Itinerario
La gola di Imbros è con una lunghezza di 8 km la seconda gola più lunga della nostra isola. Corre quasi parallela alla gola di Samaria. Sebbene non sia così conosciuta come la famosa Gola di Samaria, è una vera bellezza naturale, particolarmente interessante per la sua incredibile vegetazione lussureggiante. Molte piante e fiori endemici cretesi sono di casa lì. Richiede alla maggior parte degli escursionisti circa 3 ore di una camminata relativamente facile. Hai bisogno di scarpe comode e forti o scarpe da ginnastica. Successivamente, il nostro autobus ci porterà a Frangokastello oa Chora Sfakion dove potremo nuotare o gustare un pasto nelle taverne locali.
Arrivo a Sfakia dove si può nuotare o divertirsi un pasto nelle taverne locali. Chora Sfakion è la capitale della remota e montuosa regione di Sfakia. Il paesaggio selvaggio si unisce alla quiete. Affascinante località balneare. La spiaggia sabbiosa con le acque cristalline è adatta per rilassarsi dopo le escursioni. Qualche caffè negozi e taverne si trovano all'interno e intorno ai villaggi. Nel suo quartiere settentrionale, troverai le rovine del veneziano "Fortezza di Sfakia" o "Castel di Sfacia o Sfachia" dove è possibile avere una vista panoramica di Sfakia e ammirare la natura selvaggia del natura.

We really enjoyed the gorge walk and thought the guide was very good in her communication and organisation. Only thing we didn't like was the extra time added on to the return journey by dropping people off at many hotels in Chania Town - this didn't happen on the outward journey.
Great hike - very doable and not too strenuous. It is a great day outing from Chania. You get to see the countryside, the mountains, and the beach experience at the end is an added bonus.
Welcoming with a smile at our hotel, which was in Chania. Top-notch host, always giving good advice, pleasant and available to answer all our questions. A hike that will leave the four of us with incomparable memories… Upon arrival, a picturesque Cretan village, a short stroll through the alleys. Pure happiness!
Great overall with a perfect length and difficulty for my 60 year old bones. Certainly not a walk in the park with rocks and rubble on 98% of the trail. Could be better organized. At the start, the bus pick up spot was 100m and around the corner from the location pinned in the confirmation, but the tour guide came and found the groups waiting. When we got to the end of the trail, we were confused as to where to meet the bus, so again we waited for the guide to find us.
If I could give this no stars, I would. This is an extremely poorly organized, executed tour program with no communication from the tour operator whatsoever. Save yourself the grief and do not use this company! I booked this tour through Viator and was confirmed for pickup at my hotel through the Viator app. There was no communication from the tour operator about pickup time, which is the usual protocol after booking confirmation. I made several attempts to communicate with the tour operator the day before and the morning of prior to the tour using the contact info given on the Viator ticket. I used the Viator chat, WhatsApp, numerous phone calls, and email. I even had my hotel reception call. There was no response from the tour operator through any of these. The phone would ring, hang up and then go to a busy signal. The morning of the tour, I waited at my hotel as dictated on the ticket. No pickup. It wasn't until after 0815 on the day of the tour, I received a phone call from a bus company telling me I was supposed to be at another location at 0810 (was never given to me), and had missed the bus. I was told as I was now trying to get to the new location, that the bus had left and I could take a taxi to find the bus. I was told I would not be reimbursed for the taxi because the bus company told me they had no fault in this and to take it up with the tour operator. The tour operator is non-responsive despite numerous phone calls. Non-existent customer service or follow-up communication. Again, donot use this company! I have submitted a request for a refund through Viator. If that fails I will submit the refund for services not delivered for both this company and Viator. Viator needs to do a better job of vetting these tour companies.
If you're wondering whether to do this trip, I can't encourage you more and here's why: 1. Great value for money 2. Well organised and informative 3. Breath-taking scenery 4. Excellent transport 5. Local pick up and drop-off points. The more robust your footwear, the more enjoyable an experience this will be. Myself and my middle-aged partner were initially apprehensive, but that soon disappeared and we certainly were not disappointed!
The Imbros Gorge is beautiful. The hike which is predominately downhill, is about 5.5 miles. The one major issue is the rocks. I mean millions of rocks that you must navigate through. I have wonderful hiking boots and my balance was tested as well as my feet punished from the grueling terrain. The hike is not easy. It is not treacherous but it is more physically demanding then guide books let on.
We were told we'd be picked up at our hotel. They called at the time the tour was to start and said they couldn't pick us up at the hotel, that they'd notified us. They had not. The man who called me was rude. The gorge walk itself was really nice. No problems with that part
Went with my family - 8,11,13 Yr olds - no issue really. Not hard but for younger children than mine might be too much, temperature was fine end of October but maybe too hot earlier. Guide was engaging and entertaining. Lovely stop at a small town for a swim. Overall we really enjoyed it.
Lovely courier. Interesting and epic scenery. Lovely taverna...nothing to dislike and a trip to the Libyan Sea was a lovely finale
