- NNicole· December 9th, 2016Greg aka Sir Greggles..what a legend! I don't know how he does it. Up all day showing us around and up all night partying with us. No matter what question we threw at him he always seemed to have an answer. Not only an expectional and professional guide but also a great mate too! Greg definetly made our holiday a trip of a lifetime and with another contiki tour planned next year, the next guide has a lot to live up too (or Greg get yourself guiding a tour around Spain and Portugal next year for round 2!). Top bloke, top guide!Show moreContiki commented on this reviewHey Nicole, Thank you for taking the time to review your Contiki trip. We are so pleased to know you had a great time on the tour.

Ultimate European plus Greek Islands wouldn't of been so great without him and of course our bus driver Barry! We definently dominated our trip that's for sure.
