What Our Travelers Say
Parthenon plus Greek Islands: wow!
Nov 2025 • Friends
Anthony was a delight to work with and did a fabulous job organizing our trip. After we disembarked from a Viking cruise in Athens, he got us a tour of the Parthenon followed by 3 wonderful days on Naxos followed by 3 on Crete. All the arrangements made - tour guides, transfers, hotels, etc. went perfectly smoothly and the trip was delightful!

Greek travel agency with great suggestions!
Nov 2025 • Couples
Our US based travel agent used this travel agency to book our stays on three of Greece’s beautiful islands. The hotels they selected were very nice and clean. We were happy with the selection. They booked all of your transfers and they were prompt and reliable. They bought a lovely welcome gift at the start of the visit. On some of the stops, we had a personal greeting who helped orient us to the island. However, this was not at every stop. When they did arrive, it was very helpful to know what the next steps would be and to navigate the ferry and airport. The tours that were booked were also wonderful and had great locals giving us the history and culture insight! My favorite was the tour in Naxos with a local guide. They were responsive to WhatsApp messages as well for answering questions. The only issue we had was when we needed an advocate with a local tour (that changed the boat at the last minute) we did not receive much assistance on help with clear answers or advocacy to have a choice in completing the day trip on a boat that was different than agreed at booking. We were on our own at the port. Overall, good travel agency with mostly perfect choices! Very reliable!!!

Anthony was fabulous to work with!
Oct 2025 • Family Travel
Reaching out to Anthony at Antelope Travel to help us plan for our time in Athens was the absolute BEST decision I made. He was so easy to work with and planned everything to perfection! He listened to our goals and needs for our trip arranging for a private driver to pick us up from the airport and take us around Athens along with a private tour guide. The people that he arranged for were wonderful and really made our tour special ! He coordinated our meal reservations and hotel accommodations and tickets for the Acropolis, etc. He handled it all which made it so easy for me. If traveling in Greece, definitely reach out to him - you will not be disappointed!

An amazing Greek Adventure
Oct 2025 • Couples
Our group of 3 couples enlisted the services of Antelope Travel. The agency was able to clearly communicate with the group and organize an AMAZING 14 day Greek adventure. We began in Athens, experienced the Acropolis and Acropolis Museum with a wonderful guide. She was knowledgeable, kind funny, such a joy. We transferred to Mykonos and enjoyed spectacular beach resort, cooking class, sunset catamaran cruise, relaxation. Due to weather conditions we had to remain an extra day, the agency assisted with new ferry tickets and accommodations. We then moved to Santorini, beautiful! Sunset cruise, overall island tour, winery stop- lovely. The transfers were seamless, the guides wonderful. The last stop in the adventure was Crete. We started in Heraklion, amazing guide in Knosses Palace and Museum. Headed to Chania. Beautiful villa, cooking class in Vamos village, so fun! The beaches of Elafinisi and Kendrosas were remarkable! Again, the transfers and assistance were great. This traveler would highly recommend reaching out to Antelope Travel for any Greek Adventures, Anthony was very communicative and terrific to work with. A vacation to remember. Thank you from the group.

Fabulous Trip to Athens Mykonos Santorini Crete
Oct 2025 • Couples
Recently visited Athens, Mykonos, Santorini, and Crete with the help of Anthony from Antelope Travel. Every detail was planned out, and he also helped us fine tune the trip along the way. Our tour of the Acropolis and the museum in Athens, was top notch. Ms. Terpsichori led us on a wonderful tour, sharing her knowledge of Greek history. Truly a delight! Our stay at the Petinos Beach Hotel in Mykonos was lovely. Steps to the beach and a short ride to our catamaran sunset cruise on the Ariel. We participated in a cooking class at Tera's Mykonos's Spiti; learned all about Greek cooking and the food was delicious! High winds delayed our ferry trip to Santorini, but Anthony stepped in and made alternate plans for us to stay in Mykonos. Thank you, Anthony! Our tour guide in Santorini led us on a custom tour of the monastery and black beach, and Effie led us on a tour of Akrotiri Excavations, a wondrous site. In Crete, Georgia escorted us through Knossos Palace and the museum, and shared all her information about the history of the Minoan people.
