From one-day hikes, canyoning, rafting, and sea kayaking to multi-day bike tours, jeep safaris, trekking expeditions, and scuba diving adventures—there’s something for every outdoor enthusiast. Aegean Outdoors alone offers trips on foot, kayak, canoe, raft, bicycle, 4×4, ferry, sailing boat, or yacht.
Definitely—many nature and adventure activities in Greece cater well to families and first-time participants. For example, guided canyoning trips in places like Rogovos Canyon (Papingo) are described as “a fun and easy introduction to the sport … suitable for everyone,” including children with basic physical ability. Similarly, family-friendly canyoning adventures in other regions (e.g., Peloponnese) feature certified guides, smaller group sizes, and safety gear, making them accessible to most families and skill levels.
Advice varies by activity, but gear lists typically include comfortable outdoor clothing, sturdy footwear, sun protection, swimwear, and water. Waterproof bags and helmets are often suggested for canyoning and rafting.
Canyoning is popular in Gorges such as Kleftis (Crete), Tsagkaraki (Evia), Orlias (Mount Olympus), and Tzoumerka. Spring and autumn are optimal seasons due to water flow and mild temperatures.
Sea kayaking tours run across islands and peninsulas, while white-water rafting is offered in national parks like Vikos–Aoös. These are led by certified local guides.
Difficulty ratings are always provided. Tours accommodate varied fitness levels, from easy family hikes to moderate canyoning adventures. Official guides and training support ensure safety.
Ideal outdoor seasons are April–June and September–October. Shoulder seasons offer pleasant weather, lower crowds, and excellent conditions for hiking, canyoning, and sea sports.
