“Excellent trip and amazing trek in the Imbros Gorge ..”
Walk the rocky Imbros Gorge with an English-speaking guide, passing Stenada and the Xepitira Arch before lunch and a swim near Chora Sfakion. Pickup covers Chania and nearby resorts. Bring sturdy shoes, water, sunscreen, and swimwear, which can stay on the bus during the hike.
“it's quite a ride from Chania but the scenery is wonderful and the coach was cool and very comfy. The gorge walk is self guided and very rocky and sandy so care is needed and good shoes. It's a lovely walk for 4 miles and by the end my knees and ankles were definitely aching. We got lunch at the tavern and it was tasty and good value. The trip to the Libyan Sea village takes 10 minutes, we had a swim in the really warm sea and a coffee then it's back on the bus. it's quite a long journey back, 1hr30 to Chania but again it passed pleasantly.”
Travel by air-conditioned coach from Chania to Imbros Gorge, walk its rocky 7-kilometer trail with an English-speaking escort, then relax or swim in Chora Sfakion. Guides including Nikos, Ingrid, and Vasilis have led departures, with time for a meal or coffee by the sea.
“Great day out. Pick up (~50 people) was slow but normal for such a large tour. Very organised and everyone was respectful of time, which helps. Beautiful gorge and perfect stop at Sfakia to finish the day. Recommend as an active day out but don’t book via viator as trip ended up costing us 20% more than the people paying on the bus.”
Pick a coast, a gorge or a kitchen.
