Fotis, Trifonas and Chris were exceptionally professional in preparing and accompanying us on our tour. They were delightful and very personable as well which contributed to a wonderful day on the water. I highly recommend their tour.

This was a fablulous excursion. Giorgio and Nikos are wonderful teachers and guides. They took us to some very special places and were super nice and fun to hang out with. The overall trip was not too challenging, but a real adventure. One of the highlights of our trip to Greece. Highly recommended for people of all ages and abilities (kids too!)

The Kayak Trip was so much fun. The water was amazingly clear, the views beautiful. Our tour guides George and Nicos were absolutely nice and told us many interesting things about the history and culture of Greece. The caves were stunning, a real adventure! I would go to this trip again anytime, thanks for taking us! Annina

You need to do this!!! My husband, daughter (age 13), and I just took part in the Sea Kayaking in Kardamili experience. George and Nick were amazing guides. They gave us paddling and safety tips before we set off, told such great stories about the sites along the way, with a little bit of history tied in, and are super friendly! The sites along the way were stunning (blue water, cliffs, caves, the blue cave, beautiful beaches, etc.). The lunch prepared with local ingredients really hit the spot (bread, fresh veggies and fruit, cheese, olive oil, olives), and it was really lovely to enjoy the food picnic style on a beautiful beach. We highly recommend this experience!

Breathtaking scenery, and more surprises along the journey!! We had an amazing time with George who’s got plenty to share about the area and the history of Greece. Definitely one of the best adventure I’ve been on across Greece ! Thanks so much we will be back

Very nice kayakingtrip along the coast of Kardamili. We were very well taken care of by our guide George who showed us interesting spots including caves that we entered both by kayak and by foot. George shared many stories and myths relating to this area which was very interesting.

We had an amazing time with our guide George, who talked about the history & landscape of this beautiful place while we kayaked along the coast and into two caves. It was a perfect day. And he served a delicious lunch. Would highly recommend George and this trip

A great experience for a lifetime! A great activity with a brilliant and very skilled guide - George! We had the most fun in the world! The highlight: the Blue Cave.

Without much experience kayaking we set out for an excursion along the coast of Kardamyli with our kids (9-17). Fotis was an amazing instructor and guide, giving us confidence in the water and stopping along the way to tell great stories and taking photos so we could just focus on the experience. We landed in a stunning beach, took a short hike into a cave, swam in a magical pool and enjoyed a light lunch on the beach with excellent homemade olive oil. The equipment was great, the views are breathtaking (snow and sea!) and Fotis is super-nice, easygoing and knowledgeable. I can’t recommend Explore Messina enough. Go out of your way to do it!

Although slightly pricey it was worth every penny. An amazing way to explore the beautiful coastline. Both our guides were amazing, really friendly and very fluent in English. The lunch and the swim in the sea cave were definitely highlights. Highly recommended.

Our family of four had a really fantastic sea kayaking trip from Kardamyli - we could not fault it and would certainly recommend it to others.

Fantastic sea kayaking outing with George, this was definitely a huge highlight of our trip to Greece. We are a family of 4 with two young children and none of us had ever kayaked before. George went out of his way to make us feel comfortable and teach us the techniques of kayaking. The views were phenomenal and the sea water so clear and beautiful. George knows so much about the land and history which made the trip all the more interesting. He took us into a cave which was spectacular. We also enjoyed a delicious picnic lunch in a small bay. I could not recommend this trip more highly!

Good afternoon, I want to share my pleasant impressions of the incredible kayaking trip that George and his team organized for us. We visited amazing places, the nature of these places is impressive and you admire how beautiful real nature is. Crystal clear water, caves, grottoes and a pool inside the grotto, a magnificent bay for a picnic with a beautiful view, and delicious treats - all this was provided to us by George and his team. The trip with excursion elements is impressive. Friendly atmosphere and a lot of positive emotions, thank you. You guys are great!

This adventure was the very best!! It was super fun. I can’t say enough good things about it. The scenery is gorgeous, the lunch was delicious, the water the most blue I’ve ever seen, the caves were amazing and the swimming inside the caves is second to nothing. You have to do this trip. It’s worth every single penny. Our guides, George and Chris were super fun as well. They were so patient and kind. They were funny and told great stories of the local history. I never felt unsafe.

Thank you Georgios and Chris for an incredible experience, we had so much fun! This tour was a highlight of our stay in Greece - if you're in doubt, this is your message to book this tour and get a unique view of the Mani peninsula's wild coast and caves from your Kayak! Together they lead us in a group of around 10 people from the Harbor of Kardamyli to see the wild coast and venture in some of the caves, including swimming in the blue cave nearby, which was a one in a lifetime experience for us. The care they took to make everyone feel welcome, comfortable, heard and have fun were truly unrivalled. Georgios gave plenty of historical and mythical context to everything we have seen and shared his pride of the Mani peninsula. The cherry on top was an extremely homely picnic on the beach featuring hand cut vegetables, local cheese and oil. Thank you so much for your expertise and kindness!

What a fantastic trip, we loved every minute of it! Thanks to Fotis for making us so welcome and looking after us. The trip is sooooo beautiful! Perfect for families.

We had a great trip - Fotis was a spectacular guide: fun and helpful and adapted our trip to the conditions on the day. We got to kayak into a sea cave and walk to another cave to swim inside. Fotis was really knowledgeable about the area and told great stories explaining the history, geology and landscape. He also brought a delicious simple lunch including olive oil from his own trees. I would definitely recommend a trip!

The Sea Kayak day trip was an incredible experience. It was beautifully organized from beginning to end. This is a great day activity also for people who are not well experienced with kayaking. The guide - Fotis - was wonderful; he explained everything very clearly at the beginning and set up a fantastic itinerary. We travelled for 8 1/2 Km along the coast, with breaks to see sites and some sea caves. Stopped for lunch and explored another underground cave and had a delicious picnic on the beach. He talked very eloquently about everything we saw and had boundless energy. It was a pleasure to spend the day with him. Then ready to head back to the port after about 4 hours. If you are exploring the area of Kardamyli, this is a unique way to look at the coast from the sea and get a very different perspective. It is a fun activity and not too strenuous. Cannot recommend it enough! The perfect way to explore the coast of Mani.

My husband and I did this kayaking outing last year while visiting Stoupa. We had a great time. The crew was wonderful and took excellent care of us. We spent a few hours on the water along the coast, saw caves, had a nice local lunch provided and met some wonderful people. We will do it again when we visit in 2024.

The weather was perfect for both the kayaking and swim in the blue cave. The water was a crystal blue, warm and clear. The tour leaders were fabulous, with interesting details of the area, highly skilled, where we felt totally safe and yet they took us exploring the coastline as well as inside two sea caves. I must say this kayaking trip plus swim in the blue cave ranks as a highlight of my time in Greece.
