Trip to Greece
Highly recommended in all aspects, from the moment we were received at the airport, we experienced very kind guides, They ensure that we know everything we needed to know. They gave tips and everything in Spanish. The hotels are well. Customer service is the best I have experienced in my life. I loved meeting Athens, Mykonos, and Santorini. I would definitely go back and hire them again. this company is better than the ones I have used previously. They know how to satisfy their customers. If you want to go to Greece, Athens, Ensure you go with Greca, They are the best.

Greca Tours SHAME ON YOU!!!!!!!!
These guys are shamelessly not only stealing people’s money but also giving the worst possible impression of their country. We paid for a 4/5 star package for our family of 6, but they booked us in 2/3 star hotels at best, in run-down areas far from any attractions/tours. They blackmailed us into paying an additional few thousand during the trip to keep impossible bookings they had made for excursions. We were booked 45 minutes to an hour from the airport in run-down areas pretty much the whole trip, and 3-5 am wake-up calls almost every day, 8 hotels in 14 days, with 4 kids. The itinerary we received from them initially changed as soon as we started the trip.
Once they received the money, they were only concerned about making the most margin by booking the cheapest places/tours. We heard the same sentiment from multiple transportation drivers about this company, who usually end up dealing with unhappy customers. Most of the telephone numbers for emergencies on the itinerary do not work, we even went to their office, which is very shady, and the owner couldn’t care less. He simply said they are either too big or too small to manage our concerns. Pathetic excuse of a businessman that he calls himself.
I can go on and on about their lack of professionalism and sense of responsibility, but the bottom line is there are plenty of honest tour booking companies out there to risk your family vacation with a company like this.
They are total SCAMMERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please review all negative comments about Greca Travel Agency on as many sites possible before booking. The reviews on their Greca website are all reviewed by them prior to uploading so they never upload the true horror stories.
They are a complete scam of a company. They booked us in hotels far away from the popular sides of Athens, Mykonos and Santorini. Not to mention the one in Santorini had ants all over it. Refused to give back any refunds or book us in a new hotel. If you have to change the time of any of your transfers/taxis that they booked, they’ll charge you for an additional transfer and that’ll cost more than if you just booked an Uber/taxi yourself. They were impossible to contact during the trip and refused to respond back to me the last 3 days of my trip. Their guide that met us the first night at your hotel to go over our itinerary knew NOTHING and was horrible with English. We had a 4 night travel tour around the main island of Greece that they sell to you as a Greca tour but it’s actually through GO Tours. The guy explains your itinerary said to pack light and don’t take luggage so we only stuffed as much clothes as we could into a duffel bag that we luckily had. Every one on the 4 night tour bus had all of their luggage and we looked like idiots.
Bottom line is, PLEASE don’t waste your money on this scam of a company. I’m taking the time to post these comments on different websites to protect future people wanting to plan a nice trip and to hopefully get this horrible company shutdown.

Pro:
-having a local contact on every island to assist us via WhatsApp
Cons:
-payment processing was an issue as their system kept messing up but they kept telling me it was my bank. My bank had no record of the charge coming through. Had to split the payments into Installments for it to go through.
-hotels were so far away from the hot spots (both downtown Athens and Mykonos town and Fira/Oia). Hotels minus the last also had very spotty wifi and did not seem like 4 star hotels we upgraded to.
-didn’t confirm I received updated itinerary and we missed a tour because of it. When we had to call they didn’t take ownership on this.
-put us in a hotel on a steep hill with 2 people aged 65+ and refused to assist. Told us “you had 21 days to review your hotels and update” well we couldn’t see the hill of the street the place was on in photos. Told us if we wanted to go elsewhere they would help us look but we’d have to pay. No refunds. So helpful.
- forgot to pick us up or cancelled our tour and after an hour and a half on the phone got picked up in a car and brought to a bus for a completely different tour than we selected.
- did not schedule us a transfer to our hotel at the end of our trip from ferry even though this was included the rest of the trip.
Honestly never again. Lesson learned next time find our own hotels and schedule our own tours and transfers. The aggravation of this company was not worth it.

Warning, this agency is a scam! I begged and pleaded with them to help me after I was attacked by a dog. I had booked a dream trip with them six months earlier. They sat on it and did nothing for two weeks and then told me it was too late. Their customer service is horrible. They are leader ship did nothing to assist me. Do not use this agency.!! Feel free to reach out to me for copy of consumer fraud report

I booked the trip online and then over the phone they helped me to change hotels as I wanted to stay with some other friends. Also they helped to book some tours in Mykonos and Santorini.
If I ever go back to Greece, will definitely use their services again.

The tour and tour guides were exceptional. Where things got troublesome was in Cairo. Greca tours had encouraged us to rent a room for the night layover. When we came back from Aswan we were expecting to be taken to our room but they decided not to because of time and transportation constraints. We never got a refund for the room. Then they insisted on pressuring us to pay the tipping fee of $100 after we had already been tipping people everywhere.

Hola buenas me encuentro en El Cairo de vacaciones, cogí un paquete con esta compañía Greca, cosa que nunca tenía que haber hecho, mi paquete incluía visa,traslados y recogidas a todas partes( de aeropuerto a hotel, de hotel a aeropuerto, excursiones, etc) para no tener problemas añadí también todos los extras y excursiones que se podían añadir. Hasta hay todo bien pues sólo era pagar dinero y ya, pero para mi sorpresa 😳 la pesadilla interminable empieza Justo al aterrizar en El Cairo, nadie me estaba esperándome, se supone que alguien vendría a recogerme para llevarme al hotel y darme mi visa, cosa que nunca paso, me vi solo en un país donde ni apenas se habla inglés solo árabe, me toco pagar de nuevo la visa en aeropuerto, estaba sin internet y solo en el aeropuerto sin ni siquiera saber cómo o que hacer para llegar al hotel, llame a Greca varias veces pero nadie me dio una solución, eran las 12 de la noche y me habían dejado solo y tirado como a un perro, me toco pagar de nuevo la visa en el aeropuerto 50 dólares cuando ya pague a Greca 85 euros por ella, me toco pagar de mi bolsillo también el traslado al hotel y buscarme la vida allí solo con los locales del Cairo 150 dólares más, cuando ya se supone que lo tenia pagado también. La pesadilla continúa cuando llegó al hotel y me dicen que no hay ninguna reserva a mi nombre y que Greca no ha avisado que yo iva a llegar ni nada por el estilo, eran las 04:30 de la mañana cuando desde la recepción del hotel me dejan pasar a una habitación por pura lastima, me dicen que pase a dormir y que por la mañana ya se resolvería algo. A la mañana siguiente al levantarme llamo a Greca y les cuento todo, una tal Lumila trabajadora de Greca me atiende la llamada, y al contarle todo ella misma se sorprendió prometiéndome que debían devolver mi dinero y que esa misma mañana vendría alguien al hotel para resolver el problema, pasa el día y sin yo saberlo nadie había ido o llamado al hotel, a la siguiente mañana sobre las 8 de la mañana me tocan la puerta para decirme que debo abandonar el hotel de inmediato o pagar 3 noches más, imaginen mi cara, llamo de nuevo a Greca y un tal Julián atiende pero como si nada, le explico el asunto y el problema pero nada excusas e historias y me dice que si que pague todo, le pido explicaciones de porque me han dejado tirado y que pasa con el dinero de más que ya había pagado por una nueva visa y traslado al hotel y me dice que lo siente pero que no es su problema, pido mi reembolso y nada, me dicen que me van a llamar y arreglar el problema y nada, para no tener problemas pago las noches que me pide el hotel con la esperanza de que Greca me lo devuelva después y nada, la pesadilla continua cuando llego al crucero y me dicen que tengo que pagar 90 euros de propina cuando también ya las había metido antes en el paquete, una vez en el crucero me entero también de que todas las excursiones y extras que había metido me las habían cobrado casi al doble del precio que las demás compañías de viaje como por ejemplo civitatis que si es una buena agencia de verdad y de fiar, al final me toco también pagar los 90 euros de propina o me quedaba en el agua, la pesadilla sigue cuando termina el crucero y regreso al Cairo de nuevo a otro hotel y de nuevo me dicen que no tengo reserva, de nuevo me toco la misma historia. Cuento aquí mi historia para que a nadie le pase lo que a mí, esta compañía es un fraude son unos irresponsables incompetentes que se desentienden de todo una vez han cogido el dinero, aparte de que todo por barato que se vea no es así al final acabas pagando más que con cualquier otro compañía que si sea auténtica y de fiar, desde El Cairo me dijeron y comentaron que no era la primera ni Segunda ni tercera vez que les pasaba esto con Greca y que ya estaban bastantes cansados artos y asqueados de esta mala irresponsable y fraudulenta compañía, si veis aún nombre por favor salgan corriendo o sigan buscando por otra pagina, yo he viajado mucho y nunca tubes problemas como los he tenido con esta falsa compañía, por favor si alguien sabe donde puedo denunciar esto déjenme saber pues a estafadores así hay que pararles los pies.
