“The purpose of life is to live it, to taste it, to experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.”

Fast & Light
Fast & Light project started from our love for hiking, nature and outdoor activities. Through our rich experience, we have come to know some of the most stunning destinations of Greece and we would like to share our experience with you.
We choose to plan excursions for individuals or small groups, in order to be able to provide you with personalized services. Your safety is our top priority. We want to be beside you the entire time, following your pace, to ensure that you will have an incredible experience that will remain in your memory. Through this procedure, our goal is to share with you our passion for the protection of the environment and gain another ally for this effort.
Poulopoulos Ioannis FAST & LIGHT Founder
“Getting in touch with the mountains is so much more than just a hobby for me, it’s a way of living. The Fast & Light project was born out of my need to spend more time in nature and my desire to share this passion with others.”
