George was an excellent tour leader. He provided all kinds of interesting and entertaining facts about mythology, Paul and Greece. I would recommend him to others. It is a tough trip and you really need to be able to walk from 16000 to 20000 steps per day. A lot of places were just opening because the tour seasons started that week.

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.

I loved every moment of our tour from İstanbul to Kuşadası. The historical sites in Troy and Pergamon were fascinating. Our driver, Mehmet, was incredibly courteous and made us feel very safe. The hotels were comfortable, and the food was always fresh and tasty. A wonderful trip overall!

Taking this tour across Greece’s mainland and islands was such a rich and layered experience. Each day had its own flavor, blending history, culture, and just enough downtime to take it all in. Our guide, Stelio, was amazing at sharing stories that brought Greek mythology and history into each place we visited, and I felt genuinely connected to each site—Delphi and Meteora especially were something else. The hotels were comfortable and conveniently placed, which made it easy to enjoy some solo exploration. I have to give a nod to Alex from Eskapas for his seamless organization; everything felt thought-out from start to finish. Honestly, it’s rare to travel without a hitch, but this trip managed it, and I’m really glad I chose Eskapas.

I have been dreaming of traveling to Turkey for a long time. I had initially booked this tour in 2020 and clearly it had to be cancelled. Five years later, my expectations were exceeded by this tour. The rich history, culture, the food and the beautiful people of Turkey— this is a trip not to be missed!

Maria was the greatest. I had so much fun! A great mix or relaxation and partying. Not as full on as a Contiki tour, which was great. Also Maria was literally so helpful and went out of her way to be helpful and kind and enjoyable. It was really nice to have someone do the planning for you, so I kind of felt like I was on vacation with a parent who just told me where to go or what to do, so I didn’t have to think about it.

Overall I really enjoyed it and would highly recommend it to everyone! Having everything organised for you, getting unique tips from your CEO to make the most of your trip and historical context from them of where you are and what's around you, and enjoying it with a group of new friends is the perfect combo! The only downside was my experience at Stalis Hotel unfortunately.
