Eirini Tzoka

My name is Eirini, I am a travel specialist and I was born and raised in Athens. My family originated from Northwestern Greece, and it was this area's raw beauty and long-standing heritage that got me interested in culture and nature. I aim to give you a sense of what Greece has to offer; an opportunity to learn about its rich history and culture, enjoy the breathtaking landscapes, and bring unforgettable memories back home!

What places and activities do you specialize in?

"I specialize in Athens, Peloponnese, the Greek mainland, and the Greek islands. Let me take you on exclusive food tours and wine tastings, connect you with leading archaeologists to get a deeper understanding of our rich history, and explore off-the-beaten-track natural parts of Greece."

How did you get involved in travel?

"It's about who you are and where you came from to get to where you are today. My studies in Social & Cultural Anthropology played a vital role in my view of traveling and experiencing the unknown. I have always wanted to be "a new pair of glasses" for someone exploring my country and help them as a local friend."

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"I consider every trip unique and unforgettable. However, Crete will always hold a special place in my heart and especially.. in my stomach. Cretan cuisine is an unforgettable experience in itself and along with the remnants of its glorious civilizations, its impressive mountainous landscapes and gorges, as well as its wonderful picturesque beaches, make Crete for me a heaven on earth!"

Amazing trip to Greece

Eirini planned an amazing trip to Greece. I have never used a travel agent before and will always use one again. She made everything so easy, no detail was overlooked--from the hotels, private drivers, to the tour guides and excursions she planned. We started in Athens and stayed in a lovely apartment right near the Acropolis. We had a private guided tour with Elena of the Acropolis and the agora. She really knew the history and the mythology and made it interesting for the entire family. We moved on to naxos and stayed at boutique hotel that was with an easy walking distance of several restaurants and the beach. We had another tour of the village of chilaki, and visited a small farm with a petting zoo that might kids loved. The following day we did a hiking tour of several villages and got to eat more of the local cuisine. Finally we did a full day catamaran tour that included diving off the sailboat and to the Aegean and snorkeling. Finally we visited Santorini with a tour of the island, visiting a monastery a museum about the lost city of Atlantis, and another sailboat excursion. I have already highly recommended Kim Kim and Eirini to several of my friends. I can't wait to visit Greece again. We plan to use Kim Kim again next year when we plan our next trip abroad.

Heloni apartments
Athens

The apartment itself was fine, though you best not be overweight at all to fit into the tiny bathroom. The door to get into the building is never locked, so it is not very safe and once you do get into the building, there are are about 8 steps that you need to carry your heavy luggage up to reach the elevator. There are many restaurants around the building, but that is about all. The neighborhood is not near much of anything else.

The driver arrived on time and took us around to the usual stops that tourists want to see in Santorini. I mentioned that I wanted to see the ruins and he at first was hesitant to take us there and I had to insist. He admitted he never went there and knew nothing about it. I am a history buff and taught Greek history in middle school. He finally said he would and it was so worth the trip. I would have preferred a driver who knew of some of the "off the beaten path" places to see rather than the view of Santorini from a bunch of different points of view.

The boat should have life preservers for those who are not good swimmers (like myself) and would like to go into the water. I have never been on a boat that did not have them and was disappointed. Also, about half of the passengers on the boat were vegetarians, yet they did not have any vegetarian burgers or sausages. There are so many choices for them out there. that was a bit disappointing as well.

My Daughter and I have just returned from the most amazing vacation to Greece that was booked through KimKim and was organised and taken care of 100% by Eirini.
We have loved Mamma Mia the movie and show since we saw it, my Daughters dream has been to go to Skiathos and Skopelos so Eirini made it happen. We explained what we wanted and Eirini came back with the most amazing trip that we have ever been on. Every step of the way was perfect starting off in Athens bring picked up from the airport and taken to The Foundry suites. We met the beautiful Elena who was our tour guide for the afternoon at the Acropolis and ending at one of the red that Eirini had recommended that we loved.
We were picked up and dropped off to every location along the way. In Skiathos we had a private boat tour around Skopelos and Skiathos stopping along the way to swim if we wished, take in the sights and having an amazing lunch cooked by the captain.
Then a ferry over to Skopelos for three nights staying at Minno and having again an amazing tour of all the Mamma Mia filming sites before enjoying the afternoon on Kastani beach. We had plenty of time to relax even though it was a full on trip. We’ve made the most amazing memories.
I will be booking a holiday again through Kimkim and will be reaching out to Eirini for our next adventure to Greece.

Thank you Eirini for all that you did for us

They need more staff! We had the most amazing welcome from the front desk and there if you ever needed help. The only thing that let the stars down and not receiving a five was the lack of staff around the pool and restaurant. The food was amazing, but It would be great if during breakfast you were able to get your own tea and coffee rather than having to wait for a staff member to order one. It’s all an easy fix

The entire trip was memorable, but I would have to say one of my favorite memories was in Lemeni - it was like a fairytale
The guides are all knowledgeable. I just wish my memory was better for their names.

I did not know what to expect in the southern part of Greece. I didn’t expect all the mountains, loved the small villages— it was really beautiful. We had a great time. Thank you for planning such a wonderful trip.

Overall, we had a good trip in Greece. The weather didn't cooperate while we were in Crete so we didn't quite have the Greek island trip I had imagined, but most of the activities were really fun and the accommodations were really nice.

We had a few hiccups that I wish the team had been more proactive in dealing with. The hotel in Chania had a confusing parking situation with a reservation in a private lot, that was not in any of the KimKim trip plan docs. We went to the lots recommended in the Trip Plans and they did not have overnight parking. For these kinds of issues, I wish the travel agent could've handled time sensitive issues. The hotel was ok with dealing with this but it was frustrating.

We also had one tour that was terrible. It was sold as a small group tour of the villages. It was 18 people on a bus for 6 hours - not what I expected from KimKim. The stops of the tour were ok - only one (a church built into a cave) seemed special. The others were odd and not really useful for getting to know the locals or the island. The lunch was terrible for me, having a gluten allergy. It was super busy and they could only serve me green beans and salad. On a private tour, I would've been able to talk more directly about what I wanted - this was a huge party for lunch in a busy restaurant, and I couldn't have a conversation with the staff. My kids favorite part of this tour was that they could zone out on the bus. Not great.

The other activities were great though - the visit to a family farm was a highlight. The family and staff were lovely, and THIS was how we got a sense of what local life was like on Crete. We also had a great time in the mosaic workshop. The women there were so kind and open in sharing about their experiences living on Crete, and we got amazing souvenirs out of it. My husband and I really enjoyed the tour of the Knossos Palace - our kids didn't, but not the guide's fault. She was great.

"Small group" is 18 people. No personalized experience or content. The lunch was terrible for anyone with food allergies who needs to be able to talk to staff and personalize the experience. My kids favorite part was zoning out in the van.

Hotel Reviews
Domus Blanc Boutique Hotel
Chania

This place is beautiful and the guest services are exceptional. It is about a 20 minute walk into the old town, but most of it is along the shore so not unpleasant and not difficult. The food was very good, my only comment is that I prefer a breakfast buffet rather than an ala carte service. But having said that, what they did offer was very good.

Fantastic service and nice accommodations. The breakfast buffet was amazing, really amazing. And it started at 7:00 AM so one can get an early start on the day's adventures.

Authenticity & Character
Location
It is a walk to the center of town, but the only real downside is that the property sits right on a busy four-lane arterial. So if you wish to enjoy the outside patios to see the ocean, one has a lot of traffic noise and smells to deal with.

Popi Georgopoulou, our guide to the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum was excellent. Her knowledge and the information she shared with us in both places was exceptional. She enjoyed telling the history of Athens and the Acropolis. She not only told us the main points but also some of the side stories which we greatly appreciated. We highly recommend her for all of your tours.
All of our hotels were ideally located, within walking distance of many restaurants and sites.
All of our transfers were punctual, the drivers friendly, helpful and very professional. The vehicles we had were
excellent and provided more than enough room for us and our luggage.
When we needed to keep Eirini or the staff informed about situations, they were always quick to reply and offer help when needed.
Thank you to Eirini and the entire staff in Greece for making our trip and enjoyable and memorable one.
