First and foremost, we both would like to express our sincerest appreciation for the excellent service that you provided in arranging our vacation. Being our first visit to Greece, we did not know what to expect, but after this vacation we will in all probability make a return visit. Thank you very much for putting this fantastic vacation package together, we were thrilled with what you organized for us.
While in Athens, the tour packages were very informative and educational. Our tour guides were always knowledgeable and extremely courteous. To be able to open our curtains at the Astor Hotel and look directly up at the Acropolis is a vision that will remain with us for the rest of our lives. The central location close to Syntagma Square could not have been better.
Santorini was breathtaking and was beyond our wildest dreams. We rented a car for a week and were able to tour the whole island. Our stay at the Villa Odyssey was a speical higlight of our vacation. Our hostess Maria made us feel like we were special guests in her home. We highly recommend that you add Villa Odyssey to your list of preferred accommodations on Santorini Island.
Paros was also relaxing and we rented a car for a day touring the island. The beach in Parikia was excellent.
Transportation provided by the taxis for our pickup at the hotel, airport, ferry ports was very precise and the drivers were always punctual and waiting with our name on a placard.
Once again thank you very much for arranging our memorable worry free vacation We will not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone from our area that may be interested in visiting beautiful Greece.
Sincerest best wishes,

Dear Apostolos
My wife Marlene and I (Charles) would like to express our sincere appreciation for your very efficient communication and service to us in all matters of arrangements from beginning to end of the preparations for the Greek Vacation we had on AquaMarine of Louis Cruise Lines from June 15 – 19.
We appreciated that you gave us accurate and very prompt service on all our questions before the cruise, both through email as well as personally when you met us at the hotel in Athens where we stayed for 2 nights before the cruise.
Your communication was efficiently succinct and clear, assuring the “unsure” holidayers such as ourselves … all matters of concern to us.
You tended to our queries without hesitation and with personal concern for which we were very grateful since we were the go-between for ourselves as well as our friends joining us from N. Ireland who also depended on us to know the details even of their questions.
Thank you very much indeed. We will without hesitation be enthusiastic to refer others to you when we meet people who have an interest in those holiday offers.
Sincerely and “thank you” once again.
