We are walking specialists for the Mani peninsula, an undeveloped region of Europe where until 70 years ago travel was only possible by boat or donkey trails (kalderimi). The peninsula is divided and dominated by the mighty Taygetus mountains that plunge down to sea-level. It is a geographically protected area with rare species of plants, birds and animals. Its unique landscape offers you mountains and gorges, coastal walks and enchanting traditional villages. Its seclusion and history has led to a distinct culture of family clans; their tower-clustered villages are marked by Byzantine and Frankish history. Of course, the whole region is a birthplace of ancient Greek myth.

The Mani has around 300 days of sunshine a year, spring being warm with carpets of wild flowers with a second blush in autumn offering added interest to our spectacular walks. We offer hotel to hotel, luggage transferred accompanied walks incorporating highlights of the Outer and Deep Mani, two distinct yet spectacular and varied landscapes. If your friends/family make up a group, we can offer a more bespoke itinerary.

The walker can retain some independence; you can join us for an evening meal if you wish or make your own arrangements – we have many recommendations. We stay where possible at family run hotels, tavernas and rooms depending on location and availability. We encourage responsible tourism to minimise our footprint preserving this beautiful but fragile environment. There is much to see and do in the Mani should you wish to stay on after your week with us. Just relax enjoying the restaurants, cafes and bars, swim from the many beaches, cycle, go horse riding, do yoga or hire a car and tour the peninsula. Read more...
