The island tours and optional experiences provided were so worthwhile! These experience allowed us the opportunity to truly experience the places we visited and learn fascinating and phenomenal pieces of information. The costsaver and local guides truly made the optional experiences a part of the trip we HAD to experience for every place we visited.
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!
