Kimkim Trip Reviews for Greece

This is a small hotel. It is well kept and up-to-date and is in the middle of the old part of Athens. It is near the major sites. The staff is friendly, helpful and welcoming.

Modern hotel great service, breakfast and it has a small pool. The best is the view of the water. It overlooks the old harbor, and easy walk away

A very good hotel on the edge of the caldera in Fira, Santorini. No lift, however, so if you have trouble climbing stairs you should reserver a ground floor room. It is close by to the tourist shopping area and many restaurants. A short walk away on the street 25is Martiou is Svoronos Bakery which is open 24/7 (if you get a sweet tooth in the middle of the night) Also on that street is Fira Market a nice mini supermarket which has a good selection and prices much better than in the tourist area. Be prepared for walking, many paths are really steep.

Good hotel with v good view Great selection only the location for food is a little lacking

Beautiful experience made better by our driver Thanassis, who helped us avoid crowds and shared interesting information about the area and history.

Our driver Thanassis made the experience more wonderful by sharing information and making the drive very pleasant. All was perfect and he made all appointments on time, etc. Highly recommend. Our guide for Delphi was great, too. Made it very interesting and personal.

Gina, our guide, was engaging, fun, and friendly. Made the tour a really memorable one. Food was terrific everywhere. Bonus was hearing about the history and culture of the island and the tour of the labyrinthine castle.

Absolutely loved ghe experience. Manos was a fun, kind, informed, and very engaging guide and partner for the day’s activities. Bikes worked so well, great way to see the island. Really an insider’s glimpse of life on Naxos. Loved it. Highly recommend Aurelia Bikes and Manos’s tour.

Luxury accommodation with a roof top Acropolis view. Elevator and very knowledgeable staff. In the heart of everything.

Lovely accommodations and the yummiest breakfast

Fun themed rooms . Enjoyed the atmosphere very much.

Beautiful, Be prepared for steps. Challenging for hip and knee replacements. Delicious breakfast Gorgeous rooftop eternity jacuzzi.

A delightful choice

An amazing and “other worldly “ experience

Dionysus was an exceptional guide.

Erai was our guide and he was so personable and loved sharing his city. It was a joy.

Yoda was a wonderful guide.

Vista Yachting. Such fun.

Great to experience the Greek mainland at our own pace. So fun.

Worth every minute. So interesting. Very windy.

NLH is in an excellent location. Easy to walk around for dinner and attractions. Only minor issue was the noise at night from the street below.

Great location with inconsistent but adequate parking options. Suite #7 was nice, although the door was only about 5 feet high. Breakfast was outstanding.

Good location. Staff very helpful and reasonable price for our laundry. Not hard to walk into town.

Perfectly paced and hit all the right places. Our guide (Maria) was extremely enthusiastic and on top of things.

There are not enough stars to rate this activity. It was the best of our trip. The olive oil tasting was interesting and the guide was a professional who explained how she did her work. The tour of the facility was good. The meal after the tasting was the best of the trip. Incredible home cooked food!

The guide was very knowledgeable and really explained the site and its significance. Could not have been better.

Messene was an unexpected gem. It is a BIG site which really let you feel the extent and layout of the town.

Hitting the highlights of the Acropolis and Agora with a strong tie-in to mythology. Very interesting!

Delphi was interesting and worth visiting.

We definitely had interest in Archaeology and the site fit that bill well. Many folks might not like that it was just an excavation site, but that was part of its appeal to us. The guide helped explain what we were seeing.

Large scale!

This site is older so you have to use your imagination a bit more outside of the tombs. However it is well worth visiting.

Good lunch and interesting talk about local life

I nice walk along the coast.

plane delayed, didn't make it

A nice tour of the site and a winery. Really multi-course excellent meal.

Very much worth taking in!

great hotel and beautiful views

great hotel, a few problems with hot water. They were able to repair by second day. Very kind staff and beautiful sunsets.

wonderful hotel, staff and views

comfortable , great location, staff so friendly and helpful

we were able to walk to the Acropolis, guide met us at hotel and was full of history to share

Iakovos (Jacob) was the best historian and poet. Showed us many special sites with history. Of couse the wine tour was delious.

loved the tour, Manos was a wonderful guide, kept us safe and shared much about the island. Shared with us a great restaurant with live Greek music and fresh fish . Thest sunset ever

Excellent central location. Staff very responsive and accommodating. Rooms clean, spaceous. Lack of breakfast was only negative.

Excellent location and views. Staff very responsive. Breakfast was superb and served right in the patio! Rooms were big and comfortable.

Rooms were small and the views were very limited. Breakfast was superb and the view from the roof top restaurant were excellent. Staff friendly and attentive. Location was excellent - walking distance to most sites.

Guide knowledgeable and the acropolis is amazing.

This is the only tour we would change. The guide and driver were excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. The tour involved too much travel/car time. Multiple stops were very brief and did not add a lot to the experience. The kids were disappointed we were not able to spend more time at Lake Vouliagmeni and go swimming. The stop there was no more than a quick picture. The cultural center stop was brief and did not add value. This could have been skipped. Cape sounion and the temple of poseidon was worth seeing and a great place to see the sunset.

Highlight of our trip. The bikes were comfortable and made navigating the mountainous roads a breeze. Was truly an authentic trip into rural/agricultural naxos. The guide was great, very personable and engaging for kids and adults alike. Enjoyed the Olive oil museum, cooking class, and hike to the Kouros statue. The tour was un-rushed and even ran over the allotted time.

The kids (young and old) really enjoyed the farm animals. The owner was welcoming and engaging. Enjoyed the distillery as well as a very tasty and authentic meal in a small inland village.

This was our longest tour and to be honest I was worried we would be tired of it by the end. I was however, engaging from beginning to end. Great sampling of all that the island of santorini had to offer and he rich history that as been uncovered with the excavation of the Minoan Ruins. Beach time was great as was the wine tasting at a beautiful vineyard. Everyone we encountered is welcoming and accommodating. The views on this tour were second to none.

The catamaran cruise is very popular with many boats on the water. This is for good reason, the experience was great. Swimming was a bit cold, but was nice to have the option to swim at several locations. The crew was very friendly and the meal was excellent. We were rewarded with the best sunset of the trip. This was a repeatable experience.

Very nice hotel, clean and friendly helpful staff. Our room was next to techno bar and we could hear music until 4am. For a family not ideal. We should have asked to change rooms.

I loved everything about this hotel. It has a family boutique feel. The breakfast is amazing!! Staff is friendly and accommodating. On mornings when we could not eat, for tours, they made us to go bags.

Best way to see Athens!

I wish it was not so far away. Teens hated the commute. Loved the tour and monasteries. Maybe better for adults.

I loved meeting the shops and owners. Hercules was knowledgeable and shared so much history with us

You have to go into the dungeon. I would have gone mad spending even a day there.

Made the entire trip for us. We loved this experience.

Super easy drop off at departures. Love love love! Wish we could do in the US.

Amazing service!! Welcome drink, took our bags up for us! Very helpful in finding a great restaurant close to the hotel! We reserved a massage and soak in the lovely little spa…and had a perfectly mixed cocktail or two And the best breakfast of our entire tour!!!

Wonderful hotel, located in the Plaka neighborhood very close to the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum.

We enjoyed our stay in Gabalochori, and appreciated their willingness to open to us off season. The only reason I didn't give this five stars was that we could not initially gain entry - we needed to call our travel agent for the entry code.

This was our favorite accommodation in Crete. The view from the terrace was spectacular. The location was great - convenient to restaurants and the town's many interesting sights. The staff - especially the owner - was also extremely helpful.

We really enjoyed this beautiful small hotel. Archanes is a very pretty village close to Knossos, with some excellent restaurants - even off season.

A perfectly fine airport hotel. We loved that it was right across the street from airport checkin.

Fantastic location - perfect for experiencing the Acropolis, Agora, across from Parliament and easy walking to so many sites and lovely restaurants and shopping. The staff were so welcoming and accomodating, the rooms were clean and comfortable and spacious. And breakfast in the morning was a nice perk!

Our lovely guide really made the sites come to life for us - Stephanie was wonderful! This is a must do!

This whole day was amazing! Delphi is gorgeous, Efi was so knowledgeable and wonderful with our kids and their love for mythology, and lunch at Mer Des Oliviers was as delicious as it was beautiful! And to top it off, our driver George was so sweet and helpful and made it a wonderful day!

Everything about this day was magical - the sites, the guide (Theodorus) was the perfect blend of fun and informative and gave us plenty of time to explore on our own as well as with him. And George, again, was fantastic. Even though it must have been an exhausting day for him, he was so enthusiastic about the area and went out of his way to show us the most beautiful views and experiences!

So nice not to have to worry about how to get to and from the airport on a very long day of travel! The drivers in both instances were great!

Temple of Poseidon at sunset on the coast - breathtaking! And dinner to follow was delicious!

Absolutely gorgeous and so conveniently located to all the historical sites.

I wish I could add another star. The room was beautiful and perfectly located. There was nothing like watching the sunset from our room over Apollo’s gate and be within a five minute walk from all the restaurants and shops. The hotel has been in the same family for generations and they are always there to meet your every need. The owner’s wife and grandmother still make every Greek breakfast dish by hand which were all phenomenal. A must stay!

So.. the location of the hotel was very good but there were some issues. You are on the cliff looking over the crater and coast and a short walk down the hill to the Fila city center but the hotel desperately needs a makeover. The rooms were stuck in the 1970s in terms of fixtures and bed accompaniments. The bedspread seemed dirty and thin, the old shower head kept falling, the bathroom door knob almost fell off, and the closet dresser was missing handles. There were other issues as well such as the hot water tank capacity. Our room had a small hot water tank under the bathroom sink that seemed to only be able to hold five minutes of hot water capacity. Our master bed which was really the size of a full sized bed was extremely hard because it had no cushion and padding. Again, great potential but there are nicer hotels in the immediate area that are more updated.

This was by far my daughter’s favorite experience in Athens. A great time. The electric bikes absolutely make a difference on the hills!

Although this as a last minute tour it was very disorganized where the guide kept asking us what we were supposed to be doing… she was very knowledgeable and passionate but needed a better plan.

Our guide was amazing and extremely knowledgeable about Naxos. Although we couldn’t do the olive press because they were not ready, the guide quickly flexed for a visit to the oldest pottery shop on Naxos where we got a first hand demonstration on how they made their products for centuries. Dry, very cool. Although it was characterized as a “food tour”, we only stopped at one restaurant. We did try multiple dishes and the food was amazing but it was more of a site and culture tour with a lunch in the middle than a “food tour”.

This tour was the highlight of our entire Greek vacation. The guide was so knowledgeable, experienced, and passionate and he took the extra time to make sure we truly understood all aspects of the Greek history, culture, and even wine making. He took time out of his off time to help construct a self- tour for us the day after the tour and even offered to come along and help us no charge if he wasn’t busy. Amazing service.

This was shady.. a couple of dudes picked me up in a car on the side of the street and were smoking heavily and arguing with eachother. When I dropped the car off in the giant parking lot where they instructed me to go they refused to come to the location and meet me and merely told me to “leave the keys in the car”…. This made me extremely uncomfortable as this made me financially vulnerable. Needless to say I took a ton of pics….

Harmony Boutique Hotel was a cute hotel located a short walk from the vibrant town. Hotel staff was curtious and accommodating to all our needs . The hotel very clean and updated. Breakfast Buffet was delightful and served in a small dining area with a lovely view of the harbor.
