We customized a multi-day tour with Aegean Outdoors that included island hopping to Tinos, Naxos and Santorini. A mix of hiking, history, and downtime to explore Athens and its islands. All the selected accommodations were great in terms of location, amenities, and comfort. Our guide, Archelaos, was exceptional and made the experience feel personal.
Thank you very much for your lovely review!
A fantastic walk around the hills of Athens with Katerina, who gave us information about the city and its inhabitants over time. Great experience!

Wonderful time exploring the hills surrounding Athens historical center. Our guide Helena was easygoing , very knowledgeable and fun to be with. This was another experience of our family with Aegean Outdoors.
Thank you very much for your review!
Me and a friend of mine and our kids told us to combine our Sunday walk with something more interesting for the kids and finally the idea proved excellent! In addition to seeing our city "otherwise", as we don't know it in the madness of everyday life, the little ones enjoy it. The organization was perfect, our escort Kostas very informed and pleasant. I will definitely soon again prefer the Aegean Outdoors and for excursions outside Athens!
Thank you very much for your lovely review and for sharing the word about us! :)
A fabulous way to hike the highlights of Greece - Mt Olympus, Vikos Gorge, Meteora. Guides were efficient, caring, attentive and above all, really good people. Food was outstanding.
