Active adventure at its finest - What an awesome way to spend a day. George was so knowledgeable, passionate and interesting I couldn’t imagine coming to Ios and not meeting him. We were out in the hottest part of summer, George was in contact two days before our tour encouraging us to drink water and bring sunscreen. We under estimated the hills (mountains of Ios) but with generally decent fitness it’s all achievable just take breaks where you need. The photos and more importantly the map of our adventure are such wonderful reminders of our trip. We’ve done 10+ bike tours and while it’s one of the most challenging it was on the best bikes and so much preparedness. George’s philanthropy and perspective on Greek lifestyle and life in Ios were wonderful glimpses into life here and the stops at his and his wives gardens were wonderful. Olives, grapes and even fig picking on our trip. If you like to be active recommend you book and enjoy the rest of the lifestyle here after a good workout. Would book again on another visit.

Amazing and beautiful Ios - My wife and I had an amazing time with George. He is very knowledgeable about the history of the island and it's culture. The views are stunning and well worth the bike ride to see them

An Ios Gem - If you are on Ios this tour is an excellent way to explore the surrounding landscape, all whilst being in the presence of the local guide George who has an intimate knowledge of the island and is an amazing host. The electric bikes make this tour a really enjoyable way to get around, and if you are fit and healthy, you will have zero problems. The cheese tasting was a great addition I highly recomend when you cycle by. Overall, getting to see the amazing landscape and scenery is a breathtaking experience.
