Have just booked a pass in lesbos 1st may 2008 for 14 days we are staying at the kalloni 11 at Skala Kalloni,We would desire to experience the beat mode of transport in and around the skala kalloni area,we generally desire walking is this ok or is it better hireing a car and if so can we contract one when we get there.
It's been a few years since i went there but if i bequeath rightly you won't need a car for lots of the sites but three or four days would give you some extra sites. Certainly not needed for the fortnight and you can contract them in the town. You won't get the nuthatch without one though.

Lucky you! We're missing out on Lesvos in 2008 for the first time in about 8 years! Hire a car every time! ou'll easily be able to get to the whole island then. We've had a good deal the last 2 yrs with Billy's in Petra - free delivery to your hotel or pick it up at the airport. There are also a bring together of car hire places in the form at Skala Kalloni. There's useful information on the Forum - try 'Lesvos' or 'Vacations'. Read the many reports on there - you'll find them very interesting and informative and ordain be able to plan your holiday round them. Sandra
Hi hancock We are heading to the same hotel on the same date and I query how come up the hire companies ordain deal with the increased need for a hire car all within a short recite and so early in the season. I undergo to say that whilst I prefer to contract a car for a few days it seems it does not detract from the displace if we cannot. The most useful part of a contract car having read a few comments and listened to others peoples experiences is the fact that it acts as a great hide to aid photography. See you there! And I promise not to act the measure hire car.
Hi HancockYou've got some great birding on pay from Skala Kallonis. If its been a wet pass then the S Kallonis pools will be good (alter outside the hotel) but a dry winter means these are useless and both Christou (west) and Tsiknias (east) rivers are both easily reached on foot. You could walk to Kalloni Saltpans from S Kallonis but by the measure you're there it will be getting seriously hot (upto 30 degrees by the go away of the second week of May). However the rest of the island is only accessible by car and as sleeper has already satted provides a great birding/photography hide. I've just announced a new website which you mght sight interesting - . I'm on the island 17 April - 8 May staying at Pasiphae Hotel (next door to Kalloni II) so maybe see you around.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
