Wonderful Tour, let down at the end by the drop-off point in Athens

Patrick_H, Jul 2025

Wonderful tour with a super-knowledgeable guide, comfortable transport and amazing sites. Hotels and food were absolutely fine. One word of warning (which is why I knocked off a star): on the final day, we were dropped off in the centre of Athens (with our luggage) by the tour operator (Keytours), not at our drop-off hotel. We later complained to Viator, who eventually apologised and offered a compensatory payment, which was appreciated.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Dear Patrick, Thank you for your kind feedback about the tour, our guide, and the overall experience. We’re delighted you enjoyed the journey, the sites, and the accommodations. Regarding the drop-off, we’re sorry this caused you some inconvenience. The conclusion of our tours takes place at a selection of centrally located hotels in Athens, which serve as designated drop-off points for all guests. This arrangement allows us to manage logistics smoothly and fairly for everyone on board. We understand, however, that this may not have been the most convenient option in your case, and we appreciate your feedback. We’re very happy that, overall, you had a wonderful experience, and we hope to welcome you again in the future. Kind Regards, Margarita Karavasileiadi

Wonderful trip

Shelina_H, May 2025

Excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable and pleasant to talk to. Very good hotels and nice but little expensive place to stop for lunch. Wonderful trip

Response from Host, May 2025

Thank you for your great feedback! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the tour and had such a positive experience with our knowledgeable and pleasant guide. We're also glad the hotels met your expectations and that the lunch stop, while a bit pricey, was enjoyable. It’s wonderful to know the trip left such a good impression — we hope to see you again on another tour!

Great three day tour of ancient sites

Jennifer_M, Oct 2024

Imteresting sites, museums and commentary along the way. Tours were organised at times when sites were less crowded which was a bonus.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

The BEST EVER!

Bee_G, Aug 2024

FANTASTIC! We rarely do tours but wanted to experience the Greek culture - Dozia Dermatidou exceeded our expectations! If I could give this tour a 10 it still would not really express how impressive her knowledge and passion is!! Everything was extraordinary, all details were carefully done, our comfort was important to her and the driver (Jon - bus driver extraordinaire!!!), the places we visited and stayed at were exceptional…We HIGHLY recommend this tour hands down! And to add to how exceptional this tour company is, our transfer to another bus in Delphi with Irene Koumpoura and driver Vaggelis was as superior as well! We felt very taken care of and had a wonderful time! A MUST do in Greece!!

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Dear Guest, We are absolutely thrilled to hear that your experience with Dozia and our team exceeded your expectations. It’s wonderful to know that their knowledge, passion, and attention to detail made such a strong impression. Your high recommendation means a lot to us, and we’re grateful for your kind words about the overall experience. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you on another adventure soon! Best Regards, Margarita Karavasileiadi

Enjoyable Tour

Lisa_K, May 2022

Our trip with Sophia was very good. She was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Would have been helpful to have maps of the larger areas we visited to navigate quickly, though. The tourist class hotels were just ok. Wouldn’t attempt this itinerary on our own. Overall, glad we chose this tour. Our group was husband, wife and 23 year-old daughter. To see everything, you should be in good physical condition. But if not, you can see most areas. May was excellent time of year temperature-wise, but ran into a lot of local school groups.

Fantastic lesson

pck84, Oct 2019

Anna our guide was very knowledgeable and a great teacher! The journey took us through beautiful countryside, villages and attractions. The classical sites are well worth the guided tour to get full benefit. Start with the meuseum of archeology to get the background. Food at taverns and hotels were great. Glad i did the tour.

Response from Host, Oct 2019

Dear Guest, Thank you a lot for your fantastic review of our Classical Greece 3-Day Tour: Epidaurus, Mycenae, Olympia, and Delphi from Athens.

We will transfer to her your comments the soonest as possible. Hope to see you soon in one of our future tours. All the best, Marianna Papakosta

Mala experiencia en tour de 3 días

Julio_B, May 2022

Lugares increíbles. Buen hotel 4* en Olimpia. Cena pésima en hotel 4* de Delphos, hotel Apolonio. Sin opciones de menú, arroz con pollo únicamente, entrada y plato principal los sirvieron en el mismo plato. Cuando me quejé en el hotel me dijeron que le reclame a Viator. El tercer día del tour es un desastre. Cómo combinan excursiones, tuvimos que cambiar de colectivo y esperar 3 horas en un restaurante en el medio de la nada. Solo se podía esperar ahí. Al regreso, Me dejaron con mi mujer que no puede caminar mucho y 2 valijas grandes a 8 cuadras del hotel. Se suponía que era en la puerta. Muy mala atención de la guia Mariana, que cuando reclamé no me dió respuestas. Nunca recibí una pedido de disculpas. Viator debe revisar lo que hace el operador de Atenas, porque los hace quedar mal. La calidad de un servicio mejora cuando se controla.
