Georgioupolis Safaris: An Alternative Way to Explore the Area

(Updated for 2024)

Georgioupolis safaris are fast becoming a favorite pastime for travelers and locals alike.

---

In their initial meaning, safaris often related to big game hunting in Africa, but now the term applies to all opportunities to explore off-the-beaten-path remote areas and places usually known only to the locals. Safaris come in all shapes and forms: Jeep Safari tours, quad and buggy safaris, hikes, cycling safaris, and much more. When you visit Georgioupolis, you have a range of companies providing professional services. You can always ask your concierge at one of our hotels – Mythos Palace Resort & Spa, Anemos Luxury Grand Resort, Pepper Sea Club Hotel, Ventale Island Breeze Resort and Eliros Mare – to facilitate a custom safari for you, choose a local company, or opt for self-guided safaris. The choice is yours.
