A fabulouse adventure - This was a fablulous excursion. Giorgio and Nikos are wonderful teachers and guides. They took us to some very special places and were super nice and fun to hang out with. The overall trip was not too challenging, but a real adventure. One of the highlights of our trip to Greece. Highly recommended for people of all ages and abilities (kids too!)

You need to do this!!! - You need to do this!!! My husband, daughter (age 13), and I just took part in the Sea Kayaking in Kardamili experience. George and Nick were amazing guides. They gave us paddling and safety tips before we set off, told such great stories about the sites along the way, with a little bit of history tied in, and are super friendly! The sites along the way were stunning (blue water, cliffs, caves, the blue cave, beautiful beaches, etc.). The lunch prepared with local ingredients really hit the spot (bread, fresh veggies and fruit, cheese, olive oil, olives), and it was really lovely to enjoy the food picnic style on a beautiful beach. We highly recommend this experience!

Very nice trip - Very nice kayakingtrip along the coast of Kardamili. We were very well taken care of by our guide George who showed us interesting spots including caves that we entered both by kayak and by foot. George shared many stories and myths relating to this area which was very interesting.

Great kayak tour with cave diving - Great kayak trip! The highlight was swimming in the cave and the color of the sea off the coast. The tour guides were very nice and looked after the group (11 people) well.

Beautiful day in the Aegean Sea - We had an amazing time with our guide George, who talked about the history & landscape of this beautiful place while we kayaked along the coast and into two caves. It was a perfect day. And he served a delicious lunch. Would highly recommend George and this trip

An unforgettable family adventure - Without much experience kayaking we set out for an excursion along the coast of Kardamyli with our kids (9-17). Fotis was an amazing instructor and guide, giving us confidence in the water and stopping along the way to tell great stories and taking photos so we could just focus on the experience. We landed in a stunning beach, took a short hike into a cave, swam in a magical pool and enjoyed a light lunch on the beach with excellent homemade olive oil. The equipment was great, the views are breathtaking (snow and sea!) and Fotis is super-nice, easygoing and knowledgeable. I can’t recommend Explore Messina enough. Go out of your way to do it!
