    That was an awesome experience. Friendly and professional tour guide created great atmosphere. At that trip in the group there were only my friend and me, so it almost felt like a trip with a couple of friends. The hiking route is not particularly hard, but creates enough fun challenge. And the nature is just beautiful, a lot of opportunities for a good photo. Dion is a very charming place, the archeological park provides a lot of space for contemplating the past looking at the ruins.
