Greece Local Travel Experts

The trip was organized perfectly and I had a wonderful time. My guide managed a couple of changes that occurred along the way including a different hotel on Heraklion and a cancelled tour. The hotels were really good. The one on Naxos was literally feet from an amazing beach.

This was the first time we had used a holiday planning and booking company and we were initially a little unsure but ultimately hugely impressed. Julia - from Somewhere We Know in Athens, came up with a really interesting proposal. She responded speedily and positively to our suggestions and changes to come up with a holiday that we were happy with in terms of schedule, activities and price. All of the hotels she recommended were great, especially the Mazarakis guesthouse in Sparta. Her suggested places to visit and things to do were also also all great. She responded sensibly to practical questions, such as whether it was better to collect our hire car from central Athens or the airport, and then organised the collection and drop off to suit us. The information pack was really helpful and user friendly, especially because we were able to download it onto an app and then click through for travel directions and for contacting hotels, guides etc. What we particularly valued was the personal guides she selected for our tours around the Acropolis (Elana), Delphi (Penny), Olympia (Elena number 2) and Epidaurus (Thodoris), who were all great in their different ways. She was in contact throughout the trip, so that we knew that we could contact her if we had any problems. All in all, very highly recommended.

Rough Guides connected us with the most thoughtful local trip planning in Greece. We got a very personalized recommendation with adjustments as requested, and very prompt responses. Our trip included things we never knew we wanted, but wouldn't have missed for anything! The trip went very smoothly, and the accommodations were fantastic. The personal touch was exactly what we were looking for, and the insider knowledge of the local adviser was so very helpful. Highly recommend these services!

Rough Guides are the best! Julia’s help planning our itinerary from Athens through Peloponnese Peninsula was invaluable! She selected amazing places to stay! Our guides at ancient sites were so knowledgeable and helpful. And the various travel docs she assembled were great. Couldn’t have been happier! Thank you!

My friends had a great time exploring Greece with the help of Rough Guides. It was my first time visiting the country and not knowing what to expect (even with researching ahead of time!), I was glad our group decided to work with a company to plan out details

They were excellent to work with and custom designed all of our activities based on what we like to do as a family. The guides and transfers were excellent. We never waited or wondered what was happening. Very easy and relaxing!!

I planned my trip to Greece. They put me in touch with a fantastic local tour company who took care of everything! Transportation, lodging, activities, you name it, it was taken care of. This was especially convenient because I was island hopping and the tour company arranged all speed boat transfers and even arranged a cabin for my overnight transfer from Crete to Athens. I highly recommend this service simply for the ease and convenience and for the expertise these tour companies offer. I even planned my next trip to Iceland using the service!

Travelling with you is an unforgettable experience, with great quality and professionalism. Every tour I organise by you is unique and perfectly planned!

The tour to Greece was a pleasant surprise for me! Perfect organisation, pleasant team, amazing landscapes and cultural sites!

This self-drive trip was perfectly organized. The tips on what I could see were very well described and there were good descriptions on how to get there. All my wishes were taken into account. I had a wonderful round trip and I recovered very well.
