Greece Travel Agents & Reviews

My husband and I got very lucky and were married right before COVID hit. However, we weren't able to go on our honeymoon. We waited almost two years before we could enjoy some newlyweds time and since we couldn't go anywhere, we decided to splurge and use our savings for Greece. My husband and I don't travel often, which makes it very hard for us to look for where, when, and how, so we decided we should find an expert who can help us have a memorable trip. 

We found Zicasso by searching on google and after reading some great reviews for this company we decided to contact them and really it was hands down the best decision. They set us up with an expert who can create an itinerary for us in our budget and preferences. We were matched with Thodoris. He was basically on top of everything from the beginning. He checked with us where in Greece we would like to go and also suggested a few things too which we appreciated. We trusted him from the beginning as he seemed very genuine and experienced. We finalized our trip and visited Athens, Milos, and of course Santorini. 

My husband and I work a lot, and that's why we did not have the time to book each little thing for this trip. However, doing it through this company made it super easy for us. Our flights, hotels, transportation, tours, and tour guides all were included in our package and that was so much appreciated as it is not always easy to find a ride in Greece. We even got to meet with our travel advisor the day we got there and we were welcomed with a gift bag, coffee, and lunch. 

Thodoris made sure we got the best views as we specifically asked for that for our trip and was always on top of everything. Very communicative even though we are 10 hours behind Greece's time zone. Such a great trip advisor and human being. Would totally recommend Zicasso and will use them for our future travels. And if you get Thodoris, I promise you your trip will become even better. Thank you, Thodoris, our special tour guides, and other members of the Zicasso Team.

Our trip to Greece was outstanding! I have used Zicasso to help identify travel agencies for other international travel in the past and I have always been very pleased. I have traveled fairly extensively, however, Eirini, our travel specialist, was absolutely the best - EVER! She coordinated a vacation that was perfectly tailored to what we wanted, and then personally followed up on the details including recommendations and reservations for dinner. Every driver and guide was excellent and professional and Eirini was available to us, as needed. Even though travel is more complicated now due to the pandemic, Eirini made it easy and even coordinated having our required Covid testing completed at our hotel. Again, outstanding in every way. Thank you for connecting us with our travel specialist. I will definitely highly recommend them and Zicasso, in the future.

We booked a 9 day trip to Greece through our travel company. From the start of the process, their company made it seamless to obtain the itinerary we were looking for, coordinated all of our airport transfers and inter-island transportation, as well as our activities. We had an amazing experience and would recommend this company 100% for anyone looking to travel to Greece.

Athens - we stayed at a lovely hotel downtown with an amazing rooftop restaurant with views of Acropolis. The food, staff, and stay were wonderful. We did a walking tour of Acropolis and its museum, and our tour guide was wonderful and exceptionally knowledgeable. 

Mykonos - we stayed at a beautiful resort! The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. 

I would WARN ANYONE going to Mykonos to avoid the restaurant DK Oyster, and we wish we had read reviews before stumbling on this restaurant while walking on the beach. The owner and staff are crooks and readily engage in fraud and theft of their customers. There is one price on the menu, but then when you go to pay they type in exorbitant prices and intimidate you when you question where these values have come from. They will not give you a copy of your receipt. This establishment has been reported numerous times to the ministry of tourism and has awful reviews on all sites, and honestly should be told about to anyone traveling to the island of Mykonos. What they are doing at this restaurant is not representative of the Greek people and their hospitality.

My (now) wife and I initially considered trying to map out our honeymoon trip across Greece on our own, but ultimately decided to give Zicasso and the travel agency a chance – and this was the best decision we ever made! 

We submitted some initial information on the website, not knowing really much of anything other than that we wanted a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and promptly were set up with two experienced travel agencies from Greece. Within days, both of the agencies contacted us –the system is set up this way so that you can talk to both and choose which one you like the best. We went with a cordial gentleman of this travel agency who was good at speaking English and very open to meeting our specific requests. He’s a very experienced travel expert in Greece and has been coming up with travel plans for decades. Based on the initial information we submitted, he drew up an initial general outline itinerary for us. He then gave us a call, and we spent time making adjustments so that it could fit our wants. Our travel specialist is very flexible – and you never have to feel like you’re locked in. We went back and forth several times, changing our minds every so often, adjusting things here and there (activities, accommodations, you name it) before we came to a finalized itinerary that we were happy about.

It seems like the departments in Zicasso are interconnected, so we were also set up with people who were able to set us up with the appropriate flights at the timeframes of our request. We asked him questions related to tipping culture and the use of cash vs. credit card in Greece, and he answered all of those questions for us. He also informed us about necessary documents needed before traveling to Greece and also had us fill out various forms and submit them beforehand so that we wouldn’t have to be scrambling before our activities in Greece.

The biggest thing, however, is when you land in Greece. That’s when the travel agencies really shine, and that’s when everything becomes worth it. At every landing point there was a driver waiting for us, ready to connect us to the next location, and who was knowledgeable about the area. Representatives met us at every location (we went to various islands, and there appeared to be different local expert travel specialists per island – but overseeing everything was our travel specialist), filling us in on important information such as suggestions on what to do and where to go and at what time – and they told us about the local area, in case we wanted to do things on our own. We are just regular people, but everything was set up so that we felt like royalty. Everything was truly catered to make our trip as seamless as possible. After all of the busy wedding planning, it was so nice to just go and relax and have everything taken care of. It’s still surreal thinking about it. 

When we arrived at our first hotel, we received a folder that had all of the information for our trip and the various tickets we would need for our time in Greece. Our travel specialist checked in on us throughout our time in Greece and was always available to answer any questions. When a yacht activity got canceled due to poor weather, he somehow immediately knew about it and within hours had it rescheduled for a different day that was available in our itinerary (which he already knew). He set us up with the required COVID testing before we returned to our home country, giving us options to go offsite or (because it was available at our location) have the doctor actually come to our hotel (though more costly, we opted to have the doctor meet us at the hotel and it’s worth it to avoid the stress/wait times). I don’t know how he did it, but he also somehow got us upgraded accommodations, better than what we had originally requested, making our stays even more awesome.

We had a wonderful time. It was more than just a honeymoon vacation – it was also a very cool learning experience where we learned so much about the country’s history from the various tour guides.

My husband and  myself had a marvelous trip to Greece. 

We enjoyed all of our tours, and the helpful and knowledgeable people throughout our trip. 

We would go through Zicasso travel again.
