Hi Apostolos:
Nice to hear from you again…
Your service is good and also i like your arrangement and the transfer.
However i really not like the short hours in Santorini. It is not enough to explore Fira and Oia with only 2 hours. I really hope that the Cruise will revise the number of hours stay in Santorini, so that tourist will not be so rush.
Definitely I will recommend my friends for your tour 🙂
Thanks and regards

Hi Apostolos,
We are still excited from our trip. Greece was beautiful. We loved the cruise. It was a great and affordable way to see the Greek Isles. We tried to fit a lot in on our Euro trip/honeymoon.
It was great to have you meet us and arrange a cab to pick us up at the port once the vacation was over to put a face to the phone calls and emails. We made our tightly scheduled flight after the cruise with plenty of time to spare. The cab driver was there waiting for us with our names on a sign.
We want to come back to Santorini especially and spend a full week sometime because the view alone was outstanding. With all we fit in to our trip, it was nice to have our bags and lodging all in one place for a few days and the travel taken care of for us so we could just relax and catch some sun. I tell people Turkey was one of the places I was most surprised by. That was a great stop with the Bazzars, carpet-making, Mary’s house, and the ruins of Ephesus.
All the islands offered something a little different and we loved them all. Becca trusted me to book everything and surprise her with this trip.
The entire vacation surpassed any dream I had of it. Thank you so much for your part.
We really appreciate it!

Hi Apostolos and Spiros
Tour Osiris – August 2010.
Well where do I start. This was the best organized holiday we have ever been on. From the start being met at the airport by Apostolos to the finish we were met and given instructions/vouchers on pick up times and drop offs and everything we needed to know and even on coming back from Cairo to Athens were met and then greeted at our hotel by Spiros to explain the next part of our holiday.
Every pick up was on time or even early and we didn’t have to worry about anything. The quality of hotels (Titania in Athens, Triumph in Cairo and Volcano View Hotel on Santorini), tour guides, tour companies in Cairo and Santorini, cruise ships both on the Nile (Ramadis 1) and the Greek Islands (Aquamarine) were better than 4 star and we had no complaint on anything.
The feeling of such personalized attention having our own private guide was exceptional.
We would thoroughly recommend booking through this company and I was very skeptical from the start booking such a big tour over the internet but Apostolos always answered every question and email and even came in from his day off to answer my email. He accommodated the many changes we made and added to our holiday itinerary which was so easy to do with this company. Nothing was too much trouble. His advice on hotels on Santorini was invaluable and we had the perfect setting for our final days in Greece before our long trip home.
THANK YOU EASYTRAVELLER.GR, APOSTOLOS AND SPIROS for the best holiday we have had and it is the first holiday I have not wanted to come home from.

We do have done many trips in the past and will say that this was one of the best that we have done. At each city there was a friendly person to meet us ready to answer questions. The hotels were very good with excellent facilities. The price that we paid was a very good value for the hotels, excursions, transfers, and your service!!!
I highly recommend your services.
