It was great having everything planned for me and took the stress out of it. Thank you to Dimitri for being my tour guide. I had such a good time and was well looked after.

I loved this tour! Our tour guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. The accommodation and excursions were very good as well. I would say that the opportunities to do things on your own were slim and restaurants we ate at were quite expensive so don’t be afraid to go and get a gyros before the group meals if you are on a budget!

Well organized, beautiful hôtels, good recommandation for restaurant. Nice to see the night life and party. Would have take more time visiting the streets and for the hike in santorini (i feel like i have seen more of the greece during my cruise because of that). Somethime it felt rushed. The days are more organized than I though. You'll have to pay for the bus, and club entry. If you're on a budget maybe it is not the best idea. And don't spend a lot of cash on the alcool in IOS cause it is water (or almost).

If you’re traveling to Greece for the first time, this is a great option because you don’t have to worry about finding places to go, booking transportation, dealing with language barriers, etc. So many fun events were planned, from adventurous hikes and tubing to bar crawls and delicious dinners. The only negative is that there’s not much freedom to do what you want outside of what they have planned. We were told that we were “not allowed” to leave lunch to explore a different spot of the city. We were rushed through the shops of Paros and didn’t have time to just wander around and explore, which is one of the best parts of traveling. Felt kind of like having a babysitter even though we’re all adults. Overall though it was a great experience.

I recently had the pleasure of joining an island hopping tour around Greece, and it was an unforgettable experience! Our host, Marianna, was absolutely fantastic. From the moment we got to the tour, her warm and welcoming personality made everyone feel at ease.

Our guide Yianni was great, he has great experience with a wealth of knowledge to match. He was able to answer all our questions plus more and made our tour fun to be apart of. Most of the accommodation was good and in the right locations and had great views in Paros.

It was fun, but felt like there were lots of costs added that could have been done more cheaply e.g shuttle to town and back could have been the public bus. We also went to lots of bars that weren’t very full, so would rather have spent time at busier, more social ones. Loved Mykonos!
- Rosie , 12/09/2023 10:24, Travelled with Friend/s
Honestly, this trip was a bit of a let down. Our group absolutely loved each other but did NOT vibe with our tour leader at all. The communication about the plan was always super confusing and awkward. We felt forced into group dinners at places we didn’t want to eat at. Santorini section of trip needs to be completely reworked. The accommodation is awful, and we really should spend both nights in Oia, which is the only cool part of Island. iOS and Paros were great- wouldn’t change much there. Mykonos- absolutely loved staying at paradise resort because of the day club party, the rooms are a bit gross though. For the Mykonos town night- we were forced to start at 6 pm and return home by 1am because the $20 euro pp shuttle was our only choice. Our tour leader took us to empty bars and then an awful club that no one wanted to go to. I wish we knew more about the many clubs close to our resort ( Tropicana and Cavo Paradiso) and Scandinavian bar in myk

Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to review your tour in Greece with us this summer. It's great to read you enjoyed Ios, Paros and your stay in Mykonos! Feedback is very important to us, so we certainly take your points raised and suggestions on board - these will be passed to the Operations Manager in Greece so that we can make improvements where possible. The guide will make recommendations on places to eat throughout the tour but these are not compulsory. The group does usually prefer staying together, however you are welcome to do your own thing and eat where you'd like to. Thank you very much for joining us!
Amalia was our tour guide and she was funny, honest, genuine and unique. She gave us all the right information on the days ahead, excursions and also answered any and all questions we had about the tour. The people were all nice and I made a couple friends, the accomodation in Athens was great, Santorini could have been better, Ios was good but Paros was the nicest for sure and Mykonos was good considering we were right on the resort near the parties! The transfers to and from the ports was well organised and in an AC bus. The only complaint I would have is that we had to settle the bill ourselves every dinner which was a bit hard when some people didn’t have cash on them and etc. Also our group was a bit disappointed with the “Greek Night in Paros” as the restaurant did not serve 3 courses of authentic Greek food: it was Greek salad, bread and a mini beef roast with potatoes, as a Greek myself I was very disappointed with this. All up it was a good experience for island hopping!
- Zena , 11/08/2023 08:22, Travelled Solo
It was really well organised Wish I knew that you could stay in Mykonos rather than going back to Athens and that the 9 day and 11 is the same just that Athens is missed out. Wasting two days just to travel to the starting and ending island. I didn’t like how it was almost complusory that you had to come to the dinners. Tour guide was amazing and super lovely!

Hi there - thank you for taking the time to review your tour with us this summer in Greece. It is great to read you felt the tour was well organised and you were happy with your Tour Guide Amalia, this is fantastic! It's important to us to be able to offer a return tour from Athens as many guests joining us find it easier to book return flights to Athens, instead of flying into Santorini and out from Mykonos. Sometimes, this can make travel to Greece cheaper than booking the two individual flights. The Tour Guide will recommend restaurants each day for your evening meal and we often see on tours the group will decide to dine together. As this is not an inclusion, it is not compulsory to have the evening meal together if you'd prefer to dine elsewhere. Your feedback is important to us, so I will be sure to pass the suggestions you have noted onto our Operations Manager in Athens, thank you for this. We're pleased you had a wonderful time and hope you will join us again in the future.
I had such an amazing experience doing the 11 day tour. Everything was planned out really well and it exceeded my expectations. The only downfall is there is a lot of unnecessary waiting (waiting at dinner an hour after everyone completed) could’ve used this time to explore the town etc. I’ve made some incredible memories that will last a lifetime. Would definitely recommend to my friends in the future. Thanks again for the experience 🙌🏽
- Peta, 05/08/2023 14:25, Travelled Solo
The tour was fun! Santorini was a bit too rushed and the restaurant choices were a bit too pricey for our group as we would have preferred street food to save money. Us as a group enjoyed being able to have free time in ios and Paros to explore on our own. More time in Santorini free exploring would have been a lot better. We only got 20-30 minutes in oia, would have loved to watch the sunset from here.

There is a lot of room for improvement for this tour and to be honest it was rather disappointing. The 9 and 11 day tours are combined, which was not mentioned and despite this, the leader did not entertain any ice breakers. Instead, the group got to know each other in time and naturally groups formed. Our tour leader was unorganised and often failed to wait for all members to be present when giving information. The tour leader proceeded to get angry/frustrated when asked follow up questions or asking to repeat by members who were not present when the info was given. The accomodation in Mykonos was extremely unappealing having to shower literally over the toilet. For the price you pay, there is still lots of extra expenses not included. Overall a great experience and Greece is beautiful however this feedback needs to be given.

Thank you for your review - we appreciate your comments and suggestions for improvement, which we take seriously. We also appreciate your recognition of the overall great experience and the beauty of Greece. Regarding the combination of our 9 and 11-day tours, we acknowledge the importance of fostering group interaction, and I have checked with your Tour Leader who confirmed the merge of the two groups was communicated from the beginning of the tour and introductions were completed around the pool. Upon checking our internal records, I can see that a whatsapp group was created by your Tour Leader, and a hand-written itinerary for each day was displayed at each location, then photographed and shared in the whatsapp group daily. In regards to the accommodation in Mykonos, we do have in-depth information about the accommodation style on our website for your perusal. Thank you for bringing all of this to our attention.
This tour should be rebranded as a party tour as all emphasis is put on going out and partying and very minimal on actually seeing the sights of Greece. This was an extremely expensive and not worth it. Would 100% recommend booking yourself as the accomodation was also disturbing or in the middle of nowhere.

Thank you for your review. We are disheartened to hear of your disappointment with your tour. We aim for a varied balance of sightseeing, adventure, relaxing and partying by offering included walking tours and included/optional excursions such as; Volcano Hike, Speedboat Safari, Traditional Lunch and Paros Day Trip. Our accommodation style does vary and detailed information can be found on our website, so you are aware prior to your arrival at each location. We hope that you enjoyed some aspects of the tour and these issues didn't detract from your overall enjoyment.
I had the best time on this tour! Tour guide was super lovely, activities were fun, night life was amazing. The only thing that was disappointing was the cost of public transportation. I thought that by going on this tour I would be guaranteed transport however we every now and then we had to pay to catch a public bus or ferry. As well as a private transfer on the last night. I just wish they advertised that so I knew.
- Nikki, 02/07/2023 11:08, Travelled with Family
- More organisation and better time management. I've used other companies before who provided clearer plans for the day which created greater independence for people to create their own plans and be with the group when wanted. Kind of felt like I had a baby sitter which I didn't need...

Tour guide treated us as if we were children, if we decided not to do something he would consistently try to force us to do what he wanted. He panicked very easy, which made people uncomfortable. Our group were also consistently provided with incorrect information from our tour guide, leading to multiple embarrassing situations that were easily avoidable. I was also informed we were supposed to have a different tour guide but got bumped so this tour guide could have his first tour. We had less people in our tour than all others advertised, genuinely looks as if we paid full price ($2500 AUD) to be a tester group. The tour it’s self looked some what like the photos and videos posted by Med Experience online however the Paros excursion was exceptionally misleading. In addition, there were certain activities advertised in the itinerary that were never offered, such as the wind surfing.

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to review your Greek Island Hopping Tour and for exploring Greece with us this season. Feedback is very important to us, so we have passed your comments along the relevant teams so that improvements can be made and your points raised can be communicated with the Tour Manager. We are very surprised to read that you did not like the balance of free time as we regularly receive 5* reviews that mention the balance of free time, exploring and partying is perfect, however I do understand this will be different for everyone. I have checked and wind surfing is not something we are able to offer at this stage, we are in the process of having this removed from the website, so I do apologise regarding this, Megan. Upon checking internal reporting systems, all other aspects of the tour and excursions offered were as they should have been, including the excursions offered in Paros. We would like to thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
Spyros was the best tour guide possible! Couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Such a great experience and definitely the trip of a lifetime.
- Taylor, 01/09/2019 08:13, Travelled Solo
Hi Taylor, thank you for your 5-star rating. We totally agree Spyros is amazing and we will make sure he knows how much of an awesome experience you had on the trip!
The islands were beautiful and I had a great time. Katarina had a lot of knowledge about the islands and tried so hard to ensure we had the best time ever. It could have been improved by not always being at the ports super early as this was a lot of waiting around, but I get that the hotels set when they will do the transfers. Overall a great time and would recommend!
- Kerryann Baker, 31/08/2019 09:50,
Hi Kerryann, Thank you for your review. We're glad you enjoyed your experience on our tour, seeing some of the best islands in world. We will share your comments with your guide Katarina, thank you. We are always looking to improve wherever we can, so we appreciate your comments and suggestions. We're happy that overall, you had a great time and would recommend us to others.
Our tour manager Kriton was very knowledgeable and very sweet! He knew a lot about each island and the history of Greece. He was very friendly and had a great positive attitude. The tour overall was good and fun, but the some of the accommodations were bad (Athens, Santorini & Mykonos). It was easy to access the main attractions of each island by the arranged transfers.

Hi Emily, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are glad your tour manager Kriton was everything we want in our tour managers; knowledgeable, friendly, positive and fun. We appreciate that some of the accommodation venues aren't to everyone's tastes, but these are handpicked for their location and overall ease in travelling to all of the destinations in a timely manner. We are pleased that overall you enjoyed the tour. Thank you.
The tour was awesome, had a lovely group + the tour guide Kriton was so much fun and always there to answer questions. Would recommend to others

The tour was organized. The smaller group made it so nice as it felt like we were a family. The excursions were definitely worth the money. Really a value for money tour. So.etime felt the waits for the Ferry took up too much time as we always left the hotel like 3 hours before and had nothing to do until the Ferry.

Hi Kirsten, Thank you for the great review. We are trying hard to get the perfect balance on our tours with minimal wait times, so we appreciate your comments here. We will use this for future improvements. In saying this, we are delighted you enjoyed yourself and thought you had value for money.
The group of people were fantastic and the islands were beautiful. The extra excursions offered were also interesting and good value for money.

Our tour guide - Elen - made the trip. She made sure everything went so smoothly and looked after us so well. Her knowledge of Greece and her passion for ensuring we had the best time was brilliant and she also provided some hilarious moments along the way! Anyone who ends up her her going forward is so lucky.. you'll be in great hands!!

Loved the bonding experience and had the best tour guide, Odysseus. We were able to experience Greece to the maximum mainly thankfully to Oddy! As far as improvements, the Athens hostel was not great as it’s far from the nice midtown area and I did not feel safe walking back at night. Additionally, the hotel was also not great so I think most people would pay for a little more to upgrade the hostel.
