Camping, taken to another level.
We take care of all the things you would normally have to, so you can enjoy the experience and be immersed in nature. Samos nature is ideal for camping from safety to locations available. However, you have to know a few things.
We pick the location depending on the weather, we set everything up (tend & hammock, inflatable mattress). We can organize some food if you require as fires are not allowed. You are left alone to experience and in the morning or next day we meet for the return.
We make sure we look after our island, so we expect the same. You will be expected to leave zero garbage or waste.
