Awesome, Fun and Interesting
A Great tour, our Guide Ioannis did a great job. He is very passionate, knowledgeable and proud about this area. Ioannis navigated the roads safe and professional. We thoroughly enjoyed his knowledge about the local area and also was a pleasure hearing about his Family history. Ioannis is also very flexible about what to see and do on this tour. The pictures and video's were a nice bonus to recieve. I highly recommend this tour.
We were also fortunate enough to have booked the Half Day Tour to Central Zagori with him the next day.

Amazing experience with Epirus Traveller!!
We were very much looking forward to this tour and it completely exceeded our expectations! Our guide, Ioannis Smiris, was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and we had so much fun spending the day with him. He is also an excellent driver and we felt perfectly safe with him as he navigated the windy mountain roads. He showed us far more of the area than we had expected to see and helped to make this by far one of the absolute best days of our 3 weeks in Greece! We so enjoyed strolling through the beautiful village where he is from and enjoying a coffee in the square with him.
Tzoumerka National Park and all the amazing places and sights within it is an absolute must-see when in Greece and the Epirus region. We highly recommend taking a tour of the area and Epirus Traveller is without a doubt the best choice you could make to help guide you through it!! Thank you for a most fantastic experience!!

I love the continent
The beauty of nature fascinates you. It is one of the places that have nothing to envy from many places abroad. Although I am not from Epirus I believe that the area is endowed by God and people must respect this simple beauty that he gave us. Thank you for the very warm hospitality we received.
