We had a great time with Dimitris. He picked us up from our campground and took us to these private and picturesque cliffs on the shore. He’s a great instructor, very positive and encouraging. I am a beginner and he had me quickly going up the easier routes. My daughter is more experienced and he was able to have her go up routes that challenged her. Fun for both of us.

Dimitris is a very knowledgeable and welcoming guide. He was flexible with his schedule and made special accommodations for me given that I was traveling by bicycle. A very hospitable fellow.
