Testimonials about GrEco Hiking

Julie Hancock, Stoke on Trent, England

Yannis was the most amazing guide. He tailored and adapted walks to ensure they always matched the ability of our group as a whole. He involved us in decisions, if there were any options in the route, or about where and for how long we had rest stops. His knowledge of the area, wildlife and Greek history and mythology was absolutely outstanding, he shared many interesting stories, in a very engaging manner. He was also a very caring person and great fun to be with. Some of his stories over dinner in the evening had us all laughing out loud.

Joanie Parsons U.S.A.

I have traveled many places and hired guides to support us on our journey. Hands down, Yannis was the best guide we have ever had. We is knowledgeable, energetic and, of course, fun. We loved him and he made our trip to Greece just fabulous.

David and Pauline Norwood Stoke on Trent, England

We spent a week in Greece with friends being hosted by Yannis on a sailing / walking Holiday, his commitment to our wellbeing during the week far exceeded our expectations, he was professional but very personable, he made for great company, we would have no hesitation in booking him again, we would highly recommend him to any one considering using his services.

Elaine Bernstein London, United Kingdom

Yannis is a really excellent guide in many ways. He is extremely kind and courteous, intelligent and informative, and moreover has the ability to laughs often! Of course his level of fitness and ability is second to none, so not only will you feel completely looked after, you’ll also keep being inspired and challenged. It was lovely spending time with Yannis during the few days that I was with him and I highly recommend him.

EXPECTATIONS

Private

Cost

The cost of a private hiking tour depends on the type of tour you book and the services provided such as room prices, dining cost etc. We only offer private tours in order to maximize your experience with nature and the communication with your guide. Our Travel Experts can assist you choose the destination and accommodation upgrades you choose.

Guided or Privacy

Private hiking trips usually include a guide who is familiar with the trail and can provide valuable information about the region. Some private tours are partially guided, allowing you free time to explore on your own. In cases where a guide is not provided, such as on an independent adventure, you will receive a map of your route and a 24-hour emergency contact to ensure a smooth tour experience.

Group or Private

When you join a group hiking tour, you'll be traveling with strangers who share similar interests. The group size vary, and there will be a tour leader and a fixed itinerary that cannot be altered. You'll hike at the pace of the group, and the difficulty level of the tour cannot be adjusted. On the other hand, private tours offer more freedom and flexibility in terms of travel companions, accommodation, activities, and hiking comfort.

Custom-made Cost

Opting for a private tour usually means you have greater control over the itinerary. You can choose to upgrade your lodging, set the pace of your hike, select routes that align with your preferences, and in some, even pick your own dates. If you can't find a private trek that meets your needs, our Travel Experts are available to work with our hiking tour operators and design a tailor-made tour just for you.
