Top Greece Day Trips - page 2

We had a wonderful day, in spite of rain, visiting Mycenae, Epidaurus, and Napflio with Notis as our driver and guide. We made a stop at the Corinth Canal on the way to Mycenae. Notis was very friendly and accommodating. He shared so much information about Greece - the area and sites we saw, the local history, culture, and daily life in the area we were visiting, as well as Greece, in general. He allowed us adequate time to visit the ruins at both Mycenae and Epidaurus, which were amazing, and thankfully the rain stopped for these explorations. We finished the day at a lovely restaurant in Napflio, enjoyed a wonderful lunch of pasta and langostinos, and shared an exceptional Greek wine. We were transiting from one hotel to another at the end of our trip. Notis picked us up promptly at one hotel in the morning, and delivered us safe and sound to our airport hotel in the evening. We couldn't have asked for a better guide and driver. The day was one of the highlights of our trip to Greece.

Wonderful experience. Delphi was even nicer than expected. The surrounding mountains were beautiful. And the town of Arachova was enchanting. Marianna our tour guide was very knowledgeable and informative. Tour was well organized, bus new and very clean. Driver excellent. Learned so much about the Greek origin of our English vocabulary. Extremely interesting. Give it 5+ stars.

We had one full day to see all the important sites in Athens and this was the way to go! Andreas was professional, interesting, educated, and we got a real sense of day to day life in Athens, not to mention a good historical perspective. He drove safely in a beautiful comfortable car, stopped for lunch at a place he spent his youth near, and was prompt and responsive to any other questions or times we wanted to stop for a viewpoint. I misunderstood the quality and dollar amount "stipend" that lunch included, I would have tried more things on the menu. Also it appeared that this was a place that a bus tour could and did stop, and we would have appreciated and paid for something more private and upscale. Nevertheless, it was a great sunny day and wonderful way to see Athens. Good communication before the excursion also, which always helps. Would recommend!

This was an exceptional experience. The guide/driver was incredibly knowledgeable, and organized in the way that he conveyed the information. The van was new and clean. The management of the company was very responsive, and we had clear and proactive communications with them at all times. We enjoyed this experience so much, that we booked another tour for a different day, and had an amazing experience on that one as well. We would highly recommend this tour, and the tour operator in general.

We had a wonderful experience with our knowledgeable tour guide, George. He provided interesting historical background throughout the tour and was easy to engage with. The trip was comfortable and just the right length. I would recommend including lunch with the package. We stopped at a delightful restaurant on the water and the food was delicious.

Excellent day trip, the thermal baths were really enjoyable and the waterfall was so beautiful! The place we stopped for lunch had a few different restaurants to choose from, we ate at the guides recommendation where we got to try some local dishes and it was absolutely delicious. One thing to know is the cost for the thermal baths start at €3 for one, but there are 3 small pools and one larger one that costs €5, so if you want to swim in them all you will end up paying a bit more. I would highly recommend this trip if you are spending a few days in Thessaloniki and want a chance to see the surrounding area outside of the city, it’s a fantastic way to spend the day!

Have never experienced such gorgeous landscapes ever. The tour was excellent, right from the pick up by bus, to the cruise, the music, Maria making the announcements on board, to the captain taking us so close to the blue caves, swimming at Anti Paxos and lunch at paxos. Excellent day spent with so much to explore.

It is worth going. Sissy Giannakaki was my tour guide and she was fantastic. She was so full of positive energy. She had great info that she shared about history, mythology, and the geography of the area. I really enjoyed her personality. A great tour guide can really make the difference and I LOVED this tour. I highly recommend her and this day trip in general. I loved every part of it, the nature hike, the archaeological park, the traditional town had great little neighborhoods on the hills. I had such a great time. Also, try and check out the Temple of Isis at Dion. It's easily my favorite part of the park.
