Don’t Miss This
Andreas was our guide and was a masterful historian, a true believer and a legitimately good person. We were able to get outside the city to a less crowded area, and it was a wonderful, contemplative day. The ancient city of Corinth was incredible, and it was a remarkable feeling to be there. The experience is one we will never forget.

A must see!
It’s wonderful and well worth the time and money. There are a lot of stairs and you should be physically prepared, however there is no rush and you can enter and tour the monasteries at your own pace.
The trip is long from Athens. You should plan on about a 14 hour day with 4-5 hours of travel time each way. They make a 30-40 minute stop for food, drink, and restroom on the way. There’s a lunch stop at the base before you begin your ascent (by vehicle) up to the monasteries, and a stop for dinner on the way back to Athens.
Anyway, plenty of opportunities for food if you want to eat, and restroom breaks.
The tour guides are amazing and supply lots of stories and historical information. The building of these monasteries is an incredible feat on its own. The fact that many are still operational and inhabited by monks and/or nuns is also amazing.
Do it! You won’t be sorry!

It’s not a party boat,...
It’s not a party boat, which was ideal for us. Very chilled out but we did have fun with the crew on the way back. Lovely food in the first island we landed at. Chance to swim at the second one at sea. The third island you csn again disembark to explore the village and swim in the harbour but beware of the jellyfish. A young girl on our tour got a nasty sting.
Fabulous day though with cheap drinks on board and a great crew

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!

Delphi Tour
This was a great tour! Servi (probably misspelled) was amazing. We misunderstood to pick up time and she waited for us. It was also colder than normal for this time of year and she accommodated our group accordingly. It is a long day, but Servi made it go by very fast. The museum was great. I think more time on your own would be good. I hurried to the stadium, took some pictures and hurried back down to get back to the group. I had no time to really process what I was seeing. We then went to lunch in Delphi, which was fantastic with a great view of the area. The ride back to town was easy. The tour was well worth the time and money. I would highly recommend doing this tour.

Epidaurus, Mycenae & Napfilo
Great trip! The time was divided well between the three sites. There was plenty of time to see each. The guide was very knowledgeable. He provided a good balance between describing things to the group and allowing us free time to explore. It was a great rest day from a bicycle tour!

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.

The whole experience was...
The whole experience was very well organised but you need to pay attention so you know which bus and boat you are getting - if you're not listening you are causing delays! Nisyros was beautiful, the volcano crater and caldera were very interesting to visit and a very dramatic landscape. Marta (the english-speaking guide) was very friendly and welcoming, had tons of information about the island and went it of her way to make sure everyone was happy, especially our two year old! Genuinely a lovely person who made our trip easier and enjoyable. The restaurant she recommended was excellent and her knowledge of Nisyros was too.
The volcanic crater isn't suitable for those who are unsteady or in a wheelchair/pushchair, and if you're seasick then the boat crossing might be difficult for you but we had a brilliant time. Thank you Marta!

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.
