"...To reach the summit take this track, and follow it back round the side of
 the mountain as it climbs high above Petri and the plain of Petra..." (Walk 16)

  "Your walks have given us much pleasure - we love walking and love Molivos"
  JS, Sussex, 2003

"...After fifteen minutes the track arrives at a
 whitewashed stone circle on the left housing
 an open-air chapel. Behind it is a new chapel....
At about 460m (1500ft) this is the highest point
 of the walk; from here it is downhill all the way
 to Stipsi..... behind the chapel is a walnut tree where
 you can celebrate with a drink in the shade."(Walk 11)

"After 2 -3 days without exercise I was becoming extremely irritable...My wife discovered
 your book, and prescribed 'let's try some walking.'
Great stuff!! - we completed several of the routes you described; most enjoyable -
 our marriage was back in business!."  JB, Lancashire, 2002

"The cliff path climbs between walls, passes through
 a gate, and continues along a short steep rocky stretch.
  It levels out and then begins to descend round the head
 of a tiny cove with an isolated chapel built above
 the beach.  After about fifteen minutes drop down
 to the beach" (Walk 25)

 "...the best guide I have read to this area of the island. Written by someone
 who loves the place as much as I do and the directions are clear
 and the walks well-timed. Maunder also has an easy style of writing
 and it is very straight forward." SM, Cheshire, 2002
