Early in the morning, one of our private vehicles will be waiting for you with our assistant. We will transfer to the port of Piraeus. There we will board a ferry to the famous island of Mykonos. It is said that the meaning of the name of this island is connected with the hero “Mykono”, son of the luminous god Apollo, so it could be interpreted as “place of light”. Upon our arrival in Mykonos, one of our representatives will be waiting for us to welcome us, transfer us to our hotel and explain a bit more about the island. We will have the rest of the day free to start relaxing and living the “slow life” that the friendly islanders maintain.
Free day to enjoy this magnificent island. Mykonos is the meeting point of the international jet set. This is due to its wonderful beaches, exclusive stores and unbeatable nightlife. All this contributes to its well-deserved fame. The island's cuisine is fundamentally Mediterranean, which makes vegetables and olive oil a basic part of the daily menu, as well as certain spices (oregano, basil, among others) and, on many occasions, fish and seafood.
After a relaxed and tasty breakfast, one of our vehicles will pick us up at the agreed time. We will head to the port: our next destination is the island of Santorini. The ferry ride is the ideal time to photograph the city of Fira, capital of the island. Its beauty has been an inexhaustible source of inspiration. In the distance, its white houses stand out on the cliff overlooking the volcano. Upon arrival, our Spanish-speaking representative will welcome us. We will transfer to our hotel and receive information about this picturesque island. We will have the rest of the day at leisure to continue strolling through its narrow streets. Greca Tip: Enjoy one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world from one of the many candlelit cafes overlooking the caldera.
Free day on this magical island, considered by many to be the lost continent of Atlantis, to discover it at your own pace. The name of the island is the deformation of the name given to it in the Middle Ages by Venetian merchants. They called it Saint Irene, because she was the patron saint of the island. In 1576 Santorini became part of the Duchy of Naxos, until the Turkish conquest of Piyale Pasha. Optionally, and if weather conditions permit, we can purchase a dazzling sailboat ride that visits the small islands located inside the caldera, Nea and Palea Kameni. There, the hot springs of green and yellow waters are located. Throughout the tour, the city of Fira will accompany us as a faithful witness from the height. Greek Tip: We recommend using this day to explore the island in more depth and taste its wines and excellent local cuisine.
At the appointed time, our staff will transfer us to the new port of Santorini, Athinios, to start the return trip to Athens. After the arrival of the ferry, our trip will end at the port of Piraeus.
The coordination of the tours, transfers and hotel accommodations were excellent. Every time I tried to contact them for a question, they replay within minutes. Everyone that helps us with the planning and along the way was very friendly and attentive.
The Greca tours makes sure they get the money for the Greece tour. Once you are there they deal with many oher operatros, transfers company, tours agencies, so you cannot deal with Greca. the hotel in Mikonos was deserted and in the middle of nowhere. I ended up changing and paying again for another hotel in downtonw of the same category. It is almost impossible to reach them once in Greece. Then, once they reply the phone they say I am not Greca tours.Not happy at all.No communications. I must say the hotel was beacutiful but in a deserted area. I have contacted them and got another email. Waiting
We had looked forward to visit Santorini but the ferry canceled. As a result, we were forced to pay an additional €574 in hotel expenses plus new ferry tickets. Viator failed to take any responsibility and always blames its subcontractors which are equally useless. In the future if you’re interested in the Greek islands, please consider taking a cruise ship instead.
Excellent service! Everything was perfectly coordinated. The guides were very friendly. Paula did an excellent job in Athens, Demetrio in Meteora and Eduardo in Santorini. They were all very knowledgeable about history, very patient and had a good sense of humor. The transfers with Bill were very pleasant, and the communication with Victor on WhatsApp was very very fast and agile. I highly recommend this company!
They were always screwing up our bookings and we had to email back and forth as they had very poor grasp of English and just kept sending us standard answers. The frustration of communicating with them via email or long distance calls to them just keep giving me a headache that kept my blood pressure up. We paid for a 4 Star package but the hotels that they provided were poor in features or locations that seems dodgy or unsafe. Every time we emailed them that the hotel that they provided was in a unsafe area, their alternative was no better or could be even worse. So we had no choice but to go with their recommendation as we had paid them in full for them to start securing our tour program. Honestly, we (there were 8 of us) felt cheated as we had opted for a 4 Star hotel stay but were given between 1.5 to 2 Star standard. Not a tour company to buy from or to trust with your money. They deal with many operators and just take whatever profits from customers with little care for value to our holiday experience. I would not go back to Greece again unless I do it in a cruise ship which much much safer and better experience.
First group bus tour we’ve ever taken and we were really happy with it. Loved the guide: Andronikos was great! He was knowledgeable about the sites and easy-going. We met some fun people who we will keep in touch with. The only drawback was that the 4 star hotels were usually not in the town center. If you want to be in the middle of things, consider the 3 star or coordinate with the office to double-check.
Fabulous Experience with GREECA Tours. A very well managed Trip by Guide Avi. The Classic 4 Day tour included what was all required to be covered. Had a Memorable trip with my Family.
1. The transfers and transportation were always excellent and on time. Clean cars and very friendly and attentive drivers. 2. Ferry: the scheduled services were not fast ferry, as indicated on my voucher. On my return from Santorini to Athens, it took me 7 hrs to arrive. Having options in 4hrs (fast ferry) and 1 hr (plane). The same thing happened on my transfer from Athens to Mykonos, where it took me 4hrs when there were options of 2.5hrs. 3. Hotels: -Mykonos hotel was good, comfortable, and quite well located. Although it was not on the beach, it was easy to access. -Santorini hotel, the hotel was located 10-15 minutes walking to the beach, on a lonely and dark route at night. Additionally, judging by the facilities, it seemed more like a hostel. The room was very basic, a bit old, and there were items that looked old (chairs, rusty bathtub, etc.). The breakfast was not good either, very basic and of low quality. The restaurant closed at 6pm, so one day I couldn't even have dinner, and honestly, I felt unsafe walking in that area alone at night. I checked the prices of hotels facing the sea and there were options between 130-170 euros per night. It didn't seem expensive to me at all. And when reporting my dissatisfaction to the agency, they simply said that nothing could be done. Conclusion, I would not recommend this agency since the issue with the hotel in Santorini and ferries caused me a lot of stress and wasted time. The idea of hiring expert personnel is to look for the best options and/or offer alternatives to travel in a comfortable, safe, and satisfactory way. They should review their providers and/or personnel in charge so that they really offer convenient options to travelers. Losing 8hrs on a trip of this category is unacceptable. Price paid: 1,400 euros for 4 nights, transfers to the port and ferries (no tour was included)
Very good agency, very attentive and complied with everything agreed. The only negative comment is that the Mykonos hotel was away from everything, very nice hotel, but the location is terrible. Otherwise, everything ok
I bought the Ottoman Tour. (TURKEY AND GREECE 15 days) The places are wonderful. If you choose the 3-star category, be prepared to stay in hotels that are not even that category. They are a team that doesn’t know how to manage, doesn’t know how to solve unexpected problems, they live by looking at you when you have a consultation or problem and waste valuable time. They even made me call a phone because they didn’t want to answer. Instead of Whatsapp, they tell you: call the emergency phone, and since it only has a phone instead of a chat that allows you to connect to any whatsapp, I have to pay now USD 20 that I lost calling them!! In Athens, they forgot (SE O L V I D A R O N) to pick me up and I lost my tour to the Partenon. They had time to sort it out, but instead they avoided answering, to the point that I threatened to go to the office (I was just in Athens) and make a fuss. or call the police. a lack of suitability and total judgment. They're not tourist agents. They're salespeople, that's all they care about: hooking up with the tour and then, to your fate. The connecting transports from one point to another caused me to lose 3 whole days, because the schedules were in the afternoon or noon. t you lost take advantage of the origin and when you arrived at destination, little and nothing could be done. so, 3 days I lost. 3 days out of 15. I had to battle to get the money I paid for the Acropolis tour back, and I also demanded compensation. Anyway, the damage couldn't be compensated for by anything. The only one that stands out is the Guide in Turkey, which was very good. It's apart from how bad Greca is. I will never hire you again and warn you: if you want a trip full of complications and mistakes (in Athens I learned that something similar had happened to me and that you had come to the head office to make a fuss), take a chance. Then don't say I didn't warn you. They are EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL. Never greca again!
The only good thing the hotel in Athens. The rest a disaster: disorganized transfers and excursions. In Mikonos and Santorini we were sent to beach hotels in times of NO beach, no one, far from the center....then they tell me to have ordered sooner in places that I don't even remember the name. Gentlemen we went to meet; advise, do not send places away within an hour of the center. We traveled twice a year and tried this time with Greca, they seemed interesting packages. Never again! We never did so bad!!!!
Good guide, excellent and responsible drivers, good for the selected places to eat. If I returned I would always choose category 4 hotels, the one in Kalambaca was quite poor, but it was my choice.
I found it to be a very good and instructive excursion. The driver, very good. And the guide Estella, simply spectacular and wonderful. Totally attentive to the group, with extraordinary kindness and with great knowledge, passion and wisdom in his presentation.
It has been one of the most beautiful trips of my life. I got to know the depths of Greece with a guide passionate about history and a properly planned tour. Of course as a tourist you would like more time in each place, but it is also a bit complicated if you take into account the dynamics of the route and you want to reach all the scheduled activities. Regarding the hotels, I booked 3 stars and the establishments met expectations (my favorite was Olimpia) and the full board also seemed sufficient for the entire trip. As for the points to visit, they are all very beautiful but Meteora is one of the experiences that, if you are in Greece, you cannot miss: one of the most beautiful places I have seen in my life and that I will remember forever.
Excellent tour. The Georgias (Gogo) guide is wonderful. Thanks to her training – she has a Bachelor of Arts in Archaeology – we managed to get to know and discover the history and art of Greece, going with her to the archaeological sites and museums was a complete discovery. Very good meals, hotels and the bus driver. Highly recommended.
Comfortable way to get to know classical Greece, approaching by bus to the site of interest and with a guide in Spanish. The Gogó guide was very correct and professional in its explanations and the Yanik driver demonstrated great dexterity and smoothness in his driving. The only regular food and accommodation
We hired a 4-day classified circuit trip and then we were in Mykonos, Santorini and Crete with Greca. It was many days and we had a wonderful time. There were only a few details, such as a hotel that had to be changed overnight due to COVID cases, but it was fixed in the moment. With regard to hotels, only two were lower than the average, those in Olympia and Kalambaka. The others met our expectations.In the islands the hotels were in all three cases in the best location, which if we had to choose them we would not have done so. All the staff were very friendly, especially during the classic circuit.
I feel ripped off and I'm still waiting two months for the financial compensation I was promised
Visit Athens, Olympia, Mykinos, Santorini and the Meteora convents, the experience with GRECA.CO, was excellent, they fulfilled everything agreed, 12 wonderful days as well as everything I knew in GREECE, 100% recommended.
The language is very important and we had an excellent guide, the trip to the sites that made the monasteries all beautiful were essential , the history and culture I enjoyed with my children in March 2020 Our, guide a lady knowledgeable of her work, empathetic and very cordial, the relationship between her clients excellent, it is a shame I do not remember her name perhaps HELENA but if I know that she is from Greece who lived in Spain The food and the 5 star hotels......all great, I invested my money very well
Nice trip with a great guide, Helena who made us transport ourselves to the past. 4 star hotels in terms of size and pool (although it wasn't time to enjoy them) but with very good breakfast and dinner. The meals of the excursion very well except the last one on the way to Athens, in Kaleki Village, which went quite badly. Expectations were met
Poor tour with very poor hotels. Poorly organized activities, with long waits and wrongly planned times. Breakfast and dinner were not typical of a 3-star hotel. The guide, although professional, became heavy. She was very repetitive and annoyed if you were critical of her or asked her to be flexible. Still, he was nice in the deal. They'd take us to lunch places you did or did have to eat. It could be seen that they had commissions for these services. For 2 times, we went to one that the food was terrible (losc2 last days) with expensive prices. All very regrettable. We went with Greca Tours, but they brought us together with people from Civitatis and others. In the end, the coach was crawling: 47 out of 56 places, although they will later tell you that they could reach 85% due to Covid. It was, but they should be more considerate in this respect, but Business is Bussiness. The 3-star hotels didn’t measure up: old, you look dirty, animal droppings on the windows, half-broken towels... We complained and tried to fix it, but not enough. I would not recommend travelling with GRECA Tours. Not at all.
The places you visit are for me essential if you like classical culture, spectacular sites in Delphi and Olympia, the mysteries of Epidaurus and Mycenae, the very high monasteries of Meteora, and my favorite mini stop, the statue to Leonidas in Thermopylae (to put a paste, a stop too short). Great guide Magdalena, always trying to reveal curiosities and delve into myths and history telling curiosities from all over Greece. The pickup was a little chaos because they were late, and that's a little scary, but really recommended, great.
They were 4 wonderful days touring the most beautiful places in Greece, getting to know their culture and visiting amazing places. Georgina or "Gogo" guide is the best. Always with precise indications and attentive to all requirements, very professional. A separate paragraph for the bus driver, Mr. Costas, also very professional and willing to collaborate in everything.
