Tour Reviews
You Have Got To See Greece and you HAVE Got to Let Secret Italia take you there
You Have Got To See Greece and you HAVE Got to Let Secret Italia take you there. We always wanted to see Greece, especially after Egypt. Having that depth of archeological history but without the danger was too hard to resist. But I didn’t want to wander through ruins with a guide book in my hands not seeing the reality of what was. We have been to Portugal and Puglia with Secret Italia small group tours and they were brilliant. Finally they had a tour of Greece but the dates didn’t work. We were able to work with Aldo and his team to put together a private tour that was reasonable in price and let me tell you, after a week back, there is still a huge smile on my face all day. For nine days we travelled by luxury car with a charming and caring driver, through most of Greece; from Athens, to Mycenae, Nafplio, Epidaurus, Olympia, back up to Delphi, Arachova and then on to the monasteries in Meteora. At every site, we were greeted by incredible guides, many with multiple degrees, who were all ours. They explained everything, set it in context and answered all our many questions. As with all Secret Italia tours, we also had an amazing cooking school experience with a top flight chef and wine tours. Everywhere we went the credo was to MAKE US HAPPY. Aldo and his team had personally picked all the guides, the experiences, the amazingly diverse and luxurious accommodations and the many meals included in the tour. When we arrived for our second wine tasting, we found a table in the vineyard, set with crystal and white linens, a large charcuterie plate with local products and our wine guide took us through their wonderful offerings. That is above and beyond. Above and Beyond truly describes Secret Italia, Aldo and their many team members. I could reach them any time of day or night if there was any issue at all, none too small. The Greeks have huge hearts and welcome you as family. I know we also have a family at Secret Italia.
