We had a perfect day kayaking with Alex. He really brought the history of the region to life while sharing his knowledge with us. The kayak trip includes a stop to swim and snack on homemade treats. Truly a highlight of our trip to Greece:

Alex was extremely knowledgable about the castles and battles that occurred. He was gave excellent instructions on how to handle the kayaks and remained alert to everyone’s progress. He was quick to get assistance to anyone who seemed to struggle. He asked if anyone had physical concerns that he should know about. I told him privately that I have a hearing loss and struggle to hear guides when on tours. He always made sure ai was nearby when he spoke but did so without drawing attention to me. He was very personable and visited with individuals in the group during the trip as well as during our break. We were served sweet breads made by his mother and fresh fruit during our break. I highly recommend this trip.

Wonderful experience!!
