Chania was probably my favorite spot, especially with how laid-back it felt. The ferry rides were actually really fun. I spent most of the time just watching the water and the dolphins.
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.

We had a fantastic time and enjoyed having access to some of the smaller, less travelled islands. We had experiences we wouldn't have had on a self-guided trip and the opportunity to meet other travellers (I actually added a week of travel in another country with a friend I met on the boat!). This was a cool way to experience Greece and I am excited to try other G Adventures tours in the future!
Mykonos and Santorini were beyond beautiful! I was impressed by how smooth everything went from start to finish. The tour was well-paced, and we got to see so much without feeling rushed.

This 10-day Greece tour balances some of Greece's most impressive and fascinating ancient sites around Athens, Olympia and Delphi with the spectacular monasteries at Meteora and one of the Mediterranean's most beautiful and interesting islands, Santorini.
We start with a tour of Athens itself, taking in the ancient sites of the Acropolis and some of modern Athens below as well. Next we head west towards Mycenea with several stops and some scenic coastal scenery along the way. Our guide will provide explanations about Greek history and mythology, relating them to the places you're visiting. Its an amazing feeling seeing the actual places where heroes and heroines from mythology played out their stories. Our next stop is the lovely Mediterranean village of Nafplion which nestles at the foot of a cliff overlooked by the ramparts of the Palamidi Fortress. Next we head to Olympia, birthplace of the Olympics and more ancient sites, before we tour the temples and ruins at Delphi on the way. Our final major stop in mainland Greece is then to see the amazing cliiftop monasteries and breathtaking scenery of Meteora, before we head back to Athens.
We take to the ferry next and sail into the Aegean Sea to the volcanic island of Santorini. The island was created in its present form by a huge volcanic eruption over 3,500 years ago that created a large crater which is now filled by the sea forming a huge bay surrounded by steep cliffs and coloured lava pebble beaches. The island is full of small villages with narrow winding alleys and whitewashed buildings that are fascinating to hike through. There are also hot springs, wineries and the remaining active volcano itself to discover. We have a couple of days here to relax and explore the island before returning to Athens to finish our tour.
This is a group tour that runs throughout the year, staying in comfortable hotels at around the 4-star level. We can also arrange the tour privately if you would prefer not to join a group.

This experience felt too short, which I always think is the sign of a good trip. It made me feel connected to the Greek culture, and our shared global history. I hope to go back in the not too distant future and maybe even go skiing in Greece.
This was a great trip and has made me want to explore Greece further. We didn?t have much wind which had a lot of upsides actually, the group we went with were amazing and our captain Erwin was helpful, practical and entertaining. I would recommend bringing a driving licences so more exploration of the islands could be done. I?m not sure it would be a comfortable trip if you had to share a tiny cabin with a stranger, or didn?t like swimming, but my partner and I had an awesome time. Thanks all!
I had the most fantastic time island hopping through Greece. The views were absolutely beautiful, but a lot of it was due to our fantastic trip manager, *Personal details removed by Feefo*, who made sure that we were having a fantastic time all the time no matter what we were doing no matter where we went. He went above and beyond and made sure that even during our free time when he didn’t need to that, we were having reservations at dinner or going out somewhere fun and having drinks and he just did a really absolutely fantastic job. And although my group was smaller than the average and made it so it was really intimate and that we were able to connect with the other travellers on the group, and I made some lifelong friends. And of course Greece is absolutely and incredible country and has some many amazing things to see.
I referred to this tour company for a last minute service and Anthony was unbelievable helpful and informative. He attended to my needs in a very timely manner and was very professional the entire time. overall a 10/10 experience. Someone give Anthony a raise!
