BEFORE YOU GO · CAUTIONARY DETAILS
Distances are short, the standing is long
Two or three hours mostly on your feet on hard ground. Comfortable shoes matter more than fitness.
The route is public space
Markets, lanes and places of worship are where people live and pray. Ask before photographing anyone and cover up where others do.
Cash for the small things
Tea, a fritter, an entry ticket. Card acceptance in old quarters is patchy at best.
Ask what the group size will be
A walking tour of six and one of thirty are different products at the same price. It is a fair question.

Delphi & Meteora done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it. Would send friends their way.

Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. The cooking was a genuine surprise — better than most places we'd have picked ourselves. Solid operator.

Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. No complaints about any of the hotels — all of them well placed. Crew were professional without being stiff about it. Solid operator.

Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for.

Questions people ask

Yes, and it is enforced. Shoulders and knees covered for everyone; women must wear a skirt, and wraps are lent at each gate. They are working monasteries, not museums.
