3.Kourtaliotiko Gorge: Guided River Trekking with Lunch
5-hour guided river trekking through Kourtaliotiko Gorge in Crete, with neoprene gear, waterfall cave swim, and a light lunch.
“Fantastic adventure, from the very beginning till the very end. Great guids, highest professionalism and kindness. Real Crete experience, divine Forge, small waterfalls, ponds, refreshing current, smooth rocka, sounds, plants, trees, mountains above. First swim to the highest waterfall - worth the freezing bath! Then the whole way down is like a fairytale or legend :) after leasing the river don't fear the way up to the car - it's 2mins mildly up, then flat through the aromatic meadows in a valley. Best wear trekking sandała or simply trainers, the tighter the better since you cannot always predict the stones on the river bottom. And we truly recommend not going…”

Early morning horseback ride along Plakias Beach in Crete, canter 1.4 km by the sea with a small group, helmets included.
“Expérience inoubliable 🥰 Dès le départ, nous nous sommes sentis en sécurité grâce aux explications claires et à la bienveillance du moniteur. Il a tout de suite compris que j’étais un peu inquiète, et il a su me rassurer avec beaucoup de patience et de gentillesse. Mon copain, qui n’était jamais monté à cheval auparavant, a lui aussi été parfaitement accompagné et a pu profiter pleinement de la balade. Les chevaux sont calmes, bien dressés et adaptés au niveau de chacun, ce qui nous a permis de profiter du paysage incroyable sans stress. Malgré le prix un peu élevé, je recommande !”
