Pelion Boat Trip to “Poseidon’s Caves”530annakarine, Sep 2026
Wonderful green coast
GREAT boat trip from Ag. Ioannis north along the Pelion coast! Dolphins playing with us, snorkling above a ship from the WWII, swimming in different spots, even in the caves, music and laughter and valuable info from Dimitris our captain.

Great service, easy communication
We booked a transfer from Volos to Thessaloniki airport. Super easy to communicate, 100% reliable, safe and very friendly driver.
Thanks again Dimitris.

Lifesaver taxi service from Volos to Athens
When our Ryanair flight from Volos was cancelled, we suddenly had to get five people to Athens overnight in order to catch a replacement flight the next morning. Dimitris was an absolute lifesaver.He picked us up in his spacious minivan taxi and drove us safely to Athens during the night. Normally, with five passengers, we would have needed two taxis and paid considerably more, so we were very lucky that Dimitris has a large vehicle.He was incredibly friendly, helpful, and considerate throughout the journey. He even had a bottle of water ready for each of us. We felt safe and well looked after the entire time.We can wholeheartedly recommend Dimitris to anyone needing reliable, comfortable taxi transport from Volos.

Private Full Day Tour to Meteora from VolosDenise_M, Sep 2026
We greatly enjoyed our...
We greatly enjoyed our tour and we're very happy we chose a private tour. Konstantin was fantastic. He was very professional and accommodating. His recommendations were excellent. The monasteries are breathtakingly beautiful. Konstantin made many stops for photos at our requests. Although, it was very crowded at the sites, this private tour made the day feel less hectic. I highly recommend this tour.

Pelion Boat Trip to “Poseidon’s Caves”Venture731694, Sep 2026
Dream Trip
Dream come true! Our guide was extremly knowledgeable, had a lot of humour and looked like a greek god. Whats not to like. 😁 He took really good care of everyone and even helped a lady that was scared to swim, so she could experience even the caves and basically took her under his wings.

Monastery magic
Excellent private tour. Our driver Valavis was on time right at our ship. Explained where we would be going and provided just the right amount of history of Volos. We saw five monastery with drop offs and pickup right in front of each. Had a delicious Greek lunch without the crowded tour bus stops. The beautiful scenery and amazing location is worth the drive.

Make a dog’s day and taste Greece in Skiathoscarolines797, Sep 2026
A great day out for dog lovers
A fun day for dog lovers and people interested in Greek cookery and food.
It was well organised but still relaxed in true Greek style. Our tour guide Michael was very knowledgeable, friendly, and great fun.

East Pelion Mini Boat TourB1460KKangels, Sep 2026
An unforgettable experience and excellent value for money
Title: An unforgettable experience and excellent value for moneyWe set off at 10:00 a.m. and returned at 1:00 p.m., and every moment was unforgettable. We drank fresh spring water emerging right by the sea, climbed into hidden caves, explored the underwater world, and learned fascinating stories about Pelion, its people, history, and nature.The three-hour duration was more than enough, and the experience offered exceptional value for money—in fact, considering everything included, it could easily have been priced higher. The atmosphere on board was fantastic, with great music, beer, and plenty of water. Most importantly, the boat was not overcrowded: the number of guests was perfectly suited to its capacity, so everyone had a comfortable place to sit without feeling cramped.Above all, Alexandros was an exceptional captain and an incredible host. His passion and genuine love for what he does shine through—and that is exactly why he is so good at it.A truly unique 10/10 experience that I would wholeheartedly recommend to everyone!

Excellent experience
We traveled with Konstantinos and it was truly an excellent experience. A very kind, helpful, and attentive guide, with excellent knowledge of the area. It gave us a lot of useful information about the places we visited, but also about shops and anything else we needed. We thank him very much and I certainly recommend him!

Super nice taxi transfer
We were a group of 6 people for a transfer from Larissa to Volos and we had a super nice experience. Super punctual, professional, and friendly. The mini van was very comfortable and driving very safe. We would reuse their services without hesitating.

The most amazing day 🥰
I cannot put into words how much I enjoyed this day. Our host Michael was simply charming + we had great fun. Fitstly taking the dogs for a walk, getting to know the history & cuddle time with the pups followed by a great cookery lesson from local Maria and sitting down to enjoy her home cooked food topped off the perfect day! Highly reccomended trip for sure. Thank you Louise & Sophie!

Volos Pelion Full Day TourC6035RNjackb, Apr 2026
Pelion mountains tour
Excellent tour guide nice views. Best option if you don’t want to go all the way to Meteora.

Beautiful Monasteries with Breathtaking Views.
Beautiful monasteries built into and on top of mountains with breathtaking views. There are a lot of stairs to climb to actually get into the monasteries from the parking lot. You really need to be able to climb stairs without stopping (not very wide to pull over to rest). We saw quite a few elderly people struggling. That said, I'm 63 and didn't have any problem. Woman must wear skirts, not just have your knees covered. They do provide wraps for you to tie around your waist at no cost.
