Get Active Lefkas

GREAT FUN AND FANTASTIC GUIDES! -- My wife and I were in Lefkas for 2 weeks and wanted to explore more of the natural beauty of the island than just the amazing coastline so we booked two excursions through Get Active. One was a led hike and the other was an intermediate mountain bike ride. Both were fantastic and very enjoyable. The hike took us up into the foothills behind Nydri and was a great way to see some local nature. Simon, our guide, was so nice and really informative about the island, local life and culture. He gave us excellent recommendations for were to eat in some local, less 'touristy' areas up in the hills and we loved all of them. The hike was not too challenging but also wan't just a stroll in the park! A good balance for a holiday excursion unless you are looking for a full days hardcore hiking (although, I'm sure this could be arranged too). The mountain biking was also really good fun. The group on the intermediate ride was of quite a mixed ability the guides quickly evaluated this and split us into two smaller groups - one of slightly more competent mtb'ers and one of slightly less confident riders. They then took us on two different routes that were perfectly suited to our abilities, making sure the ride was enjoyable for all. I can't recommend Get Active enough if you are looking for something different to do on Lefkas. They are all great guides, super friendly and very helpful. They also hire out road bikes and are very helpful with advice about road cycling routes, and they will organise bespoke mtb rides or even training camps if you are looking for something challenging - and the trails on the island are just perfect for some seriously challenging riding - as are the paved roads in the mountains if you are looking to get some training miles in while on holiday.
