Great experience - Our driver Spiros did a great job, and Jordan the guide was very helpful and we especially enjoyed his stories about the ancient sites we visited. He is very knowledgeable and made the trip very interesting.

Opa 2019 trip - The trip was an awesome learning experience. The tour guide was knowledgeable, provided historic details and was pleasant. We love the tour and the places visited, we fall in love with Naphlio.

Dip in a myth and history! - Seeing the history and myths combined in one is the most memorable element of this trip. Archaeologists' dreams are in front of our own eyes, and they are the genuine gems! Starting with marveling the Corinth canal, followed by the beehive tomb of kings, glories of the past in Mycenae and Epidaurus, the trip truly ensures a fun filled day. Our guide Jordan gave us the survey of the Greek history, and it really helped to enjoy the trip in a historical context. Worth a day!!

A Nice Day of Greek Historical Sites - Our guide Jordan was very good. We had a very nice and informative day. Mycenae and Epidaurus were awesome. The only complaint would be that in retrospect we would have preferred to take our lunch in the town of Nafplion rather than a nearby hotel. The town had numerous lunch options in the very nice waterfront area.

Great sights - A great day, seeing some great sight knowledgeable guide. Lunch was ok, although chaotic. Our group didn't fill the coach. If the bus were full travelling so far would have been hard

Average at best - We got to visit Mycenae, Epidaurus and Nafpoli which was lovely. The tour was average, a lot of the times we couldn’t hear the guide and the English/French translations made it confusing. What we really didn’t like was the 1 hour stop to Amalia Hotel where we were forced to have lunch. We didn’t opt for lunch as the reviews said they were bad and instead ordered a coffee and juice, which ended up being expensive at 7 and 6 euros. We stayed at Nafplio for 30min where we could have had a lovely lunch by the sea. Overall, the worst tour we had on our trip to Europe
