The unique view of Pamukkale and the balloon tour in Cappadocia were unforgettable memories. The food was just according to my taste. Hotels were at an average level. I had travelled to Greece before, so I didn't see anything new there that surprised me, but I was in Turkey for the first time. It is a beautiful country, far above my expectations.

The guides answered all my curious questions with great patience. This is a very important detail because this patience is not usually shown in tours with a rich itinerary like this tour. You deserve a big 5 points from me.

Discover a piece of Ancient Grecian history on this private, full-day tour that starts from Athens! Explore West Greece Aitolia and Akarnania, two great ancient states that bordered the Acheloos River. Impressive hidden gems lesser-known by tourists, this tour to these spots is for adventurous visitors looking for something new and alternative!
The area we visit is considered one of the most virgin areas across Greece. Its residents have remained with their roots and have cultivated the land for ages, and love showing the "true identity" of Greece to curious visitors. This is a relatively untouched area, away from the spotlights and current affairs, waiting for travelers to explore!
This is an excellent tour if you have just a day in Athens or are short on time.

My experience with G Adventures was absolutely incredible. This was my first time travelling and I couldn?t have asked for a better way to do it. As a female solo traveller, I found that G Adventures was a great way to travel while creating friendships and feeling safe. The CEOs are absolutely phenomenal and add so much value to travelling, especially if you don?t know too much about the destinations you?re travelling to. Everything is so well organised and coordinated. Can?t wait for my next G trip.

Begin with a night in Athens, once the heart of Ancient Greece, a powerful civilization and empire. You will quickly see that the city today is still dominated by 5th century BC landmarks such as the Acropolis. You will embark the cruise from here and sail towards Mykonos, and island with many beautiful beaches and world class entertainment. Sail to Türkiye and visit Kusadasi, a beach resort town on Türkiye’s western Aegean coast. The seafront promenade, marina and harbor are all lined with hotels and restaurants to greet visitors. Visit the significant Christian pilgrimage site of Patmos; its Cave of the Apocalypse is where John of Paramos is said to have written the Book of Revelations. In Rhodes and Heraklion, see ancient ruins and archaeological sites that date back to a time of medieval towns and fortresses. Your trip ends after a visit to Santorini, known for its whitewashed buildings, dazzling panoramas and romantic sunsets.
Tour of Acropolis was excellent but felt that there were other sites in Athens which should have been included. The Natiional Archaelogy Museum is a treasure and should have been a basis for all of the sites we visited all over Greece..
It was a wekl-planned itinerary which allowed us to see a wealth of famous historical sites as well as showing us some contemporary “slices of life”.
Good tour director, site guides and driver as well as wuality a commodations, coach and meals.
I joined this tour as an 18 year old first time solo traveller, scared and excited to travel with strangers. To put it simply, it exceeded all my expectations. The places I’ve been, the things I’ve seen and the people I’ve met put my experience over the top. Thank you G Adventures!
