Fantastic hiking experience in Parnitha! - I had an amazing time hiking in Parnitha Mountain. The views were beautiful especially from Skipiza watchtower where we could see the sea and the nearby mountains. The hike through the forest was peaceful and we even spotted some wildlife. Our guide was excellent - super friendly and knowledgeable and made sure the pace worked for everyone. He also shared interesting facts about the area and kept the group energised. It was the perfect escape from Athens and I would definitely recommend this hike to anyone looking for a nature adventure close to the city!

BEST TOUR AND BEST GUIDE - We got to Greece early and wanted to go on an ancient marble quarry tour and found Catharina with Blumovo. We were very fortunate to have been set up with the amazing guide Dionysis. They took us on a short educational tour of the ancient rock quarries that supplied marble for the Acropolis, we learned about the fire that ravished through the town ravine in July, the ancient cave and monastery built into the rock and then to the 'marble road' that the 12 ton stones traveled down the mountain and up to the Acropolis. Dionysis then took us on a long but refreshing hike completely around Penteli Mountain (I say 20 miles he says 4 😆). We saw and learned about the most fascinating things including an open air marble quarry 'museum' and a village that the workers built in ancient times. He was very patient with all my questions even the personal ones about life styles in Greece. He was always conscientious of our age (65-70) compared to his (28) and slowed down to our pace towards the end when we needed it. We meet up again with Catharina hosting a lunch 'buffet' of Greek goodies for lunch on a marble slab at a monastery. It was unforgettable and is highly recommended. Get ready for a workout! Thank you for an amazing experience Catharina and Dionysis, this was a great start to our two week Gate 1 Greece tour.

Great hike in the mountains near Athens! - I’m very satisfied with this trip! My guide, Dionysis, answered all of my questions prior to the trip, ensured that I had what I needed for the hike, was very friendly, and was very knowledgeable. The hike was tailored to my pace, and was a great way to get away from the city and experience nature while not taking very long to get there from the city center. I highly recommend the tour!

Great Experience - I recently had the pleasure of hiking in Parnitha and I must say it exceeded my expectations in every aspect. Dionysis, our guide, was very pleasant and conversational through our hiking tour. He told us about the mountain and Athens in general. He picked us from our hotel in Athens and he returned us back.
