Visite privée du meilleur du Péloponnèse de 5 jours : Nauplie/Olympie/Mycènes/Épidaure/plus

Wow! My husband and I had the most wonderful experience on our recent tour of the Peloponnese with Eudaimonia Private Tours & Experiences. We adjusted the itinerary with their help to add an extra day at the end to see Delphi, and that day also included the monastery of Hosios Loukas at their suggestion, which is home to some of the most lovely church wall paintings and mosaics I've ever seen. About the tour: first, seeing the Peloponnese is a wonderful way to experience the historic landscape of Greece, and see places you've read about in history and mythology. But to see many of the best parts of the Peloponnese, you really don't want to try that as a tourist driving a rental car. The mountain roads are incredibly steep, twisty and often narrow, though very well-maintained. We felt very safe with our driver/tour guide Panos, who was a terrific and careful driver, very knowledgeable about the landscape and sights, and also great company. Here's one example: on the day we were planning to visit one area, Panos was contacted by the hotel where we were to stay who sent a video of the rock slide that had just closed the route we would have taken. Panos had an excellent suggestion for adjusting our itinerary that day, which we happily did (we went to Ancient Messene instead, which was great). If we had been driving ourselves around, as we've often done in other countries, this would have been a much more difficult situation. Second, this tour included areas that I wouldn't have thought to visit, that turned out to be incredible. Examples included Monemvasia (which is comparable to Mont St. Michel in France) and two spectacular cave visits, plus some mountaintop villages I wouldn't have dared to attempt on our own. Third, the hotels that were included in the tour were wonderful. They were all very different, all highly rated, all very comfortable, and all different. They ranged from a modern hotel clinging to a mountainside with an incredible view, to a traditional guest house in a renovated mansion, to a gorgeous spa hotel in Mystras. Fourth, the included lunches were amazing! Panos handled all the ordering and made sure we were able to try many traditional Greek dishes, all cooked to a high standard of quality. We really enjoyed these lunch restaurants and on most days, we didn't even bother going out for dinner because we were full, lol. Because of Greece's system of licensing tour guides for specific sites, Panos would get us to the site and help us get our tickets (not included, but on many days in March, the entry was free), but let us explore the site on our own. We had Rick Steve's guidebook for Greece, which has excellent coverage of the major sites of the Peloponnese, and that was plenty of information to go through the various sites. This was our first time going on a private multi-day tour with a driver/guide, and we loved it. I had been to Greece before, many years ago as a student in a summer program that included multi-day excursions to historic sites, and Eudaimonia Tours & Experiences took us to areas I had never seen or even knew about (such as the cave sites). It was a magical experience, and I highly recommend this tour.

My wife and I did a 6 day tour of the Peloponnese which included a day on Hydra Island and we highly recommend Eudaimonia Private Tours. The tour itinerary is well thought out and provides visitors with an in-depth travel experience covering the regions history, archeology, culture, food and diverse geography. Being a relatively small tour company allows for a highly personal tour experience. Nicos was excellent to work with throughout the initial contact, planning and monitoring of our trip. For example he recommended spending a few days in Nafplio, rather than Athens, to recover from the long flight from western Canada. Nafplio is a wonderful place to visit. Nico also provided a private airport pickup which timing had to be changed at the last minute because of a missed flight connection in Paris and was regularly checking in with our driver and tour guide, Theo. Theo met us at the Athens airport with a warm smile and a clean comfortable car. Theo is an outstanding guide and driver. His dedication to service is second to none, which when combined with his archeological and historical knowledge of Greece, provides a wonderful tour experience. A few examples of Theo’s dedication to service. Before our arrival in Athens Theo contacted the hotel we had separately reserved in Nafplio for the days prior to our tour. The hotel did not have our reservation. Theo had the glitch resolved for us before our late arrival at the hotel. Theo went out of his way to make each day of our tour enjoyable, comfortable and specially matched to our personal interests and preferences. A daily highlight of our tour was having lunch at a small local restaurant. Theo would do all the ordering for us knowing our food likes and dislikes and ensured that over the tour we experienced a broad selection of the Greek cuisine. Theo also was excellent in communicating with the restaurant chefs to accommodate my wife’s multiple food allergies which eliminated the stress of eating out in a foreign country. In total we spent 17 days in Greece also seeing Athens and cruising the Greek Islands. For us the highlight of the trip was the Eudaimonia Peloponnese tour, and the stars were Nicos and Theo. Thank you both for a great trip. Ken and Gloria, Calgary, Canada

Just returned from visiting Greece, starting with a 5 Day Private Tour of the Peloponnese with Eudaimonia Private Tours. I am being completely honest when I say it was one of the most enjoyable vacations I have ever had, in large part because of our experience with our guide, Panayiotis. He has a gift when it comes to reading his audience and it was from the very start at our airport pick-up first thing in the morning, that his professionalism and good-natured personality began to shine. As we were a party of 2, one can imagine we were probably all wondering how the next 5 days might unfold, but in this instance any concerns were quickly dismissed. By the end of the tour, we had shared so many stories and laughs that saying goodbye was like leaving a good friend. We took in many sites and sights during those 5 days from the ocean to the mountains; stayed in beautiful accommodations, met many wonderful people, and enjoyed terrific meals. If you are planning a trip to Greece, you would be missing out if you did not consider Eudaimonia Private Tours for a unique, and authentic travel adventure.
