I’m so glad I was connected with Nikos at Greekly. I had some very specific requests for my trip and he was able to cater to them all. He even went above and beyond to change the schedule during the trip to accommodate my desire to see certain sites last minute. On top of that, his knowledge of and passion for Greece is truly infectious and took the trip to the next level for me. Read more

Seaside Lunch in Fokida region

Greece

This restaurant has some of the freshest and most unique seafood I’ve ever had. The owner clearly loves sharing each morning’s catch with his guests. On top of that, the view of the small island with the church of St Nicolas is charming. The owner even took me to the island in his fishing boat which was way beyond what I’d expected and was a highlight of the trip.

Rarely have I found a person with such a passion for what they do. Leonidas loves the flavors and ingredients of Greece and by the end of this masterclass, so did I. What took the experience to the next level was the amazing view of the mountains and sea you have while tasting some of Greece’s most unique flavors.

Dear Max,
I’m so glad that you were connected with us, as your trip was one of our beloved to handmake for you: the very specific requests and your clear view of what you wanted helped us focus on making your customized trip and cater to what you asked.
Since you booked your private trip, we could cater to any last-minute changes, especially since I was your tour leader during these days, which gave us 100% freedom to change things fast and efficiently. On top of all, it was an amazing experience for me as well, as you were open to seeing the real Greece, where even locals have never been, which inspired me to share my love for this amazing country.

I'd be really happy to meet you again anytime in the future.

Thanks to Nikos, my family and I had a fantastic trip to Greece. We did, saw, and learned so much in our short time in Greece that we never would have been able to do without his guidance. By finding hotels with the best breakfasts, recommending excellent restaurants, and suggesting unique excursions he made sure we had the best experience possible. Nikos was very responsive throughout the entire planning phase as well as throughout the trip to ensure everything was in accordance with our expectations and ran smoothly. While we were in Santorini, we encountered a conflict with our boat cruise. Nikos immediately made phone calls and proposed an alternative plan that ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. He is very passionate about providing the best service possible.

What a phenomenal, exciting, beautiful, romantic, and memorable adventure!

I still marvel at Nikos' ability to plan the perfect and unique experience for us. At every turn, he asked the right questions to create so many of these special little moments for us all throughout this incredible country. There is no way we could have planned something so thoughtful and authentically Greek on our own.

He planned every little detail so all we had to do was follow his itinerary to be constantly delighted and amazed by what he had in store for us. By the end, we kept laughing at the absurdity of how magical it all was and we'd say to each other, "Of course, this is happening. Nikos planned it."

I started to write out our favorite experiences, but genuinely, I would have listed every single thing we did on our trip.

Here's the point: If you want to go to Greece, work with Nikos. Tell him about you and your travel partners, your budget, and what makes a trip exciting/memorable/desirable and then trust Nikos. He'll plan things you would never find in a tour book and you'll wind up with the most beautifully unique trip. Seriously.

Hotel Review
Daphne's Club Hotel & Apartments
Xylokastro

Daphne has created the perfect little oasis on the Corinthian Gulf in Greece. She has everything you need and lots more than you didn't even know you needed — like the most beautiful and delicious breakfast buffet in all of Greece.

Santorini Sailing Cruise & meal on Board
Santorini Sailing Cruise & meal on Board
Santorini

This was downright magical. By this point in the trip, we were a little tired, and having 5 hours of lying on a sailboat, drinking wine, and eating a fabulous meal was exactly what we needed. Also, Cosmos was fabulous. He told great stories, taught us the history of the Santorini Caldera, and looked like the perfect handsome sailor.

Dear Kasey,
thank you for your amazing review!

It's true that from the time we had a call to discuss in detail about your trip, I felt that you and your partner knew what you wanted and were open to exploring the best available options in Greece, which is always a 'bliss' for me.

I'm really happy and proud of the result of 'our' trip (I'm also 'there' all the time!) and I cannot thank you enough for pointing out aspects of a trip that can make a difference and a memorable yet romantic adventure, like the handmade approach on 'kneading' trips for every traveler, the balance between exploring and relaxing and so on. I'm also thrilled that you were open to discovering unknown locations of my country, such as the biggest wine region of Greece, the mountainous side (which is 80% of the country!) while enjoying famous locations such as Santorini during the same trip.

Moreover, I have to admit that you are 'gift travelers', cause you were available to discuss and reply to critical questions during important stages of planning your trip. This was a gift for me, as I knew clearly what you prefer (or not) and I felt confident to suggest experiences and locations that even locals do not know, and that I learned from my field trips during the last 12 years. It's one of the reasons for me offering handmade trips: to show travelers from around the globe how anyone can meet the world in Greece. And -by reading your review- I can say that it's rewarding :)

I'll be really happy to meet you both anytime in the future. You are an inspiration on how to explore and enjoy life. Seriously!
