Customer Reviews
Really interesting trip to learn about Greek history, culture, and food!
This was a short trip with a jam packed itinerary, which made it good value for money. It was a great way to see the main sites in Greece like, Athens, Meteora and Delphi . It was a smaller group than most Europe Contiki trips which was nice as everyone got to get to know one another. Everything was an included activity. The local guides were all very good. Meteora was incredible. The included visit to the bee farm was a pleasant surprise and actually one of the best experiences in the trip. The included meals were ok and the one in Meteora was very average where our dessert option was an apple from a fruit basket!
