Beautiful boat spoiled by the grumpy captain who was extraordinarily rude to our lovely guide which we thought was unprofessional and unnecessary. We felt uncomfortable and it made the experience unpleasant to start with, although once on the boat it was fine.

Just a breath from Kalamata stands mount Kalathi, a mountain visible from any side of the city. You can see it sometimes clear, sometimes lost in the clouds. It is very rare for a mountain of such height to be sited so close to the sea and the city. On its slopes picturesque villages smothered in green and even higher on its summit, forests of fir and pine trees and a stunning view to the Messinian Bay and the city of Kalamata.We begin our hiking trip from the cosmopolitan suburb of Kalamata the village of Kato Verga by following the cobbled path ascending west to the village of Ano Verga. A historic village perched on the mountainside with a plethora of old stone houses, narrow alleys and springs with crystal waters.

Inclusions: Guide, Tour planning – Sightseeing, Picnic with local products, Photographs from the tour, Liability insurance, All taxes, Snacks

Exclusions: Hotel pickup and drop-off

A great 6-day-kayaking-tour. We had good and bad weather, however, the guides George, Ana and Norbert always found a perfect alternative, like pool-training for wet exit, eskimo roll, etc or an alternative tour. All guides had been very supportive in every way and never-ending-patience with the pool-training. All of us could improve our kayaking skills a tremendous lot. George has a lot of stories (including history) to tell. We were spoiled with picknicks on remote beaches and a choice of excellent accomodation. But most important - we had a lot of fun in that week. A real highlight. I will definitely go back for more paddling next year with Explore Messinia.

This food tour was a nice combination of Greek history and Greek history of food. Lots of great shops! Enjoyed a nice variety of taste from breads/cookies, cheese with honey and spoon sweets, Herb shops, the central market, and our personal favorite which was the smoked meat!! The tour ended with a light lunch of Souvlakia sandwiches.. Our tour guide was just amazing, if you can request Sophie please do it you will be glad you did! We recommend you wear comfortable shoes and bring a backpack you’re sure to make plenty of purchases!
