Doing what: 4-Day Classical Greece Tour: Epidaurus, Mycenae, Olympia, Delphi, Meteora
This is a great tour with beautiful vistas along the way. Some of the rides were long due to the distances but the breaks were timely and our guide, George, provided lots of information along the way and the folks in my group were all very friendly. Sufficient guided and free time was spent at each site. We stayed overnight at the Amelia Hotel just outside the city of of Nafplio for the next day's visit to Delphi. We got to roam around Napflio but not to hike up to the castle of Palamidi or the castle of Bourtzi. Neither were part of the itinerary but I would have loved the opportunity to be able to visit both. Meterora is so worth the long ride and the extra day. My group stayed at the Amelia Hotel at each location. The only disappointment was not having enough time to enjoy the hotels at each location, that's how beautiful they are. Our guide was very thoughtful and arranged for the pool to remain open later on the evenings we arrived close the pool closing time. The food was good throughout the trip and the bus very comfortable.

Aside from the website listing a hotel as a pickup point when it wasnt and I had to take a public bus to a different hotel (taxi's were on strike) this was a fabulous tour and I highly recommend it. George, the tour guide was extremely knowlegable and a lot of fun

We loved this tour! Our guide was excellent and knew so much about ancient Greece and modern Greece! The timing of the trip was good and the many hours on the bus felt less with 'coffee stops' every few hours. If you have limited time in Greece and want to see ruins, small towns, and the monasteries, this is the best way to do it!!!

It was incredible. The bus driver was awesome, the tour guide was the best, so knowledgeable and full of stories about the history and mythology. The accommodation was very nice and plan of the tour was great. I could not have asked for any more, it was so good.

Great trip!! Many long hours on a bus, but many frequent stops to break it up. I traveled with my 11m old baby and she did GREAT considering how long she was on the bus for. There were so many things to see, I didn't even realize to what extent, so I am very pleased that I went on this tour. Out tour guide was probably one of thee most intelligent men, history wise, I have seen in a long time. Great knowledge and background everywhere we went. The hotels we stayed in (not first class) were stunning. I was over impressed! Lunches on the tour are not included. We were even taken to a few special places that were not included in the tour. Such as, stopping to see a pottery shop that had been in the family for all their lives. I got myself an authentic hand made piece of pottery! Hotel pick up and drop off was nice. I was slightly confused in the beginning, since we had to transfer buses twice in the trip. All in all, I would highly recommend this tour! It's long enough, but not to long!!

It was a great experience. The best thing about the trip was our guide Lila. she was knowledgeable,extremely professional and above all had a passion for what she was doing. She enjoyed her work and made it a very memorable experience for us. We were a small group and had great fun. The hotel Amalia chain, where we stayed every night, had nice comfortable and well appointed rooms except for Meteora- but I understand that this was a remote area. The bus was very comfortable and the food was great (I am a vegetarian-sonormally get the short endof the stick on these trips). In short I felt taken care of. Bravo Lila- you were simply the best!

Super guide, John, really knew his stuff and could answer all our questions, and then some! Good mix of stuff to see as an introduction to Classical Greece! Nafplion was only a 10 minute photo-stop, but the rest were really informative and altogether a great experience.

Perfect trip for me. Expect some time on the bus, but the stops are great, though some thought too short. Not for me. If you can take it with Iannis (sp) as a guide, even better. Perfect companion for his knowledge, enthusiasm and entertainment.

So glad we did this trip. Comfortable bus, incredible guide and very safe driver. A great mix of driving, walking, and wandering in museums. It needs to be said that Greece is not an easy country for elderly or disabled people. If you want to take this tour be sure you can manage steps and walking up hills. An elderly couple on our trip found the trip interesting but too tiring We loved the trip though!

We enjoyed the pace and offerings of the Viator tour. Accomodations we more than acceptable and our guide gave participants enough time on their own at sites not to feel rushed or hurried. The value was excellent, Viator's US dollar price being an excellent bargain. The free upgrade in room class was an added bonus. We'd easily go again!

Excellent trip with world class highlights at Delphi and Meteora. Expect some long drives, but scenery is beautiful and mountainous. Included is some free time to do your own thing, a well balanced tour. Guides are good, enthusiastic and well organised.
