Greece Tours for Young Adults

We recently returned from our Play & Pause: Southeastern Europe Highlights trip and our response when asked “how was it?,” has remained the same…”incredible!” Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, filled with stunning landscapes, rich history, and diverse cultures. We experienced much on this trip, while creating lifelong memories. The itinerary was very well planned, offering a great balance between organised activities and free time. This gave us the chance to explore the major highlights of each location while also enjoying the flexibility to either relax or explore each destination at our own pace. Accommodation was generally well located, with most hotels within walking distance of key locations/attractions. When transport was required, there were easily available options and reasonably priced (trains, busses, taxi or Uber etc) The hotel quality was varied. Most were good value given the overall price…others were definitely an “experience.” A real standout was our tour leader, Cass. She was exceptional and added so much to the trip. She was knowledgeable, organised, and genuinely passionate about ensuring everyone in our group had the best experience possible. Her professionalism and positive energy elevated the whole trip. This tour was a perfect way to explore the Balkans in a relaxed, engaging, and memorable way. We highly recommend it to anyone looking to experience a slightly different version of Europe, where you can have fun while still experiencing a beautiful, historic and diverse region.

The Greek island hopper tour was everything I could have asked for and more! Lauren McLean (tour guide) was a true gem and made the trip so enjoyable along with a fantastic group of strangers who are now life long friends.

This trip was incredible from start to finish! The way it was planned and the islands we went to were beautiful! The way it was organised and knowing we had a tour guide who was so kind and reliable made this solo trip so easy and stress free. I would recommend this trip to anyone!

Maria was an absolute lifesaver! She was insanely helpful, knowledgeable, and helped us with the locals speaking greek where needed and negotiating such as taxi prices so we weren't charged extra 'tourist tax'! The activities and places we went were fantastic. I got lucky with a fantastic group of people. As a solo female traveller, having a great group and a great leader was paramount. I fortunately was blessed with both! Only negative would be the very long a chaotic ferry ride from Santorini to Athens on the final day. It was booked for later in the day so we didn't arrive back to the hotel in Athens until after midnight, making us exhausted for our travels the following day. The ferry was also overbooked which meant we had to fight for a seat, some travellers having to sit on dining chairs placed against a wall or in the middle of a room (none of this any fault of Marias - she handled it amazingly!) Could be ideal for Top Deck to perhaps book an earlier ferry for this day or a flight instead.

I absolutely loved this trip ! Oliver, the CEO made everything so smooth, stressfree and warmly welcoming and it was lovely to travel along people from everywhere in the world and get to share this little bubble together ! I would definitely travel again with GAdventures in the future !

My Greece trip was incredible! From exploring Athens’ history to the beauty of Mykonos, Ios, and Santorini, every stop was stunning. Perfect balance of culture, relaxation, and fun—I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
