I'm considering hiring a driver with a sprinter car (6 person car) for my family while we travel in Greece but I don't know if it's worth it or really expensive. Have any of you done this in Greece before and is it feasible?

I have never done this as I would not really know where to do this. When in Greece I have always either rented a car or taken a taxi (that is if you can get one LOL)...thanks for stopping by!

We hired a private company to greet us at the airport and get us to Piraeus for our ferry. Can’t remember the name though! Sorry.
Found them online before we left the US and they were sooooo friendly, helpful, and spoke English for us. We were only 4 people, but maybe they have larger vehicles and could do multiple trips for you!

I think this is a good option, if you can find a trustworthy company

My family has hired taxi drivers before on the spot if we had a good feeling about the driver. We hire the driver for short rides, then feel it out. If we get a good vibe then we ask him/her for his rates if we hired for the whole day.

These are the best historical towns to visit in Greece!

If you're looking for old towns and beautiful architecture, there are a few standout places that you have to visit!! I love Thessaloniki old town because there is also great things to do all around the city and it is by the water. Chania old town is also great, and Crete is one of my favorite islands! Finally, I highly recommend going to Monemvasia, it is so beautiful and has amazing small shops with local artists and craftsmen.

Is it more difficult to island hop in Greece because of covid?

What has been everyones experience? Should I stick to one island instead of jumping around?

These are the best places to go in Greece if youre a wine lover!

These are the islands where my favorite wines are from! Ive only been to Santorini and Mykonos to try their amazing wines in person but Paros and Nemea are next on my list!! I always like to book a tour of the best wineries on each island that I visit because I like to do a tasting and buy a few bottles to enjoy for dinner with my family. Please let me know if there are any other locations that would be great for wine tasting! Cheers

Sixteen Airlines Promise to Refund Passengers in 7 Days After Flight Cancellations |

This is ridiculous on the part of the Airlines of the World, they withheld Millions in Various currencies of the world because they did not have liquidity and many Governments wouldn't bail them out so they were were in serious financial difficulties.This is welcome news at last.This proves how weak the consumer law really is.....And has taken EU Commission over 20 months to reach this decision. Issuing vouchers shouldn't have been allowed in the first place....My personal opinion there is an Enforcement action served on the Airlines, because it is far from easy to take them on! Excellent on part of Aegean Airlines (Greece) to participate in issuing refunds!
