The hotel was gorgeous and located in a really nice setting. There was quite a walk into the town, but it kept the noise at a distance! Even though we enjoyed going into the town for the clubs and bars, we spent a couple of really nice evenings just sat at the pool bar. The hotel was extremely good value too.
Had the most amazing time on this trip (AIRTOURS). The coach trip was quite long, but had sufficient stops, which broke the journey up a bit. We were given about 4 hours to explore Athens when we arrived. The underground is really hectic...use it if you dare! We climbed to the top of Lykavittos hill, which was strenuous, but worth every step, then to Plaka and then to see the changing of the guards. The next day we went to the Acroplois and to see the Olympic stadium. The trip was fantastic.
We booked to go on this trip with our rep...TOTAL waste of money (10000dr- Direct Holidays). Had a terrible day as the weather was bad and we had to turn back once we got to the Blue caves, as the sea was too rough. After having had a disappointing and expensive day, we went into the town and booked to go on the Delfini for only 4000dr. That trip was so much better. The shipwreck was great, but the rest of the trip is a bit long, with few other interesting sites. We were cautious at first about the vendors in the town, but the boat and the facilities were much better on the Delfini than on our first trip.
