Great beginner experience with Tasos, an excellent teacher. He adapts the speed of the lesson to the rate of your progress, and as a bonus even brings along Zen, the emotional support dog, for added encouragement!

An absolute 10/10 experience with Tasos and KiteMonkey! My friend and I came all the way from Belgium as total beginners with the goal of becoming independent, and Tasos made it happen. His coaching is clear, patient, and ultra safety-focused, while always keeping the vibe super fun and encouraging. Top-notch gear, great communication from start to finish, and very fair prices especially for students like us. If you want to learn kitesurfing near Athens, look no further. Thanks a lot Tasos, we’ll be back for sure!

Tasos and Kitemonkey are teaching us how to kite - I learn it theoretically, Nikos practically. Tasos and his team provide a safe and exciting way to learn this art. Highly recommended!

Εξαιρετικός εκπαιδευτής! Ο Τάσος είναι πολύ επεξηγηματικός και καθοδηγεί με σαφήνεια και ασφάλεια τους μαθητές του. Ακόμα και εντελώς αρχάριοι θα αισθανθούν άνετα με το kitesurf από τα πρώτα κιόλας sessions. Συστήνεται ανεπιφύλακτα!!!
