    Exploring the cosmopolitan side of Athens and finding tranquility on the islands was an amazing experience. Despina was a true friend and guide, with so much knowledge to share. The hotels were clean and comfortable, and the meals were plentiful and delicious. Eskapas exceeded my expectations.

    From the first day in Athens, we felt well taken care of, and our guide, Despina, made everything flow so smoothly. My husband, a history lover, was thrilled with places like Olympia and Delphi. I, on the other hand, found a piece of paradise in Santorini. The tour allowed us to connect with fellow travelers, and one night, we even celebrated together at a cozy Greek taverna. We’re leaving with incredible memories and a plan to book with Eskapas again.

    Traveling with my parents and kids, I was initially worried about keeping everyone happy, but Eskapas really delivered. The itinerary had a mix of fascinating historical sites and relaxing stops like Mykonos, which gave us all a breather between sightseeing. My kids loved the cruise part of the tour, and I appreciated how well-organized everything was. Our driver, Dimitris, made us feel safe and comfortable, and our guide Stelio was a gem—patient with our questions and full of great stories. Perfect for families looking to discover Greece without the stress.

    We joined this tour with two close friends, hoping to see both mainland Greece and some islands. The trip didn’t disappoint! Our guide, Stelio, and tour manager, Alex, went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. I was especially impressed with the careful planning—each stop was well-timed, and we never felt rushed, even with so much to see. Having free time in Mykonos to explore at our own pace was perfect. Highly recommend.

    I didn’t quite know what to expect from a tour that covers both Greece’s cities and islands, but it was an amazing experience. Olympia was a highlight for its deep history, and then relaxing in Mykonos was just what I needed after all the sightseeing. The balance between exploring and downtime was just right, and Despina, our guide, kept things interesting without overwhelming us. She always had a good story or local insight to share. The trip felt well-paced, and the hotels were all cozy spots where I could unwind each night. I’d definitely consider traveling with Eskapas again!

    Taking this tour across Greece’s mainland and islands was such a rich and layered experience. Each day had its own flavor, blending history, culture, and just enough downtime to take it all in. Our guide, Stelio, was amazing at sharing stories that brought Greek mythology and history into each place we visited, and I felt genuinely connected to each site—Delphi and Meteora especially were something else. The hotels were comfortable and conveniently placed, which made it easy to enjoy some solo exploration. I have to give a nod to Alex from Eskapas for his seamless organization; everything felt thought-out from start to finish. Honestly, it’s rare to travel without a hitch, but this trip managed it, and I’m really glad I chose Eskapas.

    I’ve traveled in Europe before, but Greece with Eskapas was unforgettable. Every city and island we visited felt unique. The blend of culture, history, and leisure time was spot on. Thanks to Despina and our whole travel team for making it such a joy.

    I didn’t think I’d get to know the group so well, but by the end, it felt like we were traveling with friends. The tour itself was perfectly timed, with just enough free moments to wander but plenty of guidance and structure to see each destination thoroughly. I’m now a huge fan of Greek food, especially the olive oil dishes!

      TravelerWritten April 2023

      The description shows that the suites are limited and book up far in advance. We may choose to wait for a suite - but I'd love to know the additional cost per person for an SB-Balcony Suite - our timing is flexible, so we're tethering information before we decide. No earlier than September 2023.

    • EskapasOperatorWritten April 2023

      This year all suites are sold out. We can only arrange for the upcoming year 2024. There are only 7 suites. Suite with balcony supplement is 845USD per person.
