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!

What a wonderful trip! This trip activity level is rated 3 of 4 (strenuous) so be prepared for lots of walking and hiking, although it is ALL very doable. We loved being on the highest mountain peaks, our local guides were knowledgeable and fun, and the towns we visited were quintessential Alps. Our tour guide and driver were so engaging and fun. And our group of 22 couldn’t have been better. We all had a blast. Highly recommend!
Versailles was a beautiful city, and the gardens and area was wonderful. We say the open markets with beautiful food for sale. The area had so many places we could walk to and explore. The palaces were over the top in elegance, and I can see why the poor French people were angry.

Very fast paced. Unfortunately, we arrived at some destinations at night, so sight seeing/picture taking was limited. All hotels, with the exception of the one in Greece, were very good. The one in Greece smelled very bad, had no shower head, I had to go down to the reception to request light bulbs.
Bus was very comfortable, sights were wonderful. Rumi, the tour guide is amazing. She made the trip.
Overall, wonderful experience

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!
