Travel Review: Tailor-Made Greece Vacation Package, Athens, Peloponnese, Santorini, Cape Sounion Tour,...

Recently (9/27-10/10/11) a friend and I took a long anticipated trip to Greece. Our trip included three days in Athens, a 4-day tour of the Pelopenese and central Greece, and three days in Santorini, with two returns to Athens. I searched a long time to find a travel agent and finally settled on Anthony at this Greek travel agency. I selected this agency because of Anthony’s quick responses to my questions and because the trip he recommended met all of our needs and was a great value for the money. The best move I made was selecting Anthony. He is the ‘Superman’ of travel agents!! Following are a few examples of the service we received from Anthony and this agency: There was a taxi strike the day we arrived; we received a last minute email from Anthony, informing us that a private car would pick us up. Which it did, and not only took us to our hotel, but gave us a brief tour of the city en- route. Upon arrival at our hotel, we received a folder outlining our trip and containing all the vouchers for our tours, hotels etc. That evening Anthony arrived at our hotel to share a glass of wine and spend a pleasant hour with us reviewing details and answering all our questions, including recommendations of where to shop and restaurants. On our four-day tour there was one hotel that had not received good reviews, Anthony arranged for us to stay at a different hotel for that one night. Incidentally, our guide for the four days was a gentleman called Amelio whose knowledge and detail with respect to the ancient sites and the mythology associated with ancient Greece was absolutely fantastic. This tour was titled, Classic Greek tour. As we were returning to Athens on the bus from our 4-day tour, the guide brought his cell phone to us, and it was Anthony on the phone. We were supposed to take a flight to Santorini the next day, however, there was an air controller strike planned. Anthony had arranged alternative, ferry tickets, business class, and a private driver to take us to the ferry. When we arrived at our hotel in Athens the tickets were waiting for us. The ferry ride was a nice break and our Santorini experience was lovely. We took a lovely full day tour with Water Blue, that Anthony recommended. We flew back to Athens for our return to the states. As we had an early flight, Anthony had booked us at the airport Sofitel Hotel (what a lovely and hassle free way to end our trip). If you are planning a trip to Greece….You cannot do better than to have Anthony and this Greek agency make your arrangements for a top quality experience and most excellent service!!!!!
