It makes me want to travel back to Greece and explore more locations within the country
07/10/2024
I really enjoyed this trip but I would prefer to remove the Naxos boat trip and instead have beach time. And the cheese/farm trip felt uncomfortable and unnecessary. I would have preferred to separate it from the winery trip or remove the farm visit.

It was a feel-good trip from the first to the last day with great experiences that will stay with you for a long time. Not having to take responsibility and do the planning for once. In general, the right mix of active and enjoyable moments with wonderfu...

I had an exceptional, once-in-a-lifetime and unique experience on the G Adventures Walking in the Greek Islands tour. I loved the experience of not being the 'Chief Experience Officer' of the holiday for once, and was truely able to relax

We will definitely use G Adventures again. If Murat does an Istanbul/Crete tour, let us know. He really was fantastic. We also had a great group of folks to share this experience with. Overall, we just had an amazing experience!
