On your Samaria gorge adventure, the bus will take you first along the north coast and then up into the White Mountains to the Omalos Plateau and the entrance to the gorge. There, at a height of 1.100m, you will begin the 16km walk through the longest and most beautiful gorge in Europe. After the strenuous but spectacular walk, you will be conveyed by boat on an equally glorious trip from Agia Roumeli, the village at the end of the gorge, to Chora Sfakion, where the bus will be waiting to take you back home. Good walking shoes are necessary. The hike is not suggested for people facing health problems, or suffering from conditions affecting their lower extremities the elderly pregnant women.

Our guide was amazing and really helped to make the trip as enjoyable and interesting as possible. She was so encouraging as we found it to be a very difficult hike (and we are experienced and very strong hikers) with the elevation and the smooth slippery rocks along the way that required slow and very careful footing.

En juillet, c'est déja embouteillé .... J'imagine le mois d'août. Sinon, ballade assez facile si on marche régulièrement

The Gorge per se was pretty great to look at, whatever little we could see of it that is. Almost all of the time we were looking down at our toes making sure we watched our steps. There were not enough stops to take a break, and take in the view leave alone enough of wash rooms along the way. There were absolutely no places where we could buy any refreshments or light snacks - None at all! One member of our group suddenly had an issue with his knee and there was no option other than to go ahead and complete the 3hrs that lay ahead of him. When we asked the tour guide (who was trailing behind the group lest there be any accident) if there was another route to complete this more quickly, all she said was "No more breaks!" and so he had to continue in bad form till the end. No first aid stations anywhere! Through the entire 16Km hike, I saw just one forest ranger (if I can call him that). He couldn't speak English at all and that left us using sign language to enquire about how long more we had to go. There were not enough signs along the way indicating how many Kilometres were left. Anyway, finally after 5.5hrs of struggle, we then had to walk to a bus which we were told was only few metres away! It was not! Needless to say there was only 1 bus coming collecting a group of pax and then we had to wait till that same bus came back to pick us up and so on and so forth! Seriously after such a long hike one would think, there would be more organization at the finish line at least! I would never recommend this trek for the faint hearted and not even for the experienced trekker as this was just so unpleasant! Worst I've ever been to!
