This holiday surpassed my expectations mainly due to the way that Angeliki at the tour operator produced a bespoke itinerary which allowed us to have a great experience at the additional sites that we wanted to visit. In addition Dimitris was always on hand to make sure that we wanted for nothing even going as far as selecting a local bakery and supermarket for our unique needs. His knowledge of his country, easy manner and good communication with the local guides made for a superb experience ...read more

Every visit during our four-day stay was memorable because William shares so kindly his immense knowledge on Greek history, culture, languages (old and modern), and society. He speaks to lines of questioning with depth, humility, and humour. A good and unexpected surprise in this archaeological tour was to see giant Caretta turtles, an endangered species, in the harbour of Kyparissia, where William kindly drove us after a visit.read more
