  So let me preface this by saying I have not gone on a sail yet and with Corona happening, have put my sail off another year. If the sail is half as good as the customer service I have received then it'll all be amazing. My review is long so if you want to skip the details just go to the last paragraph. My fiancée and I were supposed to get married in Italy this summer and after the wedding go to Greece with some of our friends and family for a sail. After looking at multiple offerings from various companies, Med Sailing had the best deals. We worked with Geoff (Fleet Manager) to find two boats that would work best for us. He answered a trillion questions we had about the best yachts and options for our sail and we booked two private yachts. We paid our deposit and waited. 1ST ISSUE. Uh oh, another person wants to be added to the sail, the boats we currently booked weren't the best option. Cue Geoff coming through in the clutch the 1st time. We spoke, I found a better option, Geoff made it happen and changed one of the boats to make the additional passenger fit. No-fuss, no-hassle, an email, and it was done. What a relief, we're going sailing! Or so we thought... A little over a month rolls by and here comes the 2ND ISSUE, COVID. My fiancée and I freak out a bit because where does this leave the trip now? We can't travel internationally yet, we had to postpone our wedding, restrictions are being lifted slowly but not quick enough for us to know if we could actually sail. The two yachts we booked through Med Sailing were from two different companies and one was willing to push our sail back to 2021 the other was unsure. Geoff talked to us and with the unsure company and they wanted the full price of booking for us to move the date to 2021. That is a reasonable request but Covids full unknown impact, especially on the economy (Will me or my spouse get laid off?) had me worried about committing another €2500 to a sail that was a year away. If necessary we could pay but having the flexibility to pay later was important to me in this unknown time. Cue Geoff coming in clutch the 2nd time. I explained to Geoff I would greatly appreciate the ability to pay later, and he talked with the company and with us to find a solution and got it done. We had both the yachts pushed back to a 2021 sailing date. The number of emails me and my fiancée have had with Geoff would drive any sane person crazy. Not on our end but on his. We have asked a trillion questions, have changed things, have questioned things, have requested things; We were not the easiest customers. I don't know how Geoff has responded so quickly, helped us so much, and kept a positive demeanor throughout it all but he has. Just knowing the company is willing to listen and jump through as many hoops as Geoff has to assist us shows me they really do care about their customers. I'm glad we did research and booked with them. I honestly don't know anything other than pricing about other sailing companies but I would bet it would be hard to find one with as good of customer service as Med Sailing. Thanks Geoff! *Will update with more info after actual sail*

  Trip was very good except for the days I missed when I was sick - not to my stomach. Kostas our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable. Ferry trips in the islands were a highlight. THe islands are beautiful and very inteesting. So much history there though Athens where it all started is overwhelming. Highly recommend this adventure!

  Truly a spectacular tour in every respect—hotels, restaurants, sites, and authentic experiences were exceptional! I highly recommend PicTours of Greece for providing a high-quality, perfectly executed, memorable tour. Tour manager George is a superb communicator/leader and executed every detail of the trip flawlessly, orchestrating logistics with authority and ease. He was also flexible and super-accommodating to special requests/needs. Babis is a tour guide extraordinaire who dazzled the group with his impressive historical and cultural knowledge and interesting, fun commentaries. Hotels, restaurants, and sites in Athens, Crete, and Santorini were all first-rate and very well chosen. From iconic sites to hidden gems and unique cultural experiences bursting with local color and Greek hospitality, the tour was well-planned and well-paced. The scrumptious culinary experiences were a huge highlight of the trip—amazing food every single day! Would definitely book another trip with PicTours.
