Where to begin? This was our first trip to Greece and we utilized KimKim to help us navigate the many choices available to us. Rebecca was our local specialist and provided us with constant care while in Greece. She answered our questions, recommended activities and even made us reservations, all on the fly! We especially loved our guide, Apostolos, in Santorini, who took us everywhere, and the sailing cruise from Mykonos to Rhenia and Delos. Gorgeous stay at Petit Palace in Santorini (highly recommend!) and great food just about everywhere. Thank you, thank you — a carefree, incredible trip!

Hotel Reviews
Athens Starlight Hotel
Athina

Rooms are tiny, but clean. This is a great location for tourists in Athens—within walking distance from everything and lovely rooftop dining a block away. Staff was nice.

Authenticity & Character
Rooms are tiny to the point of uncomfortable.

Olia Hotel
Mykonos

These bungalows just across the street from the new port in Mykonos offer a lovely view, nice pool, and friendly, helpful staff. Their morning buffets are excellent. It’s a climb (lots of stairs) to some of the rooms. Access to the port for ferries into town or for Fast Ferries to other islands is wonderful; however, it is hard to get anywhere otherwise. During the busy season, no taxis can be found, buses are packed, and walking alongside the highway is (very) sketchy. If you don’t have a car (God help you for driving in Mykonos), getting to the famous beaches is nearly impossible.

Blown away by this new Holiday Inn not far from the Athens Airport! Generous and lovely accommodations and a very nice bar/restaurant.

Agave Santorini Design Boutique Hotel
Santorini

We stayed at Petit Palace. This is one of those built-in-the-cliff, gorgeous Santorini hotels you see in pictures, and we loved it! Beautiful room with hot tub and balcony overlooking the caldera. Great restaurant, pool was perfect, and the staff treated us with great care.

Mykonos

This was a great adventure and gave us a true feel for Mykonos and Greece in general. We boarded the beautiful Sunfos sailing vessel, kicked off our shoes, and enjoyed an incredible sail to the island of Rhenia, where we snorkeled, swam and feasted. The on-board lunch was exceptional, staff attentive, and ship just stunning. We then sailed to Delos, where we embarked on an archeological tour of the island. Just breathtaking! Loved, loved this tour—a day well spent.

Santorini

We already miss our tour guide, Apostolos, who was informative, flexible and just plain fun! Stopped to see the sights in Fira, walked the streets of Olia and drove up to the highest point in Santorini for the views. We had the perfect tapas lunch and skimmed the beach before heading over to Santos Winery for a great tasting experience. It was another day well spent—highly recommend!

Apostolos was accommodating and gave us great information about the island, history and culture. Great energy!!
Transport
There were only two of us, plus our guide, so we drove in a nice car instead of a big bus.
