Another great trip with Explore. First week of November and great weather for walking - blue skies all week and low to mid 20s. Our guide Alper was brilliant - friendly, knowledgable and helpful. Each day of walking gave a different landscape, views and lovely lunch stops in rural village 'cafés' - pancakes and fresh orange and pomegranate juice (try the mixed juice!).
Boat trip on the last day was great fun too - definitely take your swimming things (sea much warmer than the hotel swimming pools!)
As expected based on the trip notes and previous reviews, some accommodation was a bit run down but it was all clean and the showers were powerful and (nearly always) warm, with good breakfasts.
Would highly recommend

I thoroughly enjoyed my local experience tour. I was able to complete all the hikes offered. A good number of my fellow travelers were not able to do the hikes. It seemed their understanding of the physical requirements was not good. Perhaps more or clearer information on physical fitness requirements would help(?…).

Fabulous trip, tweaked perfectly by Donal, who knows the area like the back of his hand. The accommodation was great, and having the trip be center based in the one convenient hotel was excellent. In early June, the wildflowers were in profusion, an added bonus to incredible mountain scenery. Uphill parts of walk manageable given a lot of tge mileawas contouring. Highly recommended!

This Greece Islands sailing adventure was so memorable! It exceeded all of our expectations, every day sailing to explore a different island and experience local culture and food as well as gain knowledge about the history and culture of the region. Our skipper CEO Mack was highly knowledgeable about the region and very passionate about sailing as well as sharing his knowledge and providing opportunities for each of us to learn and experience it for ourselves. Our only recommendation is for G Adventures to include more information about the need to pay in cash at restaurants and establishments in the Greek islands (Euros). We thought we would be using our credit card for dinners but learned we really needed to have cash instead.

Our tour guide, Youssef, made our trip truly exceptional with his exceptional level of care and assistance. He was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to ensure our well-being throughout our entire journey. When we encountered health issues during our stay, Youssef was there to support us and make sure we received the necessary care. His attentiveness and kindness were truly remarkable, and we cannot thank him enough for his exceptional service.
Apart from the outstanding support from Youssef, the tour itself was an absolute blast. The activities were meticulously planned and provided us with loads of fun and excitement. From exploring beautiful landmarks to engaging in thrilling adventures, every moment was filled with joy and exhilaration. We were thoroughly impressed with the level of organization and attention to detail.
Additionally, our accommodations exceeded our expectations. We were delighted by the quality and comfort of the accommodations provided. It added an extra touch of luxury and relaxation to our trip, allowing us to unwind and recharge after each exciting day of exploration.
Overall, we highly recommend this tour with a perfect 10/10 rating. The exceptional care and assistance from Youssef, coupled with the well-planned activities and fantastic accommodations, made our trip truly unforgettable. However, we would advise avoiding visiting during the summer months when the heat can become overwhelming. This way, you can fully enjoy all the experiences without any discomfort
As a repeated traveler with G Adventures company, I am sorry to say that this was not the best experience I had in my 2 weeks vacation due to above mentioned issues. The trip otherwise would have been fantastic as the sites are amazing and Sandre's knowledge and experience are remarkable.

Wonderful trip with our guide Lisa. The itinerary was good, but many long bus rides-which is necessary to cover mainland Greece and get in as much as we did in 7 full days. Would have loved to have an overnight stay in Nafplio. Enjoyed staying in hotels within walking distance to the towns-made it really easy to just go during free times. The dinner buffets at the hotels were not my favorite but understand why since a couple nights we were getting into the hotels late due to traveling. Kalabaka and Meteora were a highlight for me. The Olive Farm and Cooking night were wonderful. Both the Santorini and Mykonos stays were wonderful. The optional catamaran excursion on Santorini was great.
This was a very good holiday. Our tour guide Peter was amazing, he was very knowledgeable, kind, thoughtful and made every effort to ensure all the group were able to enjoy the experience. Due to weather and other factors there was some switching about But this did not matter at all. The food and accommodation was also very good We were very lucky to have Peter Great guy
