Let’s start planning Upon request/booking, I create, manage and many times I guide tours to Greece. From the moment you decide that you want to visit the mythical mountains, and azure waters of Greece, I am here to help you design your ideal itinerary. Together, we can create your own customized trip tailored to what interests you most about our legendary land. There will be several steps until you have your final itinerary and I strongly believe that communication is the key! Why this can be a match for you: You have a trip already in mind or are semi-booked. Now you need to optimize, fine-tune, and add hidden gems or special touches. You are in the process of researching destinations, feeling lost and overwhelmed. You need confidence in your travel plans and itinerary. You are not sure what you would like to see because you are lacking information. You need expert-backed suggestions and guidance. My name is Efi and over the last 10 years, I have walked with hundreds of travellers, exploring cosmopolitan beaches and charming villages throughout Greece. All my packages includes 3-5 destinations. In case you want to include more islands or places of interest there might be an extra cost. Please make sure you answer all the required questions and provide all the specifics that will help me send you back the itinerary of your ideal trip. Safe travels always, Efi Kalogirou

ABOUT
Welcome to my page! My name is Efi, full name Efthymia and yes I am Greek. With my 4 kids we have lived in several countries including Turkey, Romania, New Zealand, Jordan, Lebanon and the Philippines. While living abroad I learned the importance of having a local's guidance and help. It is priceless. Being an expat I understand the hard way the challenges to live and explore a place. Greece, to many, is the dream vacation of a lifetime: the islands and beaches, the ruins and museums, the food and wine. I hear you! This is a beautiful say I read the other day ''𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒕𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒆 𝒂 𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒅 π’Šπ’•'' I am that type of a traveler that I always want to eat like a local. Meaning ..with them, trying their local food, wherever it's possible. Because they know! I know It's not easy to get that! Most of the time, you need a local to reveal the place, or invite you over to their backyard. In Greece, like in some other places, It is part of our culture and consider yourself lucky if you ever have this opportunity. Imagine clay pots with delicious food slowly cooked over the fire. Picture yourself near the water or even at the beach ..cooking and signing and letting yourself absorb the aura from the Aegean sea. Think of a group of people celebrating life, without any specific reason, just that ..getting together over the food. This is what I visualize when I hear the word ''authentic experience'' This is what I provide ..trips that include authentic experiences. Trips that will fill your mouth with tastes that you will crave back home and you will want to try again. I believe people travel to relax, to escape, to experience something different and they want the real thing, not a tourist fast food service. So, would you try to ''taste'' the culture when you come to Greece? PS. I have prepared several guides for you and I keep updating my list. So stay tuned!

Questions
