This was our first trip to Europe and we sought out a travel organizer to help us stay organized and lean on a local expert for recommendations on what to see and do. This was an excellent service experience which we would definitely do again and recommend to friends!

Hotel Reviews
Hotel Villa di Sorrento
Sorrento

This hotel was so iconic Italy. Impeccably clean, service was absolutely perfect and the location is optimal to enjoy the sights of Sorrento. Delicious breakfast and coffee as well. Nikola at The front desk was super helpful when we had questions about restaurants, directions, and whatever we needed for the room.

Authenticity & Character
Iconic Italy. Architecture, decor, charming
Location
Central, convenient, beautiful view from our balcony
Staff
Nikola!
Cleanliness & Comfort
The rooms were small which we now know is typical in Europe. That didn’t matter to us because we were not there most of the time. The rooms were super clean and although the king bed was actually two twin beds pushed together it didn’t really bother us… maybe because we were so tired from travel adventures!
Acropolis Hill Hotel
Athens

Very clean, good location, amazing view of the Parthenon, awesome rooftop patio.

Authenticity & Character
It was a business vibe as opposed to authentic Greek which was fine for our one night stay
Location
Convenient if you want to visit the Parthenon.
Staff
Very attentive and eager to please guests. “Anthony” at the front desk went so far as to order our take away dinner because we didn’t have the app we needed. That kind of service is hard to find in the states!
Cleanliness & Comfort
Everything well tended to.
Kasimatis by La Perla
Santorini

I can’t say enough about the amazing experience at this hotel. Everything from the view to the staff, the food, the Jacuzzi, the location, sunsets and all of the wonderful memories - everything was absolutely unforgettable.

Authenticity & Character
So very Santorini- on the caldera- it felt slightly like the cave style but also modern, clean and uniquely special
Location
This is the optimal location for visiting in the month of May to see a perfect sunset. Even in other months of the season I’m sure it is absolutely spectacular. It’s very convenient to walk and find restaurants and the bus station and shops in Imerovigoli.
Staff
All of the staff at this hotel were so eager to make our experience perfect. They are very proud of what they do on the island of Santorini and we were grateful to experience that. When we checked in and out, there was staff readily available to carry our luggage up the 125 steps to and from the street!
Cleanliness & Comfort
The staff is so attentive to cleanliness. Someone came around every morning to check the Jacuzzi to make sure it was clean and we had everything we needed.

We had a pretty rainy day for this tour, but our host on the boat made the experience absolutely amazing regardless of the weather. He was very talented, negotiating the waves while bringing us into all of the most amazing grottoes around the island of Capri

What a cool experience, this was!

Quality of Experience
We had perfect weather. The crew was impeccable, and very good hosts. The music was great, and all of the stops we made were perfectly timed and educational.
Food
The mail on this boat was actually one of the best meals we had on our entire vacation. It is so impressive what they can do on a catamaran!
Guides, Drivers and Staff
Everything that we did in Santorini reminded us that tourism is a very important industry that helps this island Thrive. They go out of their way to make sure that your personal experience is absolutely perfect.

Greece

This is a must do in my opinion for anyone going to visit Santorini. It really does cover the whole entire island on a high level and then travelers can decide where they’d like to spend additional time. Our guide was absolutely amazing. He knew this island extremely well, and was able to give us lots of awesome information about the history, the highlights the best places to see the sunset, and even brought us to a secret place that the travelers and most tourist didn’t know about. It was a really great experience for us.

Quality of Experience
Amazing overall quality of experience. If there was anything at all that we would change, we found ourselves definitely anxious to wrap up the day after 5 1/2 hours. If the company had offered a bottle of wine to watch the sunset with that would have enhanced the experience but all we had was a bottle of water, and we started feeling very hungry and ready to get back.
Guides, Drivers and Staff
Excellent driver and tour guide for this experience!
Transport
Very safe and efficient driver in a very comfortable van
