Weather permitting, you will have an hour to enjoy the crystal-clear waters and swim to the beach to see the renowned half-buried shipwreck or just stay on deck and soak in the sun and the incredible views. Your next destination is the majestic Blue Caves, set in the cliffs below Cape Skinari, the striking rock formations where the water reflects more shades of blue than an artist’ palette. The boat will make a brief stop nearby so that you can capture the colors on camera.

Oh, my goodness, Panos, thank you so much for the incredible trip plans you made for my husband and daughter... they had an amazing time. They said every detail of the trip was perfect, even down to a notification when one of the ferry was going to be late! You did a fantastic job with all the choices so needless to say if and when we come back to Greece, we will definitely use your services again, and I have told other people about your company too! It was a fabulous experience working with you!

Thank you again so so much. Yassoo!

Dear Nico,

I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, but I was swamped the day we returned and I'm just catching up before I leave on a business trip Monday. Just let me say Pam and I enjoyed our trip to Greece immensely.

The scenery, food, accommodations and, most of all, the Greek people make this one of our favorite trips ever. Everything you arranged was provided smoothly and seamlessly with no problems over 14 days.

We really enjoyed Athens and our guide, Vicky was especially knowledgeable and gave us wonderful insights of Greek history and prepared us for the Acropolis and the terrific museum. Highly recommended! We actually found Athens to be a wonderful city and enjoyed walking around and taking in the culture and everyday life. Our hotel was situated very well and the rooftop views amazing.

Santorini was as spectacular and breathtaking as we expected. Pictures simply do not do it justice. The Alta Mare was a great choice and we loved our little cave room with the outside jacuzzi and spent many hours just relaxing and sipping wine admiring our view.

George never overlooked any detail and made us feel at home and welcomed at all times. He arranged a sunset cruise which was one of the highlights of our trip.

The ship and crew were terrific, the beaches and waters excellent and the barbecue was first class. We made some very fast friends with a United Nations of people from China to Peru to Australia and New Zealand. We also enjoyed the beautiful restaurant at the Andronis and used the spa several times. The only downside for us was the amount of stairs to get to and from our room. When we go back, maybe we can find a room a little closer to the top, but I minor complaint when judging our overall satisfaction.

The high speed boat to Mykonos was fine and the Petasos was fantastic. We had a great room close to everything and enjoyed the pool area, spa and the many restaurants at the beach a short walk away. We had a great evening at one of the restaurants with Greek dancing that was a lot of fun. Even the Sofitel at the airport was very nice and they took great care of us. Talk about convenient to the airport!

All in all, a very enjoyable experience and very professionally handled by you and your team at Travelive.

Thanks again for the great trip.

Best Regards,

Richard

John,

Just wanted to thank you for the good planning and advice for our trip to Greece. Our accommodations were good. We especially liked Mykonos Palace. The staff there was awesome, especially the manager. She went beyond the call to help us in every way. Our guide in Athens to the Acropolis, whose first name was Anna, could not have been more knowledgeable or helpful. She was very kind and assisted us in every way needed. The suggestion from you to get a private tour was so right. We moved right through the crowds with our able guide and watched the large groups dealing with all sorts of confusion.Our hotel in Santorini was so convenient to everything. We walked to restaurants and shopping and enjoyed the pool. All of the transfers went like clockwork and the drivers were very courteous.

If we can ever use your services again, it would be with the utmost confidence.

Thanks again.

Hi Marina,

Thank you so much for reaching out. I have been meaning to write to you. Our trip was absolutely incredible! It was truly a trip of a lifetime. Everything was so perfect and we felt a sense of relief knowing that you and your colleagues at Travelive took care of every little detail for us. Both hotels were amazing!

At the Mykonos Grand we met other honeymooners or anniversary goers from around the world. The staff was kind and courteous and catered to our every need. From buffing our sunglasses, to the cold towels by the pool and fresh sorbet they really made you feel like a star. They even greeted us every morning asking us how we slept and made sure to make a point of saying that we should come back once our baby is born in October. I LOVED the hotel and to be honest, we only went into the town of Mykonos for a little while since we had everything we wanted right there at the hotel. The bus service that takes hotel customers from the hotel to the town was wonderful and we greatly appreciate this service. I do wish though that it ran in the afternoon in addition to the evening. Since I am pregnant, we were not going out partying it down at night so the bus schedule was sometimes not in line with our schedule and activities we wanted to partake in.

The Andronis was also incredible. We were awestruck by the bell boys ability to carry ALL of our luggage in one swoop down the cliff to our room. Our room was incredible and we really enjoyed the in-suite sauna. The breakfast was to die for and we thought we had literally died and gone to heaven. Once again the hotel staff went above and beyond and they even offered us a free dessert, app and a virgin drink for me on our last night. Absolutely incredible! I cannot say enough good things about these resorts and their staff. I could go on and on and would be happy to provide you with a formal review of each if you would like.

The Catamaran tour was an adventure of a lifetime. There was a total of 8 of us on the boat which was a very nice group. My husband had a BLAST. Unfortunately, I got seasick and spent the majority of the time underneath in the cabin trying not to throw up but I can’t say enough how kind the crew was. The captain and his crew brought me hot lemon water, gave me blankets, and even made me a special dinner that would be more agreeable to a upset tummy. They went above and beyond making me feel comfortable and not embarrassed and kept assuring me that me feeling icky was actually a good sign for the baby (which it is J). On the way back home from the catamaran tour I once again was not feeling well and needed to ask the transport driver to pull over. After getting violently sick- the driver and all of the passengers were so nice to me and really made an embarrassing situation feel that much better.

I cannot say enough how kind and courteous the Greek people are. I have never met more kind folk in my life. Our trip was so amazing and I would suggest Greece and Travelive to anyone who asks. We are indeed hoping to go back again one day and will be reaching out to you again to help with our travel coordination.

Thank you so much for all that you have done and for making our babymoon/honeymoon so unforgettable. I have attached a few pictures here for you to see (it was hard to choose as we have hundreds!)

Best,

Brianna

Hi Marina,

We are home and settling in. I wanted to contact you and say thank you for helping us plan a special anniversary trip. We enjoyed Greece so much, especially the people, culture, sights and of course the food! For our anniversary, we had dinner overlooking the sea at sunset.

All transfers and tours were professionally organized and efficient. Our tour guide in Athens, Marilena, was wonderful, the wine tour and catamaran trip in Santorini were highlights of our trip.Our favorite island was Santorini, the village of Oia and the best hotel was the Mykonos Grand. We were so impressed with the facilities, service, and the welcoming nature of the staff.

At the Andronis, Nadia really helped smooth over the initial confusion with the room. They were very accommodating and did compensate for the disruption of having to wait 4 hours for a room and then to move the next day again. Thank you for assisting there, the initial impression was not the best especially at a 5 star boutique hotel. I do think that if we had not vocalized our frustration, we would not have been offered what we did receive. No matter, the trip was great. The next time I would go back to Santorini and maybe Crete or Rhodes.

I am attaching a couple of photos. We will be in touch for our next trip and will definitely recommend Travelive

Regards,

Liliane & Rudy

Sharon & Carmelita in Santorini - Travel Reviews

Sharon & Carmelita, Canada

We're baaaackk!! Hey Tia! Back to reality :( We've been back for a few days now but I have just finally been able to upload our pics (which I will send to you by separate email).

First of all, both Carmelita and I would like to truly thank you and your team for arranging such a wonderful, stress-free, enjoyable and most memorable holiday... from the moment I clicked onto your website and filled in the info of our travel needs right down to our plane landing back home...everything worked out wonderfully! This trip was seriously one we both will never forget!

All three hotels were impeccable! Everyone was so friendly and accommodating to our needs throughout our stay. The locations were spot on! The views from our rooms were stunning! All travel arrangements between airports, hotels and ferry boats were great; Especially, our driver in Athens who seemingly turned out to be our "personal driver" to and from Athens airport and Amalia Hotel during both trips to Athens. I'm not sure whether that was set up or just a coincidence but we were both very glad to see a familiar face because he was truly very kind and helpful in giving us wonderful travel advice.

We had a great and informative tour guide, Marianne, in Athens who took us on that walking city tour which was awesome! Going into the spectacular museum and seeing and learning the history of Athens, walking through the Acropolis, taking the metro and strolling through the markets and shops... AMAZING!

Then onto the unbelievable resort and spa in Mykonos! The entire resort was unreal! Being completely white in structures and furniture, it felt clean, calm and quite posh! The entire staff was so very friendly! Carmelita and I spent a day just relaxing by the pool and then headed to the spa for a wonderful massage! The food was very good at their restaurants but what blew us away was the view from our table while having our meals... breathtaking! We also spent another day on a great city & island tour and we were even brave enough to take the local bus ourselves in and out of the city/to and from our resort!

And when we thought that it couldn't get any better, we landed on the island of Santorini!!! WOW!!! The view from Rocabella Hotel was absolutely STUNNING!!! Because the Bollywood film production was staying there but leaving the day after our arrival, the room they initially put us in was a bit under our expectations. The receptionist told us afterward that she noticed it on our faces and so offered to move us the next day when the Bollywood peeps left. And sure enough, when we returned from our trip to the city the following day, it was to our pleasant surprise that the room they moved us into was unbelievable! The sea view was unreal! Again, the restaurant view of the sunset was so truly breathtaking!! This resort is exactly how I pictured Greece would be... white cube homes and clear blue water! It really was just like paradise!

So needless to say, it was a very sad day when we had to leave :( The Greek islands are like no place we have ever been or seen before in our lives! This trip was definitely one of our dreams come true and certainly one of the most memorable birthdays I have ever had in all of my...uhm...40...uhm...years! And Travelive, especially with your help, was such a huge part of it!

So again, we both cannot thank YOU enough for helping us experience an amazing dream come true!!! :)

I am quite certain that we will be in touch again for another big trip next year!!!

'Till then Tia...take care,

Sharon & Carmelita

Hi John,

My husband and I just wanted to thank you (and your whole team) for a truly wonderful experience of our trip to Greece.

Everything went off without a hitch and was just perfect- all of our transfers were timely, personable and so nice to have coordinated; our tour guide in Athens was simply wonderful- we learned so much we never would have without having a dedicated person and it was great to have the individual attention vs. the large group tours; the hotels in Athens (where we were upgraded to a wrap around balcony!), Mykonos (had a HUGE deck) and Santorini (another great patio and truly amazing views) were all outstanding in terms of service and atmosphere.

The cruise ship was a very efficient way to get around and see many islands in a short time and embarking and disembarking in our preferred locations was simple and effective.

We really appreciate all of your efforts in the back and forth of our trip planning and will gladly recommend you and Travelive to anyone we know looking to plan a wonderful vacation to Greece (and of course, when we plan our return trip!).

Thanks very much,

Renee
