...the values of responsible and eco friendly tourism...

 

hydrOrizons is a network of 34 tourism-related businesses in the northwest part of Greece (Epirus, Parga, Corfu and Lefkas) with the sole task to make “off the beaten” Greece easily available to travel agents and tour operators around Europe and individual clients.

 

hydrOrizons members range from hotels, guest houses, mountaineering shelters, and a spa through to restaurants, local food producers, tourist agencies and outdoor activity specialists, as well as the Environmental Educational Park “Bourazani”, “Bourazani” Museum of Natural History and the “Rodia Wetlands”. hydrOrizons has been active since 2006 and fully subscribes to the values of responsible and eco friendly tourism. Its activities are having a continuous positive impact on local economic and social life as well as protecting and caring for the environment.

 

Visitors can reach the areas where hydrOrizons members operate by land or by air via the airports of Ioannina, Preveza and Corfu which receive regular charter flights from around Europe, from April to October, as well as domestic connecting flights from the airports of Athens and Thessaloniki every day, all year round.
