“I was afraid of taking ONE whole day from our time in Greece...it was 100% worth it! The bus ride was beautiful, the small town we stopped for snacks and food were both adorable. The monasteries were breathtaking. Worth the time and reasonable cost. Plenty of walking but resting in between as well. Aphrodites and Niko were both great!”

“We had an amazing day trip to Meteora. We highly recommend this trip. Maria was a delightful comedian who kept your attention with stories about the history of the site. The meal stops were fine and the drivers were reliable. There is a lot of sitting but the stops helped and the visit to the shore town on the way back and forth was also good for quick food. This will be a trip you won’t forget.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 732 reviews · 4 days (approx.) · from $766

4 days across classical Greece from Athens, with UNESCO ruins, included hotels and dinners, and guided visits from Epidaurus to Meteora.

“The tour was good and the locations of the sites were truly impressive. Long driving times were tedious. The tour guide worked diligently but was not well informed and not easy to deal with. Rest stops were well timed but the lunch places served their hot food cold. This was not the fault of the tour but was an unfortunate feature. The hotels and and breakfasts and dinners in them were excellent.”
