Our trip to Greece was memorable. Adventure Life arranged for a private driver and daily tour leaders who were knowledgeable and personable. The day we were supposed to return, Greece had a 24-hour strike. Elma handled all the transportation problems promptly. I love that Adventure Life has people with experience in different parts of the world, plus local contacts.
