A vacation to Greece was expertly prepared by the Pickyourtrail team! Very pleased with the timely visa assistance and on-trip service. These men are in their youth and are excellent planners. While travelling, you must have their app so you may mail them if you have any needs. When we had a few navigational questions, the support staff also assisted us. In Greece, we had a terrific time.Ramesh K, Trip to Greece

Greece Family ancient-history-trail Trip: 12 Nights & 13 Days

Greece, a land where ancient history breathes through every stone and whispers tales of gods and heroes, awaits you with its rich tapestry of stories.

  • Elafonissi Beach in Crete: Explore the famous pink sand beach, known for its shallow waters and stunning beauty.

Travel Tips for Greece

  • Dress comfortably: When visiting historic sites, it's best to wear shoes suitable for walking on uneven terrain.
  • Visit early or late: To beat both crowds and the midday heat, plan your visits to major attractions during early morning or late afternoon.
  • Embrace local cuisine: Don’t miss out on authentic Greek food—try moussaka and fresh seafood at local tavernas.
  • Use public transport: Explore cities efficiently using buses or metro systems. It’s cost-effective and offers a local experience.

Our Greece trip with pickyourtrail was amazing. Service during the trip was commendable. Although there was a timing mismatch from vendors end, pickyourtrail ensured that our plans went thru. Their team connected with us to see that everything was smooth. They compensated us for the last minute charges. For a short while when there was some problem with my app, the team established alternative connectivity thru my whatsapp. Overall, I felt it was very trustworthy and felt at ease to travel with them in future.

Pick Your Trail turned out to be good choice to plan our vacation (for 4 friends from 4 different locations) to Greece right from drafting the itinerary to visa guidance, ticketing and on ground support in Greece. But for their app which created initial hurdles, their executives were friendly, approachable guided us well at all stages. I would certainly suggest PYT to my friends and relatives.Thank you PYT for making our vacation special.
