I would like to thank Alex for his honesty and respect to safety and guest comfort. Unfortunately the winds were from the North which would have made kayaking a challenge. He offered multiple alternatives, refund or walking tour and snorkeling with the sunken city. We chose the walking and snorkeling. He took us on a nice hike to the theatre in which his knowledge and enthusiasm was evident. We then saw a beautiful Greek Orthodox Church and view of an active volcano. Finished with the swimming and snorkeling over the ancient sunken city and light snacks and fresh fruit by the sea. I would recommend this excursion and hope to visit again! The port city is beautiful!
It is suitable for a variety of skill levels and physical abilities. Alex, our guide was very helpful, knowledgeable and truly cares about the area. We paddled along the peaceful clear blue sea. We saw multiple sea turtles, had great conversation, and learned about mythology and history of the area. They were even able to accommodate my 75 year old mother. We were sore afterwards, but would go again!
First-time ever to scuba and our guide put me at ease. He was very knowledgeable and accommodating! Would definitely recommend!
Oh wow. A must do and see. Our guides were more than just friendly. They were knowledgeable, curious, and told wonderful tales about every site we visited. Time passed like nothing as I was immersed in the experience. If you’re a lover of history, a lover of nature, a lover of exploration, you’ll for right in.
Guides were incredible, very knowledgeable and kind. We traveled as a family with two kids (7 and 11). It was our 7 year olds favorite thing that we did this entire trip. Highly recommend!
The trip with Luca was amazing - we would highly recommend it. Kayaking out to visit ruins and then snorkelling over the underwater ruins was a highlight of the holiday. Thank you!
If I could give this 10 out of 5 stars I would!!! This was hands down the highlight of our trip to Greece. Dimitra at PanExpeditions was SO helpful with logistics, booking taxis for us so we didn’t have to navigate public transpo to the meetup location, and being generally so communicative and kind! Our tour guide Luka was incredible, so knowledgeable about the history of the area, a great hang, and he brought snacks! Snorkeling over ancient ruins was indescribably cool. I will never forget this day!!
This was an unforgettable trip. The guide was excellent and the sunken city is a unique experience. Thoroughly recommend it!
❤️
Awesome experience, Alex and his team were amazing our girls 10 & 11 loved it
Alex was amazing. Incredible source of knowledge and very personable. Felt like we’d made a friend! Enjoyed the others on the tour with us as well. It was absolutely beautiful weather. The tour company was very communicative about the weather to ensure we booked a day that would guarantee a great time. Could not recommend this tour enough to anyone looking for an adventure with good people. 10⭐️ for sure. Would absolutely book this tour again if we come back!
