Walking the Greek islands A fabulous way to see the islands, largely unspoilt fortunately despite their popularity. We were transported outside of the “tourist” area to ancient walking paths and walked through mediaeval villages. Our excellent Greek guide was able to fill us in with very interesting historical/local information to really get a picture of life in these islands.
Eight days flashed past. We covered a lot of ground, but the travelling was carefully planned and broken up with site visits.
Our Greek tour guide, Eva, provided valuable information about where to eat and what to do in free moments. More about her later......
The hotels were comfortable and central. The driver, Manolis, was steady and safe and the roads are much improved.
Really enjoyable vacation. Cecile was a wonderful tour guide and all the three islands that we visited on the trip were lovely. I liked Paros the most but only by a hair. Naxos and Santorini were beautiful and was happy that we got to visit Akrotiri in Santorini. All very scenic and relaxed.
