Naxos Highlights Bus Tour with Free Time for Lunch at Apeiranthos

Kristi_T, Aug 2026

Highly Recommend

It was a great way to see the island! We enjoyed the air-conditioned bus and not having to plan or drive ourselves. Our stops in the villages gave us plenty of time to explore on our own and the option to have lunch where we chose. We were a family of 5 adults with different preferences, and we all enjoyed this tour. The tour guide was informative and personable.

Meteora Monasteries Day Trip at 9AM, Caves, Seaside Stops & Lunch

Bronwyn_F, Aug 2026

Great Time

This was a great and informative experience where our tour guide (Clement) gave an entertaining explanation about the area and the monasteries themselves, with inclusions about the geology of the area. In addition to this, he helped when we did not have cash and enabled a stop at an ATM nearby so we could still enter the monasteries. Which also had free cover ups for those of us not covered appropriately due to the heat. While we did have to change over busses at one stage it was an understandable requirement due to travel and providing a comfortable environment for passengers.

Isabel_M, Aug 2026

Best way to get to Lindos

We loved this option to travel to Lindos. It was a very convenient way of getting there. Everything was excellent, from the pickup locations to choose from, driver gave great knowledge and tips, the map was excellent. We spent time at Pink Beach and loved it. Would definitely recommend as a way to get to and from Lindos!! Can’t imagine choosing a boat to get there over this.

Full Day Boat Cruise to 3 Islands with optional pickup

Nicola_W, Jul 2026

The guys were really nice...

The guys were really nice and bubbly and brought life to the boat when there was no music playing. Boat a little packed for my liking but obviously very popular and it was a busy period that I went. One of the nicest boats on the port. Wanted to snorkel at one stop by they didn't have any life jackets. The island stop offs were cool but maybe this company will consider doing a lunch on the boat like many other boat rides I've had across Europe, as the lunch stop off was not nice we were just hurdles like cattle and the food was dumped on the table which was bland and like a ready meal. Other than that the actual cruise was brilliant. The highlight was the captain, what a G! Blazed through choppy waters and was just so cool whatever the wave! Thanks guys, ahoy!

Byron_C, Jul 2026

Superb Biblical Tour

Our guide, Nikos, was very friendly and knowledgeable. He placed great emphasis on customizing the tour to meet our needs, interests and time schedule. We enjoyed getting away from the typical Athens tours and crowds yet still had time to end our visit with the view of the Parthenon from Mars Hill.

Delphi Guided Small Group Day Tour from Athens

Keturah_V, Jul 2026

Don’t miss this excursion

We had an absolutely lovely day in Delphi. Our guide in the Van was Lilly and she was very friendly and organized. Our guide once we got to Delphi was absolutely phenomenal. We learned so many things from her and she made the day so fun. We could tell she loved what she did. We stopped at the most amazing restaurant for lunch that had an awesome view and the food was delicious. It was a great way to see a different part of Greece. That is so conveniently located near Athens. We highly recommend booking this excursion.

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

Jakob_R, Jul 2026

Wonderful day trip with cute fishing village and crystal blue water

This was a wonderful day trip. The boat has a terrific staff that will inform you about various key sites including the castles and the monastery that you see on the way from Corfu town to Paxos and Antipaxos. The boat stops in the town of Gaios for a few hours where you can eat lunch, or just walk around and explore. After that, the boat takes you to Antipaxos where I swam in the most light blue crystal clear water I’ve ever seen. On the way back a DJ plays music where my friends and I started dancing. The whole day trip was a blast and gives visitors to Corfu a great opportunity to check out the great islands of Paxos and Antipaxos nearby. A must do experience.

Full-Day Trip to Meteora from Thessaloniki

Annie, Jun 2026

Worth the Long Day for Meteora

A long day, but absolutely worth it to experience the incredible monasteries of Meteora. We visited two monasteries and stopped at a beautiful viewpoint overlooking the others — a highlight of the day. There was one restroom break on the way to Meteora and another on the return, and the monasteries themselves also have facilities, which made the journey comfortable. The time allocated at each monastery felt adequate, and we never felt rushed while exploring. Our guide was informative and approachable, adding helpful context throughout the day without overwhelming the experience. Lunch was arranged at a specific restaurant that isn’t near any alternatives, so there are no other dining options. The food was decent, fairly priced, and served quickly — we were able to finish within about an hour. Overall, it’s a long day, but the sights of Meteora are spectacular and absolutely worth the trip. Highly recommend.

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.

Beautiful views

We were on a 6 hour tour with Sara who was a wonderful tour guide! She asked us what we wanted to see while in Santorini, so of course we said the views. Sara knew all of the best places for gorgeous views! We saw Fira, Oia, and some smaller local villages. We also had lunch at a local restaurant at the black sand beach which was delicious, especially the fresh fish.

Athens & Acropolis Highlights - Archaeologist Led Private Tour

Cathy_B, Oct 2025

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!
