Beautiful walk with energetic Guide Renate! - We had a lovely walk with beautiful views. Very special was the energetic Guide Renate and the fun with which she told about the region and the church. The story about Maria Kyriaki will stay with me forever. Go for what you want!

Beautiful Tour with Very Good Guide - A lovely ride that felt in the legs. Amazing views and very nice and knowledgeable Guide. A big climb at the beginning of the tour, but after a little rest it was fine to continue and the road leveled off. The descent felt much shorter and we followed a mountain bike trail. Not difficult, but requires concentration. Highly recommended!

Amazing walk with an amazing guide! - Joined one of their walks and we loved it! Renate guided us through the beautiful nature with lots of passion and knowledge. You can tell that she loves the island. Next time we come we will join earlier during our holiday and talk to Renate what more they can offer. Highly recommended!!

Agia Kyriaki Walk - I have had the pleasure of taking three guided walks with Renate from Art & Walk, and each walk exceeded my expectations. Renate's guidance led us through beautiful natural landscapes while providing a wealth of information about the local flora, fauna and inhabitants of the island. Her passion for the environment and community is reflected in her compelling stories. I highly recommend Art & Walk! Advice: shoes with a good profile.

Friendly professionalism - This was more than a walk with a professional tour guide. Renate not only knows all about everyday life in Karpathos, herbs, diving, Karpathian history and culture. She is 100 % committed in a warm and friendly way and so eager to make you understand Karpathos. I strongly recommend you to take part of what Art and Walk offers. You might even end up drinking sage tea with new friends next to the prettiest greek church!

Challenging and very nice walk - We were lucky to have this walk alone with Renate, just the three of us. It was a very nice walk/climb up the mountain and into the forrest. Renate tells a lot of interesting facts about the nature and the island. And she is also very interested in hearing about you. We enjoyed every moment, even though it was quite a challenging walk. Sticks are needed!

Enjoyable walk on Karpathos - Super nice walk, beautiful surroundings and a good view over Pigadia. Our guide (Renate) was really friendly, and had great knowledge about Karpathos and it’s history. Would definitely recommend!
