Greece · TOUR REVIEWS
Two weeks or a long weekend, the problem does not change: too much coastline and one itinerary. The 15 below are the days that earn a slot, priced and timed, with the rest of the catalogue underneath when you want to dig.
Book a timed Acropolis entry, then visit up to five ancient sites across Athens within three days. Choose audio tours or an English live guide, and use the app to manage extra-site tickets. Early morning visits offer cooler weather and clearer views.
“Was a really good experience & the audio worked really well, woukd recommend 👌”
Book a date and entry time, receive your Acropolis ticket by email, and enter near the Acropolis metro station. Choose a self-guided audio tour, a live guide, or both. Walk from the Theater of Dionysus to the Parthenon, Erechtheion, Propylaea, and temple of Athena Nike.
“Excellent tour with Petros. He gave us a very knowledgeable tour of the Acropolis and surrounding area. A must do tour when in Athens.”
Walk Athens’ Acropolis with an English-speaking licensed guide, then visit the Acropolis Museum. Hear mythology and history at the Parthenon, see the Caryatids and Parthenon frieze, and choose a shared or private tour with ticket options.
“Brilliant! Jason is very knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Athens and kept our attention for the whole tour. Lots of walking but because the information was so interesting you hardly realise how far you’ve walked! Not for people with mobility issues!”
Travel from central Athens along the Athenian Riviera to Cape Sounion by comfortable, air-conditioned coach. An English-speaking guide such as Angelina, Lydia, or Dimitra shares Greek myths and local history, then you get about two hours to explore the Temple of Poseidon and watch the sunset.
“Me and my partner really enjoyed my tour, everything organised perfectly from start to finish. Highly recommend!”
Set sail from Kissamos on a large, comfortable ferry to Gramvousa and Balos Lagoon. Swim from rocky beaches, hike to Gramvousa’s Venetian castle, and enjoy about two hours at each stop. Food, drinks, toilets, and an audio guide are available onboard, but expect a busy shared boat.
“visited 2 amazing g spots, Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa Island, some of the most beautiful scenery and crystal clear blue water I have ever seen. our package included lunch which consisted of a main meal (pasta or chicken), salad and a bottle of water, meal was ok but I'd suggest bringing your own lunch. Weather was perfect and the 1 hour trip out from Kissamos was calm, staff at the Kissamos Port were so friendly. The only down side to the whole trip was the amount of time it took to get off the boat, at Balos we waited for 20 minutes, not a big issue for us as we're…”
Walk from the Theatre of Dionysus to the Parthenon with an English-speaking licensed guide. You’ll hear myths and history through a personal earset, see the Erechtheion and Nike Temple, and may add Acropolis Museum entry.
“We loved our tour! Our wonderful guide made a busy tourist attraction feel accessible and helped us connect to the stories behind the location. Even our children were transfixed...and when they were flagging at the end of the tour she cleverly revealed the Lego acropolis reconstruction and boosted them 😌. we rarely book tours choosing to self guide but would 100% recommend taking this tour to get the most from your acropolis experience”
Spend about 7.5 hours aboard the blue Odyssey from Kos, visiting Kalymnos, Plati, and Pserimos. You get a fjord-side village stop, several chances to swim, a Greek buffet lunch, affordable cocktails, and possible dolphin sightings near local fish farms. English-speaking crew guide the day.
“Was a great experience, best part was to be able to get into Kalymnos and the other small islands around, to know the habitants of the place. The boat crew was amazing, creating a vivid atmosphere at the board, food was good , cocktails at the bar affordable. We manage to observe 🐬 during our trip which was a bonus. The only inconvenient I would say the boat was a bit crowded, somehow stiff 6 persons in a 4 people seat.”
Spend about 10 hours sailing from Marina Zea to Agistri, Moni or Metopi, and Aegina. Expect a Greek buffet, wine, beer, soft drinks, snorkeling gear, music, and free time ashore. Crew members such as Sam, Mo, and Elizabeth are often praised for their friendly help.
“Totally enjoyable trip! If you like having the chance to walk on a Greek island beach and swim in the Aegean Sea in late October--you are in for a treat!”
Use one ticket across Athens, Piraeus, Glyfada, and Vouliagmeni. Ride from the cruise terminals to the Acropolis, then continue to marinas, beaches, shopping streets, and Vouliagmeni Lake with commentary in 16 languages.

Ride from central Athens along the Athenian Riviera to Cape Sounion, where Poseidon’s Temple sits above the sea. You’ll get an audio guide in six languages, a photo stop, about 90 minutes at the site, and sunset views. George, Sotiris, Vasilis, and other escorts have earned praise for clear commentary and good humor.
“Really loved the tour! Very well organised and smooth journey, Vasilis our guide brought the vibes.”
See Athens from an open-top double-decker bus with a 24, 48, or 72-hour pass, multilingual audio, free WiFi, and stops near the Acropolis, museums, beaches, Piraeus, and Lake Vouliagmeni. You can add the Riviera and port routes for a broader look at the city.
“I liked the freedom to go where I wanted. The stops along the way were interesting and not repetitive.”
Spend a full day exploring Agios Nikolaos, Elounda, and Spinalonga Island with an English, German, or French-speaking guide. The trip includes hotel pickup, coach transport, boat tickets, free time in the towns, a 90-minute island visit, and a swim stop on the return.

“It was worth upgrading to the VIP level! Had a fabulous time! the steward and the stewardess in the VIP cabin were par excellence with their customer service! Alex and his colleagues were amazing! They even gave me a complimentary cocktail since it was my birthday. I fell a little ilk after havinr run up and down the clocktowr stairs in Poros because I left my jacket by mistake, and was scared that the cruise would leave without me. But I was well taken care of given water and lots of kind words. Thanks again! Will 10/10 recommend it to everyone! ❤️”
You’ll board the Sebeco Lines speedboat at Kolona Harbor for an 80-minute crossing to Symi. Enjoy Rhodes views from the open sundeck or air-conditioned cabin, then explore Symi independently for several hours, with time for food, shopping, photos, and possibly a swim.
“Great trip, emailed to offer hotel transfer too which was great with A/C. Boat to Symi about 80 mins bit choppy but dry, lovely views. 3 hours is perfect amount of time in symi”
