Epirus Mystery Tour

4.1/5
5 reviews

Mixing history, nature and mythology, this full day tour takes you to see some mainland gems, which are only a stone's throw from Lefkada. You'll take photos in Nicopolis, cross the River Acheron by boat and wind up at the pretty seaside town of Parga.

After crossing over to mainland Greece, you'll make a photo stop by the Early Christian Walls of ancient Nicopolis. Learn about this ‘City of Victory' and take a few pics before heading to Ammoudia. Here, you'll board a boat and glide on one of the most mythical landmarks of the ancient world – the River Acheron. Legend said it was where the souls of the dead would pass through to Hades and the underworld. It's also home to many species of birds.

And finally, you'll reach Parga, known as the ‘jewel of Epirus'. You'll have free time to wander around, head up to the medieval fortress, duck into a taverna for lunch, hit the beach or browse the many jewellers before returning to the island.

    Er was te weinig beenruimte en de stoelen waren erg smal. Hierdoor werd de excursie erg oncomfortabel. De reisleidster was druk met praten met de chauffeur en had weinig aandacht voor haar gasten. Bij de ruïnes werden we eruit gezet en er werd ter plaatse niks verteld over waar we naar keken. De riviercruise was wel aardig. Parga was erg mooi, maar ook hier werd weer niks verteld. Al met al was deze excursie een teleurstelling.

    De eerste stop was teleurstellend en had beter bij het theater plaats kunnen vinden. Het boottochtje op de Archeron rivier was erg mooi en leuk. De hostess was tijdens de gehele trip in de bus 1001 feitjes en jaartallen aan het oplezen. Het hield maar niet op en als ze daarmee klaar was begon ze met de chauffeur te kletsen. Heel irritant en de andere passagiers klaagden ook hierover: Wanneer houdt ze haar mond?

    Prachtige trip. Parga bv is erg mooi. Lange rit. Te weinig tijd om alles te ondernemen dus keuzes maken.

    Van de boottocht hebben wij genoten, een aanrader! Maar is het de lange busreis waard? 2.5hr heen en 2.5hr terug? (nee dus) De gids was deskundig. We hebben veel interessante geschiedenis gehad onderweg. Alleen de PA stond veel te luid, m'n oren suizen nu nog. Het uurtje in Parga is eigenlijk te kort. Op de terugreis deed de airco in de bus het niet (buiten 31°).
