Peloponnese Explorer - Summer tours
4.5
This was a fascinating and rewarding tour led by an extremely efficient young man called Christos. Transport throughout was in a first class mini-bus and hotel accommodation was more than adequate, if not always top rate. The itinerary was varied and comprehensive and our only reservation concerned the number of rather grueling and lengthy walks involved.
Clients should, perhaps, have been made more aware that many of the historical sites in Greece lie at the top of steep hills. Access is often only possible up steep and slippery cobbled tracks which can be difficult for the elderly and a daunting challenge for anyone with mobility issues. On more than one occasion, at least 4 members of our group felt compelled to opt out and entertain themselves for an hour or more while waiting for the others.
That aside, my wife and I enjoyed every single moment of the tour and we cannot praise Christos highly enough. He is young and still keen to learn, but he showed remarkable maturity in his dealings with everyone in the group and his organizational skills were excellent and beyond reproach. Well done to him - and our driver George as well!
