Greece · MORNING
The good morning tours fill up first, especially in July and August. Below: the 15 to book early, what each includes, and how they differ.
Rhodes to Symi day cruise with a new eco boat, a St George Bay swim and snorkel stop, plus 3 hours exploring Symi’s harbour.
“Brilliant staff, good atmosphere and a fun boat trip with great music and a good place to visit”
Early Lindos transfer from Rhodes on a comfy air-conditioned bus, with 4 hours free time, custom map, and a panoramic photo stop.
“Nick was a great driver, chatted along the way and told us the history going into Lindos. Plenty of time to explore, easy to find at the end for departure, picked up from our hotel directly. Very reasonable and would recommend!”
Ride a quad from Agia Pelagia along sea cliffs, visit Achlada, learn olive oil history, taste local products, then watch sunset.
Early entry to the Acropolis and Acropolis Museum with a licensed guide, audio device, and time for photos, plus an efficient, crowd-avoidant route.
“Petros our guide was really good. He shared a lot of information across the full 4 hours and managed time and the group well.”
Rhodes to Lindos in comfort with hotel pickup, a scenic route, quick photo stops, and 4 hours to explore on your own.
“Essentially this was just transport to Lindos. It was fine. Was very hot so plan accordingly- would do the night option next time instead in the summer. Most of the day was spent getting to/from Lindos. You don’t have enough time to do everything there, and aren’t given any additional information other than a map when you get on the bus. Definitely would have been helpful to receive that information by email (including departure time) ahead of time since it is a self guided trip. Very inexpensive, but just be aware all you’re paying for is the bus there.”
Semi-private Athens food tour with 15+ tastings, Athens Central Market, classic pies, cheeses, olives, loukoumades, and dessert with Greek coffee.
“Also learned about history of food. Lots of food and drinks offered. Gari our guide was awesome. Never felt rushed.”
Morning Meteora tour from Kalabaka or Kastraki: see all 6 monasteries, enter 3, hear hermit myths, and grab panoramic photos.
“Our tour of the Meteora was very enjoyable and very informative. Vassilis is a great guide, the visits to the monasteries were perfectly timed and the ride in the van was very comfortable. We were a group of 10 people (adults and teenagers) and everybody was happy with the experience :)”
Half-day catamaran from Adamas to Kalogries and Kleftiko with swims, snorkeling gear, chef lunch, and pirate-bay views.
“It was an incredible day! Love how chill everyone was. I know they do this daily multiple times a day so I’m sure it can get a little old repeating information, but they were great. Food was so delicious! This is a must do activity for sure. Thank you captain George and crew.”
Half-day Meteora morning tour from Kalabaka or Kastraki, small group, views of all 6 monasteries, entry to 3, plus smart audio guide.
“The tour was great, and the guide was very knowledgeable and interesting. The hike itself was a little bit more demanding than expected, but the panoramic views were worth the effort.”
Quad-bike through Crete, visit an abandoned ghost town, then watch the sea sunset. Raki, sweets, and photos included.
“We had a great quad tour even though we had typical British weather! Unfortunately didn't get to see a sunset, we still got to see the sights and the guide was very informative, he spoke to us during the breaks and we felt safe after the short induction, my husband throughly enjoyed the experience as a first time quad biker and gained in confidence as the excursion went on. A fantastic experience, highly recommended”
A 5-hour Athenian Riviera catamaran cruise from Alimos Marina with swimming, snorkeling, and an onboard Greek lunch plus drinks.
“We had an amazing time! This was my first trip to greece and my first activity and it did not let me down! The crew & the weather were perfect! 2nd stop was my favorite because we got served traditional greek food ( the tzatziki and rice dish were amazing). I would do this everyday if I could! Thank you Nikki!”
Two days in Meteora from Athens: bus transfers, hotel breakfast, sunset monasteries, plus a hiking or minibus morning tour.
“The sunset bus tour was lovely. The driver and guide both would help take pictures for each family or individual. The guide was very knowledgeable. The morning hike was amazing! Our guides for the hike were friendly and helpful. The main guide was knowledgeable and very passionate about rocks and mountains. He and the younger guide were happy to answer any questions and share about their experiences and the history.”
5-hour morning catamaran from Kolymvari to Agioi Theodoroi with nutritionist lunch, open bar, SUP and snorkeling, small-group comfort.
“Swimming in the christal clear ocean was just amazing, loved it!”
Ride through Paroikia’s hidden trails at 9:00 a.m., learn horseback basics, and enjoy an easy 1-hour scenic loop with a snack.
“We had the absolute best time. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The family turned business made us feel like family. We had a chance to interact with the horses beforehand as well meet their lovely dog Diego who even followed up on our horseback ride. The guides took the time to take pictures of us, provide drinks before/after the ride and made sure we were doing okay. Highly recommend to anyone visiting this area!”
A 6-hour morning sail from Heraklion to Dia Island for snorkeling, swimming, and scenic coastal views on a well-run boat by Cretan Yachts.
“Wonderful experience from start to finish! Crew were fun and informative, food was delicious, water was our favourite place to swim in Europe. All round, great experience that we would recommend and do again. Relaxing day on the water and snorkeling. Crew even if helped me out and let me steer the yacht when I was feeling seasick.”
Pick the kind of day first. Each list sorts the rest.
