We have this cruise booked for June 2020. As we are from Australia, our borders are closed. I have emailed three times to cancel over the past month and have not received any response. We were so keen to go on this cruise however this experience with the customer service has definitely soured the experience. We plan on going to Greece next year however I do not think we will be taking this cruise.

We were very satisfied with the whole process. Our driver was very nice and accommodating. He provided us with information on the drive to Delphi and also let us get off at two places to visit them. In Delphi he reserved a table for us in a restaurant, where we went to eat after our tour. The restaurant was very good. Our tour guide confidently guided us through the museum and the excavation site in German. We were all excited.

My son, daughter-in-law and I had booked a 14-day private tour of Athens, Crete, Santorini, Milos and Naxos with Private Tours Greece from May 1-14, 2020 and made a 30% down payment by credit card on 02/06/2020. All interactions with Private Tours Greece went smoothly and were professional and friendly. Then, due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and my son's illness, on 03/13/2020, well ahead of the deadline for a fully-refundable cancellation, I asked Private Tours Greece to release all reservations it had made on our behalf, but to hold my deposit, in the hope that we might be able to reschedule our trip later in 2020 or in the spring of 2021. Private Tours Greece complied with my request and issued a credit voucher for the down payment I had made. As the pandemic continued to surge and Greece remained closed to visitors from the United States, on 4/17/2021, after essentially extending an interest-free loan to Private Tours Greece for over a year, I requested that my down payment be fully refunded and credited to the same credit card account to which it had been charged. Thereupon, Private Tours Greece staff claimed that the request for refund had been "forwarded" ... as it turned out later, to Alpha Bank. Nothing happened for a week. I then engaged in repeated e-mail exchanges with Private Tours Greece staff, only to be subjected to a stream of equivocations, obfuscations of the facts, and invalid excuses, including a claim that Private Tours Greece was doing me a favor by agreeing to a refund because the Greek government had allegedly given it the option to hold my funds indefinitely. I then contacted the general manager of the company, who sent me what purported to be a Greek language request to Alpha Bank (that I was unable to read) to issue the refund, along with further invalid excuses, never responding to my complaint that Private Tours Greece was in breach of its contractual obligation to issue a full refund of my down payment, not to mention doing the honorable thing, i.e., issue an immediate refund from an account he controlled directly, rather than blaming Alpha Bank for the delay by claiming that it "required" 10-15 "working" days to complete the request. Even that outlandishly ridiculous period has now expired! A complaint I submitted to Alpha Bank has received no response to date. It has now been nearly a full month since my refund request of 4/17/2021, and I may have to initiate legal action against Private Tours Greece ... with all the complexities and additional outlays and delays that would involve ... in order to reclaim my funds. The lesson to be learned here is that Private Tours Greece cannot be counted upon to honor its promises and contractual commitments. If there is any chance at all that you may have to cancel your trip, STAY AWAY!

What a fantastic experience for me and my friends! We booked this excursion in the afternoon cause we had planned a late night out in the city the previous day and it turned out to be the highlight of our trip. Our driver picked us up from our hotel with a luxurious van and by the end of the day he had become our friend. Not only that but on the way he explained to us in detail the history behind everything we were seeing. We started with a visit to the lake which was marvelous. After that we headed for Cape Sounion and the temple of Poseidon, where we watched the sunset. Definitely a unique experience. An image that will stay with me forever. I highly recommend One Day Tours. They were very friendly and informative, from the moment we made our reservation up to the point they dropped us off at our hotel. We are definitely coming back to Greece and certainly booking another excursion with One Day Tours!
