Travelers' testimonials from the year 2016 - Travel in Greece with Dolphin Hellas

Received on Mon, 19 Dec. 2016

Dear Aliki,
We completed our holiday in Crete yesterday and just wanted to thank you for booking such a wonderful time for us. All arrangements were excellent. Hotels were all very comfortable and in great locations. The very best aspect of our holiday though was our guide Vangelis. He was fantastic and greatly exceeded all our expectations. He went out of his way to find interesting things for us to see and do. This included taking us for tastings at three wineries which were actually closed but opened for us. We also ate at some interesting places and he even wanted to come back on Sunday morning before we flew out to walk us through a bit more of the town we hadn't seen before.
We now feel we have some insight into the history and culture of Crete.
Thanks once again.

Cheers

Thanks to Uli I had a fantastic holiday. I was looked after every minute and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I will definitely use Dolphin Hellas again as I travel to Greece a lot and I will also consider a longer cruise in future. I wish I had found Dolphin Hellas sooner to arrange my trips for me! Amazing!

I cannot Thank Dolphin Hellas enough for all the wonderful and reliable arrangement and tours. It was GREAT!! I actually had a poor start to my holiday in Athens as I was "robbed" by a group of men who picked my pocket when I took the Metro from the airport to the hotel in Athens. These people purposely blocked my exit at Syntagma station and then someone picked my cargo pants pocket as I struggled to get out of the train! So please be careful as they work in a group! Thank God they didnt get much from my dummy wallet! Serve them right!! But it was still traumatic nonetheless.
Please be careful when taking the Metro from/to the airport. But Thankfully, after that, Dolphin Hellas' arrangement for everything else went like clockwork....not a single hitch!

Thank You Ms Uli and Dolphin Hellas! Good Job..2 Thumbs UP !!!

We had a great experience booking with Dolphin Hellas. Our agent Uli was thorough, friendly, patient and had great suggestions, even helping us make a very last minute hotel change in the middle of our trip. We would definitely use Dolphin Hellas again!

We went to Greece for our honeymoon. My husband had never been to Greece so I wanted a perfect Greek experience. We searched online for agencies to help with our travel and found Dolphin Hellas. Dolphin Hellas was more than helpful in providing the best trip of our lives! With our last minute change of honeymoon plans, Uli accommodated us and found our dream hotel in Santorini. We knew we wanted to explore Greece so she helped us book a cruise as well. Uli was amazing & put my planning at ease with all of her suggestions! I would recommend this company to anybody traveling overseas to Greece!! The most amazing unforgettable trip of our lives!

This is the second time I've used Dolphin Hellas to plan a trip in Greece from the U.S., and I've been more than pleased both times. The first was over 10 years ago, but when I found out I was going back (for a conference, to which I added some personal travel time), I didn't hesitate to contact them again. This time I worked with Uli Perchau, and she was great - very patient with my multiple questions & requests and committed to getting everything right. The packet with itineraries/tickets/transfers, etc., was waiting for me at the hotel, and it all worked out well. I found Dolphin Hellas as a recommendation on Matt Barrett's Greektravel.com website, and I highly recommend both the website & Dolphin Hellas as valuable resources for planning a trip. Neither has steered me wrong, and I'll use both again the next time I get to travel to Greece.

Thank you so much for Uli for the arrangement. She really helpful for it. We are very satisfied with Dolphin Hellas services. Well planned and good in problem solving. We have added in a child for the cruise last minute and Uli helped us to arrange for it immediately. Very appreciated. Besides, we have faced strike on the cruise day and there is no cruise for that day according to our hotel staff. But Dolphin Hellas able to arrange for it and solve the problem without worry. Thank you and good job! We will choose this tour agency again if back to Greece in future. :)

We had largely planned our trip by ourselves and only consulted Dolphin Hellas for help finding two hotels because the ones we wanted were fully booked. Dolphin Hellas was promptly communicative, well-informed and offered us interesting selections. The hotel they recommended/booked in Corfu, turned out to be vastly superior to the more expensive hotel we had thought we had wanted!

Evharistó PARA poli!! For all your good work…

Aliki – The Peloponissos tour has been an absolute success and I look forward already for the – hopefully – many coming tours.

Answers to our questionnaires are coming in since yesterday with very good reviews.

You have done an amazing job in general -and at finding perfect lunch-restaurants.
All-though most of the answers so far is pointing out that it was even too abundant J.

Everyone loved the bus-driver and Anette really wishes to work with him again (Anette will also have the Danish group in May 2017).

Both the clients and Anette was very satisfied with the local guides.

I am extremely happy of course – it was my wish for a long time, to present our clients for the Greece I love so much myselfJ- And I am really happy to work with you.

Med venlig hilsen/Kind Regards

We have been using the services of Dolphin for the past 18 years and could not be more pleased! Our agent, Uli, has almost become a member of the family (electronically). She is highly efficient and reliable and her light hearted and amusing demeanor makes her a joy to work with.

I booked online through Dolphin Hellas before leaving Australia. Uli was wonderfully helpful, especially in organising an appropriate pick up location as I was staying outside the centre of Athens. I would definitely recommend Dolphin Hellas to anyone booking travel in Greece.

We booked our tours quite last minute as we only decided on the trip very near to the date. We had checked with several tour agencies but Dolphin Hellas was the first to respond to us, within the same day. They were extremely responsive to our needs with multiple tours, and a cruise. In addition, we added last minute land tours and made changes to some of the tours we had booked earlier. Ms Uli Perschau was extremely helpful and patient with us throughout the whole process, with her recommendations and very swift response. We are very pleased with the service provided by them. I will not hesitate to recommend them to others who are planning a trip to Greece.

As you can see from my comments about my trip to Greece and the cruise, I was and am very happy with the hard work performed by the staff at Dolphin Hellas. They were the reason my brother and I dad such a wonderful and memorable trip and cruise. I would highly recommend Dolphin Hellas to anyone planning a trip to Greece. They make the planning very easy through the E-mail, over the phone, or in person. My brother and I were so pleased, we took our particular staff member out to dinner in Athens at an excellent Greek restaurant

I meant to send an email a looong time ago but it slipped my mind!

First I want to thank Uli!!!!!! She was outstanding and critical to planning our vacation in Greece! And she didn't have it easy either as we changed dates, hotels, etc along the way. Everything went perfectly!

Thank you again so much!

Greece is a beautiful country and the people are wonderful! Can't wait to go back!

This tour group is very professional and safe. They will make sure they know where they are picking you up, and you may switch buses before getting to your final bus tour, but they are good at communicating that and are always available to answer questions. My tour group became one big family, and we all had a wonderful time on the 4 day classical tour with Meteora. I would definitely recommend this group!

Very flexible and efficient service that helped us build an itinerary to suit our needs. We did the usual city centre sights and walks and also went to Aegina an hours ferry ride away to visit locations there. This was chosen to get us out of the city and off the roads. It was well worth it.

Hopefully, we would come back to Greece for the island hopping next time.

We have visited Greece with Dolphin Hellas several times over the years (is it already decades???) and always had a great experience. For the last two trips Uli Perschau made all the arrangements. She always found exactly what we were looking for and provided an extremely nice, cost-efficient and immaculately organised itinerary. We have recommended Dolphin Hellas highly to numerous friends and colleagues and plan to return to Greece on similar trips in future.

Hello Uli,

We arrived home from our trip a week ago and I just realized I should send you a short note to thank you. We had an amazing time in Greece and everything you booked for us went so smoothly.

Thank you so much for all of your help during the booking process you were such a great help. We've told plenty of people already that if they are going to book a trip in Greece that you would do a great job of helping them out.

Thank you so much,

Sincerely,

Dear Aliki,

my apologies for not replying earlier. In fact, even before you asked I wanted to tell you that we were very happy with our guide.
He is very knowledgeable, speaks excellent French and adapted well to our specific needs (a teenager and a blind person).
I would recommend him to anyone who would like to seriously visit cultural sites in Greece.

Thank you very much also for organising our trip.
With best wishes,
