What a cool place! So interesting as a place to stay, and very friendly hosts. My favorite place to stay on the whole trip.

Fun to have a day in nature with some educational opportunities, but mostly just a really fun hike. I really enjoyed the rock scrambling and being out in nature away from lots of people.

Great location, good rooms, nice breakfast. It was nice to be able to walk out the door and be in the heart of Athens. We were able to walk to many of our activities here.

The staff was great. The breakfasts were lovely. We ate out on a terrace with a nice view. Each room was very different. Ours was huge with a view of the sea and a small private terrace.

This hotel seems like it's a destination all in itself. They have a fantastic breakfast buffet with lots of locally harvested items. There are two swimming pools, walking trails, horses, bee keeping, grapes (wine), olive and fig trees on the property. There are multiple activities each day. For us, since we were going to other locations for tours, we didn't take advantage of all the options at the hotel.

The only reason to stay at this hotel is because it's a short walk across one street to get inside the airport. We had a very early morning flight so this was convenient. They did make us box breakfasts since we were leaving our rooms at 4:00am, which was nice. They had a pool and a spa but there is nothing around the hotel to do. It's between a highway and the airport building.

The location of this hotel was great. It was easy to walk to various things, and there was a nice view. The breakfast buffet was nice. But our room had a tiny bathroom and the second set of stairs to the room were steep with a low handrail. It had maybe just a little too much "character" for us.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. He gave us an interesting tour which we really enjoyed. We saw the main highlights of Athens this day, walking the whole way. We ended up at "the best Gyro place" in Athens which really was very good.

This class was really well done. Everything tasted great. The recipes were things that we think we will actually make when we are home -- not too complex and no strange ingredients. We really enjoyed the chef. We also got some great restaurant recommendations from him. We ate at one of them the next night and had a great meal.

Our driver was knowledgeable and interesting, but there was a lot of driving. I thought we might have stopped at several of the villages to look around, but we only stopped at the furthest one and then retraced our path back to Kalamata. The region was interesting with a rich history and the views were pretty, but it was a lot of driving.

I took the funicular to the top, while a couple of our folks walked up. It turns out there are no views from the car because it's underground. I ended up walking down with the others in our group and it wasn't that far. The views from the top were nice, but there wasn't much to do other than eat at the restaurants which we didn't do because we had other meals planned. The walk to and from our hotel to the base of the hill was a workout in itself. The only minor complaint was that on the original itinerary this was listed as a morning activity, but we had an e-bike tour at 10:00 am so there wasn't time to do it after breakfast and before the tour. Some of us skipped this, and some of us did this in the afternoon between other activities.

The tour of the old city was very interesting, and the restaurant for lunch was great. Apparently the big hall had been closed for years going restoration and was open now. It was well done with a large display of fantastic costumes from the period. The room itself was huge and impressive. The other buildings were interesting to see. We started at the top and walked down amongst the ruins. The restaurant afterwards was great. We got to eat outside in a glass room with nice views that stayed warm - completely outside would have been a bit cool. We had a really nice meal there. The only scheduling issue was that Sparta was quite a drive from Monemvasia. We spent quite a while in the van. But I wouldn't have wanted to miss this tour.

The weather (and a local event) precluded us going to the beach but we did an alternative e-bike tour that was great. We biked around Messene. on small roads among olive trees, ate fresh figs, visited an old monastery that was lovely (Andromonástēro), and saw the ruins of an ancient sports complex that a guy made his life's work to excavate. Our guide was knowledgeable and brought a picnic to end our bike tour with.

We walked through vineyards and olive orchards. Our guide was a 4th generation local and she was great. We really enjoyed hearing about the history of the region and about the ages and different varieties of olive trees. The wine tasting was nice and the meal afterwards was delicious.

We ended up going to a different location but it was more interesting than what was scheduled. We had an interesting discussion about politics and history with our guide, which we really enjoyed. The e-bikes were very nice and worked well. We did go to the castle but I feel like we missed some of the more interesting parts of it. Our tour of the place was done by another guide and it seemed pretty cursory.

This was less interesting than some of our other activities. We walked along the coast to an old church where we had a small picnic. We had the same guide as the day before but this day he spent a lot of time on the phone and seemed less interactive with us.

We missed having a guide while touring this town. It turns out that our hotel could have given us a guided tour if we had known to arrange it in advance. The town was interesting, and we hiked to the church at the top of the hill, but we really didn't know the significance of what we were looking at. It started to rain so we ended up getting a quick bite in a cafe and then taking a taxi back to the hotel.

We enjoyed this tour but because of the schedule we were pretty tired when we started. This was our fault - we should have talked to the guide right away about what we needed. As it was, we walked around Kalamata more than we probably should have. The spice shop was interesting, and our olive oil tasting was really good - i found it very interesting. But the coffee shop was lost on us because most of our group doesn't drink coffee, and the rest didn't want strong coffee at the end of the day. When it was time everyone was too tired to go eat the meal that was scheduled. We felt bad about that - we should have talked to the guide about moving things up. The guide did help us get taxis back to our hotel at the end of the tour.

I really enjoyed this tour. We walked through a residential neighborhood of Athens. Our guide told us about the history of that region, and then we ate at a local restaurant. The food was great, and it was nice to be outside of the touristy parts of town.

We did get to see several sites that were too far to walk. We did end up riding on some busy streets, which may be impossible to avoid, but that was a bit unsettling. We enjoyed seeing the changing of the guards at the presidential palace, which included an additional parade and more pageantry because apparently Amal Clooney was visiting the president that day.

A nice hotel centrally located in the old part of Athens near the acropolis, shops, and many restaurants. The breakfast buffet was good. The rooms were clean and comfortable.

This hotel is located in an old building outside Kalamata. The staff was great, and they had a great breakfast. The rooms were very large, but being old they lacked somewhat in warmth. The one downside of this hotel is that it is located a ways from Kalamata. There are two tavernas that you can walk to for dinner, but other than that you need a car or need to call a taxi.

This is a big modern hotel, which is not really my style. The food is kind of expensive compared with what we had gotten used to. If you have any early morning flight the location is great. Otherwise why would you stay here.

A large resort hotel. It was off season, so there were not many guests. It has a huge breakfast buffet with lots of choices.

This hotel was conveniently located in old town Nafplio. It had a nice breakfast buffet. Other than that the rooms were small, and I didn’t think it had much charm.

This was maybe my favorite activity. Our guide was great, and we learned a lot about Greek history.

This tour was mostly riding in the van for a long time. The guide was interesting and informative, but I was expecting more time to actually explore some of the villages. We did have a little time to explore Areopolis on our own. This was probably my least favorite activity.

This was a great experience.

Monemvasia was very interesting. We felt that it would have been nice to have a guide to learn more of its history and provide transport. We called the resort to call a taxi for us to get back.

A very interesting site. We had a great lunch after.

I didn’t do this activity. After a long morning I decided to rest.

We learned a lot about different kinds of olives and grapes. We had a nice wine tasting, and then a great meal.

This was just a long walk along an empty beach.

The olive oil tasting was good, but by the time it was over we decided to skip the meal because it was getting so late.

An interesting tour of the city. We had seen some of the sites the day before, but there were new sites as well.

We didn’t actually go to the beach or the waterfall, but the alternative things we saw were great.

This didn’t include any famous historical sites, but we met some interesting local people, and ended with a nice dinner.

The gorge was very impressive. It was harder than I expected.with some scrambling over large rocks.

This hotel was absolutely amazing. Beautiful doesn’t do it justice. The people were so helpful and went a step above to make sure every need was met and more. My whole family wished we had had more time to spend there.

This was a great way to understand modern day Athens. It was fun, different and interesting. And the food was delicious. It was at our own pace which was great- plenty of time to ask questions and take pictures.

The beaches of Milos are beautiful! Though the weather wasn’t ideal, we had a great time and still got to see and do a lot. To get up so close to the caves was exciting for all of us.

Despite the weather not being very good, we had a great time. Our guide was wonderful. He gave us options to keep going, or he could have arranged for transportation to take us where we would have ultimately hike to, but we all chose to continue to hike. We all had a wonderful experience.

Everyone who was involved with this experience or so wonderful. Our Driver, who took us there, gave us so much history on the way there. She was extremely personable and make sure we are on time there and for our next experience, and make sure we knew exactly where we were going. During our experience at the farm and making the lunch, the women were so delightful. You could tell they loved what they did and where they lived, and their enthusiasm was catching. Unfortunately, for us, we had just had a large breakfast and our experience within the morning, so we were not as hungry as we might have been when it was time for us to eat. But it was fun learning how to make some of the typical Greek food, and even more fun getting to taste it all.

It was such an interesting tour, as we had always heard of the acropolis, but had really no idea of what it was or why it came to be. It was fun to learn the history. Though it was obviously a lot of walking and up a very steep hill, it was done in such a way that it was very tolerable. We were glad that we were not doing it in the heat of the summer!

My kids had an absolute blast on this tour. They felt like the E bikes were more like motorcycles, and they enjoyed the ride. Our Guide was wonderful about explaining that there had been a bad storm the day before, so the ride was going to be a little bit different. He had offered to change days for the E bike tour, but due to our schedule, we were unable to change. However, he adapted the dinner reservation, so we were all able to attend, even though we did not choose to ride the bike bikes secondary to the weather. He was also flexible when my husband chose to not complete the ride after dinner! He provided great communication with myself, when I chose not to ride at the last minute, so I was able to meet up with the rest of the family. It was a great experience for all of us.

It was a beautiful drive and fun to try all the different restaurants. We were a little disappointed in the winery at the end. We felt like we were a little bit rushed, and the explanations of the wine was very brief. But it had also been a long day and we were tired. And we have been catered to so much on the rest of the trip, that maybe our expectations were a little too high for the winery.

Nice hotel, great balcony view, helpful staff, delicious breakfast, Location is perfect for walking to Kalambaka or Kastraki. The privacy lock on the door did not work, and showers are on the small side, soap the walls and spin!

Wonderful views, very helpful staff, breakfast served in the room. The rooms are spacious and well appointed. Hotel balcony is great for lounging, views, soaking in the pool, and dining. Location convenient for walking to the beach and local restaurants/sites.

Very nice staff, comfortable room, nice view. Breakfast was delicious and evening bar options were amazing. Dinner is also available onsite.

Easy experience to do on our own. The Venetian castle was a short walk from our hotel.

Very nice walking tour with Katrina. It felt like we were spending the day with a friend who lived in Greece. She shared stories about the area and the history. Took us to a quaint coffee house for Greek Coffee. We also went to lunch and explored a wide range of Greek Cuisine. This is perfect for anyone who wants to get away from the crowded tourists sites and enjoy the local culture!

Our driver picked us up and we met our tour guide at the Mushroom Museum. Then we followed the guide to the truffle hunting area. We met the handler for Lara the Italian Water dog/truffle hunting dog, and the chef, Alexandria. Lara demonstrated her amazing skill at finding truffles. Alexandria had prepared three different types of mushrooms for appetizers. Alexandria cooked mushrooms and pasta over an open flame. We enjoyed a delicious lunch and wine on a beautiful sunny day. We also enjoyed some time at the Mushroom Museum and Natural History Museum.

Great day relaxing on the beach and walking the town.

Great adventure, food, coffee, and wonderful sites. Love the Olive Oil Mill tour. Our driver Yainis, was entertaining, informative, and a talented singer. The lunch views are beautiful.

Wonderful day climbing with Costas! It was great to try something new with someone so experienced and safety conscious! We loved this activity!

Great tour guide! Very informative! Wear good walking shoes and be prepared for uneven paths/stairs. It was a bit windy then day we toured Acropolis/Parthenon.

Small van tour. It was very nice being picked up and dropped off at our hotels. Very busy tourist site. Informative information about the area and history. Amazing views and sunset!

I can’t say enough about how wonderful Atrina Canava was. Unbelievable views, lovely rooms and attentive service, plus great location in beautiful Oia.

The room was large , clean and comfortable. The bathroom the same. Breakfast was a large selection of a variety of food, all delicious.

Wow, what excellent hospitality, big very clean room with lots of perks and a view beyond compare. The service was so warm and friendly, the accommodations superb.
