Summary: We loved everything. Mike and Costas (I hope I spell the names correctly :)) are great guides. They are very personable, funny and above all very competent. The transfer back and forth was excellent. Canyoning was very varied and adventurous! We always feel safe while abseiling as well as cliff jumping and had a lot to laugh about. The food at the end was great class - so authentic Greek. We were newcomers and can’t wait to do such a tour with such great people again. Clear 5-star rating with exclamation point! And thanks again to the guides for this wonderful day!
