What travelers are saying
"I did the EBC trek with Intrepid in September and October. Our group missed the first 3 days of the planned 12 day trek due to bad weather. There was a real fear we would not be able to do the trek at all. Intrepid sorted out additional accommodation and flights once we were able to fly. Our group made it to EBC by missing the 2 acclimation days on the accent and descending in 3 days instead of 4. This was only possible because of the awesome staff (guides and porters) employed by Intrepid and by Intrepid's backroom staff making alternative accommodation and flight arrangements for us."

Tour: Greek Island Wanderer
Santorini Tour Selection Trips
- Santorini is a common destination for honeymoons - plan a custom trip!
- The food in Santorini is heavily seafood based. If you have allergies or an aversion to seafood be sure to let your tour leader know well in advance.
- There is much to see beyond the famous postcard destination in the North. Going on a tour will reveal many hidden gems around the entire island that you might not have seen otherwise.
- Tours to Greece don't always include Santorini or the islands, and are only focused on the mainland. Be sure to check if you're interested in visiting Santorini!
