Smooth operation, guides are depending

Nanan7385

, Oct 2019

We joined 2 days tour. We traveled by bus with customers for one day tour then changed bus to continue our trip joining group of customers who were on 4 days tour. The overall operation was smooth and nice. However, we felt that the level of tour guides is really depending. The guide on the first bus from Athens to Delphi was good but the next guide from Delphi to Meteora then back to Athens was sort of insensitive. During the trip, I didn’t feel like I was her customer as she seemed wanting to concentrate on tour operation rather than taking care of customers.

Delphi and Meteora

A nice relaxing trip. Enjoyed all aspects especially once I was in a smaller group. I would have liked more time at Delphi. I had to give up seeing all of the outdoor sites to be able to spend time in the museum. I suggest missing the guides presentation (which was very interesting) if you want to see it all. Meteora was fascinating. Hotel and stops were great. Also would have appreciated info re dress codes prior to travelling.

Please improve the guide's English.

The guide's English was very poor. She has a lot of Greek ascent and I can hardly understand what she meant to say. I even heard of some other guides laughed at her pronunciation. Moreover, she seemed to be readi with difficulty on the coach when introducing the sites.

A little Disappointing

Angelica S

, Oct 2019

The trip on the whole was very good but quite a long way. We started the day by being picked up at 8am and travelling to Delphi with a local guide on board. We did stop a few times along the way for toilet stops. The guide stayed with us when we were in Delphi and was talking about the ruins but then left us to be on our own which didn't give us that much time to explore as we were taken to the 3rd level and needed to be back on the bus by a certain time. After Delphi we dropped off some people who were not doing the Meteora part and we got another guide. This guide was very hard to understand and made it very difficult to focus. We stayed at the hotel Amelia in Meteora which included a buffet dinner and the overnight stay with breakfast included. Hotel was comfortable and the restaurant meals were very good. The next day we went to Meteora. The weather was wet and this made it a little difficult to see the monasteries when the clouds move over. The monasteries have a very strict dress code, men must have long pants or shorts that cover the knees and women are to have their shoulders covered and can be allowed in with a shirt or dress providing their knees are covered. If a women wears pants they must get a wrap from the attendant. We visited 2 of the monasteries and the views were amazing and the monasteries themselves were very interesting but be prepared to climb a few steps. Overall it was a very nice place to visit but a very long day coming home.

2 Must-see's in Greece with all the work done for you

worldoverMaine

, Sep 2019

Most economical way to just sit back and enjoy the ride to 2 must-see sites if you visit Greece. The tour was very organized and included almost everything except lunch and tips. Our guide for Meteora was very personable and particularly informative even though I'd been there before. Our only criticism was that the stop at Delphi seemed rushed. There is so much to see. We had to run through the museum which we would have liked to spend more time in. Hopefully, another 30 to 45 minutes would have been just right. (NOTE: We speed walked up to the theater and stadium.) For anyone with reduced mobility, those 2 features would not have been possible if you stayed with the group to listen to the guide's tour of the site.

This is a great tour. Pick up was easy, the hotel and meals were great. The tours themselves were wonderful with great guides who really made it interesting and informative. The bus was really comfortable and we stopped every couple hours for a break. If you're in Athens I would highly recommend this tour to see the country side and these two amazing sites.
