Walking the Mountains and Villages of Evia’. ✨I found the tour charming and well organized, particularly due to the efforts of our guide, Thanos. The scenery was inspiring, as was the mix of history and nature served up by our fine guide. I knew I was in for something special when Thanos began plucking pomegranates along the path, breaking and sharing them with each traveler. For me our hikes were occasionally challenging, but in a very good way where I felt accomplished at the end of each day. Our hotel had everything we needed; clean, comfortable, well located and with beautiful bay views. The hotel staff and restaurant service were uniformly friendly and helpful, as was transportation timely and safe. I particularly enjoyed meeting and sharing the experiences with the other members of our small group. By day we enjoyed delightful local pastries and sandwiches. During the evenings we were lavished with appetizing meals and wines in the Karystos area. Our guide couldn’t have been more attentive to our individual needs. A vacation both adventurous and relaxing.

Evia Holidays
One of the largest of the Greek Islands, Evia is also one of the least known. Surrounded by cyan seas, beaches and coves, and with a mountainous interior of rivers, streams and forests, scattered with ancient monuments, all linked by old stone pathways, it’s a walker’s paradise.
Explore Roman quarries and aqueducts, Byzantine churches and Frankish castles, and spend days swimming and snorkelling at deserted beaches and coves. A walk down the famous Dimosaris gorge, ending at the coastal village of Kalliani, is a highlight of Evia trips. Stay in the pretty port of Karystos and each night eat in a different taverna, where succulent octopus, sizzling grilled cheeses, locally produced wines and golden-hewed honey are all on the menu…
