Incredible hike! Kostis was the best tour guide I’ve ever had, a very knowledgeable guide. Everyone must be in great hiking shape to complete. A hard hike but absolutely worth it.
Hello Mark, Thank you so much for your kind words, it truly means a lot. I really enjoyed guiding both of you and sharing this experience together. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the hike. All the best, Kostis
I could not recommend this experience enough ! I had a great 2-day hike up to the Muses' Plateau on Mount Olympus with Konstantinos, a guide so interesting and kind that we ended up talking about everything possible, from science and restriction enzymes, to edible organic flowers and kiwi farming, with a dash of Duolingo and a lot of laughter that made hiking seem easier ! I felt very safe the whole time, as I knew the program was adapted to my fitness level. The night at the refuge was great, and the people were also very kind. I was lucky enough to even enjoy some extra views before the beginning of the hile such as the Dionysos Monastery, because we were ahead of schedule. The team was very accomodating in terms of pick-up and drop-off, as I came by train from the station a few kilometers away and they picked me up without any problem. If you are in the region, do yourself a favour and book this Mount Olympus hike, and you will create forever-lasting memories well worth the price !
Hello Angele, Thank you so much for your kind words, it truly means a lot. I really enjoyed guiding both of you and sharing this experience together. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the hike. Wishing you a wonderful time for the rest of your travels and I hope you continue to enjoy every moment. All the best, Konstantinos
Amazing trip. Kostas was the best guide ever. The views are astonishing. Definitely I will repeat. PS: some areas can be a bit dangerous, so don't do it if you are afraid of heights.
Thank you for the fantastic feedback! We’re so glad you had an amazing trip and enjoyed the stunning views. Kostas is a true gem, and we’re happy to hear he made the experience even better for you. We also appreciate the heads-up about the terrain—safety is always a priority, so we’ll make sure to remind future hikers about those areas. Looking forward to having you join us again for another adventure!
Great experience. Highly recommended to stay a night in a hut and the next day hike to the high peaks. Friendly and helpful leaders.
