7-Day Private Tour to UNESCO Heritage Sites, from Peloponnese to Thessaloniki

Susan T Paraparaumu,/ New Zealand

7 Day Classical Tour (Private)--Effortless Classic Road Trip

When our original holiday plans were cancelled on short notice, my cousin and I found Private Greek Tours and booked their 7-Day Classical tour, just the two of us with a car and driver, start any day--perfect! The company is a pleasure to work with, the itinerary packed in a lot and was well organized, our driver Nikos was delightful, and the accommodation was satisfactory. There are some long driving days, but breaks are frequent and mostly at interesting sites. Roads are excellent. It was so nice to sit back and let someone else do the driving, and we felt like we saw way more and experienced more of real Greece than folks on a tourist bus can ever do, and for a reasonable price. A classic road trip without hassles. Includes pick up and drop off at central Athens hotels. Fabulous! No favorite places because it was all good, but Meteora and Nafplio stand out, and also ancient Olympia early in the morning when we saw the ancient stadium with no one else there at all, except for the guy mowing the grass.

7 Day Grand Tour

We had a fantastic time. Our Driver Nicko was the best. He was a real gentleman and nothing was ever to much trouble for him.
He gave us great advise on what was good to see and where to go. He was very informative and I would highly recommend him to any one that would like to do a private tour.
His driving skills were great and safety always came first. He was more than just a driver. Private Tours Greece should be very proud of having him. What an asset.
I must say that Private Tours Greece did do a good job in selecting great hotels (4 stars) to stay in.
A very comfortable, clean car to travel in and the best driver.
He was very good and always a gentleman gave us our space and always at our beck and call.
I will definitely use Private Tours Greece again.

7-Day Private Tour to UNESCO Heritage Sites, from Peloponnese to Thessaloniki

Highly recommended tour company!

We recently took a one-week tour of mainland Greece, including Olympia, Delphi, Meteora, Thessaloniki and Macedonia, with Private Tours Greece and we can't recommend them highly enough. Our Mercedes minivan was very spacious and comfortable and our driver, Dimitris, was wonderful.....very knowledgeable about Greek history and accommodating to all of our needs and wishes. We had excellent local tour guides in each of the places we visited on the tour. We enjoyed all of the hotels that Private Tours Greece had selected but they also allowed us customize the choice of hotels and restaurants in several places. We especially enjoyed the Bacchus Pension, located in a small town just outside of Olympia, where the view of the countryside was outstanding and the food/wine served in the on-site restaurant was plentiful and delicious. Taking a private tour with Private Tours Greece was so much more enjoyable than it would have been driving the long distances and staying in commercial hotels on one of the big bus tours and it was certainly worth the additional cost.

Private Tour - Full day Athens & Cape Sounio plus 7 days mainland Greece

My wife and I, both in our sixties, just returned from a visit to the beautiful country GREECE, where EVERYTHING, beginning from the people all around, the sites, the cuisine are just marvellous and nature has bestowed immense beauty upon this ancient land.
We booked through PRIVATE TOURS GREECE and Madam Dimitra Katsouni, the Sales Manager was ALWAYS co-operative and very responsive at all the stages of my communication during the booking process.
I will be very ungrateful if I do not begin by thanking Mr Dimitris, the driver of our vehicle during the entire period of our tour. An excellent person with vast knowledge on the history and culture of ancient Greece, decent and sober at all times, he was more of a friend and guide than our driver, explaining everything in details and even coming up with suggestions when we were in doubt !! PRIVATE TOURS GREECE is the company with whom I would like to travel once again, if I re-visit Greece in future. Beginning from the vehicle, the hotels, the recommendations, everything was very good and very well arranged. However, like in all good things, there do happen to be certain blotches, I am compelled to say that our hotel in Thessaloniki, EGNATIA HOTEL, where we spent two nights,was simply BAD and didn't deserve to be called a proper tourist hotel. Beginning from a confusion at the front office regarding our reservation, the room, the breakfast choice, nothing was good. We could have overlooked the smaller flaws like breakfast or reservation, if at-least our room was worth a double bedded room. We had to sleep two nights on a bed slightly wider than a single bed in a cramped up room, with a toilet, where a well built person could hardly turn or twist.
My apologies to the entire team at PRIVATE TOURS GREECE for being harsh about our accommodation in Thessaloniki, in an otherwise VERY WELL ORGANISED trip, but I sincerely hope, future visitors will be assisted with a better hotel in Thessaloniki.
To sign off, my wife joins me in THANKING the entire team at PRIVATE TOURS GREECE for the wonderful goodies bag and its contents with which we were welcomed at the beginning of our tour !!

THANK YOU and GOD BLESS !

Thank you again for organizing a wonderful trip for us and for helping with the last minute changes.

I wanted to let you know that my husband and I had the most wonderful experience. We loved every bit of it. And the trip was made perfect by our driver, Kostas. He was just wonderful; so thoughtful, generous, kind, and smart. And of course, a very good driver! He went out of his way every day to be sure that he included special things and took the best care of us. Our trip will be forever memorable and we are incredibly grateful to him.

I hope that you will pass along our immense appreciation to Kostas. He is a gem.
