Athens Vacation Packages

The birthplace of democracy, the capital of Greece, Athens captures the heart of its visitors. It’s a vibrant city, a center for arts, history, and culture. Whether you decide to visit the historical sites, relax in the National Gardens or explore hidden gems such as Anafiotika, there are a lot of things to do in the capital of Greece. The Acropolis is a UNESCO World Heritage Site nestled on an abrupt rocky outcrop above the city and has world-renowned Classical landmarks that people spend whole lifetimes waiting to see in the flesh. The pinnacle of these is of course the Parthenon, but The Propylaea, the Erechtheion and the Temple of Athena Nike are indispensable, by skipping the queues guests can get enthralling inside facts and titbits about ancient Greek democracy.

Greek Island Hopping | SemiPrivate with 4* Hotels | 11 Days

We were met by very professional and friendly team members at every stop. Hotels were all wonderful

• In-depth Cultural

Classical Tour of Greece and Nauplion - 5 Days

Hotels were good, food was good. The bus driver was very skilled and the tour guide was excellent. Some of the hotels had amazing views from the balcony which was not expected. The hotel in Nafplio was especially nice with a spectacular view of the sea. The only negative was the undisclosed stops at various locations - such as the clay pot making "factory" and the icon "factory" which were basically tourist traps designed to sell stuff. After the tour guide did a little overview, we only had 20 free minutes to explore Mycenae which was one of the places I really wanted to see on this tour. We subsequently spent 50 minutes at the clay pot "factory". The one undisclosed stop that was not too bad was the one with the wine tasting and only because it had wine tasting.

Sailing Greece - Athens to Mykonos

It was a good experience, we had a good group of people and had lots of fun. Unfortunately the wind changed the islands we planned on going to multiple times but it was all good in the end. Ended up spending 2 nights in Mykonos rather than the 1.

• Island Hopping

Athens, Santorini & Mykonos with 3 Guided Tours | SemiPrivate | 10 Days

We had a wonderful time visiting Greece. Dilimar from Travel Zone was great to work with from the beginning and very accommodating when I asked for a couple of changes to our Itinerary. The only complaint that I have is after we arrived, we found that our tours in Mykonos and Santorini were rescheduled on the last day instead of the first day. If they had been scheduled as originally planned, I may have revisited some of the places that we stopped at. All in all though Travel Zone did a great job. Nice hotels, all pickup and drop offs on time and the tour guides at each stop were excellent.

Best of Greece

It was a great trip. I feel like I got to see the essential Greece with some must sees and hidden gems!

Greece Classic Tour

We really enjoyed our 4 day tour. Our tour guide Thomas was very knowledgeable with Greek history. Our bus driver was very experienced also. The food was wonderful, hotels were exceptional. The one thing we were disappointed, we heard a lot about Greek mythology, being American Christians, we were hoping to hear more about Bible times.

• Christmas & New Year

i can confidently say this trip would not have been the same without the help and guidance from this tour group. no matter the time they always had quick and helpful responses. everything was organized and any change was fixed immediately. excellent customer service. absolutely beautiful hotels, will 100% be back to the harmony boutique in mykonos and the athens gate they were in the absolute perfect location just around the corner from everything you could ask for.

Athens to Santorini

The customer service experience before the trip was terrible! However, when on the trip our lead, Georgia, was absolutely incredible. She showed us parts of Greece that the locals would know. It was clear that she had a genuine interest and passion in doing what she was and had great pride in Greece. If you could get your customer service taken care of you would have a fantastic tour service.

Mainland Greece Discovery

The area covered was perfect. The guide was fantastic. Her knowledge thorough and well delivered with great personality. She had the patience of a saint!

Classic Greece

Our trip to Greece was very well organized. The tour guide Matthew worked very hard, and we were picked up at the airport and sent back without a hitch. When we got to the hotel, a tour rep Effie came to greet us and explain every part of the tour as well as what to do in Athens on our free days. Hotels were as discribed and comfortable. The other tour groupees were fun to be with and very considerate and nice. Better then expected, thanks to all the tour operators! We had a great time!

Greek Island Explorer (10 Days)

We had a very good time and had a wonderful tour agent to help us all the way. She went above the call of duty every day for us all. The only event that was beyond the control of Tour Radar is the hotel in Mykonos which considered a lower level room as a 50 Euro upgrade for seniors and persons with disabilities. They preferred to leave those rooms vacant than allow them at the same rate.

Cultural Athens & Island Hopping Mykonos - Santorini (Self-guided)

I am glad that I took this package. It helped us have a stress free trip. Transfer from day 1 was seamless. I want to mention Kristos, the driver that picked us up from the airport who gave us a lot of useful information that kicked our trip to a good start. He served as a tour guide from the airport to the hotel. The hotels we stayed in were located near the must see places, especially our hotel in Athens. The person at the reception in all the hotels we stayed in was very helpful. George of Dot Travel was very prompt in answering my queries before our trip. It was a good package to take. We were satisfied.

• €50 deposit on some dates Some departure dates offer you the chance to book this tour with a lower deposit.

We had a fantastic tour of Greece mainland & a few of the Islands. Dina our Tour leader was absolutely amazing - best Tour leader by far!! Only complaint is the hotel in Kalambaka which is not up to standard - otherwise I can recommend the tour to anyone.

Grand Classical Tour Of Greece plus Mani and Monemvasia (Small group - In depth culture/Historical/Nature/Culinary guided tour)

It was the first time my family of 4 travelled to Greece and we were looking for an immersive cultural experience. The Grand Classical Tour Of Greece plus Mani and Monemvasia organized by Epos Travel & Tours was a truly unforgettable tour, offering a deep dive into Greek culture, history, mythology, nature and culinary delights. I am a nervous passenger but our amazing driver Anastasios made me feel safe and comfortable. Our knowledgeable guide George, provided us with fascinating insights into Greek history and mythology. We visited iconic landmarks such as the Palace of Mycenae, the Temple of Zeus, the Tomb of Phillip II, and explored ancient ruins that brought the stories of the past to life. My personal highlights also included our stay and swim at Monemvasia castle and visit to Meteora Monasteries. These gems provided breathtaking views of surrounding landscapes and incredible sunsets. The private tour allowed for a more intimate and personalised experience with accommodation in prime locations and delicious traditional meals accompanied by local beer and wines. George was caring and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience - he even organized the recovery of wines and souvenirs we had forgotten at Monomvasia! By the end of the trip George and Anastasios felt like family ❤️ I highly recommend this 10-day epic tour with Epos Travel for anyone wanting to discover the wonders of Greece!

Greece Island Hopper

This tour was amazing. Had the best time. It was awesome, but too short because I didn’t wanted to be over yet. Seen so much beautiful places and the tour guide Keira was the best. This was my 3th tour with trutravels and definitely going to book with tru again!

What people love about Greece Tours from Athens

The State Department Kept His Proposal on Course

Ben Krauss flew to Athens to propose to Shana Mansbach, with the help of her State Department colleagues, on the last stop of a European tour.

By Rosalie R. Radomsky

It never bothered Benjamin Andrew Krauss in the slightest if Shana Gabrielle Mansbach took a call from Nancy Pelosi, the speaker of the House, while they were out to dinner, and then ran off to draft a letter or a speech.

“That happened not infrequently,” said Mr. Krauss, 40, who knew the situation all too well. “This is the nature of what we do.”

The two Washington speechwriters had never met or heard of each other before connecting on the Hinge dating app in July 2020, during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.

“He was in his bubble, I was in mine,” said Ms. Mansbach, 31. “He has done amazing work mainly in the campaign space. I do government stuff.”

Until 2022, Ms. Mansbach had worked as the senior communications adviser and director of speechwriting for Ms. Pelosi. She is now a speechwriter and a senior adviser to Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken.

“We were mutually intrigued,” said Ms. Mansbach, who graduated summa cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in politics, philosophy and economics from the University of Pennsylvania.

Mr. Krauss, who has a bachelor’s degree in government from Dartmouth, is the chief executive of Fenway, a speechwriting and communications firm in Washington. In 2018, he was the chief political speechwriter for Joseph R. Biden Jr. Additionally, he has served as a speechwriter for the presidential campaigns of Hillary Clinton and Mr. Biden.

“I knew we would hit it off, and start dating,” Ms. Mansbach said. As they messaged and texted each other, Ms. Mansbach ultimately decided that it was best to keep her distance for the time being. After a five-year relationship ended in May 2020, she was in no rush to jump into another.

“She was very engaging, then she would temporarily vanish,” said Mr. Krauss, who patiently waited two months for their first date.

In September 2020, she rode a Capital Bikeshare bicycle to his condominium in Northeast Washington. After he greeted her with a big hug, they had cocktails on the roof of his rowhouse.

For the next six hours, they were never at a loss for words, but they paused long enough at the end of the evening for a kiss.

“It was a very good first kiss,” she said, and as she predicted they started seeing each other regularly.

A week later, she returned for his specialty “eggplant à la Ben,” she said, or eggplant Parmesan. “The house smelled wonderful.”

He loved cooking and prepared Eastern European dishes for her, like stuffed cabbage and borscht with sour cream. Ms. Mansbach, who grew up in Columbia, Md., made crab cakes and potato salad.

They took day trips around Washington, and in November he came up with something way more exotic: a weeklong trip to Bora Bora.

After some hesitation, and consultation with friends and family, she agreed to go in December.

“I’d wake up at 4 in the morning, and sit outside and watch the sun come up,” she said, recalling her time working remotely.

In May 2021, during a 10-day trip, they drove across Georgia (the country, not the state), where he had been for his first consulting job at a firm doing opinion research for its president, Mikheil Saakashvili, and they also stopped in eastern Kyiv in Ukraine.

In spring 2022, they adopted Sasha, a foxhound rescue, and that July Ms. Mansbach moved into his condo. “Any bit of uncertainty evaporated,” she said.

Mr. Krauss supported her as she geared up for her first marathon, and on the day of the race, in Philadelphia, he sprinted around the city with her friends and family to cheer her on.

“It was in the 20s that day, with 50-mile-an-hour gusts,” she said.

When they visited Mr. Krauss’s parents in Katonah, N.Y., in January 2023, they found the perfect wedding venue 20 minutes away, Blue Hill at Stone Barns in Pocantico Hills, N.Y., and booked it before their engagement.

In February 2023, keeping very much in character, he took off on a secret mission to Athens — his proposal.

“Her colleagues helped in the subterfuge,” he said, and with their help, he caught up with her in Athens at the end of a weeklong European State Department tour.

A colleague had called to tell Ms. Mansbach, who was about to go to sleep, that Mr. Blinken was about to toast staffers on the roof of their hotel — Hotel Grande Bretagne, which had a view of the Parthenon. So she went up there.

Instead, only Mr. Krauss was waiting for her and got down on one knee.

“I did not prepare a speech,” he said, and spoke from the heart.

They took “the long way home,” he said, celebrating in Berlin at a concert featuring her favorite violinist, Joshua Bell, and the next evening with dinner in Paris.

On April 13, Cantor Laura Stein officiated at Blue Hill at Stone Barns, before 150 guests while the couple stood under a huppah with the same tallit her parents were married under.

Skies over Athens have turned an orange hue as clouds of dust have blown across the Mediterranean Sea from the Sahara desert.

Strong southerly winds carried the dust clouds from North Africa and engulfed the Acropolis and other landmarks in Greece's capital on Tuesday.

People posted footage of the orange haze on X, formerly Twitter, saying they had witnessed the "weirdest sky".

One person in Athens posted footage of their windshield covered in sand.

Another branded the scene as "apocalyptic" as they posted footage of their surroundings on the social media platform.

The skies in eastern Libya, meanwhile, turned deep red, looking more like the surface of Mars than Earth.

The skies are predicted to clear on Wednesday as winds shift and move the dust, with temperatures dipping.

On Tuesday, the daily high in parts of the southern island of Crete topped 30C, more than 20C higher than what was registered in much of northern Greece.

The strong southerly winds over the past few days have also fanned unseasonal early wildfires in the country's south.
