“Once in a lifetime trip to Italy and Greece. The itinerary, the tour guides, the hotels, the transportation....everything was A+...we took the optional 4 day cruise through the Greek Islands which was amazing. Traflagar does it again...I will happily recommend this trip to all my family and friends.”
- Glenn W. Best of Italy and Greece
“Our Tour Director, Stylianos was amazing. He went above and beyond to make sure everyone had an excellent time. His knowledge about each subject and area we toured was impressive. Our Driver Chris, also went over and above to accommodate the few group members that were not able to ambulate well on our tour.”
- Suzette F. Best of Greece
“Ourania Panoutsou was our guide and she is the best guide I’ve ever been with on a tour. Her love for her country is obvious and she was very knowledgeable about places we visited. The tour itself was well organized and we saw historic sites that were important to us and not tourist traps. Can’t wait to go back on another trip with Trafalgar.”
- Lynn B, Best of Greece
“Our tour director was knowledgeable and highly skilled in art and archeology. The sites visited in this itinerary were outstanding and presented an excellent overview of the ancient Greek civilization. The hotels were clean, and the food throughout the tour was excellent and plentiful.”
- Dana Y. Best of Greece

However, a huge benefit of a coach tour is that you will be travelling in a air-conditioned coach which means that your Greece tour is comfortable even during the hotter summer months.
