Travel Review: Luxury Greece & Turkey Vacation, Athens, Crete, Santorini, Istanbul, Cappadocia, Ephesus, Cave Hotel Stay

Our European ravel company planned an extraordinary customized trip to Turkey (Istanbul, Cappadocia, & Ephesus) and Greece (Athens, Santorini, & Crete). From the outset our agent, warm and exuberant, listened carefully to our personal travel wants and needs and designed a trip that was ideal for us. Throughout our travels--including a call for help when our international flight was delayed--our agent provided quick and effective responses to our email messages. Our four-star boutique hotels were welcoming, warm and friendly places that, when you returned after a day of exploring, made you feel you had arrived “home”.  The agencies that the travel company subcontracted with for drivers and private tour guides didn’t miss a beat; always communicative and on-time. Each and every guide in Turkey and Greece was knowledgeable about the sites they took us to, responsive to our questions, and was willing to entertain our inquiries about culture, religion, and politics.  Every guide gave us more time than initially scheduled! Our only regret is that we were not able to time our travel to Santorini so that we could meet our agents in person!
