Athens Explorer Trips

The island coach was great and so were most of the hotels. The hotel near Meteroa was a bit far away from anything which wasn't ideal. All of the hotels in Santorini and Mykonos were fantastic. We loved staying at Kamari in Santorini! On the land tour we were informed we couldn't do all the activities on the itinerary due to time constraints. To avoid disappointment, if it isn't feasible to do an activity it should not be included.

Ir was such a wonderful experience. was absolutely the best and attentive in every way. She made our trip so pleasurable, kept us up to date with everything. She is so very knowledgeable, friendly, funny, warm and caring. Thanks to her, our trip was fantastic.

There was 14 Passengers, A Senior Tour Guide Themis, an Apprentice: Joanne and the Driver of the Bus. We started out on 26 April to 7 May 2025 - 12 days Tour starting off walking around Acrogolis in the rain, leaving 7:45am from our Hotel . We were informed by using WhatsApp in a Message daily. The group would be informed on what to wear, time and Date details. We could leave photos or questions to Themis. An Unusual way of showing us the ruins by walking everywhere while in Athens. Then, taking us to Greek Islands by using the Super Cat which is known by SeaStar Jet, fast and economic way - travelling by vehicle or by foot around the Islands. This is the way the Greeks travelled bringing their food items by trucks or Carriers even by people with their daily shopping, this is what we saw when, we travelled to Naxos, which was a 5 hours trip from Athens, where we stayed over for 3 days. The weather was quite cold, wet and miserable. The coldest period of time while we were on holidays in Greece 10 to 17 degrees. We returned to Athens via Piraeus Port on the mainland, picked up by our driver to continue on travelling over the mainland.

The itinerary was excellent. All the accommodations were comfortable and clean. Some were beautiful and luxurious. Our Tour Guide, Athina was incredible. She provided historical and mythological context for the sites we were to see. She had a great sense of humor, and was easy to talk with. She made our trip a wonderful experience. Fotis, our bus driver was skilled, friendly, and happy to participate in our conversations. His skill as a driver was amazing! He and Athina were a great team, and together they made our trip memorable.

The itinerary was excellent, and the pace was comfortable. The Hotels were varied and interesting. All were comfortable. Our Tour Guide, Athina Thomas is amazing! She dealt with 17 different personalities, wants and needs without getting ruffled. She was always patient, gracious and accommodating. She has a lovely personality and everyone on our trip enjoyed her. Her knowledge of Greek history added to the knowledge we were building and it provided context for the amazing sights we were seeing. Our trip was memorable.

Themis was a fantastic tour guide. He addressed my husband’s blocked ear with the utmost professionalism, which I cannot say was the situation with our previous tour when it began!!! Our driver was also very, good! Themis kept us updated on all myths and history. He handled a particularly difficult client with the utmost respect from the rest of us. Hence, our tour was not ruined. We all had a fantastic holiday that will remain with love and respect for Greece and its people.
