Our guide Yianni was great, he has great experience with a wealth of knowledge to match. He was able to answer all our questions plus more and made our tour fun to be apart of. Most of the accommodation was good and in the right locations and had great views in Paros.

It was fun, but felt like there were lots of costs added that could have been done more cheaply e.g shuttle to town and back could have been the public bus. We also went to lots of bars that weren’t very full, so would rather have spent time at busier, more social ones. Loved Mykonos!

Elia, our trip guide was excellent. He was professional and friendly and made sure everyone was doing okay. I got sick on the first day. He showed genuine concern for my well-being and helped me seek medical assistance. He was also fantastic at dealing with some other dramas on the trip. I had a great time, but would have had much more fun had I not gotten sick so early

Amalia was our tour guide and she was funny, honest, genuine and unique. She gave us all the right information on the days ahead, excursions and also answered any and all questions we had about the tour. The people were all nice and I made a couple friends, the accomodation in Athens was great, Santorini could have been better, Ios was good but Paros was the nicest for sure and Mykonos was good considering we were right on the resort near the parties! The transfers to and from the ports was well organised and in an AC bus. The only complaint I would have is that we had to settle the bill ourselves every dinner which was a bit hard when some people didn’t have cash on them and etc. Also our group was a bit disappointed with the “Greek Night in Paros” as the restaurant did not serve 3 courses of authentic Greek food: it was Greek salad, bread and a mini beef roast with potatoes, as a Greek myself I was very disappointed with this. All up it was a good experience for island hopping!

It was really well organised Wish I knew that you could stay in Mykonos rather than going back to Athens and that the 9 day and 11 is the same just that Athens is missed out. Wasting two days just to travel to the starting and ending island. I didn’t like how it was almost complusory that you had to come to the dinners. Tour guide was amazing and super lovely!

Hi there - thank you for taking the time to review your tour with us this summer in Greece. It is great to read you felt the tour was well organised and you were happy with your Tour Guide Amalia, this is fantastic! It's important to us to be able to offer a return tour from Athens as many guests joining us find it easier to book return flights to Athens, instead of flying into Santorini and out from Mykonos. Sometimes, this can make travel to Greece cheaper than booking the two individual flights. The Tour Guide will recommend restaurants each day for your evening meal and we often see on tours the group will decide to dine together. As this is not an inclusion, it is not compulsory to have the evening meal together if you'd prefer to dine elsewhere. Your feedback is important to us, so I will be sure to pass the suggestions you have noted onto our Operations Manager in Athens, thank you for this. We're pleased you had a wonderful time and hope you will join us again in the future.
I had such an amazing experience doing the 11 day tour. Everything was planned out really well and it exceeded my expectations. The only downfall is there is a lot of unnecessary waiting (waiting at dinner an hour after everyone completed) could’ve used this time to explore the town etc. I’ve made some incredible memories that will last a lifetime. Would definitely recommend to my friends in the future. Thanks again for the experience 🙌🏽

Pros: - Hassle free travel. All transport is organised. - Great excursions. - Tour guide is local making communication and traversing the islands easy. - Most hotels are great. - Very flexible. Can choose to do your own thing if you wish. - Group environment however not tied to the group if you don't want to be. - Tour guide is a great source of information and knows the best spots. Cons: - Athens days consist entirely of travel in ferries. Best to do the 9 day and fly straight to the islands. - Some hotels were poor (internet, rooms, bathrooms). No choice of hotels or locations if you choose to join a tour group. - Excursions will be cancelled if the majority of the group choose to not do it.

It was really good and i enjoyed it except the accomodation i didnt enjoy i think there needs to be upgraded in it but other then that i enjoyed everything else
- Dionis, 31/07/2023 19:24, Travelled with Friend/s
Good activities and locations. Lots of waiting around and would’ve preferred more free time.
- Conor Hodgkinson, 24/07/2023 16:38, Travelled Solo
The tour was fun! Santorini was a bit too rushed and the restaurant choices were a bit too pricey for our group as we would have preferred street food to save money. Us as a group enjoyed being able to have free time in ios and Paros to explore on our own. More time in Santorini free exploring would have been a lot better. We only got 20-30 minutes in oia, would have loved to watch the sunset from here.
- Sarah , 12/07/2023 05:56, Travelled in a Couple
This tour should be rebranded as a party tour as all emphasis is put on going out and partying and very minimal on actually seeing the sights of Greece. This was an extremely expensive and not worth it. Would 100% recommend booking yourself as the accomodation was also disturbing or in the middle of nowhere.

Thank you for your review. We are disheartened to hear of your disappointment with your tour. We aim for a varied balance of sightseeing, adventure, relaxing and partying by offering included walking tours and included/optional excursions such as; Volcano Hike, Speedboat Safari, Traditional Lunch and Paros Day Trip. Our accommodation style does vary and detailed information can be found on our website, so you are aware prior to your arrival at each location. We hope that you enjoyed some aspects of the tour and these issues didn't detract from your overall enjoyment.
I had the best time on this tour! Tour guide was super lovely, activities were fun, night life was amazing. The only thing that was disappointing was the cost of public transportation. I thought that by going on this tour I would be guaranteed transport however we every now and then we had to pay to catch a public bus or ferry. As well as a private transfer on the last night. I just wish they advertised that so I knew.
- Nikki, 02/07/2023 11:08, Travelled with Family
Had a great time. Good mix of partying and chilling out at the beach. Boat excursion in Paros was the best day. Pub crawls and Mykonos beach resort were awesome! Would like to see us taken to street food places more rather than the most expensive restaurants on the island! Amalia tried really hard to make the trip fun for everyone!
- Kailash , 30/06/2023 15:14,
It’s was an Awsome experience, just wish we had a little more independence with where we were eating and stuff like that, but your guide was lovely and really cared which made it all the more better!!
- Sofia , 25/06/2023 10:35, Travelled Solo
The people I met on this trip were all amazing and made me feel so welcome, honestly had the best days and nights with them all. Anthi as our guide could not have been better, everyone from the tour group to the hotel managers and bar owners loved her. She is full of knowledge and knew how to take care of us all. Had no major issues with the accommodation, ferries or transfers. Eight hours from Athens to Santorini was a bit long, the beds in Santorini, Ios and Mykonos were far from comfy and the bathrooms not the most luxurious, but I think that is the true Greek island experience. I was nervous about how this solo trip would pan out but I had the best time and would recommend to anyone!

I had a great time and made lots of new friends. Big thank you to Billy for being a perfect guide! I would have given 5 stars but the accomodation at Santorini Camping wasn't very good. Otherwise I had a perfect trip!
- Thomas, 28/09/2022 12:27, Travelled Solo
Spyros was the best tour guide possible! Couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Such a great experience and definitely the trip of a lifetime.
- Taylor, 01/09/2019 08:13, Travelled Solo
Hi Taylor, thank you for your 5-star rating. We totally agree Spyros is amazing and we will make sure he knows how much of an awesome experience you had on the trip!
The islands were beautiful and I had a great time. Katarina had a lot of knowledge about the islands and tried so hard to ensure we had the best time ever. It could have been improved by not always being at the ports super early as this was a lot of waiting around, but I get that the hotels set when they will do the transfers. Overall a great time and would recommend!
- Kerryann Baker, 31/08/2019 09:50,
Hi Kerryann, Thank you for your review. We're glad you enjoyed your experience on our tour, seeing some of the best islands in world. We will share your comments with your guide Katarina, thank you. We are always looking to improve wherever we can, so we appreciate your comments and suggestions. We're happy that overall, you had a great time and would recommend us to others.
Our tour manager Kriton was very knowledgeable and very sweet! He knew a lot about each island and the history of Greece. He was very friendly and had a great positive attitude. The tour overall was good and fun, but the some of the accommodations were bad (Athens, Santorini & Mykonos). It was easy to access the main attractions of each island by the arranged transfers.
- Emily, 24/08/2019 17:59, Travelled with Friend/s
Hi Emily, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are glad your tour manager Kriton was everything we want in our tour managers; knowledgeable, friendly, positive and fun.

Glad you enjoyed all aspects of the tour Erika😉
The tour was organized. The smaller group made it so nice as it felt like we were a family. The excursions were definitely worth the money. Really a value for money tour. So.etime felt the waits for the Ferry took up too much time as we always left the hotel like 3 hours before and had nothing to do until the Ferry.
- Kirsten, 23/08/2019 09:55, Travelled with Friend/s
Hi Kirsten, Thank you for the great review. We are trying hard to get the perfect balance on our tours with minimal wait times, so we appreciate your comments here. We will use this for future improvements. In saying this, we are delighted you enjoyed yourself and thought you had value for money.
The group of people were fantastic and the islands were beautiful. The extra excursions offered were also interesting and good value for money.

Hi Lauren! Thank you for such a great review and for joining us this season :)
Our tour guide - Elen - made the trip. She made sure everything went so smoothly and looked after us so well. Her knowledge of Greece and her passion for ensuring we had the best time was brilliant and she also provided some hilarious moments along the way! Anyone who ends up her her going forward is so lucky.. you'll be in great hands!!
- Laura, 13/08/2019 08:46, Travelled Solo
Thank you for your comments and rating Laura. We're glad Eleni was a welcomed inclusion on your tour, providing you with a wealth of information, tonnes of fun and passion for the Greek Islands. We know that you were indeed in good hands :-)
Loved the bonding experience and had the best tour guide, Odysseus. We were able to experience Greece to the maximum mainly thankfully to Oddy! As far as improvements, the Athens hostel was not great as it’s far from the nice midtown area and I did not feel safe walking back at night. Additionally, the hotel was also not great so I think most people would pay for a little more to upgrade the hostel.
- Sofia , 03/08/2019 07:56, Travelled with Friend/s
Hey Sofia, thanks for stopping by to share your experience and what an experience at that.

Thanks for your review Selda!
All the islands were beautiful and Kriton was a good friend and instructor on this trip. He did everything possible to make sure we were all involved. Would very much have liked space and time as a couple to go out and explore a bit more. A lot of focus on partying which suited a lot of the group, personally as someone who likes to explore I think I would’ve preferred staying in Mykonos town as I feel like I didn’t get to see it properly.

Awesome to read you had such a great time with us this season on your 11-Day Greek Island Hopping Tour! I will be sure to pass your thanks and kind words onto your Tour Manager, Kriton will be pleased to read what an amazing time you had. I will also forward your comments regarding more time to explorer onto the Operations Manager, thanks for bringing this to our attention and for joining us!

Vassilis was an amazing leader, very knowledgeable and allowed us to have a great time in every location. Would look out for us and be there for questions. All the islands were amazing and the night life was unbelievable. Small shame with windy conditions altering some of the excursions, however the rest was amazing.
