Honeymoons YEARS OF Upscale Travel EXCELLENCE Culinary Experiences 51 Hotels always First Class & Deluxe A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT DEAR TRAVELER, As we begin our sixth decade of arranging travel to Greece, we are enthusiastic about the future of travel to the ever- popular country of Greece. The beauty of the country continually and consistently attracts every type of traveler, from honeymooners to families, from those who love to travel off the beaten path to scene-loving jet-setters, from those who like to travel independently to those who prefer to be escorted throughout.

One thing that has remained constant through our last fifty- one years in business is the experience and precision that has made Homeric Tours the company that it is today. Through the ever-changing travel industry, Homeric Tours has remained true to our founding principles of providing unmatched value and service.

We once offered Greece as our only destination, solidifying us as experts in the market. Over the past decades, we have grown, as have our vacation and destination offerings, to include the other Mediterranean and European countries. We truly cater to all types of travelers, by offering independent vacations, partially escorted and escorted tours. We can plan any experience, from honeymoons to group travel, island-hopping packages to classical motorcoach tours and everything in between.

This year’s brochure contains several types of ways to vacation and travel in Greece: independent vacations, locally hosted tours or fully-escorted packages. These vacations are the highest standard of quality in the market. We hope these vacations excite you as much as they did us while we created them. We guarantee that you will find only the best service, experience and value when traveling with Homeric Tours. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, one of our travel specialists will customize an itinerary just for you.

Thank you for all allowing us the opportunity to pass along our love of travel to you. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

2 HOMERIC TOURS GREECE 20202019 Why Homeric Tours is the Best Choice to Greece

First let me say the trip to Greece and Italy was amazing. Everything flowed like clockwork: drivers right there, even when we arrived in Athens from Venice an hour an half late, but the driver was right there. We never had to worry if they would show up. Hotels were all amazing. Each one different, it was fun to see what the next hotel would be like. Cruise was everything we could have hoped for and more. The port stops were wonderful and food was good; especially, the coffee and Greek Ice Cream. Again, I can never thank you enough for making the trip a wonderful trip. – SANDRA S., NASHVILLE, TN

My clients absolutely loved their time in Greece. Their favorite was the Classical Tour, and they absolutely loved . They wished they would spend more time there, beautiful and a lot to experience. They loved the hotels, and all went efficiently. Thanks again for your help.

What can you do in two hours? It seems like not too much, but in Europe you can move from one country to another. You can change not only the view, but also the culture, language and cuisine. The wonderfully diversified “Old Continent” gives travelers that unique opportunity to experience contrasting landscapes, colorful folklore and complicated, yet fascinating history within a small geographic area. It is truly amazing to be able to witness the difference in personalities, to understand the nuances of the religion and compare styles of architec- ture. This is why we encourage you to combine your Greek experience with stays in Italy or possibly even with visiting another continent by booking packages to Holy Land, Egypt or Jordan. Why not enrich your stay if another world’s wonder is only a few hours away?
