About me:I'm a Greek Aussie with huge passion for exploring the world and experiencing it with great people. I've been lucky enough to visit plenty of incredible places and love the opportunity to share what I've learnt along the way with wonderful passengers. I love sharing all my favorite things about Greece with my passengers. Seeing their faces as they bite into their first ever greek kebab (gyros) or dive off a boat into the turquoise Aegean sea or watching the famous sun set in Santorini makes my heart go OPA!!!

Lana was simply amazing. She really does care! Lana took us all over Greece with nothing but a huge smile and lots of helpful insight into the culture and even taught us how to speak to Greek.
Lana is amazing, so friendly and caring and made my trip as easy and enjoyable as possible!!
I’d give her six stars out of five if I could :)

Every aspect of the trip ran smoothly from the ferry rides to the excursions.

Definitely not what I expected (that’s a good thing) and I had the best time with my new friends. We did the Flexi option and although I wish I had done a fixed (so I didn’t have to say goodbye to my favourite group so soon) it was still incredibly enjoyable. The accomodation was mostly comfortable although there was a couple which I can happily say I never want to see again (I’m looking at you paradise beach). The group leaders/tour guides were the highlight of the trip, always accommodating and happy to help out with whatever you need and incredibly fun to party with (Lana you know I’m talking about you

We didn’t know what to expect, the plan was to stick to ourselves, side by side. But by our second bus ride, J and I were sitting anywhere we liked, by ourselves if we were lucky, meeting others if we were luckier and making the most of our time during our travel – sleeping, talking to other travellers about where they had been, rehydrating after a night out, recording our adventures or writing postcards home. The user pays wifi meant that passengers would all end up talking to one another. Our guide was exceptional - we had Lana 5 out of our 6 stops. From the ice-breaker (‘what Lana wants’) right to our farewells in Nice, you could count on Lana for putting in 100% effort when planning your trip eg. food, bathroom and activities at stops, making it more comfortable and entertaining, and even leaving you be when hungover or sleepy. For planned meals, Lana would call ahead to check non tomato options as I had an allergy. She was a natural at her job, and what really stood out for me was when she gave us a free guided walking tour around Munich. J and I organised our own accommodation beforehand, but we stuck with the busabout bus stops as much as we could. The highlights were definitely the camping villages in Venice and Rome! The lowlight was the mixed hostel rooms in Vienna (Naschmarkt) for us due to an annoying traveller. I would recommend sorting your own accommodation in Vienna. Other than that early hiccup, we were very happy with our busabout experience, and would highly recommend it to any travellers who prefer a bit more independence and control over their overseas experience. The diving and caving in Barcelona is well worth it too!

She made our trip go from being great to out of this world. All those individual touches she added were over and beyond what we expected. Lana will have you on the floor crying with laughter as she turns boring history into something you will remember. The tour and activities were excellent but this a massive shout out to Lana. If you ever have the pleasure of being on one of her greek island tours you can guarantee an amazing time. Her ability to speak to the locals in their own language definately gives her tour groups the edge and getting those little extras can make your trip unforgettable. So yet again lana thank you so much for everything you truely are one in a million xx

She always goes above & beyond for each member of the group! She honestly made Greece my favourite place that I travelled too! Lana is one of the most kindest, funniest, selfless people I have ever met! Travelling around Italy & Spain with busabout, having many different guides, no one has & no one will ever compare to Lana. She is in my opinion (& I know many others) the best tour guide busabout has. Her caring nature allows you to feel comfortable entering the group. She is hilarious & just has the time of her life which makes the experience 10 times better.
