thanks so much :)

    Kayaking and snorkeling in a cave

    Jeton_D, Jul 2024
    Great kayaking experience to see the landscape of lefaka, a cave and a few hidden beaches. Guides were very friendly and offered great guidance for a safe trip. The cave was small but a beautiful sight to see. The snorkeling gear provided made the experience even better as we got to see under the clear blue and deep ocean waters.

    Amazing and recommended!

    Ori_S, Jul 2024
    Amazing time! Highly recommended. Great break from just beach lounging… Yanis and team are awesome! A different perspective of the spectacular views of the Island.

    Best adventure in Lefkada with Yannies Guide

    Tobias_Z, Jun 2024
    It was an amazing trip with Yannis, the best guide in Greece! He made the trip very secure and funny! Very nice Cave and lunch break with amazing views and exoerience on the kajaks! Thanks Yannies!!

    Great tour

    Maria_p, Jun 2024
    It was our first time visiting Lefkada and we chose to do this tour last minute. I’m so happy we did! Yiannis the owner greeted us with such enthusiasm and Yiannis our tour guide was experienced and made sure we were having fun the entire time. The waters were the bluest I have ever seen in my life. Our stop at the blue cave was the highlight for us. Make sure to jump out and swim. Then we stopped to snorkel at two beaches and enjoyed lunch with our feet in the Ionian Sea. Definitely do this tour. You won’t be disappointed!

    Relaxing day in Lefkada!

    Charles_K, Jun 2024
    We had a wonderful time kayaking, singing and exploring with Yiannis. He prepared us a delicious lunch using his Yiayia’s recipe. We enjoyed hearing the stories and history of Lefkada and the surrounding Islands. Would highly recommend this tour, well worth the time and money spent!

    A wonderful experience

    Fiona_W, Jun 2024
    A wonderful experience with Yannis. We booked via Viator after seeing on trip advisor. We were staying in Nydri so this was about a 25 min drive away but nice to see another part of the island and it’s a lovely little town. Would really recommend the trip, Yannis was kind, enthusiastic & helpful. We stopped to swim and snorkel and had a delicious spaghetti lunch towards the end of the trip. Would definitely recommend

    Great way to spend the day!

    Lisa_S, Sep 2023
    Loved swimming in the blue cave and our Knowledgeable guide Yiannis. Great day and a lot of exercise.

    Super kayakers!

    Robert_d, Aug 2025
    Incredibly beautiful and fun experience. Yannis welcoming, security high and history narrator. Best day of our vacation so far.

    Ne propustite ovu avanturu u Periplous Experience!

    Ivana_K, Sep 2024
    Definitivno kruna naseg odmora. Ovu avanturu ostavili smo za poslednji dan odmora (preporucujemo tako, zbog sunca, jer ste stalno izlozeni, a do poslednjeg dana imacete i neki ten). Apsolutno svaki deo ove avanture je bio savrsen, pocev od vodica Yannis-a koji je toliko pristupacan, komunikativan i najvaznije, opasan saljivdzija. Ponesite faktor obavezno! Svaki kajak dobije svoju suvu torbu da tu stavite sve sto mislite da ce vam biti neophodno. Mali savet: cipele za vodu su vam odlicne ukoliko ih imate jer je sve uglavnom kamenito. Tokom citave ture prate vas istorijske price pecina i mesta koje obilazite. Predjete oko 10km kajakom, ronite u potrazi za crvenim zvezdama i zutim koralima. Ulazite u skrivenu Plavu pecinu u kojoj je voda nestvarno plave boje (ko zeli moze cak i da skace sa mini grebena unutar). Na svakom mestu se zadrzavate neko vreme. Tura traje oko 4h (nasa je trajala duze jer smo svi bili super raspolozeni). Nigde nema zurbe, vazan je provod, cak smo imali i mini trku kajakom. U jednom trenutku na jednoj privatnoj plazi su nam posluzili rucak (spasete sa sosom i sirom) plus dinju kao desert. Vodici vas fotkaju tako da ako neko nema telefon, ima bar neku uspomenu. Vodici su zaista mislili o svemu. Nasa najiskrenija preporuka kada se nadjete na Lefkadi - ne propustite! Vredi svaku paru! Sve pohvale i definitivno se vracamo na jos neku aktivnost! 🥰

    Prachtige kajak tour

    Jessy_V, Apr 2024
    Ik heb met het gezin de kajak tour gedaan bij de gids Jannis. Het was super mooi en gezellig! Jannis weet er een feestje van te maken 🥳 mooie privé stranden en grotten bezocht + veel interessante informatie gekregen. Nogmaals bedankt voor deze mooi dag Jannis! Smoke on the water 😜

    Wunderbarer Ausflug in der Bucht von Mikros Gialos

    Thomas_P, Jul 2023
    Wir hatten eine wunderschöne und abwechslungsreiche Kajaktour. Das Paddeln und Steuern wurde uns sehr gut erklärt und wir konnten ohne Probleme die gesamte Distanz zurücklegen. Der Guide war sehr unterhaltsam und hat uns viel über die Geologie und die Geschichte der Insel erzählt. Das Schnorcheln in der Höhle und an den Stränden war wunderbar und wir konnten einige Seesterne und Korallen entdecken. Sehr zu empfehlen!
