Mary_L, Jun 2026

Amazing landscape not to be missed!

Trip to Meteora was amazing. The rock formations along with monasteries built atop is so unique and stunning. Very much worth the 14 hour investment of time and a good value. Maria along with our driver were fantastic. Maria is a local with amazing knowledge, personality and language skills. Her informative history and knowledge could not have been better. Our driver navigated the twists and turns with ease. The moussaka, Greek salad and spinach pie was top notch. The first and last rest stop had excellent food as well. Tour exceeded expectations.

Mycenae, Epidaurus, Nafplio Full Day Private Tour from Athens

Jorge_F, Jun 2026

Worthwhile doing it. We...

Worthwhile doing it even though it may seem like a long day. We had an excellent driver who was very knowledgeable and willing to share his knowledge. Every site we visited was very nice and we had received the necessary information to fully appreciate the experience. The included lunch was great, ample menu for food and drinks. Friendly service and great food. Highly recommended.

Rosemary_S, May 2026

Great day seeing a lot of amazing historical sites

We had a wonderful day exploring with our very knowledgeable and kind guide. We saw everything we wanted and more! For older travelers, I would not do this tour the day after you go to the Athens Acropolis, since they both involve quite a bit of uphill walking. Our guide tailored our tour based on our needs. He was extremely flexible.

From Rhodes: Easy Morning Transfer to Lindos & 4 Hours Free Time

Jolene_K, May 2026

Fantastic trip to Lindos

Nicos the driver was wonderful. 4 hours free time in Lindos is time well spent. Wear your swim outfit and go to one of the beaches into the Aegean sea. The beaches are rocky so wearing aqua shoes may make the experience more pleasant. Afterwards, wander through the streets of Lindos and take in the sights and sounds. The main square is very busy with the taxis and buses. Sunscreen and a hat are a must. The views are astounding from every angle and you can get breathtaking pictures.

Delphi Guided Small Group Day Tour from Athens

Paula_B, May 2026

Delphi full day trip

Lily and Friday were amazing guides. Our trip to Delphi was so much richer thanks to Friday taking us through the museum first. Lily filled us in on so much history and mythology during the 2+ hour ride to Delphi. So glad we chose Delphi over the other full day trips as the antiquities found in Delphi were incredible. Had the best meal of many good meals at the Taverna we ate at in New Delphi (Bouka maybe).

Full-Day Trip to Meteora from Thessaloniki

Randip_S, May 2026

Excellent !

It was wonderful ! Helene is the best guide I have ever had on a tour, trip was very well managed. Her deep knowledge about history of sites/locations on the way was very well appreciated by everyone. Not only that Helene also gave expert advice on future locations to visit in and around Thessaloniki.

Full Day Boat Cruise to 3 Islands with optional pickup

Michael_K, May 2026

The highlight of our holiday

This is an absolute must do whilst visiting Kos Great experience. Great value for money and lovely entertaining crew. You get a choice of meals which you eat at a picturesque taverna at the first island- and the food is good!. It’s a chance to see some unspoilt islands you wouldn’t otherwise see. Would highly recommend .

Naxos Highlights Bus Tour with Free Time for Lunch at Apeiranthos

Nicole_B, May 2026

Naxos in a day- group tour

A great way to get familiar with the island and view all the must-see sites. The trip through the mountains provided amazing views of the entire island, and our driver did a wonderful job navigating the small streets. The towns visited along the way were stunning, and the pottery destination was a highlight from our tour (we bought so much to bring home with us!) While it was a large group tour, it felt very personal because we were able to venture out on our own at each location.

MarieTherese_J, Apr 2026

Outstanding site and magnificent scenery

Amazing scenery, a must see. Very knowledgeable guide -Katherine. I learnt a lot about deciphering the era of artefacts we looked at and really enjoyed her commentary. A good sized stop in Arechova was also delightful. Bus was in great condition and a pleasure to travel in thanks to the driver.

Amazing Experience

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.

Athens & Acropolis Highlights - Archaeologist Led Private Tour

Amy_T, Jul 2025

Petros was the absolute...

Petros was the absolute best guide. My husband is an architect and Athens has been his dream trip. We celebrated our 25th anniversary and Petros was able to somehow squeeze everything into one day without us feeling rushed. He recommended the best lunch for us and it ended up being our favorite meal of the entire trip. We can’t wait to come back again someday and we will definitely be back asking for Petros to guide us around.
