What makes Full Day Samaria Gorge 10-Mile Walking Tour a unique experience ?

Take the time for a hike in the Samaria Gorge: this guided 10-mile (16-km) walk takes you to a place of stunning natural beauty. You’ll be picked up in Chania by a comfortable bus and then prepare to be wowed by the gorge, as high limestone cliffs and quaint villages create the background for a great hike.

The challenge is a walking tour from one end of Samaria gorge to the other (18 kms).  This is a rough, rocky, uneven track through the gorge. On route there are many stopping points where you can find toilets and drinking water.  At some points the width of the gorge is only 3 m wide and you may have to climb over boulders. You will reach the end of the gorge at Agia Roumeli where we take a break and you can get a bite to eat (food not included)!

This hike is not suitable for the un-fit or for clients with heart problems, high blood pressure, or pregnant.

We return by boat to Chora Sfakion where we are collected by the coach.
