5 Star Greece Tour Reviews — 1 to 30 of 76

The wonderful Greek people and the excellent guidance made our trip special. We've been on many guided cycling trips but none as accommodating as this. Our guide Demitris and his assistant Marias were very knowledgable and always cheerful.

So many memorable parts of the trip. Nomad's Path, the local guide partner, did such a great job creating the trip. We enjoy each day. Beautiful countryside, off the beaten path stops, great food and hotels. Guides were wonderful and knowledgeable. Ebikes were a joy.

Our ship, Running on Waves could not have been better. The ship was immaculately clean. Our cabin’s, although small, were very comfortable. I would have to say the staff met our every need. The food was amazing, every meal was a variety and extremely well prepared. Due to the closing of the Corinth Canal, our tour had to be modified. I felt that the captain did the best he could to see that we had a great trip. Lena, the cruise Director was sometimes over the top, making sure all of our needs were met. Alex, our bike guide also did a great job.
I would highly recommend this bike tour.

I can’t stop thinking about this trip — it was just incredible! The crew was amazing, always ready to help and make everything easy and fun. The boat felt cozy, cabins super comfy, and everything was spotless.

We biked every day — anywhere from 20 to 60 km — and the scenery blew me away. Endless olive groves, sparkling blue sea, quiet roads, and secret beaches you couldn’t reach without a bike. Morning yoga on deck was such a nice way to wake up and stretch before hitting the pedals.

And the food… wow! Every meal was different, with plenty of choices between fish and meat, plus fresh fruits, berries, and local treats. I’ll never forget the lamb and langoustines. October was perfect — great weather, beautiful nature, and peaceful towns with almost no tourists. I’d go back in a heartbeat and try more routes! This tour is perfect if you love cycling, exploring, and just enjoying life by the sea.

August, Emma and the crew at the admiral were so professional, I requested vegan meals and they delivered excellent vegan meals!!! Plus their attention to details when it comes to bikes, thank you once again for all you did in our Sept 2025 trip

Took this boat from Bodrum with August and Emma as our guides. There were 15 couples and we all had a fabulous time! The rides were ambitious but fun because we had electric bikes (for those who wanted them) and we had a lot of nice stops. August was charming, funny, and informative. Emma was delightful! The answer was always yes for anything we needed. The food was better than ok and plenty of it. I would use this company again in a different area. Very, very fun!

Great times, great service. Quality boat with excellent meals. Esther provided an engaging experience along with her assistance who we nicknamed 'Woody' as he tried very, very hard to fix a pedal with a piece of wood. He was amazing

We loved. It was our first experience riding. The cabin very confortable. The food delicious prepared by a chef. Our guide was really fantastic. We loved everything.

Great crew. Great food. Excellent plan b options when the wind picked up and they had to diverge from schedule. Biking was challenging at times even with e-bikes. But the views were spectacular.

We loved this bike and boat tour in the Ionian islands! It was so fun being on the boat and meeting people from other countries and traveling to all the beautiful islands. The biking was challenging because of the hills, but an E bike made it enjoyable. The tour guides were wonderful and the boat crew were also - we had excellent meals every day on the boat. We also loved the swim stops-the entire week felt magical.

The overall experience was fantastic, the leaders were a load of fun and very organised . The ship crew , captain, deck hands and cooks were very obliging. Our itinerary was changed slightly due to circumstances outside anyone’s control, the changed stops were equally as good as the planned ports.
The food was exceptionally good and plentiful.
The crew went out of their way to make the trip enjoyable and loads of fun!

The islands were so beautiful! Of course, the bike rides, swim stops, guides and crew made the trip wonderful!

Everything about this trip was wonderful. Do not expect luxury accommodations, but do expect a great crew, fabulous guides, fantastic scenery, and great bike rides.

We loved the experience of both being on this magnificent boat and riding along the coastlines on these fabulous islands. This is the way to really see Greece. The food was outstanding and Mary Lou and Esther (the tour guides) were priceless in keeping us informed of excursions and a ton of fun as well. A bucket list trip for sure.

Sailing and cycling the Greek islands was really incredible - I didn’t want to leave! I was really impressed with Running On Waves. The crew was amazing and I loved that the meals were served buffet style. The food was great and always a variety of selection. Definitely take some extra time in Athens if you can, it is a great city to explore.

Great boat, itinerary and crew.

Would prefer biking mornings and motoring afternoons. Most of trip motored til noon. Ate at 1:30. Began biking after big lunch about 3.
That is my only complaint. The las 2 days were morning bikes, much preferred

My husband and I had a marvellous time on this tour. It didn't turn out to be a boat bike trip; instead it was a hotel bike trip as the Thalassa wasn't available, but it didn't have a negative effect on our trip. The itinerary changed substantially as we used ferries instead of the Thalassa, and stayed on some different islands, but the quality of the tour was high and we had a really memorable and enjoyable time. The guides were excellent and really looked after us. Nothing was too much trouble and we were wined and dined royally. The bikes were high quality and performed flawlessly, and the scenery was gorgeous. I would not hesitate to recommend this tour, but will say you should not join unless you have a reasonable level of fitness. The hills on the islands we visited (particularly Andros) are challenging even on an e-bike but well worth the effort.

Seeing Greece by bike - gives you a close-up. Well organised trip means a relaxing time.

This trip met all of my personal goals and expectations. The biking was challenging and the tour guides were excellent. The meals were great and well prepared. The ship crew members anticipated our needs. There is no better way to truly experience the beautiful Ionian Islands than by bike and boat. Otherwise you would only see the port villages unless you hired a car or van to take you to the scenic views. My only suggestion would be to include more historical stops.

We had the most phenomenal week on the Erato! Biking through gorgeous villages and pine forests and olive groves, and being repeatedly blown away by views of the sea as you rounded another bend! It was extraordinary! On board the ship we had amazing and delicious healthy meals. Our guide Dionysius was outstanding. It was an unforgettable week!

For me it was the time in Athens BEFORE the trip, to be honest.

The entire experience was flawless from pick up, transport to Meteora to the actual tour. The accommodations were beautiful and the staff was super friendly and helpful. The views on the bike ride cannot be described with words or pictures. Meteora is a MUST see!

Meteora was incredible! Tripsite made the execution of the trip flawless. We would highly recommend using them! The team was available for any and all questions from the initial inquiry all the way thru the end of the trip!

We had the absolute best time on This trip. It was the highlight to our three weeks in Greece and we’re already looking to make plans for another trip Trip site took care of everything, including all transfers, making everything incredibly easy and they were available for questions as we moved around during our vacation We highly recommend them

Thalassa is a beautiful comfortable ship,. Even made better by the friendly and helpful crew. Our guides, Mary Lou (aka Lulu) and Demetris were not only competent and friendly, they were fun to ride with! Two weeks later and we are all in touch by way of Whatsapp! They were very a accommodating found time for swim stops once or twice a day and were vigilant. We even sailed for a magical hour. E bikes were perfection as were the meals. Everyone, especially me, gained weight. Of my many trips with Tripsite, this was the best.
As an aside, Santorini is , in my opinion, overated...too crowded, busy and trash every where Try Crete instead. Also switching Whatsapp to Signal for security.

The crew of the Erato is very professional and friendly. The boat is well-maintained and spacious enough for 12 passengers. The food prepared onboard was outstanding, rivaling many of the restaurants we ate at in Greece. Our tour guide, Dionysus, led our biking group safely around the islands and entertained us with tales of Greek myths, gods/goddesses, and heroes. There is plenty of downtime to go swimming (off boat and beaches), read a book, sunbathe on deck, or take a nap. Overall, we enjoyed this tour (our 4th with Tripsite) and would recommend, especially to first-timers in Greece.

Turquoise waters, views galore, fabulous fresh and authentic greek food, scenic bike rides and good company with fabulous guides.
Do not expect luxury accomodation (it's more like camping) and everything else makes up for that!

I loved the trip!
beautiful places, good planning, great guide and wonderful group atmosphere. We get to know Greece in a unique and intimate way!
The Tripsite agency was impeccable with information and quick responses!

Cycling through the “undulations” of the Cyclades was magic, particularly the downhills. Fortunately we had e-bikes to reduce the climbs. Our guide, Dionysis, was excellent. His depth of knowledge of Ancient Greek history was immense and his stories were always infused with his wonderful humour. Beautiful ports, great restaurants and food on board, what more do you need?

This was a fantastic trip. My whole group was really impressed. The bike guides (Dionysis and Demetrius) were fantastic. They really did a good job supporting us during the rides and on board the ship. The crew worked really hard and their worked showed. The food was exceptional. I highly recommend this trip.
