Tour Program
We organize a short day getaway to favorite places and routes on the island of Lefkada with its wonderful beaches and the endless blue of the Ionian Sea. Cycling easily on the electric bikes, we end up swimming in ultimate “hidden” beaches. The beauty of the routes and the view will surely enchant you, the turquoise waters of the sea will leave you speechless and this two-day event will, for sure, be an unforgettable experience.
In the morning, we meet in the village of Mikros Gialos (Poros). Check-in at the hotel and depart on the electric bikes for the small beach of Afteli. After about 9km we reach the beautiful Egiros, a village with about 40 inhabitants, where Homer mentions that Odysseus drank water from a fountain located there, the “Arethousa spring”. After a short stop in the village and we go on for the last few minutes to our final destination. After Egiros, the view is truly breathtaking. The small plain next to the village of Marantochori is on our right and the clear blue Ionian Sea with the small beach of Afteli is at the end of the road which we reach in about fifteen minutes. It is said that Telemachus, son of the mythical king Odysseus, landed in this small cove, coming from Pylos, where he had gone to learn news about his father. Here, in this little paradise, one cannot resist the turquoise waters of the sea. At a very short distance from the beach, there is also the cave of Odysseus’ faithful swineherd, Eumaios, where Odysseus was accommodated. In Afteli, we have enough free time to swim, drink coffee and relax on the beautiful little beach. Then, we take the way back and after reaching Egiros, we stop in the village for an iced beer or coffee in the traditional village cafe. Then, we set off for our hotel where we arrive in the afternoon. After resting, we have dinner in the picturesque port of Syvota.
After breakfast, we are driven to the village of Agios Petros where we get on the electric bikes and head for the south-western part of the island, specifically for the enchanting beach of Egremni. The route through pine trees and the view of the endless blue of the Ionian sea takes our breath away. All the shades of blue combined with the white sand will undoubtedly delight even the most demanding visitor. In less than an hour, we reach the beach for a refreshing swim. Here, we have plenty of free time to relax and cool off by taking a dip in one of the most beautiful beaches of the Mediterranean! Afterwards, we take the way back to the village of Agios Petros on the electric bikes. In less than an hour and a half, we reach the village where we have lunch out in the village square, tasting local specialties, concluding a wonderful excursion to the wonderful island of Lefkada.

Η εμπειρία μας με τα ποδήλατα στα Τζουμέρκα ήταν κάτι το μοναδικό. Σε δυο κιόλας μέρες, είδαμε τόσα πολλά χωριά και μέρη με τον πιο διασκεδαστικό τρόπο! Τα τοπία ήταν μαγευτικά, οι υπηρεσίες που μας δόθηκαν εξαιρετικές. Τα παιδιά , ο Λευτέρης και η Χάρα είναι επαγγελματίες με όρεξη και διάθεση να προσφέρουν το καλύτερο!!! Αξέχαστη εμπειρία!!VerifiedYossi Z11 August 2023E-bike tour We went on a full day trip Two families with 5 kids ages 9-17 It was an amazing experience in a beautiful view with a surprising picnic with local quality products at the end. Lefteris and Chara we're very kind and attentive and gave high priority to safety. We highly recommend a trip withBijewise. מומלץ בחום !!VerifiedCasualSunseeker8 August 2023Amazing bike tours not to be missed. 5th to the 9th of May. Cycle tour of Zagori Tour of Zagori 5th to the 9th of May I had started writing a detailed description of the tour that we carried out on the bikes into Zagori between the 5th and the 9th of May. So impressed were we on the completion of that tour that I had just finished my first complete page of my review and realised that it would be very long and that I should shorten It. The bottom line is that we had the most astonishing time. The scenery was beautiful, the information that our guide (Lefteris) gave us was extremely detailed and interesting. It was absolutely clear to us that he had a great pride in his local area and the penultimate stop on this tour was in his local town. I had made the misconception of thinking that riding in central Greece would be a very dry and dusty place. Nothing could be further from the truth. I have visited the Grand Canyon in Arizona and the scenery that we saw during our tour, there was by far and away more spectacular than that. Every day on the tour was planned with great precision and our stopping point were always extremely interesting. Coupled with that every day lunch was provided for us and I have to say it was always incredible. Home-made food produced and laid out beautifully and incredibly scenic places. We could not have wanted for more. Every night we stayed in a different accommodation and each and everyone of them had its own individual character. Once again, we could not have chosen better places to stop. Every night we were taken out to a local restaurant and bar and the food that we ate during our four days was simply delicious. The silver lining around this particular cloud was that we did not have to pay for any of it and it was incorporated into our tour. As such the tour itself was incredibly good value and we are looking forward to going back to Greece again and do a different tour in another location. We cannot recommend the two are highly enough. We are also completely converted on the idea of E bikes! . Even though we did basically incredible climbs up mountains, the fact that we were on an E bike made it, whilst not very easy, easy enough that even though we had not ridden for a while, doing amazing climbs in the mountains was easily achievable. Our guides, Lefteris and Chara were simply delightful, and every day in the company was a great pleasure. I would not hesitate to recommend this cycling tour to anybody. If I had to give it a rating it would be a massive 5 stars and we cannot wait to do it again.VerifiedM.M.14 August 2022IMPERDIBILI!!! Hara e Lefteris sono fantastici!! Organizzatori perfetti, simpatici e competenti. Consigliamo il giro in bici per conoscere luoghi magici .VerifiedMapi13 August 2022Such a perfect day We spent a wonderful day in Zagoi area, riding from a village to another village, trekking and swimming in a beautiful waterfall. We enjoyed everything: the delicious picnic, the ride under the rain and under the sun, the walk the fall, the visit of the open air museum. Lefteris and Chara are so good in organizing the trips, explaining things and telling the stories and they have a good heart. You can’t loose an experience like this. ❤️Verifiedi love to ski27 July 2022Highlight of our trip to Epirus Who says that Greece is just beaches and archeological sites? Booked a trip with Lefteris and Hara via their site and must say from the beginning they went out of their way to put together the best excursion for us. They were helpful, accommodating, sensitive to our needs and extremely thoughtful. Excellent communication in planning our trip was the key. They both met us at the beginning of the tour , went through the plan of the day and were open to questions. We had a wonderful time biking with Lefteris for a bit less than 40 km with the help of the e bikes provided Had coffee and lemonade in Papigo and ended the tour with an excellent lunch on the next to river.( the pictures is of our hosts) Top notch, we couldn’t have expected better Highly recommended and a must !VerifiedLena D16 July 2022Amazing experience We booked the ride from Kaoesovo village to the waterfalls near Iliohori waterfalls.
