Greece sightseeing tours are a heady mix of ancient architecture and romantic ruins. Admire the towering columns of the Parthenon, the Temple of Zeus and the Olympic Stadium during sightseeing tours in Athens. See the remarkable monasteries of the Metéora, nestled amid rocks and hills. Stroll past the Roman ruins and Ottoman sites in Thessaloniki and explore Agios Dimitrios, the church built in honor of the city’s patron saint. Get transported to the spiritual past of ancient Greece in Delphi, where the ruins of the Temple of Apollo are a major draw. See the iconic white windmills and Greek churches like the much-photographed Paraportiani Church on sightseeing tours in Mykonos. Go on sightseeing tours in Ios, a Greek island known for its marble theater (modeled on ancient Greek theaters) and the beautiful bell tower of Panayia Gremiotissa.

“Loved Naxos and Santorini, beautiful islands, good accommodation, great food. The routes were a good mix and there was plenty of scope to make your own alterations to the routes given the excellent trail systems on the Cyclades. Definitely recommended for first timers walking in Greece.”

“Our first self-guided walking trip was an unqualified success and reassuring to have a named person to deal with from the outset. Route-finding was very straightforward, with map, comprehensive descriptions and GPS waypoints. A joy to travel light, confident that comfortable accommodation was awaiting us at the end of each day. A perfect way to get to know a "new" island in the Cyclades.”
Our tour was well planned with variety and interesting points of interest.
