Reviews
The trip generally met my expectations, although it was too focused on shopping and lacked more sightseeing, such as Pythagoria. A stop at the beach at the end of the trip was also unnecessary. But after such a day, you gain a better understanding of the nature, landscape, and views from various parts of the island. A big plus was the tour leader, Ms. Ewa, who spoke extensively about the island, Greece, and Greek culture in general. Organizationally, and thanks to the tour guide, the trip was very well-run, with great attention to detail, so I consider the entire trip a success.
A great trip! ❤️ You get to see so much, sample delicious local honey and wine, and even visit a pottery workshop to see how handmade items are made. But what impressed us most were the people. Everyone we met along the way was incredibly friendly, warm, and passionate. They made this trip truly unique. A huge thank you also goes to our guide, who passionately talked about the island, shared interesting facts, and constantly created a great atmosphere. I wholeheartedly recommend it!
