  A good tour that could have been made better through the omission of stops at tourist-trappy souvenir shops and overpriced restaurants. Very informational, but don't expect to have much time to wander around the sites at your leisure.

  Positive Aspects: 1. The guide was exceptionally friendly, showcasing an extensive knowledge of both the historical sites visited and Greece as a whole. This added a significant and positive dimension to the entire experience. 2. The overall organization of the trip was very good. Participants could fully immerse themselves in the attractions without worrying about logistical details. 3. The chosen destinations were stunning, and the advantage of visiting them in December was the notable lack of crowds, allowing for a more intimate exploration. 4. Hotels and meals were good as well. Negative Points: 1. Due to the considerable distance between attractions, anticipate spending approximately 3 hours each day on travel. 2. The magnificence of Meteora suggests that allocating more than a day to fully appreciate its beauty would be worthwhile. In summary, despite the challenge of the long distances between attractions, the trip offers a unique and enriching experience, providing a perspective of Greece that goes beyond the typical visit to Athens.

  It was all wonderful, from accomodation to the meals. The tour guide and the driver, were excellent, the ancient sites, well no photos can do it justice, you must walk them to appreciate them. ❤️ I would recommend this tour.

  A great tour however the experience was compromised by (1) having to accommodate 2 language groups when promotional material specified English only (2) Group size was specified as maximum 35 guests yet was up to 43 (3) coach quite cramped. Guide was very good, so incredibly knowledgeable, as was the driver. A very intense look at ancient Greece- a lot was included in the 4 days which was excellent. (probably done with historic sites for some time now)

  We found the itinerary of this tour excellent. The knowledge and commentary by the tour guide was second-to-none and really illuminated the travel and provided much needed historical context and insight to the classical locations. Unfortunately a big downside was the interminable stops at cafés for overlong breaks and the poor quality of tourist trap 'mandatory' restaurants -- we would have preferred a choice, or just space and more time to wander around historical sites instead of a boring, mediocre lunch stop. As a flip side to this 2 out of the 3 evening and breakfast buffets provided by the tour were very good (Olympia, Delphi). Overall top ranking for the guide & itinerary. Very poor for the lunches/rest stops. Coach was comfortable and everything seemed professionally run.

  It was amazing, thorough and easy going. Hotels I stayed at (Amalia, Hermes, Orfeas) were good. Guide (Rose) was excellent and amazing knowledge. However, very unfortunate she was unwell and we had to shift tourgroups etc.

  I loved the trip but will share a incident after the trip. “DO NOT BUY ANYTHING” you don’t want taken at the airport. We were told that Greek honey is worth the amount of gold. Well I bought a very small jar of Greek honey and a small jar of Olympic stadium olive oil from the shops we went to and sure enough the Greek border agents stole the Honey and Olive oil saying they aren’t allowed on the plane, then not more than 50 feet past the checkpoint is the same honey and olive oil in larger jars being sold for 50% more than you payed for it. Soooooooo don’t spend your money at the shops at these really nice places. Until the shop owners start telling you not to waste your hard earned money they should not get any of it from you till the ordinance(not law) is lifted. The shop owners need to petition the border patrol to be accountable for stealing Honey an olive oil. I was sooooooo looking forward to put a smile on my mommas face with the small jars and now all I can do is tell her how nice her gifts were. Sorry shop owners, but you need to tell your tourist customers to NOT!!! Spend money on nice gifts that will get stolen at the border. I guess they wanted honey and oil I’ve oil for their family.
