We enjoyed a wonderful tour with our guide Marianna Tsigaridou who was great at giving us good information at each site we visited. Some of these were: Mount Olympus, Epidaurus and Mycenae,Delpi and Meteora Monasteries. The country is lovely and we enjoyed learning more about the history. We stayed each night in a comfortable hotel and lovely locations. Our group did change in numbers depending on the sites each individual had chosen and the days that amounted too. I would say Marianna kept the tour running smoothly along with the skilled drivers who traversed the countryside.
