Greece Family Travel Review: Rhodes, Crete, Santorini, Athens, Delphi, Meteora, Jewish Heritage, Local Cuisine, Private Tours

  Please look no further for the trip of your dreams.  This travel agency took care of every single detail.  I mean EVERY detail.  Irene and her team are incredible.  Our family traveled from Florida to Greece in April 2023.  We went to Rhodes, Crete, Santorini, Athens, Delphi, and Meteora. 
     Our family of 4 adults travelled in private luxury vehicles, spent our nights in private luxury villas, and boutique hotels, and private guided tours of the beautiful ancient ruins, cities, towns, and countryside villages.  We specifically requested to stay in the historic districts, and we were not disappointed with our accommodations.  Irene and her team looked after every small detail.  
     We were particularly interested in the Jewish Heritage of Greece and the Aegean Islands.  Irene arranged private tour guides who spoke very clear English, and who had knowledge of the Jewish Heritage of the places we visited.  
     Some of our favorite places and things were: 
Meteora:  to say amazing does this place no service.  It is just breathtaking and should be a world wonder.  Our tour guide had incredible and in-depth knowledge of the monasteries/nunneries.   She was very patient with us as there were very many stairs at all the Monasteries.  Although I am not Orthodox Christian in my beliefs, these structures sitting atop monoliths were impressive.  
Chania, Crete:  This is a beautiful seaside city with a rich and ancient heritage.  The food was incredible, and the people friendly.  There is much to see and do, or just stroll along the promenade and restaurant hop.  While visiting Crete, Irene arranged for us to tour a Olive Oil Production and plantation.  The tour was so wonderful, don't miss out on trying the food at their little cafe.  
Athens:  History, history, history.  If you love ancient history, Christian history, Greek mythological history, you will LOVE Athens!!!!!  So much to see and do!!!! You will not run out of ancient sites to tour.  If you are a museum lover, as I am, then do not miss the Acropolis Museum.  New, modern, and WOW!
Lastly, I would be remiss not to give a special mention to some of the amazing team members with the travel agency who made our stay especially seamless: 
Thank you for everything.  Thank you to our guide for meeting us at the airport in Athens, making sure we were well cared for, and checking up on us throughout our trip. 
And to our driver, thank you for all the miles you drove us.  Teaching us all the history of your beautiful and ancient country.   You were always courteous, accommodating, and a real pleasure to spend so much time with.  It was obvious by your conversations with us how much you love your country and heritage.  It was such a pleasure to meet you.  
Traveling with our family is always complicated, and the company helped us with all the bumps in the road.  We are forever grateful for our experience with this company and would recommend to anyone looking for a highly reputable company who delivers what they say they will.  
Irene and her team are absolutely, hands-down, the best!
