“A truly wonderful way to spend a day. This was my second hike with Hiking Rhode. I highly recommend this walk if you like hiking, it is a fantastic way to see the island in a different way. The hike was thoroughly enjoyable taking in different terrains and points of interest including Limeri Cave and St John Church. You are rewarded with the most stunningly beautiful panoramic views from the top. Manuela was the perfect guide, professional, friendly and full of knowledge about the area, history, plants and nature.”

Review of Athens’ Mount Hymettus sunset hike, with forest paths, Byzantine ruins, city views, guide details, price, and practical tips.
“Our guide, Konstantinos, communicated with me a day ahead to confirm time and specific info for pick up. He was right on time. It was nice to take the short car ride and get out of the city for the evening. The hike was not difficult and Konstantinos stopped multiple times to point out different plants along the way and told us some history as well. He also took pictures of us at different locations which was very nice since we rarely get pictures with the whole family. The sunset was absolutely beautiful! The hike after the sunset to get back to the car was short and there was plenty…”
