Tour was wonderful. Enjoyed the evening of local folk dancing, pastry making and demo of clay making. The museums were excellent. I also enjoyed the sail boat ride to several Greek Islands. The only negative was the hotel in Naxos. Moldy bathroom and too far from town. Tour manager was very knowledgeable and did an excellent job of showing us all aspect of Greece.
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.

This trip is a fantastic way to see a lot of the country in a short amount of time. I loved the sights and the pace. Our guide and our driver were both amazing. The guide provided lots of information and really went out of his way to make sure we were having a wonderful experience throughout the trip. There were optional excursions as well, like a visit to an oasis, a visit to the Star Wars village, and a camel ride in the desert. The three of us in our group chose to do all of the optional trips, and we enjoyed them a lot. I'd recommend going on any optional trips that are offered--the cost is reasonable, and it's a great way to see even more. We also had a bit of time on our own, too, so that was nice. I'd recommend this tour to anyone who is planning a visit to Tunisia. The mix of sights is great, and you will get a nice overview of a lovely country!

This tour was amazing. Lots to see and do. But what really made this trip exceptional was the staff. The tour guide, Abder, was amazing. He constantly went above and beyond to meet our needs and make sure we were having a great time. He was kind, patient, and has a real passion for what he does. Also has a great sense of humor. I would also like to commend our driver, Abdul. He was kind and hospitable. Drove safely and has a great sense of humor too. All in all, the food, staff, people, culture, and country was great.

Good introductory cross-section in major cities. Good balance of scheduled vs. free time. Would like a little more emphasis on art--especially Uffizi Gallery and Pisan Camposanto--plus entry into St. Mark's/Doge's Palace and Duomo church (rather than some of the shopping stuff). A little too much commercial, too little history/art. (Some of guides under-informed, including one who said Galileo discovered the "two planets" around Jupiter!).
