Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

Irene and her team were fantastic and I'd use them again and recommend them to others. Irene and two of her colleagues actually met us at the airport, provided us with updates, gave us a phone to use to not only call if we had any questions (which we did once and she did answer on the first try) and with a real-time update to our schedule. For example, one of our ferry trips was delayed by 45 minutes and we were updated so that we could stay on a tour a bit longer. The trip had everything as promised. The travel agency surprised us with some outstanding accomodations, one being a villa in Santorini which was a highlight for our family. Also, they included a number of dinners in our package and we always had one of the best tables in the house with terrific and enormous amounts of food.

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

there were six of us. we agreed that the villa in Santorini was the best experience as it came mid-way through out trip and we enjoyed hanging out at it the entire day enjoying the amazing view of the caldera. Other memorable parts were (1) the Delphi tour with our guide, the seven villages foraging tour with our guide on Naxos and the Parthenon and museum tour in Athens. We also all liked our guides in Crete and in Santorini. we liked the platinum seating on the ferry trips.

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

I have the least helpful answer here...not much. it was what we wanted. One thing is that Knossos was a bit of a let down and it may have been better if we had gone to the Knossos Museum to get a better overall view as we had done in Delphi. One thing the travel agency might want to think about is a Greek timeline of the areas guests are visiting to place each place in history like to highlight the Knossos is far older than the Parthenon and that Heraklion was occupied by the Italians for hundreds of years before the Ottomans. for me, anyway, that would have been helpful to prepare guests for what they will see and create interesting discussions with the tour guides.
