Summary: The bustrip took us high into the mountains where we saw the most breathtaking nature. We had a longer stop in the charming mountain village of Monodendri, where we had time to stroll around and soak in the atmosphere. Lunch (included) was served at a local hotel and featured a regional specialty – chicken pie – which was delicious.

Summary: A lot seen in 1 trip! I was really amazed by the Vikos Gorge. Could have stared at it for an hour! Because of the many stops, the time per stop was relatively short. But I'm glad I've seen so much beauty
