Greece Self-Guided Tours and Trips

The hotels were great and well located. The hiking was challenging. The navigation worked well most of the time. Andros was a beautiful place and well worth visiting. Recommend staying in Rafina the first night and taking the ferry the following morning. Otherwise it is a very long travel day.

This was a fantastic experience. This was the first time we used them, the first time we were in Greece and the first time we did an active hiking trip and it exceeded our expectations. Organization and communication from the team was excellent. Everything was on time, well organized and as described. All the hotels that we stayed at were excellent in comfort and location, a few of them had amazing views from our room balcony and all of them were close to the beach and to great dinner options. They were also flexible with us making adjustments in pick-up location in Athens in the beginning of the trip and changing ferry time to accommodate our preferences. Andros was a great place to visit - beautiful island with great food and friendly people. There are so many hiking trails and they all are well marked and well maintained. We hope to be back. We are also planning to book other trips with them.

Our visit to Crete was definitely our Top 3 Hiking Tours (Mt Blanc and Portugal are runners up). The people are wonderful the food amazing. Fantastic routes and weather .

It was a great trip -- beautiful stone villages, friendly locals, tasty Greek meals, and very scenic walks every day. It was indeed physically challenging but well worth the effort!

we loved our Greece trip. Everything was very well planned and easy for us to negotiate. Hotels were excellent and the food was as well. Our planner, Leah was very timely with response to our pretrip questions. Looking forward to planning a second trip with you!

This was a remarkable rewarding adventure! I was impressed by the details that UTracks provided, from my first call with a friendly agent that knew all the trip details, through the last day of the actual trip. UTracks provided extreme detail about everything from preparation (give it 3 months ahead and make sure to train on steps or elevations) to expected taxi fares. Besides detailed route information, you will get descriptions of places to visit along the trails with bits of history and suggestions of local people to speak with. Everything promised for the trip went smoothly. The accommodations were outstanding, and each hotelier knew what we were doing and gave a few tips. Luggage transfers were perfect, and assistance with arranging taxis was helpful. Each of the 4 hoteliers were wonderfully welcoming and had the finest breakfast foods, much of it local and including something home-made at each location. The actual hiking was rewarding and challenging. A phone app was provided that was very useful. The app also has an emergency call option. Make sure your phone can do voice and SMS roaming in Europe. Many routes had multiple options, including some not mentioned in the overview. We took the shorter routes, but much longer adventurous routes were also included. Many of the hikes were very quiet with no other hikers seen. We did get opportunity to speak with a few locals, and that was great. The area around Chora (Andros) is becoming more popular and on those two days we did run into quite a few hikers from all over the world. The word is getting out that Andros is a great hiking destination. Go soon before everyone knows our secret!
