Which Country (Countries) did you visit on this trip?

Greece

Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

Zicasso’s travel company designed, organized, and coordinated a phenomenal and memorable trip to Greece.

The outstanding service started with listening to what I wanted from the trip and coming up with initial details, then making minor adjustments based on my feedback. Everything was top quality, including the special touch of having a birthday cake sent to the local restaurant where we went (based on our agent's suggestion) to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. There, we had some of the best Greek food of our two-week trip.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

Just about everything about the trip was memorable and enjoyable. We loved our time in Crete, where our travel agency arranged a walking tour, cooking class, and beach trip, all with wonderful drivers and guides. And of course, the special efforts they made to make my daughter’s 30th birthday a special and memorable one were very much appreciated.

Our hotels were always centrally located, which made it easy for us to wander around and explore on our own. From our hotel balcony in Santorini, we had an incredible view of the beautiful sunsets for which the island is known.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

I can't think of anything I would do differently. The trip was perfectly placed, including our travel company not scheduling anything on our arrival day. Because our hotel in Athens was centrally located, we were able to wander around and explore on our own.
