8 days in Lesvos and Chios. Retreat to earlier eras when life was simpler --- that’s the feeling inspired by walks in the aromatic olive groves on Lesvos trails and the beloved mastica villages in Chios
Lesvos, also known as Mytilini, is Greece's biggest secret. It is the third largest island, yet comparatively unaffected by packaged tourism. You will find a rich culture, a proud people and a lovely walks that acquaint you with Lesvos' natural beauty. And don’t forget, this is the island where ouzo was born!
Lesvos' southern neighbor Chios is renown for the unusual Mastic Villages which hark back to medieval days when the Genovese city-state colonized Chios in the 14th and 15th centuries. Chios is the only place where mastic, an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, is cultivated. Chiotes put mastic in cheese, liqueur, gum, shampoo, ice cream, body lotion, you name it.
Note: Our predesigned set itineraries mean the day-to-day activities and destinations are already created, you choose the dates. The basic price of our walking and hiking set itineraries usually include vehicle transfers to the evening destination and the hike's start/finish points.
