Mainland Greece Tours & Trips
Imagine walking into Epidaurus ancient theatre where the acoustics still work perfect. Greece’s mainland doesn't mess around with history. Meteora's monasteries balance on rock pillars that seem impossible, Olympia shows you where the Games actually began, and Delphi spreads its ruins across a mountainside. Nafplio's harbor area invites wandering, and Athens' Acropolis dominates exactly like it should.

Very well organized and tour director was excellent. My concern was that there were so many people from different hotels which took so long to pick up and drop off. Also another group joined us half way and the bus was packed and made it so hard visiting the sites which were so packed with people and tourists. The group should have been smaller. Also some of the hotels were not that great which was disappointing as in the past TourRadar had excellent hotels.
8-Day Group Tour: Ancient Greece, Acropolis & Saronic IslandsI really enjoyed the private 13 days Greece tour. All went smoothly from the pick up from the Athens airport to departure. The problem I had was Gotours 4 days tour. The first day of 3 star hotel was very bad. Food and room were not good. The guide from 4 days tour dropped us on the 4 way
Ancient Sites, Santorini & Mykonos: 13-Day Greece Group TourThe tour was very good, the guide and driver were both excellent. The time spent at some of the places was perhaps a bit short, but just about OK (and probably necessary because of the amount of driving time needed to get between the different locations). All the hotels were nice and the breakfast and dinner buffets were good quality. The restaurants used for lunch were all OK (if unremarkable). Overall I very much enjoyed the tour and would be happy to recommend it.
