The Hellenic National Tourism Organization in Greece has implemented a Crisis Resilience tax applicable to hotel accommodations from January 1, 2018. This fee is €5 for 3-star hotels, €10 for 4-star hotels, and €15 for 5-star hotels, charged per room per night and not included in the overall tour cost. Guests are responsible for paying this tax directly to the hotel prior to departure.

The segment of the tour focused on the Greek Islands is designed to be semi-independent. While accommodations, ferry tickets, and transfers to and from ferry ports are provided for you, there will be no tour leader or guide during this phase. This portion of the journey invites you to unwind and soak in the relaxed atmosphere of the Greek Islands.

Guided tours in Greece are conducted in English and also available in French or Italian.

This itinerary may be altered based on the ferry schedules in Greece. Although it is infrequent, ferry schedules can change, and certain departures may be canceled without prior notice. In such cases, the itinerary will be adjusted, which may result in spending more or less time in certain locations than initially planned.

Child Discount : Children aged 8 to 10 sharing a room with two paying adults receive a 30% discount and will be provided with a foldable bed.

Child Discount : Children aged 0 to 2 sharing a room can stay for free and will not have a separate bed.

This is a Semi-Independent Tour. Our Semi-Independent Tours are crafted for travelers who wish to enjoy the flexibility of exploring at their own pace while benefiting from expertly guided day trips in every destination.

These tours perfectly blend independence with guided insights — you will travel on your own between cities but gain knowledge and perspectives from local professionals during organized excursions.

Although there will not be a full-time tour escort on the islands, our support team is always accessible — you will have 24/7 local assistance through the emergency contact information included in your confirmation.

Your accommodations in Athens will be arranged at one of the following hotels: Athenaeum Grand Hotel, Golden Age Hotel, President Hotel, Parthenon Hotel, or Kydon Hotel, or similar properties, subject to availability. Rest assured, all accommodations will be of a 4-star caliber.

By opting for our tours, you are not only exploring Türkiye’s rich cultural and natural heritage but also making a meaningful contribution to protecting marine life. For every booking amounting to USD 1,000 or more, we donate to the care and feeding of injured sea turtles, specifically the Caretta caretta (loggerhead turtles).

Spring & Autumn: Light layers are ideal, paired with a jacket and comfortable footwear for walking.

Summer: Opt for airy and breathable clothing, complemented by a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen for sun protection.

Winter: Prepare with warm attire, especially in Eastern Turkey (Kars, Van, etc.) where temperatures may be quite low.

While visiting churches and mosques, it is essential to dress modestly. Women should wear clothing that covers their shoulders and knees, while men should refrain from wearing shorts that are above the knee.
