Our 7 Day trip mid October 2025 tour guide was Oskan and our driver Mr Ramsey the tour exceeded our expectations. We were quite anxious about the long distances to drive but the driver,the bus and our extremely polite and sincere host was a huge blessing. He was always more than polite and funny! We got a surprise from Oskan everyday! Even played a game in the bus and won prizes. We will really recommend this tour and company. The stops were well planned with good food and clean facilities. Hotels were good. Well done!Show more

  Traveler•Written March 2026
  Thank you e can skip Split? In Athens will we see the Parthenon? Also can you include Cappadocia in Turkey, and can we stay in the Cave hotel? What is a cave hotel? Is Cappadocia interesting - in understanding Turkey? Also can we start this private trip on July 19th instead? What time on the 19th do we have to be there?
- GrecaOperator•Written March 2026
  Yes, absolutely! Your private city tour of Athens will include the Acropolis, where you will visit the Parthenon. We can certainly skip Split. This allows us to move more quickly from Zagreb to Dubrovnik (approx. 6 hours by private transfer) to make room for Turkey. Cappadocia is famous for its "fairy chimneys" and soft volcanic rock. For centuries, locals carved homes and churches into these formations. Today, many have been converted into boutique hotels. Staying in one offers a unique atmosphere with natural climate control (cool in summer, warm in winter) and stunning stone architecture, it is truly a "once-in-a-lifetime" experience. It is essential for understanding Turkey beyond the city life of Istanbul. It offers a glimpse of the most unique geology on Earth. It's also the premier spot for the iconic sunrise hot air balloon flights. Since this is a private trip, your start time is flexible. However, we recommend arriving in Zagreb by the afternoon on July 19th so you can rest before the tour begins the following morning. Your private driver will be waiting at the airport regardless of your flight arrival time.

  Traveler•Written February 2026
  What time do the tours start each morning? What is the travel time of each day of the tour? Do you also have a tour between Split and Athens? It is faster for me to fly from sfo to split than to Zagreb. We would like to minimize travel time during this trip.
- GrecaOperator•Written February 2026
  I recommend a domestic flight from Split to Zagreb instead of the 6-hour train journey. This would significantly minimize your travel time. Your visit to Athens follows your stay in Dubrovnik. Therefore, we will be booking your flight to Greece directly from Dubrovnik, not Split. Could you please confirm your preferred hotel category? I have based the current plan on 3-star accommodations—does that align with your expectations?
