Personalized trips to Greece

Athens Mythology tour was fabulous, our guide was so engaging and a brilliant story teller. The hotel in Athens was very cosy and service very friendly. The weather was perfect for a City tour but got somewhat colder in Santorini!

Athens Mythology tour was fabulous, our guide was so engaging and a brilliant story teller. The hotel in Athens was very cosy and service very friendly. The weather was perfect for a City tour but got somewhat colder in Santorini! Angela worked hard to rearrange trips taking account of weather conditions and we were able to participate in and enjoy all. Santorini was beautiful but one should be aware that during February most restaurants are closed and there is a lot of construction work ongoing. However this did not dampen our enjoyment; the two open establishments were superb! We had a very comfortable cave on Santorini with a superb view. Will be using Kimkim again!

Chris was incredible. We wound up calling him our deus ex machina because he was always there and responsive if we had any questions or issues. This was our first time using a travel agent and we'll never do it any other way. Chris listened to what we were looking for in our trip to Greece and created a plan that we then read through and adjusted if we wanted to.

Chris was incredible. We wound up calling him our deus ex machina because he was always there and responsive if we had any questions or issues. This was our first time using a travel agent and we'll never do it any other way. Chris listened to what we were looking for in our trip to Greece and created a plan that we then read through and adjusted if we wanted to. We were met at each airport by a driver holding a sign with my name on it. We visited many ancient sites and he arranged private guides at each one. When we flew on an internal flight, the boarding passes magically showed up on my phone. When we had a late flight leaving Rhodes, we were about to ask the hotel for a late checkout, only to find that Chris had already arranged it for us. Every day had suggestions for what we might want to do as well as restaurant suggestions. We even met him (and his kids!) for dinner. We can go on, but he made this a truly wonderful and memorable trip.

PS I have no idea what Kimkim did other than set us up with Chris. He was amazing.

We had wonderful guides and experiences on the Greek mainland, Santorini, and Crete. It was wonderful to not have to drive or worry about transportation and each of our guides was knowledgeable about their areas and took us to places we would have never found on our own. Highlights for us were Crete and Meteora. Had some marvelous food and wine all over Greece. Babbis(mainland) Lazurus (Santorini), and Yiannis (Crete) were all just fantastic guides and hosts.

We had wonderful guides and experiences on the Greek mainland, Santorini, and Crete. It was wonderful to not have to drive or worry about transportation and each of our guides was knowledgeable about their areas and took us to places we would have never found on our own. Highlights for us were Crete and Meteora. Had some marvelous food and wine all over Greece. Babbis(mainland) Lazurus (Santorini), and Yiannis (Crete) were all just fantastic guides and hosts. We loved everything we saw, but do wish we had a little more downtime at the end of our trip. That was our fault, not the guides. Our first hotel in Athens, The Foundry and Hotel Azade were especially standouts with amazing views and comfortable spaces.

Hotel Reviews

The Foundry Suites

Athens

Absolutely marvelous. Unique space with a wonderful rooftop garden.

Authenticity & Character

Cool industrial vibe with modern amenities.

Location

Easy walk to all sites and action.

Staff

So helpful and friendly throughout our stay

Cleanliness & Comfort

We stayed in Suite D1 and it was comfy and well-equipped

Domotel Anemolia Mountain Resort

Arachova

Hotel was off the beaten track and quite a walk to the town for meals etc, especially when it was dark as there was no sidewalk and the road was pretty windy. Not a good combo for pedestrians. We were lucky to have a guide willing to come get us. Since it was off-season, there was no transportation, no restaurant service, and no laundry services provided. It would have been good to know these things prior to checking in. The room was adorable and the fireplace was fun to have.

Authenticity & Character

Precious chalet room with a fireplace, peaked ceiling, and mountain views.

Location

The road to town is a bit dicey without transportation. It is not that far, but they need to offer transport to town.

Staff

They were accommodating when they could be. It snowed in the mountains the weekend we were there, so it would have been nice for more services to be offered as they did have quite a few guests.

Cleanliness & Comfort

The room was very clean and the view was excellent.

Domus Renier Boutique Hotel Chania

Chania, Crete

We stayed at Hotel Azade - not this hotel and it was by far our favorite of the trip. https://azade-chania.com/

Ippoliti

Nafplio

Authenticity & Character

Cute balcony and a nice view.

Location

Easy walk to everything.

Staff

Tried to put us in a lesser room than we booked way back in August. The first room you had to crawl over the bed to the bathroom. We were there for 4 days, so that was unacceptable.

Cleanliness & Comfort

Once we were moved to the proper room, it was quite comfortable. The laundry service was quick and efficient.

Yiannis took the time to help me find a beautiful spot to spread some of my parent's ashes and always had fun with us.
