Our guide showed us her favorite local favorites, some off the beaten path and some in the thick of things. She was a delightful host and now friend. Working with Dimitris online before the trip was seamless. He was very informative and quickly responded to our questions. We will be recommending Greek TravelTellers to all our friends.”

Overall, an amazing morning! Would highly recommend for any type of traveller.”
