Vikos Gorge, beautiful Greece - Awesome Hike! What a day! My husband and I had the pleasure of being guided by George through the Vikos Gorge. The trail can be a bit challenging in some areas. George was a perfect guide for this. He is professional and patient, helping me when needed. I am 63 so this trail pushed my limits. It was a beautiful experience. I highly recommend this experience.

Brilliant! Nikos is a world class guide. - Nikos is a kind soul, who cares about making time in nature magical for all skill levels. Nikos was friendly and helpful from our first email correspondence to even beyond our scheduled tour. Every moment was lovely. My boyfriend and I were originally planning on hiking the Vikos Gorge, but the rain made us quite nervous to commit to an intensive downhill hike, for fear of injury. Nikos worked with us to plan an alternative hike. He cares about safety and made this time enjoyable. His level of thoughtfulness and deep knowledge of the region is unmatched. He took time to share historical, ecological and cultural facts. Nikos guided us through a tour that felt very personalized. From the excellent communication, arranging transfers, stoping to take photos and bringing us to a delicious lunch near the river, Nikos was truly a master guide. I have nothing but respect for him! Highly recommended working with him and Hikes4all.

Self-Guided hiking tour. ca. 10 days - The booking process (by email) was very easy and efficient. Nikos is fabulously flexible and helps you find an itinerary that suits you just perfectly. We did a self-guided tour based on his standard itinerary, but with a few tweaks. Personally, we don't like to have too many transfers, especially at the end of a walking day, as we like to be as independent with our walking as possible. There were quite a few transfers scheduled originally, but with Nikos' help we managed to cut down on a couple of them with slight amendmends. And even when we had to rely on them, Nikos made it very easy to schedule them, so we never felt stressed. Every special request was met (even a pick-up very early in the morning from Iguomenitsa port). and we loved how the name "Nikos" alone seemed to open doors like a magic pass. Everyone knew who we were, what we needed, and where we were supposed to go. Accommodation was good throughout, with some special gems in Tsepelovo and Kipi. Dinner was included, à la carte at either the hotel or a restaurant reserved by Nikos. We could choose whatever we wanted from the menu and only paid for drinks. Food was great, even if there was a bit of an overabundance of french fries :-) We do a lot of self-guided walking tours and are used to just being dumped somewhere and left to fend for ourselves for a week or so. Therefore, Nikos' level of involvement was a bit of a surprise for us in the beginning (you will be in contact with him every day, either in person, by phone, or by WhatsApp), but we appreciated it, as it made us feel very safe and allowed for last-minute changes, help, and recommendations. In short: we have never felt this well looked-after and this felxible on a self-guided hiking tour, and we've done at least one of those every year for the past 15 years. The region is an absolute gem. Hiking trails are well-marked and well-maintained, and the views are absolutely stunning. Very pretty villages. beautiful bridges, a breathtaking gorge... Go. Absolutely do go there if you have a chance, we can't recommend it enough. 15 years of hiking holidays. and this was one of the best. Thank you, Nikos!

Gorgeous Gorge hike with great guides - Simply breathtaking What a hike…tough, beautiful and so worth it. Our guide Vasilis and Nikos were amazing. Nikos arranged everything, even looked after our car keys to make sure it didn’t get misplaced during the hike. He provided walking poles and picked us up after the hike, even offered to take us back to the hotel if we were too tired to drive. A lovely person. Vasilis our guide was a sweetheart, he looked after us really well. We are very experienced hikers with good shoes. Etc but now in our 60’s and appreciated the care he took of us. Due to some misunderstanding we did not bring lunch. Vasilis gave us delicious home made cake, enough to give us the energy to complete the hike properly. He even found an easy way to avoid the rocks on our way up from the Voidomattis spring. Would love to do a longer trek with him and nikos next time.
