I have just booked to go to Sivota with Olympic on Sept 4th. I have been to many of the Greek islands but this will be the first time here. I am travelling alone and plan to hire a moped for a few days to zip around to Parga and Lefkas end explore the coves and get off the beaten track a bit.

I also plan to go to Meteora (I think it takes a couple of days)

Has anyone been on this trip, and any advice on what to wear etc?
Will I need proper walking boots and how hot/cold does it get?
Do you recommend a travel company rather than booking thru the rep?

Where can I hire a moped (I hear it is very quiet so will I have to hire in Parga)
Any places a MUST to visit?
Finally, has anyone been to the Mourtemeno Hotel/Apts?

Thanks
