What people love about Greece Tours in January
- Charming Greece Tour - 7 days
We booked a 7 day tour, it wasn’t really. Day 1 arrive late, straight to hotel, next day terribly led tour of the acropolis in far too many languages. Day 3 4 day charming Greece tour begins, day 6 dropped off at hotel. The 4 day tour was excellent. All very good
- Vacations in Greece - 9 Days - Athens, Paros, Naxos, Santorini
The tour was very well organized, transfers were always on time. The sunset in Oia, Santorini and the churches is in Paros island where memories that will be hardly get erased from my mind.
- Absolutely Greek
Eskapas customer service exceeded our expectations. Our intended small group tour (Absolute Greek) unfortunately did not materialize because of the Greek National Holiday and we were told that their local partners were not operational around those days. Eskapas re arranged our itinerary so we could still enjoy most of what we wanted to do and see. We ended up joining bigger groups in shorter trips and missing out on Olympia. Regardless of the mishap we still had an amazing time. We recommend Eskapas for their excellent customer service: quick, easy, and reliable communication. Thank you!

The Greek Islands offer a different but authentic experience in January. While services are reduced islands like Santorini and Corfu remain accessible.
