best travel agencies greece

My wife and I wanted to see Greece from a Cultural point of view, but also to experience the people and everyday Greek life. We didn't want to have to set up the whole trip ourselves, as we were busy and tired after a tough year. My wife stumbled upon ...

Greece Insiders online. We told Elena what we wanted and within a couple of days, she'd put together a pretty much perfect trip. With a few small adjustments...it WAS the perfect trip! We had to do nothing but turn up! A wonderful driver, the best guides we could ask for, and nice hotels, made for the trip of a lifetime. One of the most important things for me, was the fact that Elena and Lydia made themselves available to troubleshoot any issues, at any time. The comfort of knowing that anything that might go wrong would be handled for us...was priceless! Thanks to Elena and Lydia, for a fantastic experience!!

We planned a trip with our 2 adult kids & spouses through Greek Insiders & were thrilled with the results. Our trip specialist, Chris, helped us plan a perfect itinerary - small boutique hotels, spectacular views, historical tours, a winery tour…. everything we asked for and more! Every detail was ...

planned - from airport transports, flights to/from Santorini, rental car, tour guides, etc. We loved the fact that this trip was tailored to our personal interests. It was so easy to plan as Chris communicated with us directly. Anytime we had a question, we got a quick reply. We especially enjoyed driving through the Peloponnese Region - the scenery was gorgeous along the coast, and the pace was much more relaxed than Athens. We stayed in 3 different towns and 3 very different hotels, but all were superb! We had never planned a trip quite like this, but Greek Insiders and Chris made it easy and manageable. The trip itinerary was so detailed - it was like having our own personal tour guide with us.

So many spectacular sites and seemingly so little time. Our local agent, Alexandros, through TravelLocal really got us to the best sites and with great guides. All logistics were flawless (how often can you say that). The Hania area in Crete and Delphi were true standouts.

What an amazing 2 week trip to Greece! We worked with Elena to plan an itinerary that included many historical sites and cultural activities that Greece is known for. We were not disappointed. The hotels were top notch and in great locations for exploring the area. We especially liked Nafplio, ...

which is a charming town with great access to Mycenae and Epidaurus. Delphi is an amazing area and Thessaloniki offered some of our best meals of the trip. Our driver was so professional and personable and made sure we had great snacks! We were very impressed by the guides at the archaelogical sites and I highly recommend using a guide to get the most out of your visit. Thanks to Elena and the many other people we met for making us feel welcome and helping us enjoy their amazing country.

Elena from Greece Insiders arranged a 16 day trip for my wife and I. We spent time in Athens, Naxos, Milos and Santorini. Elena booked hotels, arranged transportation, and booked guides/tours. She even had drivers arranged for transportation to and from airports and ferries. All of the guides were for ...

just us and were fantastic—food tour in Athens, Acropolis, Mt Zas hike and small villages tours on Naxos, etc. Hotels and all transportation were great. We felt very taken care of and the tours gave us a lot of history and context for what we saw, as well as a chance to meet and interact with locals.

We enjoyed our trip. The drivers and guides were excellent. The drives were very friendly and helpful. The guides new their Greek history and was able to explain it in a fashion for us to understand. The only thing that I would change is when I am planning my trip, ...

I would not do multiple days together of guided tours. There were times by the end of the 2nd day I was not able to absorb the information they were talking about. We loved loved our days in Zagori, the place we stayed was excellent (our favorite) and the gorge and bridges were beautiful. I would highly recommend this to anyone that is going to Greece. The water in Zakynthos was so blue and clear, it was magnificent, and would highly recommend this island to anyone.

The scenery in Greece was spectacular! We traveled to Thessaloniki, Zagori (favorite), Meteora, Delphi, Athens, and Zakynthos. All of our local guides were very knowledgeable about the ruins, Greek history and mythology, and took us to many notable museums. However, I am not a history buff, so all the facts, ...

dates, exhibits overwhelmed me. The trip was very well planned for getting around the country and seeing the sights, except on Zakynthos and in Rafina.We took lots of pictures to remember our trip by and share with others.

I highly recommend this company for your travel to Greece.Elena our trip planner advisor was very responsive to all our requests. She booked every tour, every hotel, and all we had to do was show up. She was easy to reach with questions while we were in Greece.We had a ...

private driver, Andres, for almost a week, our guides, 4 in all, were extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Honestly, our guides may have been the best guides in all of Greece. They treated us so well! Making sure we had everything we needed and took us everywhere we went. So much better than a group tour.Our trip was tailor-made for us, just the way we wanted to see Greece. First class!

Superb - that was our experience with Chris and his Italy team.  Upon first reaching out to KimKim we were immediately connected to Chris. He understood our hopes and preferences and compiled extraordinary hotel accommodations in four cities. He set up the right-fit tour guides and transportation for us.  Chris ...

and his colleague, Maria Grazia, supplied daily detailed information with names and connections.  Midway through our two week Italy stay, we switched plans when Chris and Maria Grazia fully understood and reacted quickly to make other plans for us. Chris suggested an online meeting before we left our Boston home to review our specialized itinerary  which proved extremely worthwhile and allowed us to make a face-to-face connection.  Thanks to the Whatsapp application we had both Chris and Maria Graze in our pockets 24 hrs. per day.  We did have some off-hours communication that both Chris and Maria Graze accepted helpfully and graciously - they both possess a great sense of humor.  We could not more strongly recommend working with Chris and his hand-picked team.

The historic sites throughout, Greece are fascinating, an easy to access. The local food and market was incredibly delicious. Consider traveling for two weeks or longer to the islands and to the Peloponnese. Also, a private tour/driver is most convenient and improves your ability to enjoy Your adventure. Greece Insiders is a superb travel ...

planner. They are very responsive, attentive, and made attention to detail a priority.

Our experience was absolutely wonderful ! Being that we both have never heard of the company ,we were a bit hesitant since we were planning our honeymoon and we wanted everything to be perfect! That fear and hesitation was quickly squashed the moment we were able to speak to our ...

travel guides, first we had Elena who initiated our itinerary and hit the nail on the head, gave us exactly the type of trip that we wanted and was looking for especially for our honeymoon! Then we had Lydia who finished off the tail end of our planning before getting to Greece and she was incredibly communicative and responsive to when we had questions and helped us get all of our things together prior to going on our trip! From the moment we arrived in Greece, everyone whom we had come in contact with was so incredibly nice and fun it felt like we were hanging out with friends! When meeting with each of our tour guides , even Lydia our travel guide one night, Being in a new place it was so refreshing to have amazing conversations about the culture and just being in the company of good genuine people. Lydia would check in with us through out our trip to make sure we were okey and it was incredibly comforting. We kept saying to ourselves each day it can't get better and somehow they both topped it off when we had different types of food tours ,Wine Tours and the sheer beauty of each archaeological site was just amazing. We never felt rushed in any way being that it was our honeymoon we wanted to remain active but also have some down time and their itinery gave us a lot of time to explore on our own, places that we wanted check out. We did all of the mainland and we had the same driver each day we traveled which was like one big road trip with a great friend! There was even one day we were supposed to do a hike, the weather ended up being crappy and our driver yannis was on the case in no time he made some calls and we were able to still do something with the day and make it so much fun even though we didn't get to initially do what was planned! That being said I cannot recommend them enough! From the moment we got to Greece, till the moment we left , everybody was so incredibly nice our experience was phenomenal and we cannot wait to use them again to go back!

Greece Insiders put together the perfect honeymoon for us! They were recommended from a friend that used them in the past and did not disappoint. The planning process was very easy and smooth. Lydia made our itinerary and we had a video meeting to discuss our thoughts. We asked to ...

change a few things and she adjusted quickly and all was set to go! When we arrived Lydia met us at our hotel and we had coffee together and she was letting us know if we had any questions, concerns or issues she would be there to help. Everything was great, including smooth transitions between islands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend them to anyone!

We (three adults) worked with Alexandros to plan our 11 day trip to Greece. He listened to our interests and helped us to design a perfect trip that immersed us in the history and culture, while allowing for some downtime to relax. Every tour was fabulous. All hotels that they ...

arranged for our stay were excellent We would not change one thing that we did. Any questions we had during our time in Greece were immediately answered by a representative from Greek Insiders via text. We also received text reminders for flights and other logistics which we found reassuring and helpful. Normally when we travel we plan most of our trip on our own, but with needing to arrange transportation to different islands, we felt getting assistance was a good idea. If traveling to Greece I highly recommend reaching out to Greece Insiders to assist with your planning.

I highly recommend Greece Insiders. This was my first trip using a company like this and I have to say - I wish there was a Greece insiders for every country! We worked with Lydia and she was really really fantastic! She responded quickly to every request and she tailored ...

an Athens trip for me and my wife with some of the best hotels and best tour guides. I cannot wait to book my next trip and look forward to working with Lydia and Greece insiders again!

We finally had our dream trip to Greece! It was so unforgettable and better than we ever expected! Athens has become one of my top 3 favorite cities in the world. The history, the culture, the food, everything there is just amazing.Greece Insiders has designed a perfect trip for us. ...

Our entire itinerary is so well planned. From food tour to day trips to days for ourselves, we experience something new and exciting every single day.Our Destination Expert Elena is such a great guide. She has been so approachable and helpful since we inquired about traveling to Greece. Her warmth and friendliness have made us feel free of any worries from booking the trip through our stay in Athens. A big thank you to Elena's wonderful professionalism!Highly recommend Greece and Greece Insiders!

Elena Kymiri helped plan our trip in March 2023, we started and finalized in September. In February 2024 we had a video conference going over the plans. I asked several questions about places we could visit when we were on our own time. Elena made decision where to go and ...

how to travel easy. She includes local restaurants which we reviewed along with the hotel suggestions. In some cases, the tours, wineries, etc included a lunch, around 2-3 pm and at night we weren't very hungery and may buy a snack at the local mini market. We had both some small group tours - maximum 8 but we only had maybe 5 on it including our self, some it was just us 2, we also had private tours, Athens, Delphi, Chanai. Some of the Tour companies were Luxury Tours, GS-ES tours, and driver in Athens was TBS , ask for Yani with them- great driver and very personable - we met the tour guides either at the site or they may ride with us in Athens. The tour guides were very good and we had fun teasing and learning from them. All the hotels which she booked were within walking distance of many sites or transportation was easily gotten, we used buses as well as hotel drivers. Elena is worth the cost of the travel. Since we were flying in, we elected to fly via Athens to Crete so that we wouldn't be go back and forth to airport to go from Athens to Crete or Crete to Athens to Santorini and then back to Athens to fly out. The cost to fly from Athens to Crete via Sky wasn't much and we arrived in Crete about 5:30 pm. We had no complaints about the Hotels, they were clean, very helpful staff and great locations.

Our advisor was Julia and she was amazing. We went for our birthdays and Julie set up a perfect 18 day trip for us. We would definitely use this company again.

Useful information for planning your vacation in Greece

The official language of Greece is Greek, which is written using the Greek alphabet. English is widely spoken in the cities and on the more-visited islands, although in smaller towns and rural areas it’s less common to find English speakers. Street signs, as well as signs in the airports and ferry terminals, are mostly written in Greek and English.

Greece uses the euro (€), which you can buy easily before you travel. You’ll find ATMs in all cities and larger towns and credit cards are widely accepted. In smaller shops or for small purchases, you might be asked to pay in cash. Banks and exchange bureaus are easy to find but only open for limited hours during the day.

In Greece, you should try food such as dolmades (stuffed grape leaves), souvlaki, (grilled skewered meat) and spanakopita (spinach and feta in filo pastry). Greek food ranges from fresh, seasonal salads to rich and hearty dishes such as moussaka (a layered potato or eggplant dish), but it’s common to eat meze — a selection of hot and cold small dishes — to share among your table. 

Freshly caught fish is typical on the islands, while lamb and goat are popular meats. You’ll find a wide variety of olives and plenty of fresh dips such as taramasalata (fish roe dip) and tzatziki (yoghurt, cucumber, and garlic dip).

Sticky, flaky, honey-soaked desserts such as baklava at the end of meals complement fiery Greek digestifs like ouzo and tsipouro. While Greece isn’t traditionally known for its wine, the Nemea region of the Peloponnese and the island of Santorini produce some fine wines.

In Greek restaurants, a tip of 10% is the norm, though check to see if a service charge has already been added to your total. It’s common to tip taxi drivers, hotel porters, and guides. Taxi fares can be rounded up and a couple of euro is usual when tipping a hotel porter in the cities, but a little more is appropriate in places like Santorini if porters are carrying bags up many flights of stairs. Your specialist can advise on appropriate amounts to tip guides.

For the latest travel advice for Greece, including entry requirements, health information, and the safety and security situation, please refer to the State Department website .

In Greece, you can explore ancient ruins, cruise around idyllic islands, and laze on hidden beaches. It’s a country that goes way beyond its reputation as a beach destination with a history and culture that offers as much out of season as it does in peak summer.

The vestiges of ancient Greece litter the country from the Acropolis in Athens to the sacred sanctuary in Delphi. You can take a guided tour to bring history to life, kayak to the sunken city at Epidavros , or explore Meteora’s monasteries on an e-bike.

Discover contemporary Greek life on a guided walking tour of Athens’ street art or on a hike to the traditional villages of Naxos . Learn more about Greek food culture at a cooking class on Milos or a visit to a Santorini vineyard, or simply enjoy the turquoise, crystalline waters on one of Greece’s many and varied islands.

Greece offers plenty of choice when it comes to places to stay from whitewashed villas overlooking the Aegean to restored mansions in historic towns and boutique hotels in downtown Athens.

On the mainland, you could choose a serene hideaway in the Peloponnese countryside, a traditional inn overlooking the dramatic rock formations at Meteora, or a 19th-century mansion in central Athens. On the islands, your specialist can help you find the right place to stay whether you’re after an indulgent wellness resort in Santorini, a modern, minimalist hotel on Mykonos, or refined elegance in an understated luxury hotel in Hydra.

For more ideas, take a look at our collection of places to stay in Greece .

Greece has so many appealing destinations, it can be difficult to choose where to go, but most visitors tend to head to Athens, Delphi, Mykonos, and Santorini. Athens is crowned by the Acropolis and its renowned Parthenon, which lord over city streets lined with Byzantine churches and Ottoman mansions.

You can dive into Greek mythology at Delphi , explore monasteries that teeter on pinnacles of rock in Meteora , or discover the neo-classical mansions of wealthy sea captains in historic Galaxidi .

The Greek Islands each have their own character and attractions from volcanic Santorini with its plush hotels and excellent restaurants to cosmopolitan Mykonos , or sleepy, traditional Hydra . Speak to your specialist about your interests and they can advise on where’s best to go.

In summer in Greece, you should wear light clothing in natural fabrics, and bring plenty of sun protection. In winter, it can be chilly and damp, so you’ll want something warmer. Whenever you visit, it’s important to dress respectfully if you’re visiting religious sites such as the Meteora monasteries. Both men and women will be expected to wear clothes that cover their shoulders and legs. Women arriving in shorts will be given a long wrap skirt to wear on entry.

The best way to get around in Greece is by car and public ferry. On the mainland and on larger islands, renting a car gives you the freedom to explore as you wish. We can also arrange for a private car and driver if you’d prefer not to drive.

If you’re visiting the Greek Islands, you can fly in, or take a ferry to travel between islands. Ferries can be delayed due to bad weather and sea conditions, so a ferry tracking app comes in useful when planning.

It takes around nine hours to fly from the East Coast of the US to Athens in Greece, and around 14 and a half hours from the West Coast.

The time zone in Greece is UTC+2 hours. Daylight Savings Time is observed from the last Sunday in March until the last Sunday in October.

US citizens don’t require a visa for travel to Greece for stays of up to 90 days.

Your doctor can provide you with immunization advice for Greece, but also check you’re up to date with the recommended vaccinations at home. You can check the suggested vaccinations on the  Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website .

Check that your passport is valid for at least six months after your departure from Greece and has two blank pages.

There are a lot of great ways to travel in Greece. You can take domestic flights or even go on a road trip. However, nothing beats Greek cruises that travel up and down the Aegean Sea all year-long. Cruises are fantastic for sight-seeing as well as outdoors activities.

If you are a first timer in Greece then Athens could be a bit too overwhelming for you. We suggest starting at either Mykonos or Santorini. Mykonos has excellent night-life that will keep you busy and Santorini’s wineries and safari tours are world-famous.

Greece has a lot of variety in their cities and each city has something unique to offer. Athens has its own sense of culture and tourism, Crete is an island paradise, Santorini is known for its architecture and wineries and Mykonos will give you a luxurious nightlife.

Greece is a country that is rich in history, mythology, culture and natural beauty. A visit to Acropolis or Delphi will shroud you in myths and legends while places like Mykonos and Santorini are excellent for an authentic cultural experience.

Verified review.

We had an amazing vacation, planned perfectly from start to finish by Zicasso’s travel company! This was the first trip we've taken using a travel agent and it was so nice to have everything planned out by someone who knows the country so well. All of the accommodations, drivers, and tours were spot-on and we never had to worry about anything.

Georgia's Travel Agency

 Based on  85  reviews

Georgia planned a great vacation for my family (parents plus two 20-ish daughters). We went to Athens (4nts), Naxos (4nts) and Santorini (3nts). It took a couple of iterations to finalize the itinerary (which I took as a positive because it showed Georgia was really listening and working to customize the trip what my family was looking for rather than offering a canned tour). And I may be just a *wee* picky :) The guides she secured were all wonderful. Our guide in Athens was absolutely lovely. She was knowledgeable and friendly. We were chatting like friends before too long. She also took great care of our daughter when she got a little ill during our Acropolis tour. Naxos was the favorite part of our trip. We loved what the island has: great beaches, food, restaurants, cultural sights, nature/hiking and water activities and what it did NOT have: high prices, crowds. Santorini..since it was our 1st visit, we couldn't *not* stop. It's beautiful for sure but it was also expensive and crowded. One and done for us. The transfers in all three locations were impeccable.Overall, our trip was seamless and the communication with Georgia was great throughout.

George's Travel Agency

The trip we planned with Zicasso’s travel agent was beautiful. From the very beginning, she was wonderful and friendly. She gave us multiple budget options to help us pick and choose our level of luxury, while still keeping us within our budget. She also gave us many helpful tips to plan for our trip and checked in on us daily while we were in Greece. All of our travel and location connections were handled and scheduled perfectly, so all of our excursions while we were traveling were stress-free! My wife and I couldn't have imagined a better trip for our honeymoon!

I had an amazing vacation! It was not enough time and I am definitely planning a return trip. My travel agent and Zicasso provided excellent service for the duration of the trip. They had every detail planned out. They were responsive to all of my questions before and during the trip. They were responsive and very accessible. The service I received from every hotel, driver, and tour guide was excellent. Every place I stayed was beautiful and impeccably clean. Our agent took my preferences and tastes, and curated a beautiful vacation for me that I will never forget.

Eleni's Travel Agency

 Based on  33  reviews

Zicasso's travel partner did an amazing job putting together our itinerary and handling all the logistics. We did an intro call to discuss what we were interested in, how we like to travel, dietary constraints, etc. They did a great job synthesizing that and coming up with a pitch-perfect plan of sites, hotels, restaurants, and means of transportation. On the trip itself, everyone involved was professional, punctual, and fun. This was the first trip I have taken where I didn't have to worry about getting from point A to B, finding good places to eat, researching the best sites, and how everything would fit together. Additionally, the travel team was very thoughtful in how everything would fit into the available daylight hours, how we'd be feeling with jet lag, and how to navigate a holiday where many things would be closed. I am already thinking about the next trip we'll take with their help.

Irene's Travel Agency

 Based on  308  reviews

Our family of four highly recommends Zicasso’s tour operator in Greece. Our itinerary and the communication with our agent and her associates were exactly what we had hoped for. They were excellent at providing quality travel experiences in Athens, Crete, and Santorini. It was very organized and everyone was extremely professional, educational, and personable. The drivers were very knowledgeable and the vehicles were comfortable. Our driver who picked us up from the airport and drove us to Delphi had a wealth of knowledge, as did our Delphi tour guide. Our guide in Santorini toured us around the island and was a delight. Our private tour guides in Athens, at the Acropolis and museum, as well as on our food tour, were great. Our tours in Athens, Crete, and Santorini were either with archaeologists or native to the areas, providing memorable tours. The olive oil tasting and cooking class in a traditional village with our guide was educational and we made several Greek dishes to enjoy for our lunch. Amazing! The hotels on this tour could not have been better! They were all centrally located to the main parts of town and all had great views. We didn't have to worry about a thing! Our agent provided us with a cellphone for communication. It came in handy when our ferry was canceled in Crete and we had a change of plans all taken care of by our agent and her associates. The islands were so beautiful and we spent the perfect amount of time on each one. I will use our travel company to tour more Greek islands.

Rebecca's Travel Agency

 Based on  92  reviews

Although it’s trite, it was a trip of a lifetime, starting with the original planning session with Zicasso’s travel representative several months before the trip, when she asked us what we like to do and what we envisioned for our trip. It ended up being just the right mix of local cuisine and culture, sightseeing, history, archaeology, and myths, as well as beach time, with wonderful accommodations on Crete, Santorini, Naxos, and Athens.

Tasos' Travel Agency

 Based on  1  reviews

With our full work and family schedule, planning our much-desired trip to Greece was not going to fit into our timeframe. Zicasso and the team at the travel company were the best! Our agent listened to our needs and desires for the trip – experience and adventure throughout Greece. He updated and made the changes we suggested. We ended up with a wonderful 10-day trip from Athens to Nafplio and Paros. We hiked, experienced history, enjoyed wonderful local foods and shops, kayaked, snorkeled, froze under a mountain waterfall, and saw the clearest, bluest lakes ever. One of the highlights was during a hiking/water day when we had an incredible lunch at a local woman's home in the mountain area. The food was beautifully prepared, the conversation enjoyable, and the property idyllic. Once we headed to the island of Paros, which we highly recommend due to fewer crowds and wonderful restaurants and shopping, we topped off one evening with a 6.5km cultural hike along the Byzantine highway, learning why the homes are abandoned and whitewashed, and there are more than 20 varieties of wild, medicinal herbs, as well as learning the history of battles throughout the regions. If you haven't visited Greece, this travel company will create the ideal itinerary for your time there. I recommend visits to Athens, Nafplio, and Paros. Bring your walking and water shoes, and let them take care of everything else.
