Real Greece Travel - Chicago, Illinois

A truly amazing trip, thanks to Real Greece. Everyone was so friendly and helpful along the way. I don't know how we would have pulled off such an amazing trip without them. They added several tours and experiences that we would have missed had we done this on our own.
We hope to return to Greece again, and I am sure if and when we do, we will rely on Real Greece to provide us with another exceptional travel experience.

If you're dreaming of an unforgettable vacation, look no further than Real Greece Travel to plan your trip. They truly deliver everything you hope for in a Greek getaway and more.

From the initial planning stages to our arrival in Greece, Carole and Danai made the entire process seamless. They maintained constant communication, ensuring everything was on track and met our expectations. I really appreciated their attention to detail and the personalized touches they incorporated into our itinerary. The excursions they arranged featured some of the most fantastic tour guides! The hotels chosen were gorgeous
and in the most perfect locations for us to get the most out of each location.

Our Greece vacation was amazing, and I will definitely be using Real Greece Travel again in the future.

Thank you to everyone at Real Greece for making our family trip so memorable!

Real Greece made our Greek vacation seamless, enjoyable and vibrant. It was my first time using travel consultants and it was more useful than I could have imagined.

The team was available 24/7 to smooth challenges, make recommendations, arrange tours, lodging and much more. It was like having a local friend guide us to the best experiences.

I am deeply grateful that I found Real Greece.

The team at Real Greece Travel is truly world class. If you’re planning a trip to Greece I can’t recommend a better team. My wife and I worked with them to plan and coordinate our honeymoon, and everything was above and beyond what we expected. They took the time to really get to know who we were as a couple and as individuals, to craft a unique Greece experience. Their dinner recommendations were always better than anything us tourists could find on our own. If we had a question during the trip we could message them and they were more than happy to answer. The places we got to visit, the rooms we stayed in, and the excursions they planned for us were fantastic. They truly crafted a unique, once in a lifetime experience, that I know my wife will be reminiscing on for many years to come. We even got the chance to see some of our friends who were also on their honeymoon in Greece, all thanks to this team. When we get the opportunity to return to Greece in the future, I know we will be calling the team at Real Greece Travel to help plan it.

We had a group of 21 people and this apartment was the perfect fit! Communication leading up to the trip and during the trip was timely and easily understood. The owners' assistant met us at check-in to walk us through the ins and outs of the space, which was really helpful! The location was spot on (the view is INCREDIBLE!) for our needs and area dining options are fantastic. I recommend checking out the restaurant right up the street with the red and white awning for some tasty local fare. We walked to the city square one night and never once did we feel unsafe. Great neighborhood! We had an issue with the hot water heater the first night, but the owner was VERY quick to get it fixed for us. I have stayed in other places where the owners were not very willing to help with issues or local recommendations, but that is definitely not the case here! We were able to order a birthday cake for a member of our group and it was in the fridge and waiting for us when we arrived...with candles and a lighter too! I can't say enough good things about this space. We will definitely be back!

When our trip to Israel and Egypt was cancelled, we needed to book a trip for 18 days with three weeks left until departure. We turned to Carole and Real Greece travel, who prepared the most amazing and awesome trip to Greece that far exceeded our expectations. Not knowing that much about mainland Greece, with Carole's thoughtful suggestions, we chose the Peloponnese and Crete.
Once we arrived, we were greated by Nico, who was our driver, but who also became our new best friend in Greece. Not only did he drive us to our different destinations, he was fun, knowledgeable about Greek history, and had great suggestions for everything that we needed, including the best tavernas in the area. We spent a lot of time with Nico as he drove us around the Peloponnese, and we will sincerely miss him.
Our guides were incredible. We learned so much about Ancient Greek history, mythology, gastronomy, and on, and on. Thanks to Real Greece, the guides are chosen carefully to provide the best experience. Everyday, we appreciated that Danai would check in to see that our day went perfectly.
When we had a minor glitch in Heraklion, Real Greece was readily available and helpful to make a quick change of plan at literally the last moment. We had another amazing day!
We had not considered going to Greece until the unfortunate events in the Middle East. After this trip, however, I can not wait to go back to Greece next year and explore more of this truly fascinating and wonderful country, with it's incredible history, lovely people, fantastic cuisine, and beautiful landscapes. I would only use Real Greece to plan our next trip!

Most amazing trip from beginning to end! We planned an ancestry trip and Carole did a wonderful job listening to our vision & cultivating the perfect trip. Our driver, and tour guide Niko was amazing & took all the stress out of travel so we could just enjoy ourselves! 🇬🇷

We worked with Carole and Danai for our honeymoon. They were both amazing and responsive our whole trip. They really cared about making sure we had an amazing experience. I couldn’t have asked for a better honeymoon. I will for sure be planning my next trip to Greece with this team!
