What people love about Island Hopping Tours in Western Europe
- Vacations in Greece - 9 Days - Athens, Paros, Naxos, Santorini
I was captivated by the beauty of Santorini and the urban diversity of the Athens City Center. The transfers guides and assistants always on time. Elias the Assistant gave me his WhatsApp and gave me answers to a few questions I had. Thank you guys.
- Athens - Mykonos - Santorini- Crete
Athens and the Greek Islands Tour is fascinating. The trip ran as exactly as described except for a late transfer in Mykonos. It was our first trip with Eskapas but won't be the last one for sure. The islands were absolutely gorgeous and the hotels were nice too. We had a rental car for Crete and driving is a nice experience through Cretan villages and incredible beaches. There's so much rich history in GREECE , beautiful landscapes and very nice people. I and my wife loved it!!!! and you will absolutely love it!!
- Best of Greece
It's an awesome tour, ticks all the places I wanted to visit in Greece. Mykonos and Santorini are two must visit islands, watching the sunset seems to be the part of life . Our guide Nagia was great, she knows her stuff , friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this tour.
