What to expect

Parga lies in Greece's Epirus region, an area that really packs a punch in the beauty stakes. This trip will take you into the heart of the province to give you a glimpse of its spectacular scenery. You'll discover Ioannina, Vikos Gorge, mountain streams and rustic villages.

You'll start at the Epirot capital, Ioannina. Set on a lake, it's got a Turkish look and feel due to its Ottoman past and we'll take a short stroll around. Ali Pasha Mosque is here, too, and your guide will tell you all about it during your visit. Next, it's a trip to the village of Monodentri. You've got two hours to explore this place on your own, but your guide will kick things off with a walk to the bite-sized St. Paraskevi Monastery – you're welcome to join them.

When you're done looking around the souvenir shops and have treated yourself to some lunch, you'll head to the Oxia Viewpoint for epic views of Vikos Gorge. The last landmarks you'll visit are a pair of really scenic bridges, Kokkori Bridge and Kalogeriko Bridge. From here, you'll start the return journey back to your accommodation.

    What a fabulous full day trip. Very professional and friendly guide Natasha. Beautiful scenery. Very well organised time wise. Every aspect of the trip was very well thought out. The coach driver was very good too. Natasha and Nikos worked very well together to deliver a great trip for us all.

    Beautiful area. Our guide was very informative about the places we visited. Our driver was amazing, and we felt very safe on the mountain roads some of which were very steep. A long day but well worth it as the scenery was beautiful throughout.

    We loved the dramatic scenery. The tour of old Ioannina was interesting. You have to pay 1 Euro to look in the old mosque which is well worth it. The Vikos Gorge is very spectacular, but a difficult walk on rough cobbles for those with reduced mobility. Lunch was at a nice restaurant where you order and pay for your own food. The Stone Forrest was interesting, but we didn’t stop, the old packhorse bridges were great. A long drive, but worth it if you want to see something different.

Paxos and Antipaxos Captain Hook Boat Cruise Ticket

The islands of Paxos and Antipaxos may be small but their beauty is big and bold. You'll sail over from Parga to get to know these Ionian gems on this full day cruise.

It's the smaller of the two islands – it has just 120 residents – and its long stretches of white sand and Caribbean feel make it feel like it's one in a dozen. After some relaxing on deck and swimming, we'll hit the seas once more along the west coast, famous for the Blue Caves.Grab the chance to swim inside one of these atmospheric sea grottoes before heading to Gaios, the capital Paxos. With its Venetian-style mansions facing the islet of St Nicholas, it's a charmer. You'll have free time to roam around its narrow lanes or have lunch overlooking the boats before returning to Parga.
