Overall, this was one of the best trips ever. One suggestion I have, in the past the tour stared off with a tipping kitty that the CEO would collect at the beginning of the tour. Please bring the back. It is very confusing when the people on the tour must figure out how much to tip the drivers and other axillary staff. Please bring it back!!!!!!

Loved the tour & our tour leader (Marty) was fantastic. We enjoyed every part of this tour from the history, the relics, museums, guided tours. The Monasteries of Meteora & the small town of Kalampaka were something else & the amazing day trips from the beautiful islands where we swam from the boat & from the gorgeous beaches was yet another highlight. This tour went way beyond our expectations & I would highly recommend.
We got so much more out of it than what we expected for such good value. Matt is a very intelligent, helpful, professional and diplomatic tour leader and we wish him well for any of his future plans. The coach driver Babios was superb as was the coach.

Our tour was well planned with variety and interesting points of interest. Everything was done top notch. Travel Director was amazing. Had incredible knowledge, and was so personable and the driver provided us with safe transportation. Thank you for making our vacation so special.
This experience felt too short, which I always think is the sign of a good trip. It made me feel connected to the Greek culture, and our shared global history. I hope to go back in the not too distant future and maybe even go skiing in Greece.

This was my first tour with Explore and it was simply awesome. One thing the Tour Leader did was ask if he wanted to make dinner reservations for the group. This was a great way of bonding people, and we all became good friends.
I was most impressed with the archeological sites, where Guides provided us with detailed information. One thing I've been talking to friends about was how our everyday words came from Greek, such as stadium came from a word that meant stand. Those little gems sparkled as we walked through the Gymnasium in Olympia.
