What are people saying about Greece

Touring At its Best
Our driver (Andreas) was cordial yet professional--and a skilled driver (which is a huge compliment for Greece, where drivers are insane). We look a whole day tour, but wanted considerable flexibility in our itinerary (some sites were more important to us than others), and we needed to be back to our cruise ship at a certain time. Andreas was entirely accommodating, and very creative in his improvisations. We should also mention that the restaurant included in the package was excellent--not a tourist trap, but a real authentic Greek "neighborhood" sort of place. Although Andreas was, officially, "just" a driver, he was quite knowledgeable & articulate; I don't know if a licensed guide would have been much better. We learned a great deal about Greece during our day-long tour. Skip the huge crowds on economical tours, and hire a driver!

Fabulous guide! Very...
Fabulous guide! Very knowledgeable - different guide for the actually time at Delphi & the Museum. The guide took us to a family run restaurant for lunch - at our additional expense - but in the village of New Delphi so authentic cuisine. Delicious! It is a bit of a drive especially getting out of Athens collecting up all the passengers (about 16 of us) & then also for dropping folks off at then at several hotels. But we'll worth the time.

Wonderful Apostle Paul Experience
This tour exceeded our expectations and gave us a rich, meaningful understanding of Paul’s time in Athens and Corinth. The stories and context brought his journeys to life in a way that was both engaging and insightful.
Aris is truly an outstanding guide—his passion, depth of knowledge, and enthusiasm made all the difference. While the tour is listed as six hours, it’s well worth setting aside extra time. Aris was incredibly accommodating, even adding a few additional stops we requested, which made the experience even more special.
Thank you, Aris, for an unforgettable tour and for making our visit to Athens so memorable.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Breathtaking - A Must-Do from Athens!
What an amazing and special place! The Meteora Monasteries completely exceeded our expectations. Seeing these ancient monasteries perched impossibly on top of towering rock formations was truly awe-inspiring - photos don't do it justice.
Our tour guide Clement did a wonderful job from start to finish. His knowledge of the monasteries' history, the monks who built them, and the spiritual significance of Meteora brought the entire experience to life. Clement's passion for this UNESCO World Heritage site was evident, and he made sure we had plenty of time to explore, take photos, and soak in the incredible views.
The day trip from Athens was perfectly organized - comfortable transportation, well-paced schedule, and a delicious authentic Greek lunch included. We visited multiple monasteries and caves, each more spectacular than the last. Standing inside these centuries-old structures while looking out over the breathtaking landscape was a spiritual experience regardless of your faith.
Clement's storytelling made the long history of these monasteries fascinating, and his timing ensured we avoided crowds and captured the best light for photos. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared that we had an unforgettable experience.
This was hands-down one of the highlights of our entire Greece trip. If you're in Athens, don't miss Meteora - it's worth every minute of the journey. And if you can, request Clement as your guide!
Highly, highly recommended! 🏛️

Must do in Naxos
This was a wonderful tour and you get to see so much of Naxos. The ride was so pretty up and around all the mountains. The stops were all interesting and you had enough time to do what you wanted. It was a great value for the money. Our tour guide, Vasilis, was so well informative. Our bus driver Aggrliki did a super job on the tiny village roads and in the winding mountain roads. We felt very safe

Tour Guide was good!
Our ship arrived late. But Greco tours accommodated us. The start was challenging but the tour guide made it all up! She was so nice… accommodating and always smiling. She was knowledgeable and her tips on making the walking tour were very helpful! This is definitely worth the price! Get it!

Wonderful day in Athens
Wear good walking shoes. It is a strenuous climb to the acropolis and my husband and I only made it halfway while our adult kids went all the way up. This tour lets you move at your own pace but there is a lot to see. Michael our driver was great and gave us an amazing overview of Athens. He took us to a wonderful restaurant for lunch where we enjoyed authentic Greek dishes. There were 7 in our group and we all enjoyed this tour. We can't say enough about what a great guide Michael was. It was so much fun!

Great Experience!
The experience to Meteora was nothing short of spectacular. Elena was our tour guide and she was spectacular. She was also incredibly knowledgeable about everything from Thessaloniki and Meteora to the stops in-between. She had answers about everything! I would definitely recommend this scenic and thrilling excursion.

Wonderful Day Trip with George
George, our driver was a wonderful, kind, sweet and very knowledgeable driver and guide. We had conversations about Greece’s history and gave us a summary of each place we would be visiting on our tour. He allowed us plenty time at each sight to walk around and take it all in while he patiently waited for us.
If I knew in advance that George would have been our driver, I would have hired him to take me everywhere for my first experience in Greece.
Ryan and I are so very grateful to him and thank him for all the suggestions for any future trips back to Greece.

Great way to see Athens and Sounion in a day
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!

Ideal way to experience Sounion
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.

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.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Regardless of where you travel, adding a few day trips to your itinerary allows you to see more destinations without constantly moving from hotel to hotel. Greece is no exception. Here, organized day trips are an especially good idea as many places aren’t easy to reach via public transit—from Athens, for example, you can explore an ancient site like Delphi or set sail with a day trip to the islands. Greece day trips are also a great way to familiarize yourself with a city upon arrival. Spending a day in Athens or Santorini in the company of a local expert, for instance, sets you up beautifully for independent exploration later.
