Incredible Trip to Greece
Greece

Sep 6 - Sep 20, 2024
Our trip to Greece was incredible. The trip planning began a year in advance and our party of six (3 couples) wanted to experience all the history and culture of the Greek society. This became a reality after working with our local specialist, Angela (Aggeliki). She was absolutely amazing to work with. She provided a number of itineraries which included various locations and tours. After numerous questions and describing our desires, Angela developed an unforgettable vacation for us. She was responsive to all of questions before and during our trip. Any issues that arose, she would immediately offer suggestions and solutions. I cannot recommend Angela enough. She was friendly and truly has the best interests of her clients. We plan to visit Greece again, and we will definitely reach out to Angela and the KimKim Agency.
As for the tours on Athens, Naxos, Santorini and Crete, they were all exceptional. Each tour guide was professional, informative and engaging. Tour drivers were always on time and the buses were excellent Mercedes vans which suited our party of six perfectly. I would be remiss not to mention the names of each tour guide; Elena and Andres (Athens); Labrina and Elizabeth (Naxos); Felipe (Santorini); Roxani and Nicos (Crete). They were all great.
The accommodations at each location were also excellent. Ava Botique had a great location in Athens and was very spacious. 18 Grapes in Naxos was beautiful, but the service was unmatched; by far the best service during the trip. In fact, the owner of 18 Grapes invited the hotel residents back to his own personal vineyard to pick grapes and have a locally cooked dinner free of charge. We must have toasted "Yamas" a hundred times, drinking the wines of his vineyard and some Raki. The whole evening was so much fun. Iliovasilema Hotel in Santorini was also very nice. Dom Boutique Hotel in Crete was exceptional as well. Great location and very modern.
All in all, the trip was a 10 out of 10. I would absolutely recommend the KimKim Agency if you are planning a trip to Greece. Ask for Angela, she is the best.
Hotel Reviews
Great location and spacious rooms.
Probably our favorite hotel during our 15-day trip to Greece.
Hotel was beautiful, although some of the rooms were a bit on the smaller side.
Beautiful modern hotel in a great location. Shopping, restaurants and sites were within walking distance.
Activity Reviews
Tour guide (Elena) was great. It's a challenging tour if your if you have any physical limitations.
Andres was great. Had a lot of knowledge.
The tour was okay; but there is an additional charge to get to the Poseidon ruins.
Local cuisine was excellent. Enjoyed the walk throughout the city.
Another walking tour that required some stamina.
Would highly recommend this restaurant. The views were incredible.
Probably one of the best tours. What made it so memorable was our tour guide Felipe. He was very informative and so humorous. By the time the tour was over, we were certain we wanted him and our driver Philipos for the following day's tour.
It was a continuation of the previous day with Felipe (Guide) and Philipos (Driver). More fun and great sites.
Bill took us to a local restaurant. He was a great driver that was both friendly and funny.
This tour was amazing. Seeing these ancient ruins makes you appreciate how advanced the Minoan society was.
Although if rained on this tour, Nicos made it memorable nonetheless. He was very knowledgeable and engaging.
It so amazing to read what a great experience you had here in Greece with us and I am thrilled to be part of that.
Since you're planning to come back, I will be here and more than happy to assist you with your trip plan and make sure you see more amazing places and meet great people 😀
We will also meet up for dinner and wine - "Yamas" will be your new favorite word 😂🥂 I will definitely reach out to you... Read more
