Very enjoyable week of walking on the scenic lycian way. The walks were all as descibed on the explore itinerary - some challenging, all rewarding. Our guide zep was great, informative on the history and culture without overloading us and with a fun personality. All very professionally run. Accommodation generally good and as described, though the last hotel in kas had no wifi in the rooms.which was irritating. The food throughout was excellent with generous amounts provided where it was included and good restaurant recommendations where it wasn't. The optional dune sunset trip at Patara was well worth doing, and the boat trip on the last day was a great, relaxing activity to finish on.
The crew and tour leader were fantastic. There were many stops along the way for swimming. The history learned and walking through the many historic towns was illuminating.
The lower cabin is very very spacious and quiet.
Our visit to Crete was definitely our Top 3 Hiking Tours (Mt Blanc and Portugal are runners up). The people are wonderful the food amazing. Fantastic routes and weather .
Great trip, a very varied trail which goes point to point across the south of the island so you get a sense of achievement whilst experiencing coastline and unspoilt villages in the interior. Excellent guide who is very knowledgeable passionate about the island, local guides make all the difference and Spiros is one of the best. Great food and time to swim and relax as well as full days of walking. Be prepared to walk the distances on this trip, it's not technically difficult but get used to walking this far before you go.
Would highly recommend this trip. It provides great variety in scenery, beginning in the very hilly area around the base of Mt Olympus; down into lovely valleys and then stunning coastal scenery. We found the written directions to be excellent while the red and white track markers gave us lots of help as well. We were very impressed with Mehmet who kept in contact with us at the end of each day.
I highly recommend G Adventures for people traveling alone and want to step outside of the typical tourist locations and activities. The CEO was an absolute professional with great character and knowledge.
Fantastic trip! Loved the food and the hikes. The local guides were fantastic.! They definitely added to the enjoyment of the trip. Beautiful scenery and included activities. Lovely, like- minded group of travellers and an awesome CEO!
Thank you very much for creating such a fantastic and unforgettable experience for us in Turkey. Veysel's companionship and guidance truly made a difference. He's not just a great guide, but a wonderful person who made us feel like family. Thank you again. If we ever return to Turkey, it will be through you guys.👍👍
Christoff was wonderful. Very patient with 70+ year old people. We had a fabulous time. Crete was my favorite Greek island. Please remind him to work on introducing a dirty martini to Greece!!!!😊♥️🍸
