Reviews

Wonderful experience!! We had a great day, Alexis was extremely friendly and fun guy, well trained and knowledgeable! We had fun and felt safe throughout this activity! We highly recommend !!

Camp on a paradise-like deserted island!

The waters around Lefkada and Meganissi are ideal for a multiple-day Kayak tour. Alex of Trekking Hellas was not just a super knowledgable and caring guide but also a great chef. He grilled the most delicious fish right on the beach. The sea caves we visited are mind-blowing and great for snorkeling. Be aware that it's a real adventure involving serious exercise and camping in the wild, and that you can't bring much stuff along in the kayak.

Everything was awesome. The route, the team, the food and totally safe!!! The price is totally fine for what you get. I highly recommend it. You can see places you cannot visit by car which are all amazing.
