Lovely trip to Crete, showing the highlights of the island. It was nice to visit the smaller villages that I wouldn’t have known of. Beautiful scenery, clear blue water, and nice pebble beaches. The CEO Sakis was excellent and helped navigate us throughout the trip and recommended some really nice restaurants and bakeries. Ending in Santorini to see a different island with completely different vibe was a good way to end the trip.

It was wonderful to experience Greece with others without feeling like I should find a friend to travel with. Our CEO’s enthusiasm about the culture was contagious. Thanks for creating an active vacation experience!

An amazing journey around just two of the Balkans with a chance to discover their amazing cultural and political history. Needless to say, the landscapes are incredible and vary massively as you cross the country. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants to learnt as much as they can about this spectacular region in a relatively short amount of time.

This was a memorable trip for me and am so glad that I found G Adventures. Having a leader from the country itself made a huge difference - he could explain so many nuanced things to us. I will definitely recommend this trip to friends!

I loved this trip! There were a few small things that I think need to be straightened out but overall it was really great. I really liked that mix of mountains, cities, towns and beaches.
