Our trip to Greece and Italy arranged by Panos Zafiriou of Kivotos Travel was pretty much perfect in every way. This was a special trip for us to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary and I wanted to have a stress-free experience. We chose their "Greece and Italy Delight A" package and from the beginning Panos was very helpful, informative and quickly responded to all my questions and requests. The package included all transfers and many extras like local tours. It does cost more than doing all that on your own, but it was worth it to us not having to deal with all those details. We particularly enjoyed the cruise on the Greek-owned Celestyal Olympia because it was a smaller ship and because of the excellent service they provided. The hotels included in the package were 4-star and we found them to be very nice - especially the Orama hotel in Santorini (for which Panos provided us a free room upgrade). All reservations, transfers and tours were on time and as expected and advertised. Based on our experience I can sincerely say that if you are interested in a package vacation to Greece and Italy, I can highly recommend Kivotos Travel - a 5-star rating!

Panos is undoubtedly the absolute best. We had used his services 7 yrs ago to Greece & Turkey and our family of four loved every bit of it. This time round we did 3 different countries Croatia, Italy and Turkey and he didn’t disappoint. He looked after every single detail and was very prompt with changes and requests.
Right from the airport transfers to the luxe services he provides every thing is seamless and top notch. His expertise is unmatched.
We will not hesitate to use his services again in the future.

I contacted Kivitos by email 8 moths before we travelled. Told them basically what I thought I wanted and they did the rest. Despina was amazing, tips and tricks on how to see and get around. Accomodation was top notch all arranged by her.
Saw everything we thought we wanted to see and beyond. Just a phone call and extras were arranged.
Couldn’t get better service anywhere.

Highly recommend Kivotos of Aegean Travel and especially Panos! This is the second time I have had to opportunity to ask Panos for his expertise. Again, he made the trip completely seamless by booking add on hotels before and after the cruise by recommending great hotels. Also, booked the private car services which were prompt at each pickup. Panos also assisted with booking the shore excursion from the cruise line. Panos is the upmost professional listening to the needs of his clients and matching the needs with the best vendors. Panos' communication is quick, timely and answers all questions. Again, I highly recommend Kivotos of Aegean Travel!!

Panos was AWESOME! For over three years I have been trying to get to Greece for my anniversary but world events prevented it. Finally made the trip and the wait was worth it. Loved the Ionian Sea and every recommendation Panos offered was spot on. Could not have been a better trip. Loved the food, loved the beaches, loved how easy it was working with Panos and not having to worry about anything. Highly recommend his company and as soon as we can make it back, Panos is my first call! - Ryan and Katy (San Jose, California)

We had the best time booking through Kivotos of Aegean Travel. I worked exclusively with Panos - who was amazing!!

I had originally booked a trip that I had to cancel at the last minute due to unforeseen circumstances. Panos was super helpful and willing to work with me to cancel this and rebook the trip at a later time. He took care of everything - contacting the hotels, airlines etc. It was a huge help.

I finally went on our trip this September 2023 and it was a dream. We hopped around from Athens > Milos > Santorini > Athens. I twas SO nice having drivers and transportation coordinated at every stop - it really made the trip extra relaxing.

The hotel selection was AMAZING. Panos was very patient with me - offering me multiple options and helping me compare prices during the booking phase.

He also helped organize multiple excursions for us and was available on the fly via WhatsApp while we were traveling. He helped us with reservations while we were there which was great. He also met us at our hotel when we arrived in Athens and took us for a walk around the city/for coffee.

Would HIGHLY reccomend booking with this company. It completely took the stress out of planning an international trip away. I plan to use this company again for other future travels!

We contacted Kivotos of Aegean after doing some online research and following the good reviews. We were paired with Despina, who was an excellent trip coordinator. My wife and I took a honeymoon trip to Florence, Rome, Santorini, Mykonos and Athens.
It was the trip of a lifetime for us. The peace of mind having the most difficult parts of the trip planned for us, and having almost 24hr support in case of any minor mishaps made travelling a breeze and very stress free. The choices of hotels and local tour companies were without question of great value and of excellent service.
Highlights? In Florence, the Accademia museum was very memorable, as was our individually planned AirBNB wine tour of the Tuscan country side. It was thrilling to stand among the history in Rome, we planned our own opera experience, and the shopping was great. The sunset catamaran cruise in Santorini was a special, special experience and a day we'll always remember. Actually, Santorini in general was quite exceptional. Mykonos had great restaurants and lots of charm. I loved Athens a lot for its walkability, modern-meets-history feel, and the people. Having Despina be a WhatsApp message away made it easy to check in when there were reasonable delays to our transfers, and she was very helpful every time we checked in. Our tour never felt rushed, and we still managed to find some sleep in and nap time to keep on top of the schedule.
Lowlights? Early on in our planning we requested help to book a wine tour, and some sort of live performance, but that didn't appear to be something the company was willing to dive into, and we were instructed not to overbook our stay. So we booked a few extra things ourselves, which probably worked out for the better anyway. Not being over-the-top party people, we didn't necessarily match the vibe or price of Mykonos, and our tour to Delos was hampered by a poor tour guide (just bad luck, I think). I'm glad we went to Mykonos, but don't need to go there again. I wish the tour vouchers we were given had just a bit more information on who we were looking for when we arrived in some places, but that's just a bit nitpick-y.
Overall, this is a reputable company that delivered on an incredible experience. Was it expensive? Yes. Was it perfect? No, but it was certainly getting close. But that's travel, and for us this trip was everything we wanted and needed it to be. I would recommend this company, and in all earnestness hope you have as incredible an experience as we did!

You must do this tour in Athens. We had the most amazing tour guide who made Athens and its history even more fascinating!
Despina our travel agent could not have done a better job with hotels at different islands and all the details she arranged made our trip perfect.

This was our second time using this company to book our trip to Greece. The first was a trip just for my husband and I just after COVID, and we loved our experience so much that we decided to come back again. This time we brought along my parents and our 3 kids. Throughout the entire booking process our agent was amazing. She was very quick with responding back when I had any questions or wanted to make any changes or additions to our trip. Everything was great and we didn’t have to worry about a thing because it was all planned out for us. This includes all of our transfers to and from the airport, hotels, ports and the included excursions. The meals included were good even for the pickiest of eaters. The accommodations that we stayed at were in great locations for shopping, swimming, or site seeing. If there was ever any troubles (which there was not) we had the contact information to get in touch with someone at anytime. Some of the excursions you have included or add will allow you to get to know more of the culture or sites or enjoy the scenery. We stayed in Athens, did a motor coach through Olympia, Delphi, and Meteora, stayed in Mykonos, Santorini, Naxos, and ended back in Athens before coming back to the states. We added some excursions to our package which were great, and then we added extra things that were “different” in our own. Like one trip we did a flying dress photo shoot and marble carving. Despite being there 2 and a half weeks both times we went, I feel like I could spend a lifetime there and never get enough of this beautiful country, enriching culture, and delicious food!

My husband and I went on our honeymoon to Rome, Positano, Santorini and Athens. Panos was an amazing travel consultant and our contact through Kivotos of Aegean Travel. Everything was seamless and so well organized. Panos really took a lot of the stress of planning off our plates. He set up hotels, transportation, wonderful tours of both the Colosseum and Acropolis as well as booked a Sunset Catamaran Cruise in Santorini. It was the trip of a lifetime and we owe it to Panos for helping make it so. I would recommend Panos and the company to anyone that wants an amazing trip!
