Julie_D, June 2026

A wonderful day around Naxos

We had a wonderful day with our guide Thanos and driver Vasilis. Thanos was so knowledgeable about Naxos and keen to tell us all about the history of Naxos. The visit to the olive press and pottery works was both enjoyable and very interesting. Thanks to Vasilis for his expert driving up such narrow roads.

Full Day 3-Island Boat Cruise from Port of Kos

Lesley_L, June 2026

Well worth the money

Well worth the price of the ticket. The boat was full but not packed in as I have read on other reviews. We stopped to see the dolphins and plenty of swimming time. The only issue we had was finding shade on the boat, we recommend factor 50 to stop being burnt as you spend quite a bit of time on the boat.

AymanJeri_E, June 2026

You must do this tour!

My wife and I were extremely pleased with our tour experience. Our driver Nikos communicated very well prior to the pickup date and was prompt to pick us up. He was very flexible with the tour schedule and followed a specific sequence in order to build the experience as we went along. Nikos went above and beyond to make our tour a very memorable one.

michelleplesko, June 2026

Amazing tour!!!!!

AMAZING tour! Our guides, Forrest and Flow, were amazing and brought us to so many spots. We were lucky and got a calm day which allowed us to swim in more caves. The food on board was also great! Great Greek dishes! This tour was amazing and I would recommend it to anyone.

Santorini-small group tour

Communication prior and on the day of with Katerina was the best. She was able to accommodate our necessary changes. I did not have to worry about getting back to my tender on time to catch my cruise ship. Mary, our guide, was amazing. We saw more than what he had planned for. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone. Thank you Mary for making this trip memorable.

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.

Full-Day Trip to Meteora from Thessaloniki

Esen_K, May 2026

Great daytrip

Great way to see Meteora. Note that it is a long drive (about 3.5 hours one way), but the midi buses are new, air conditioned, the roads are almost all highways, and there are breaks every 2 hours or so, so it isn't too tiring. Starts around 8 am and ends around 6pm. Meteora itself is stunning, and definitely worth a trip.

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

Joe_T, May 2026

Beautiful place!

Highly recommend it!! Long drive but once you get there it’s beautiful. Our guide Maria was very nice and explained many details of Greek mythology. Inside the park our guide Friday was also very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of information. Then they took us to a nice restaurant with views of the mountains and the sea.

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 .

Full-Day Boat Tour of Paxos Antipaxos Blue Caves from Corfu

Daniil_I, Sept 2025

Fun time if you know what to expect

The tour was fun and engaging, although it is long trip from Corfu town with a lot of down time where you are left to yourself and the views. Enough time to swim and eat in Paxos and Antipaxos. Sadly no complimentary food or drinks on board, you have to pay for everything, though the prices aren't too high. The ship wasn't too crowded at the start of September, as everyone was seated. Music on the way back was funny and entertaining to listen to, but quite loud on the top floor.

Athens & Acropolis Highlights - Archaeologist Led Private Tour

Amy_T, July 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.
