    The tour was a wonderful vacation, with a variety of locations and experiences. The towns we visited were all different. Athens was busy with life and history. The other towns quaint, with beautiful water and Mountain View’s. The food and service was awesome everywhere we went. Our guide Billy was kind and very knowledgeable of all the history and sites we visited. He worked exceptionally hard to give us exceptional service.
