This was a most amazing trip filled with beautiful scenery, Greek archaeology and fantastic Greek food and traditions. The cycling was quite challenging (for me because I find hills difficult!!!) although I didn't have to get off and walk or push so it was 'do'able. However, the reward at the top of spectacular views and the tremendous exciting descents made it all worth while! Greek achaeology was everywhere, hotels were great and the food delicious. It was the perfect time to go as I have always visited in August before so we saw a Greece that was green, lush and covered in wild flowers of every colour imaginable. The aroma from the orange blossom should be bottled!!! Altogether, very enjoyable.
What an amazing trip! Every day was special - the history, old ruins, culture, food, the beautiful islands and the wonderful Greek people. We also were lucky to have the lovely Laura as our guide and Tassios as our expert driver
The trip was amazing! The Best of Greece tour covers all the main highlights you'd want to see in Greece and more! The included experiences were great and the optional excursions give you the opportunity to do and learn even more. Our tour guide, Matt, was knowledgeable and our bus driver, Tasos, was very skilled. The hotel accommodations varied from acceptable to excellent. Breakfasts were generally good, but the included lunches and dinners were hit or miss. We loved visiting Kalambaka and Mykonos; we would have liked more time staying in Nafplion and visiting Delos. Best of Greece was a fantastic vacation -- however, we wouldn't necessarily recommend it specifically as a honeymoon (as we did) because it is a very group-centered trip, especially during the first week. Overall, we loved it and highly recommend this Expat Explore trip!
