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.

A beautiful day of adventure - We were able to get to know the areas of the island that you cannot see as a tourist, only with the off-road vehicle were we able to get to know this side of Kos, our driver Efrosini was a good and very professional driver who was able to give us new, very interesting insights with her knowledge of the country and its people, the tour was entertaining and very well organized, the conversations with Efrosini about the history of the places visited and her personal additional information were never boring, so that at the end of the tour there was no time to finish interesting conversations, under the impressions of the day we said goodbye to Efrosini far too quickly and did not even realize that we were standing in front of our hotel again
We fell in love with this island in 2019 and will visit it again in 2024, then we will definitely book another tour with Uncharted Escapes and hope that our driver will be called Efrosini again

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) :)

Recommended excursion - The car was clean and in tip-top condition. Our driver was super nice and told us a lot about the island and the people. Lunch was in a nice bar with a wonderful view of the sea and it tasted good. The whole trip was nice to get an impression of the landscape. It could have been a bit more off-road though. We also found it to be very short. We were back at the hotel by 2:15 p.m. Thank God we skipped the planned swimming stop (because of the wind) and instead went to Plaka (peacock forest) and tasted/sold honey. We had secretly hoped to get to the west of the island too.
We had 40 minutes in ZIA, which was really enough. It's tight in the back of the car for five adults unless they're small and petite.
Our highlights were the mountain and the deserted mountain village.

Average Tour - Firstly the driver/tour guide was excellent plenty of knowledge of the area and very engaging. The transport was clean and comfortable and one felt safe also. The off road part of the trip was cool.
I felt the number of stops on the trip where quite small and apart from the lunch break, the time spent on stops where very short. Time taken for lunch break was two hours (opportunity to swim also) which was. in my opinion too long and instead more time could have been given to additional stops to
Other parts of the island,
Lunch itself was of a very poor quality - a portion of lukewarm Moussaka with no salad or indeed desert given or offered. A drink was available though. After lunch break we headed straight back to the pick up point without further stops and the tour finished there at just past 3 o clock.
Overall I felt this tour offered fairly poor value for the actual cost.

Below average experience - The driver/guide was great and full of information plus the off road part of the tour was good and very different.. The transport provided was clean comfortable and safe.
However, the number of actual
stops where few and then apart for lunch quite short. The lunch provided with the trip was also very poor, I had a lukewarm Moussaka with no salad or desert given or offered. I felt the 2 hour stop for lunch during which one could swim also if one liked was too long and perhaps we could have had a visit to other site or sites after lunch instead of going straight back to the pick up point, this was at 3 in the afternoon. Overall because of these reasons Iwas disappointed with the tour and I felt that the trip possibly offers poor value for money.
