I summed it up in my comments about my two awesome CEOs, Oliver and Vas, but I would just like just like to add that this was my first trip with G Adventures, and (fingers crossed) definitely not my last! Greece is a beautiful, complex, and diverse country, and I'm so grateful to have experienced it through this tour. Exploring the lush forests of Corfu, seeing the ancient ruins in Athens, walking through a village in Naousa, Paros, visiting the beaches of Ios, and of course, the ending in the iconic town of Fira in Santorini, all of these incredible experiences and memories were only enhanced by my CEOs, and my travel groups. I honestly couldn't ask for more out of a trip. To this day, I'm still a little amazed that I got to experience it at all. What a gift!

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.

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.

Starting in lively Mykonos, you’ll cruise the sparkling Aegean Sea aboard a private yacht and drop anchor at islands that seem unchanged by time. Hike to a clifftop castle in Kythnos, share a homemade dinner with a local family in Syros and unearth the stories of legendary gods and ancient civilisations on the UNESCO-listed Delos.

This tour was a perfect balance of amazing food, historical sites, and sightseeing, and time to do things on your own. We had such a dynamic and charismatic group leader that made the whole experience that much better. Wide range of activities, which made interesting aspects to the food tour theme… it was a magnificent trip!

Spend eight sun-kissed days island-hopping, swimming and hiking your way through the Cyclades. Kick things off in the port town of Lavrio near Athens, then set sail across the Aegean on a private yacht. Dropping anchor at some of Greece's lesser-known islands, you’ll hike through sleepy villages and along craggy cliffs, share a homemade dinner with a local family in Syros and uncover the stories of ancient civilisations on the UNESCO-listed Delos. With an experienced skipper leading the way, daily sea dips and plenty of free time to soak up the slower rhythm of island life, this is the Cyclades at their best.

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!
