Escape the bustling city of Athens on a full-day jeep tour to Evia, immersing yourself in panoramic mountains, chestnut forests and charming villages!

This full-day trip departs from Athens, the vibrant capital city of Greece. You'll travel to Evia (also known as Euboea), the second-largest island in Greece. The island is separated from the Greek mainland by the Euripus Strait, and is easily reachable by car on the Euripus Bridge. On this private jeep tour in Evia, you'll travel to the Dirfys Mountains and surrounding areas.

Your adventure begins with pick-up from your accommodation in Athens (please specify your location when booking). This private excursion is for groups of up to 6 participants, ensuring a personalised and attentive experience from the local guide. The experienced guide will pick you up in the premium 7-seated vehicle for your jeep tour from Athens to Evia! You'll travel for approximately 1 hour to Chalkida, the capital of Evia. The city is famous for its unique tidal phenomenon, where the water changes direction every six hours due to geological forces.

Upon arrival in Chalkida, you'll stop for a quick break and capture some photos. Chalkida offers a mix of history, seaside charm, and vibrant local culture. Then, the journey continues to Stropones, a picturesque mountain village in central Euboea, nestled in the lush Dirfys Mountains. You'll stop to enjoy the fresh mountain air and chestnut forests, before continuing the drive to the sacred site of Panagia Aboudiotisa, a historic Byzantine monastery.

Afterwards, the jeep tour in Evia takes you to Kambia, a quaint village surrounded by dense forests and natural springs. You'll explore this small village and visit the serene Saint Kyriaki Chapel, a remote stone-built church. Then, you'll drive to Steni, one of the most popular mountain villages in Evia. It sits at the base of Mount Dirfys, the highest peak in Evia. You have the option of stopping at a local tavern for a delicious Greek lunch. This village is an ideal spot to relax, with a cool climate, fresh springs, and beautiful mountain scenery. After lunch, you'll embark on the return drive to your accommodation in Athens.

Experience stunning mountain landscapes, ancient chapels, and traditional villages on this private jeep tour to the Dirfys Mountains of Evia from Athens!
