Reisroute
Vertrek op een luxe volledige dag ontsnappen naar Hydra, een van de meest elegante en beroemde eilanden van Griekenland, te beginnen in het hart van Athene zonder de lange reis naar de drukke haven van Piraeus. Dit is meer dan een dagtrip – het is een Griekse ervaring vanaf het moment dat je aan boord stapt. Sluit je aan bij een jonge lokale gastheer en geniet van verhalen, muziek en een ontspannen mediterrane geest terwijl de schilderachtige rit voorbij vliegt. Reis in een comfortabele bus langs bergen, olijfgaarden en uitzicht op de kust, met een stop bij het kanaal van Korinthe. Ontdek Griekse woorden, gebruiken en het dagelijks leven door middel van verhalen en minigames terwijl je verhalen hoort over Hydra's zeekapiteins, piraten en artiesten zoals Leonard Cohen. Aankomst in Metohi en oversteken naar Hydra op een korte schilderachtige boottocht. Ontdek de hoogtepunten van het eiland tijdens een begeleide wandeling door Hydra Town, langs elegante herenhuizen, stenen steegjes en naar jasmijn geurende binnenplaatsen. Kom meer te weten over het maritieme erfgoed van Hydra, de rol ervan in de Griekse Onafhankelijkheidsoorlog en proef traditionele amandelsnoepjes.
Na de tour geniet je van vrije tijd om Hydra op jouw manier te ervaren. Kies je favoriete strand, zwem in kristalhelder water, blader door lokale winkels, ontspan in een café aan het water of geniet van verse lokale smaken aan zee. In de middag keert u terug per boot naar Metohi en geniet u van de schilderachtige rit terug naar Athene. Met 4,5 uur op Hydra, combineert deze stressvrije eilandontsnapping cultuur, ontspanning en authentieke Griekse charme. Keer niet alleen terug met prachtige foto’s, maar met een diepere band met Griekenland – en voel je misschien net iets Griekser.

The bus ride to the boat was longer than we anticipated…not unpleasant in any way, just longer. Once we arrived at the island we had a great time. There are many options to consider but the main disembarking area is lively and fun. The water is very beautiful…a dark blue which is hard to describe. The “beaches” are different than what we know in the states. Rocky out cropping or pebble/stone. Taking some sort of water shoe would be advisable. Once in the water though, it is a great experience. Overall we would recommend this tour if you have a full day to invest. Just be ready for a lot of time in a bus going and then coming back. BTW, the pick-up and drop-off area has some great food options for the return trip and a nice coffee stand for the pick-up.
The experience was very good. Punctual and with a very good guide who provided us with information throughout the journey. The ferry crossing to the island is faster, but we chose this option because it included the land transfer, which allowed us to see and enjoy the landscapes of the Peloponnese along the way. We had time to stroll through the village, take a dip in its wonderful waters, and enjoy a lunch. We would have liked to stay an hour longer in Hydra; we will surely return.
It’s a tedious trip; they didn't mention you'd be spending eight hours on a bus with nothing interesting going on. On top of that, the guide was an aggressive jerk—she got into an argument with the boat supervisor, and we all thought it was going to come to blows. Hydra is spectacular, but the journey is a nightmare. I do not recommend this tour.
We missed our meeting on the first occasion. The meeting place was busy, and we were 20 meters from where we should have been (the company guide for another tour kindly included us). We rebooked and enjoyed both the guide and tour. As with Greece generally, hilly walking, but Hydra had some nice restraurants overlooking the bay, and we were given time to explore. A tour to be recommended.
We had 4 hours of free time on Hydra Island. It’s a beautiful island. Angelina, our tour guide, is definitely a big asset to the company.
Overall I got what I expected. It was a long day. Taxi was easy (just wish the cost was included in the price of ticket). Hydra was pretty and nice to learn a few things along the way there. What made me stop from giving a 5 star, we got back way later than I expected (so I was tired and hungry by the end of the day). We didn't get back into Athens until 9:15pm. The stop on the way back didn't leave much time for food / snack as we were on a time crunch. Also itinerary we got, was not what it was a time of booking which was disappointing (so I guess they can change without telling you - otherwise I would have booked the other option I was looking at). We did have a nice walking tour, opportunity to eat where we want and free time. There are no beaches in the port, they are a bit of a walk or you hang out on the ledges "in town". Not sure I would book again going back in time. But happy I got to see the island of Hydra.
Beautiful scenery on the drive. Goran was an excellent driver. Informative, warm, friendly, and accomodating tour guide.
Hydra is beautiful to visit and Vicki did great walking tour explaining the island’s history with Greece’s fight for independence. Plus Hydra has the most friendly cats in all of Greece!
Nice tour . A bit of everything.. Lydia, the guide was great. Enough for taste Hydra atmosphere.....on the other hand a bit long...
Βασίλειος was our guide, he was very attentive and super friendly. What I did not accompany was the weather, rain at times and we did not have the walk to the beach. Overall it was a great day, despite the 3 hours out and 3 hours back, which were made enjoyable by Βασίλειος's explanations and conversation. We would certainly repeat. The 5 of Bilbao
