WITH TURKEY EXTENSIONS Island Hopping Best Value Hotels Programs & Tours

2016 www.gtc.com.gr I was born and raised in Greece, so it is a great privilege that I can show people from around the world my beautiful country. Since I started working in the travel industry my greatest enjoyment is seeing the amazement on the faces of tourists who come to Greece. It is a joy to see their expressions when they admire the famous historical sites, try authentic Greek food and when they talk with the locals. It has been over 25 years since I started as a reservation consultant. At first I worked in a small family run agency, which grew to a much larger business, which was eventually taken over by a multinational company. I've seen many sides of industry, but in returning to a boutique office, where customer service, experience and attention to detail is more important that corporate results, I can truly say I am much happier. It's great to still be able to welcome tourists with the same smile as I did when I started in the industry many years ago. While many are drawn to Greece due to the country's history and the beauty of the Greek Islands, it is the welcoming nature of the Greek people that has tourists returning year after year. Despite the difficulties that Greece has gone through over the last few years it has just made us work even harder to provide a great holiday experience for our clients. When my brother, who now lives in United States, returns home, often bring friends along, it is such a festive environment and continues to reinforce for me how much I love what I do. Showing the best of Greece to everyone who wish to use our services. Let Greece Travel Corporation welcome you to Greece so you can see and experience the best that my country has to offer - the same way as my friends and relatives do when they come over. We hope that our personal service, great prices and attention to detail will turn your Greek holiday into the best holiday ever. YIA !

6 GREECE TRAVEL CORPORATION – GREECE 2016 Hotels in Greece what you need to know

Be aware that hotels found on various websites may not always offer better products or services than the hotels we recommend. They may just spend more money on online advertising! Internet searches usually return hundreds of options in each location. The huge volume of hotels on offer can be quite daunting, and it becomes a challenge to find the right hotel for your needs and at the right price. Our recommended hotels are conveniently located, well priced, their staff provide friendly and helpful service and understand the needs of our clientele, that is why in our view, they are the best value for money hotels. By selecting one of our hotels you can rest assured that you will be staying at a hotel that many of our previous clients have used and were happy with. Talk to our team and we will recommend a hotel that meets your budget and expectations. We retain a wide range of hotels for you to choose from, but have selected for the brochure only a few in each category due to space limitations. Should you wish to book a hotel that is not listed in the brochure please do not hesitate to contact us, as we are able to book hundreds of hotels throughout Greece. Hotel star ratings There is no official star rating classification in Greece despite the fact that some hotels display star rating. Greek National Tourist Organization classifies hotels into six categories: "L" (deluxe), A","B", "C","D","E". In general as hotels vary significantly in quality, size, facilities and style, classification is based on room sizes, number of restaurants or other facilities for example parking. A-class hotels are usually shown as 4 star, B as 3 or 4 star, C as 3 and D as 2 but this is not a rule. The higher category does not always guarantee that the hotel is better. It is not uncommon to find a 2 or 3 star hotel which is as good as or even better than 4 star. It may be renovated offering a great service while the 4 star maybe be of older style, remote location or with poor service. We do not recommend using the official or websites classification when selecting hotel. Sometimes a hotel in one destination can be of significantly different quality than the same category hotel in another location. Hotel prices Hotel prices in Greece are very seasonal especially on the islands. It is common to find that the same room in high season costs four times than in low season. Any internet search will reveal a large number of hotels. The result vary significantly between what can be found in main town like Athens and Thessaloniki, the large island like Crete and Rhodes, and the small islands. Hotels of the same category may vary significantly in price due to its location, not only facilities and services offered. In the main towns where there are large numbers of hotels, the prices are more competitive; while on the islands where the hotels are usually small, some hoteliers may inflate prices due to demand. The hotel owners can call a room a suite despite the fact that it is a room only – rooms can be called premium or deluxe, superior despite the non-existing differences in order to command a higher price. Descriptions online can be very misleading. Many hoteliers advertise rooms with sea views despite the fact that the sea may be a distance of five to ten kilometres from the hotel. The cheaper options will not reveal that their location is in a red light district or may describe distance to attractions or restaurants as two minute walk while in fact they are at least two kilometres away. For example to attract bargain hunters some properties in Santorini do not disclose that the hotel is not on the cliff, is facing the other side of the island or that it is in remote location. The large number of steps required to reach the reception or pool is also often omitted. "Boutique" Hotels in Greece The latest trend in Greek hotel naming is to include the word "boutique". This is a general term and no one is quite sure what it really means in Greece. Unfortunately, quite often some hotels called boutique online may just offer small rooms at high prices. The real boutique hotels in Greece fall into two categories - ones that are newly built and others that are renovated. In the case of renovated properties, the actual building may be a vintage structure for example an farm, factory or sea captain's and merchants residence and revamped mansions. When the hotel is newly-built, it usually means that the structure itself is architecturally interesting in some way. Please ask us for recommendation when selecting boutique hotels. Location, Location, Location The hoteliers, as well as many online booking engines, use loose terms to describe hotel locations. Words commonly used are: access to transport, close to attractions or town, near the beach etc. It is important that some attractions may be suitable for some and not for the others. Close to town may mean next to the nightclubs and near the beach may be a holiday resort in the middle of nowhere. Clients can get a surprise on arrival when they realise that that the only way to access they idyllic hotel is by donkey trail or that they have to take a taxi each time they want to have a dinner in a restaurant other than the one at the hotel. Descriptions about hotel locations are commonly vague, and as there are usually no street names on the islands, it is almost impossible to locate the exact location of the hotel on a map. Distances described on the website are usually inaccurate. Hotels pictures The quality of websites or pictures used does not always represent the true value of the hotel or guarantee the service. Some hotels spend enormous amount of money and create amazing website while the others don’t. Many private, family operated and small quality hotels are on limited advertising budget and offer basic websites and pictures. They usually do not appear on the first page of popular search engines and are hard to find amongst the hundreds usually displayed online. Most hotels and websites publish the pictures of the selected rooms only and categories are quite often unclear. It is common that rooms of the same categories vary in style and sizes. The room types and facilities of hotels vary greatly between destinations in Greece especially on the islands. Our recommended hotels We at Greece Travel Corporation inspect the hotels regularly and we are able to describe and compare hotels for you. We do not work with every hotel as we select not to. We represent hotels that provide quality accommodation, professional service at the fair price. We know the hotel actual location, the real standard, the number of steps, which are suitable for honeymooners and which are better for mature travellers. We are a destination specialist and recommend hotels that are suitable for each traveller. You may find hotels for less but you may not like your surroundings or find that the money you save is being spent on getting to and from the archaeological sites, shopping and dining areas. We can advise which hotels are suitable for people looking to enjoy the nightlife or who wish for an authentic boutique experience.

GREECE TRAVEL CORPORATION – GREECE 2016 23 We realise how difficult it is to know what to do and how best to do it when you are planning a visit to a place that you haven't been to before. We have therefore used our experience together with comments of our past clients to prepare our selection of programs. Programs are basically combinations of accommodation, day tours or multi day tours and in some cases cruises or island stays are included within the package. Over the next number of pages (pages 24 to 57) you will find a variety of programs together with numerous options for you to choose from. Large Selection of Programs As people travel in different times and want to visit different places we offer a large selection of programs which can be described as: Special Greece Programs

SPECIAL Programs to highlight the Islands of the Gods, and so we have even named the itineraries after the Greek Gods (page 24 to 28). What these itineraries offer are visits to Athens as well as Rhodes, Crete, Santorini and Mykonos (to all of them or some). With us however, not only do you get to stay on these legendary islands, but we have also included walking escorted tours. Our guides are locals who live and work on the islands and know them intimately. Of course we also use best value hotels on each island so that we can offer to you a great holiday at a great price. Those programs depart selected days only. Flexible Greece Programs FLEXIBLE If you are interested to visit major archaeological sites on the mainland as well as some of the Greek Islands we offer several programs (page 29 to 43). Most operate on a daily basis although the sequence of itineraries may vary depending on arrival day as the mainland coach tours do not operate daily. If your idea of a Greek holiday revolves around seeing the islands, then we have a selection of programs commonly known as Island Hopping that combine various islands with most of them operating daily (page 36 to 43). We also offer Island Hopping Passes and FlexiPasses (Page 58-69). Mamma Mia Programs MAMMA You've seen the movie and hummed the tunes, so why not travel MIA to the islands where some of the best scenes of Mama Mia were shot, namely Skiathos and Skopelos? Please refer to pages 118-119. Cruise & Stay Programs CRUISE For those of you who would love to see the islands but also love cruising, we have programs that combine Athens with a cruise. We also offer cruise and stay on the island options (page 45 to 49). From Greece to Turkey Programs TWO Start your holiday in Athens, hop via the beautiful Greek COUNTRIES Islands, visit the principal sites on the Turkish mainland and finish in magical Istanbul with as many days and nights as you desire. Selection of programs combining 2 countries are on page 50 to 57. Similar programs that start in Turkey and finish in Greece can be found in our Turkey 2016 brochure. Transfers at no extra charge Our transfer services in Athens are available 24 hours a day with no surcharge for night transfers. If you book additional accommodation with us before or after a package which has transfers in its inclusions, then these will still be provided to you at no additional cost. Flexible itineraries We are very good at many things but we excel at flexibility. Our itineraries have been designed to suit the needs of most independent travellers, but we encourage you to stay longer if you can. Adding an extra night or an additional island could greatly enhance your trip. If you would like a different choice of islands, more time or less time in certain cities and/or islands or if you would like more expensive, less expensive, more central, boutique or special category hotels on either one island or all of them we will arrange it.

If you are keen to see as much as possible without moving locations every single day, a cruise is the way to go for you. It is the most convenient and comfortable way to see a variety of islands and even visit different countries in a short period of time. Your accommodation moves during the night while you get a restful sleep and allows you to wake up in a new and exciting destination every day. For your convenience, we have created several packages over the next few pages (50 -54) that combine Athens with different cruise itineraries throughout the Greek Islands and other parts of the Mediterranean.

Most of the cruises start in Athens and visit many locations around Greece and Turkey in relatively short period of time and they offer various itineraries and departure days. As not every traveller follows the same path when they travel and have different time restrictions, we have on offer a large selection of programs which can be described as:

GREECE TRAVEL CORPORATION – GREECE 2016 79 Experience the magic of the Greek islands and take one of our Island Hopping Pass! Greek islands unlike anywhere else in the world give you mix of beauty, atmosphere, nightlife, food, history, sun and the sea. Island hopping is visiting a selection of the islands using local ferries. Booking an Island Hopping Pass with us provides you with peace of mind. We take care of Greece's fickle ferry system, allowing you to hop between the Islands with a minimum of fuss. Your ferry tickets are pre-booked and delivered to your hotel room. There is no battle for accommodation, your hotel reservation is confirmed, even at the peak of the season. We let you add extra nights or amend hotels listed should you prefer to upgrade and stay somewhere else. We offer two main type of Island hopping packages with different inclusions and accommodation. • Passes 1-9: Island hopping passes with preselected islands and set amount of nights on each. Hotels are confirmed at the time of booking, hence you know exactly where you will stay and the facilities that you will be able to enjoy at your hotels. Detailed description of most hotels can be found on relevant island pages. Transfers on the island are optional extras. • Flexible Island Hopping Passes: are based on total number of nights regardless of island visited. Transfers on the islands are included. Hotels name are provided on arrival. (Page 73) Recommended Stay Generally speaking most of the small Greek islands can be explored in a few days, most islands although require a minimum 3 or 4 night stay in order to see the highlights. Without rush you can enjoy several islands in just a couple of weeks. Which Pass to Choose Each island is different and unique in its own way. As such it is impossible to recommend one island over the other. We suggest a visit to several islands in order to enjoy the variety and different attractions which they have to offer. However, if you are on a time limit, it is highly recommended to visit fewer of them and explore those that you choose in detail. Ferry Duration Most passes include the use of a standard ferry which can sometimes take a long time due to the distances between the islands (See map page 4). Please note that should you wish to reduce travelling time, we allow an upgrade to better seats or to a hydrofoil or a flight at an extra cost. Islands Transfers In order to satisfy the budget conscious, we have not included transfers on the Islands with passes 1-9. However we strongly recommend adding them in your package as it is sometimes extremely difficult and at times impossible to find public transport or taxis, especially during peak season. Street names are not used on many of the islands and it can prove to be a challenge to locate some hotels. Athens Stay As ferries to the islands usually leave early morning, arriving one day prior is essential . Accommodation in Athens is not included in Pass 1-9, however can be added . Please refer to a large selection of recommended hotels (page 11-16).Additionally, most ferries arrive back to Athens in the evening, hence arranging post night is also recommended. For those who wish to connect with flight out of Athens on the same day as their departure from the island, we suggest upgrading to a flight.

Santorini is the place to fall in love! It’s an island that has inspired poets and musicians with its breath taking sunsets and crystal waters rippling over the Caldera. With its whitewashed houses, blue-domed churches and never-ending vineyards, Santorini is Greece at its traditional best. Some theories state that Santorini was once part of the fabled lost continent of Atlantis - a fact which has provided inspiration to great many artists and writers. The black shining pebbles, the bizarre-looking land formations and the black, white and red sands all form to create unforgettable scenery. As evening approaches couples head to the beautiful town of Oia to secure their own romantic candle-lit table and watch the brilliant sun sink beneath the shimmering Aegean Sea. Unforgettable!
