Born and raised in Chania, I am a certified IFMGA Guide with global experience from the Himalayas to the Alps. I created this tour to share the "secret path" I use to escape the city noise. Unlike standard tours, I hike every step with you, sharing my deep knowledge of these mountains to ensure a safe, world-class trekking experience.
