Our Greek trip with our 14 year old granddaughter was extraordinary thanks to Afroditi’s careful planning and exceptional care with arrangements! We are all thrilled! Each of the lovely boutique hotels were perfectly located and progressively more luxurious! We especially loved the one in Heraklion with its little spa and amazing service. We were so impressed with the pickup and drop off service! Afroditi sent us knowledgeable, English speaking drivers who stood waiting for us at every location. The walking tours were wonderful. We really enjoyed the Agora and the major sites of Athens, and of course the amazing Acropolis, the day trip to Delphi was moving, the museum and the ruins in Knossos with their emphasis on the myths and their comparison to historic findings enlightening. All were very well done!!! Mykonos was beautiful and even in April our granddaughter was able to use the pool and swim in the ocean. Our night and final day in Chania provided the perfect end with its stunning sea side promenade and shops. Our final experience -the drive up the mountains to a traditional Crete cooking class where we feed our hosts sheep and made fresh herb and cheese pies and stuffed vegetables with produce from her garden following ancient recipes. She arranged for us to work at a table outside gazing at the snow capped peaks, surrounded by spring flowers , and sipping local wine! A perfect holiday!
