A very enjoyable excursion to Delos and Rhenia. The sea does get choppy on the crossing - but that’s to be expected crossing a channel of open sea. Highlight of the trip if you ask me. The tour was informative and we had plenty of time to wander around the museum. The swim at Rheina was lovely and the food delicious.

The trip was great, all the staff were very nice and friendly, concerned about our well-being, it was very worthwhile.

It was a great tour - the only thing i would have liked is more time to explore on our own. Hit the highest peak.

Would’ve enjoyed more time on Delos. Otherwise it was fantastic day of Greek history..

Audiotour added a lot to walking around the ruins. It was informative and well done.
