Having been to more than forty countries with his backpack, travelling is a way of life for him and although he studied to be an engineer, he decided that sharing his passion with others is much more vital, because interacting with people has always been an inspiration. He loves the outdoors, especially rock climbing and hiking and when he is not guiding he is probably off somewhere on his bike.
He worked as a guide for 10 years, leading trips for the largest companies of the world such as National Geographic and Mt Sobek, received the prestigious REI Top Guide Award for 2013 and actively designed adventure trips throughout Greece. Establishing his own adventure travel company was simply the next step, because showing people, Greece off the beaten track, is his dream job...
Anna Zika, guiding since 2012, draws inspiration from her deep roots in the Scouts Movement. Initially she studied Interior Design, but she realized her creativity thrived outside traditional office settings. Leading tours across Greece and Europe, Anna fulfilled her dreams of exploring the Grand Canyon and encountering gorillas, while also earning the esteemed 2015 REI Adventures Top Guide Award. Hailing from Athens, she delights in fine food, wine, and immersing herself in Greek culture, including history, art, architecture, and traditional dances. Fueled by her passion for travel, Anna's greatest happiness lies in unveiling her homeland's hidden treasures to visitors.
Nefeli Papageorgiou was born and raised in Athens, Greece, where her journey of exploration began. From an early age, she developed a deep love for travel, driven by a desire to immerse herself in new cultures, learn about their traditions, and hear the stories passed down through generations.
Her passion for history and culture naturally led her to study Anthropology, giving her a broad perspective on the world's diverse communities. Since 2014, Nefeli has been dedicated to working in the outdoors, where she combines her love for nature with her role as a hiking guide and outdoor learning teacher. She thrives on sharing her knowledge and experiences, whether guiding guests through Greece's stunning landscapes or introducing them to the rich cultural heritage of the region.
In her personal time, Nefeli enjoys hiking, yoga, and dancing, activities that keep her connected to both nature and her creative spirit. She is excited to continue sharing her passion for travel and looks forward to creating unforgettable memories with those who join her on this journey.
Stefanos feels like contact with nature is where his true self lies in. But life had different plans for him, and he ended up being a university professor teaching statistics and developmental psychology in different universities across Europe and in international conferences worldwide. Although he might have partly betrayed his “true self” (whatever that means), he still keeps that fire alive and jumps into nature in every chance. His preferred habitat is forested trails and rocky peaks, and anything that results in broad views and conveys a wanderlust sense. He mostly acts as a herbivore. When in the academic cage (too often), he deceives himself with (trail) running. Guiding people in nature combines his teaching affinity with sharing his passion for nature.
