Book a walking tour and get a little exercise on this beautiful island Yes, a walking tour! On your own two feet! Do it! Book with Maria and leave the donkey’s alone. It is so disturbing for tourists on this beautiful island who care about animal welfare to see these animals standing around at the port all day in the scorching sun and being used to drag ridiculous amounts of luggage, groceries, people and heavy building materials up the hills all day. Electric carts could do the job, or humans, rather than continuing this barbaric practice. I understand a dedication to no motorized vehicles- but at what cost?

Maria made the port of Idra come alive! She was charming, knowledgeable and very friendly. I would do it again! Maria showed us all the charming sites on the port efficiently and with extensive knowledge. We so enjoyed our walk with Maria.

An excellent tour of Hydra town by Maria, the nicest, brightest face on the island! Maria Voulgari obviously loves her home island and has a nice way of blending the island's history with myth and tales, and then making a smooth passage to the present day. Her vibrant personality and captivating stories made the 1h30' walk under the scorching sun an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

Amazing tours ! It was such a great experience with such amazing people. In particular Maria, who made us a very interesting tour of the town with clear and deep explainations about the history of the place. A big big big thank you ! I highly recommand it !!

This is an extraordinary activity you have to do in Hydra ! María is the best person I’ve ever met on a trip, she is just so nice and kind, the tour was fabulous we really enjoyed it. This is a MUST to do in Hydra ! Met María and do a tour with her you will remember it for long !

Fascinating and fun history tour Maria was the fantastic host on this fascinating history tour. Her passion for the island and her outstanding knowledge of the main characters, events and stories from Hydra are impressive. I was fortunate to be taking this tour on the 200th anniversary of the Greek War of Independence, in which Hydra played a pivotal role, which made the history come alive. We walked around the harbour and through the charming back streets and she explained much about the many famous (and infamous) sons and daughters of Hydra with interesting and funny stories. Her good humour and wonderful generous nature made the tour a lot of fun as well as extremely interesting. I am sure there is more to learn so I am tempted to take the tour again some day. Highly recommended. Ευχαριστώ πάρα πολύ!

Realmente increíble!!!! Es un pequeño pueblo mágico sobre el mar Egeo. Una absoluta joya para descubrir, pasear, ir al mar, comer delicioso!! Realmente vale la pena ir a conocerla

Hydra is a beautiful island; let Maria guide you. We were told Hydra was one of the best islands since it is charming and much to see in a walkable day. They were not wrong. Maria was great to start off our day and understand more about the island. Then she left us to wander the streets and soak in the ambience. She was very well informed, her English was fantastic, and we loved that she knew so many on the island greeting them as we walked the streets. Hope you love the island and her as much as we did.

A Charming must in Hydra! What a charming town - so neat to see how they operate their daily lives. Maria was wonderful and gave a very interesting / historic tour of a marvelous place.

Un walking tour à faire impérativement Une excellente idée pour commencer un séjour à Hydra et vous familiariser avec les lieux et l’histoire Une guide d’une extrême gentillesse amoureuse de son île qui vous fera ressentir l’âme de cette île Bref une superbe expérience
