What people love about Greece Tours in December
- Greece Discovery Tour
So far our best tour organiser, all issues we had, promptly and well executed. Our next travel choice for tour to Italy.
- Best of Greece
Excellent. The tour was very well organized. Hotels were in good locations . The pick up from airport and various ferry terminals was perfect and punctual. The tour organizer was always available on WhatsApp. It was a good mix of organized tour and free time.
- Greece Classic Tour
I had a wonderful time on the Classic Greece Tour! Usually on these trips (4-Day) the guide makes or breaks the tour. This time Dimitria did an Amazing job communicating the daily itinerary, where we needed to be and when. She had great stories to tell and very knowledgeable of each and every site. Our Driver is a spectacular professional driver! Getting us where we needed to be on time and safe! There are some crazy roads in the Mountains and he maneuvered them well! Our tour was 1/2 English and 1/2 French which was fun. The sites were great, my favorite was Meterora! Bring you Camera, take pictures for you fellow travelers and enjoy the beautiful sites of Greece, You will be in awe in every direction...

Where is the best place to stay in Athens during December?
