Since we opened our doors in 2007 we have worked hard to provide our customers with authentic experiences on Chios, experiences that explore the island’s culture and nature in the most imaginative and creative ways possible.According to others, we’ve accomplished this goal: Lonely Planet’s guide to Greece lists Masticulture among the top 10 green choices for responsible vacations in Greece.And the Chios Chamber of Commerce awarded us with a special prize for innovation and for our efforts to promote sustainable tourism on the island.Apart from our popular mastic harvest tour, we also offer hiking, scuba diving, sailing yacht trips, cycling, cooking classes and other special tours like star gazing !All activities are organized and hosted by us or by our carefully selected partners—people who share our ethical and business high standards as well as the goal that you experience the best Chios has to offer. « less
