In Memoriam, Michael Tsoukias 1956-2020

When I first visited Nepal, in the 80ties, as the leader of the first Greek Himalayan expedition I was surprised to find out that my country had many places as remote and authentic as Nepal and so the idea of creating a travel company that would promote Greece off the beaten path to foreigners, was conceived and the next year realized. Many years have gone since then and thousands of happy people from all over the world have visited places in Greece that they had never imagined before. From almost all of them I still hear the same comment: we never imagined that Greece is such a mountainous country with such wild and remote places. And I am also still amazed with the places I discover, either on foot, in a kayak or abseiling in a canyon, which combined with lots of history, real smiling and inviting people make the perfect combination of great trips – trips of a life time. I am also on the same life time trip and I am making sure that you will enjoy it as well – it’s a promise.

CEO

Stefanos Sidiropoulos

My involvement in outdoor activities was not at all accidental. It started through my spontaneous urge to live and act in the natural environment. However an organized plan of actions and the necessary (in conditions of long-term planning) element of patience where needed in order to accomplish my goal. Few people are lucky to be able to turn their “hobby» into their profession and I am pleased to be one of them. Now as a Deputy CEO of the company with the strongest network and the greatest experience in outdoor activities I set a new goal; To bring Greece to the spotlight through our uniquely designed products. Unique because they are adventures we wanted to create. My goal is to give prominence to the close relationship between tourism, culture, the natural environment and local productivity through outdoor activities, while always respecting the principles of sustainability. Always keeping up with the latest developments in the field of adventure travel, I make sure that our programs are adjusted to the latest trends of the industry. Therefore I aim to design comfortable journeys for active people addressing small groups for big adventures!

People and Smiling faces! Two very powerful words that define me. When these two are combined with action in the outdoors, it is for me the greatest success! I was introduced to the joy of outdoor activities at a very young age and owe this to my charismatic Godfather, as well as to a 25-year experience in the Greek Guiding Association. My organizational expertise came with my university studies in Business Administration and the first work challenges in the business world. With a background of 15 years in Organization and Management and after having tackled numerous challenging projects, it became clear to me that it was high time to turn my hobby into a profession. At Trekking Hellas and as a member of an irresistible team I combined my two true passions, outdoor activities and coordination and organization. I am honored and grateful to be able to work at the #1 Outdoor Holiday Tour Operator in Greece! It also gives me great pleasure to offer my service to the people centric approach of Trekking Hellas.

See you at a riverbank, wild gorge, or a breathtaking mountain peak! And always remember…. #SafetyFirst

Sales Representative

Theodore Kielich Kakoliris

Born in Florida and living in Athens Greece, I studied tourism management in the university of Kurt Bosh in Sion. While travelling and meeting new people, I realize how little I know about life. Therefore, I am always fascinated in new stories and adventures. Being an outdoor activity enthusiast, I found that Trekking Hellas fulfilled my interests, by sharing with the world the hidden treasures of nature that Greece has to offer.
With an experience in the inbound tourism of Greece, if anyone finds themselves in our “neck of the woods”, get in touch with Trekking Hellas, to show you the magic Greece has to offer.

Since I was a child I was really excited about travelling and exploring new places. I enjoyed every moment I could spend in the nature. I have been living in Greece for 5 years now and still I am impressed by the rich Greek nature.

When I became a part of Trekking Hellas team I discovered that there are a lot of possibilities to explore and enjoy the nature through activities. I am pleased to share my knowledge, and travel experience, help people to plan and organize their unforgettable trips in Greece
