I had a wonderful time on this trip and would highly recommend it! The guide was extremely knowledgeable and engaging. I learned so much about Greek history which I loved! The driver was also great and gave us a very smooth trip. The whole tour was very well organised and the hotels were very good. Highly recommened!

Similar experience with past reviews that first day was slightly packed with little time to explore the sites. It didn’t help that our guide was slightly young and inexperienced. While she was helpful and did her job to tell the facts but we had more fun tagging along other guides who were better at storytelling when visiting the sites. She was also slightly confused about the logistics especially on the last day as our groups had visitor of 3and 4 days tour and had to be split. Good pick up and drop off service

Great tour. Excellent guide and driver. Views along the north Ageian coast were spectacular. I’m not gonna say anymore.

This was a great tour package from Athens to several beautiful and interesting historical old Greek sires. Our tour guide, Dominic, was a great guide who looked over us like a mother hen and was a wealth of knowledge. The hotels were fairly good along with great breakfast and excellent dinner meals included. Everything was well planned and taken care of and all we had to do was go along. There were only twelve of us in a small party type bus, which was great. Our only but was the driving. We have to say that we did not feel completely comfortable as we felt the driver was driving way too fast for many of the roads. This, as we found out later, might be typical of most drivers in Greece and not just our bus driver. We were sitting up front and could see the speedometer and many times the driver was going 90-100 kph in areas posted 50-60 kph. Even through narrow city streets where it was posted 30-50 kph he continued at those high speeds. He appeared to be a good driver, knowing the roads, but seeing him drive at those high speeds through narrow streets in many small villages just left us unable to relax, and much of the travel was on windy, steep, and narrow roads. We questioned the tour guide if we were in a hurry and I was told the speed limit in the country is 100 kph, but that was obviously not the case on much of the roads we traveled. Again, maybe this is typical of drivers in all of Greece, but if the driver had driven slower this would definitely have been a five star tour. Again, if not for the driving, the guide Dominic was excellent, the sites were wonderful, the lodging and food were great, and everything is well planned, effortless, and well taken care of for you.

Temples of Apollo and Athena. My husband, who used a cane, was keeping up pretty well. While we expected no special considerations, it would have been nice for our guide to at least inquire how he was doing.

Unfortunately the guide was hard to understand with her thick accent. I had been on the exact same tour before with an excellent guide, but both my wife and I were disappointed with this experience. Also, time at archeological sites was sometimes cut short to allow the guide to shepherd us to stops for unnecessary shopping that did little to enhance the overall experience. Some important historical information was skipped over during some presentations. The electronic sound devices did not work well when the guide was walking and talking. Sound quality was better when the guide stopped and faced the tour group. The guide treated the group like small school children by constantly questioning what the group remembered from the past museum visit. Between the thick accent and scattershot details my wife felt very disappointed in the experience and presentation. Since I knew some Greek history, I was not as frustrated, but still disappointed. We later met a guide with another group that spoke clearly. We wished we had encountered her on our tour. The archeological sites are wonders in themselves, but could use a better guide to bring forth their history.

the sites we saw were spectacular. Our guide was fabulous. the only critique is that all the rooms are in the same chain of hotels, so although I paid extra for first class accommodation, the room was seemed to be their standard room. The bus going back was delayed because of rain and thunder.

Our tour guide, Averkios, was fantastic! He really knows his history and archeology and was a great teacher throughout the entire tour. It was easy to see his passion for the subject. The hotels were very nice and the food was very good. The schedule was a perfect balance of organized education and then some time on our own to explore. Highly recommend this tour.
