  Dimos was an excellent and knowledgeable Tour Leader. He made sure we enjoyed the tour. He also worked hard of finding replacements for excursions that were cancelled due to “end of season”.Show more

  Long review so people know what it's like. If you have a basic knowledge of how to book a holiday yourself, you should do it instead of going on this tour. Basically nothing is included except accommodation and the ferries between the islands, and we had a particularly bad tour leader who didn't even bother with most of the orientation tours except the one in Athens. The hotels were nice, they were a bit out of the main areas but we knew that would be the case and there was still a bus nearby to get us into the main area - but I could have booked it myself. I could have booked the ferries too. There are literally no activities included, so if you didn't pay the overpriced optional excursions you'd have to find your own way to the touristy areas. I signed up for all 3 optionals in Mykonos and Santorini. The Rhenia and Delos cruise is worth doing but you're paying €100 when literally at the stand advertising it, it's €85. What's worse is our tour leader treated it like a personal holiday, she was off swimming and drinking without a care in the world. The €140 day tour was 100% not worth it at all. We went to a lot of free areas, a really bad beach, and tasted 3 wines. And then we were hissed at by the TL to tip the local guide even after paying the huge tour cost. And finally the Caldera boat tour. Be warned that it's a crammed boat with lots of people not from different groups (so was the first boat trip) and to go onto the actual caldera is €5 not included in the price you pay to the TL. We also went to the hotel springs, except I was one of the last people to get in the water that I think I had 30 seconds in the actual hot springs before we were told to come back - no opportunity to get in the mud for me! To make this trip worse, we were told we had to pay for a bunch of public transport that we shouldn't have - that has now been sorted by Expat and I should be getting a refund. If they tell you to pay for buses on non-free days, contact expat because you shouldn't be. Despite my negative review, I did have some good times on the Islands but I really do not think this is value for money which is what I look for in an Expat tour. Also, most other Expat tours have almost half of dinners provided, this one had only 1 in Athens, which I'm guessing is because the price of meals (and everything else) in the Greek Islands is €€€€Show more

  We loved the tour of the Greek islands. In future we suggest that the tour details be emailed earlier, like a week before the trip at the very least. And the tour leader should set up a group chat eg WhatsApp and send the daily times and schedule out that way. It could be used to announce birthdays daily weather etc. I know not everyone uses WhatsApp but those few who’s phones don’t have the capability can be advertised via text or verbally. We feel there was a lack of information on this tour. The last hotel we stayed at was very close to the airport and very loud. The first hotel in Athens was the worst hotel we have ever stayed in Europe. We also believe that the tour is falsely advertised. The first day was non existent. We met the tour group at 10am on the second day. The last day is also non existent. We headed to the airport at 6.30am. The tour should be advertised as a 6 day tour not 8.Show more
