Reviews
Amazing tour! Great food, sights and great guides. We had a wonderful time. We were a large group but were easily guided by the manager of the agritourism office ROUTES. The atmosphere was amazing, the weather was quite good, we will definitely prefer it again.

The office was recommended to us by a friend, and now I can see why! It was definitely one of the most beautiful parts of our vacation. The drivers were all very friendly, experienced and professional which made it a real pleasure.

We visited the Kalamata area with my family, most of whom had never been to Greece before, and thought we'd try the "ROUTES" office's agritourism routes, and we're definitely glad we did. Recommended!
