Great day! - A great day! It's all been said before, so I won't repeat but I would definitely recommend. It's quite expensive, but we enjoyed the day. Lunch was ok.

Amazing experience - I had an amazing experience on the safari tour with Yannis. He was an excellent guide and driver, and he is clearly very experienced and knowledgeable about all the places and history of the island. He was also very thoughtful and made sure I was okay throughout the entire tour. Also, the sights and stops on the tour were incredible.
I 100% recommend this tour for an unforgettable experience - I would definitely do it again!

Highlights of Kos - Excellent host who obviously loved his island. The views from the top of the mountain was the highlight.
Lunch at Dolphin Bay was great. The beach not really suitable for swimming as lots of seaweed.
Was great to get off the beaten track.

Thrilling,breathtaking,exciting,adventurous! - Fantastic all round day out on this trip . Yanis was our driver/guide and he really made the experience even more fantastic! Very nice man, funny, and courteous. The views on the stops were breathtaking and the village of zia is beautiful. We also visited a ghost (deserted) village and a 600 year old castle. The ride was thrilling at times if you like the excitement of offroading with all that comes with that but not for the faint hearted! Lovely day out, thoroughly enjoyed and I would highly recommend. (Especially Yanis) :)

Great Day Out - This is a fantastic experience kicked off by being picked up by Fanis and Yannis from our out of the way accommodation promptly just before 9am. All smiles, they checked we had everything we need, told us a bit about the plan and to relax! We were lucky enough to have a private tour as it’s very early in the season and the team were taking the opportunity for a bit of practice. We can’t remember all the stops we made as we whizzed all over the island but there were breathtaking views from mountaintops, flamingos on lakes, tortoises in the undergrowth, ghost villages, thriving farms and home made lemonade, windmills, castles and churches. The team looked after us all day, making sure we were safe, taking pictures for us in the most scenic spots and were very knowledgable about their fantastic country. The tour finished in Zia at a lovely restaurant with a gorgeous view - the delicious chicken souvlaki and Mythos were included in the price - which we thought was fantastic value. Lunch was followed by a wander around Zia admiring the neighbourhood cats, picking up some souvenir olive oil and finishing off lunch with ice cream. Yannis and Fanis whizzed us home with a couple of extra hours to lie in the sun before dinner! Highly recommended.

Not enough time for exploring - As we did similar trips before we had hoped for a similarly good experience. Unfortunately not quite. The driver was friendly but didn’t explain a lot. Apparently more the introvert person.
The first stop in the mountains, he shortly explained what is what. We had a few minutes and then back in the car. I would have liked more time. Same in “ghost” village or more importantly Zia. 30 min is hardly enough to explore it nevermind enjoy it. The money factor again felt like cattle driving through the shop, obviously hopefully spending some money and hopp in the car again.
The restaurant at Camel beach was really nice. We chose not from the menu provided for the tour guests but the actual restaurant menu as this food was great. Not sure why we would chose spaghetti bolognese and similar food when the restaurant is a great fish restaurant.
The hour at camel beach - we don’t need that as we have a beach at the hotel and I believe most people being on Kos have this to some extent. So really in our opinion (and just ours) we would do without it and rather have more time to explore the other parts/stops of the tour.

Varied exploration with a great guide but also dusty breathing air - First of all I want to thank the tour guide for an informative exploration. He was punctual, very friendly and helpful. The tour itself is varied and each stop was worth it. We didn't lose too much time for each stop, so it never became boring. I just gave three stars (or points) due to the fact that in the rear of the car the air became very dusty and hard to breath when we were on dusty roads. Somehow the dust and dirt run through the left rear speaker. Therefore it was not very enjoyable in the car. The sightseeing and the food was very enjoyable indeed.
