Reviews of Visions Holiday Group
As Greek as you can get
We chose an island hopping holiday but islands of our choosing and not a pre conceived package. The arrangements and bookings were all done for us without any qualms and we had an amazing time travelling to our 3 different islands on ferries and picked up by taxi, taken to hotels all arranged by our tour operator.

Rating for tour operator:Alan Garner at Visions Holiday Group is wonderful. He is always friendly, a pleasure to speak to, happy to discuss matters with you, polite and his expertise knows no bounds. Nothing is too much trouble for him and we book and go on holiday with great confidence that everything will be alright. When things do go slightly awry, i.e. the weather, Alan and his team are always there to sort things out and rearrange if necessary.
Could not have been more perfect
Our Athens and 3 island holiday was perfect. From initial booking with islands of Greece to the company keeping us informed of a couple of changes while we were away I cannot fault in any way. We will certainly book again. Hotels were great

Wonderful Holiday
A massive thank you for organising our client's wonderful holiday! Clients Feedback: Everything ran just like clockwork, the flights, transfers and ferry were all bang on time so no stress whatsoever. There are far too many highlights to list, the Hotel in Naxos was ideally situated for the beach, bars and restaurants and for walking into the town for sightseeing. We also did a coach tour of the island with a guide which gave us an excellent ...
A massive thank you for organising our client's wonderful holiday! Clients Feedback: Everything ran just like clockwork, the flights, transfers and ferry were all bang on time so no stress whatsoever. There are far too many highlights to list, the Hotel in Naxos was ideally situated for the beach, bars and restaurants and for walking into the town for sightseeing. We also did a coach tour of the island with a guide which gave us an excellent insight into its history and culture. All I can say about the hotel in Santorini is that it is a little piece of heaven. The views of the sunsets from the outdoor restaurant and pool area are breath-taking. The view of the bay from our room and pool area again were breath-taking, we really didn’t want to leave, it definitely won’t be the only visit to Greece.
Rating for tour operator:Zoe attention to detail and recommendations were spot on. I loved working with Islands of Greece (Visions Holiday Group) for this booking
Best holiday ever - according to my wife!
We visited Trapezaki in Kefalonia. We rented a two bedroomed villa, part of a small development of eight or nine properties, it was very quiet and very private, the villas did not overlook each other. We could walk to a few (very good) places to eat, but car hire is recommended, especially as Kefalonia is a reasonable size and a fun place to explore, driving felt very safe, a few nutty taxis - but where don't you get them! Late September is ...

Late September is perfect, quiet but temperature still high 20s at least, if you travel much later you have to expect some bars and restaurants to be closing as autumn gets closer.
Rating for tour operator:Islands of Greece, Visions Group were excellent (again) they simply listen to what you want, find it and make all the arrangements. The next question about how likely is it that you would recommend to a friend - we already have done!
At Islands of Greece, we all love the island of Kefalonia too. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Thank you very much for travelling with us once again. We look forward to the next trip!
Thanks to Grant at Visions of Africa we had the most amazing trip to South Africa
We flew into Port Elizabeth , picked up our hire car and drove out to Shamwari for 3 nights. We then did The Garden Route stopping at the amazing Tsala Treetops in Plettenburg Bay, Views in Wilderness, Whale Rock In Hermanus where we were so lucky to see whales from the shore, then onto Cape Town for 3 nights.

Rating for tour operator:From start to finish our trip was perfect, the only dissapointment was having to come home. Grant planned the perfect itinerary for us starting with a safari at Shamwari and ending in Cape Town. Everything was organised for us including special meals out & excursions. I cannot recommend Grant enough, we will most defintely need to return to see what else South Africa has to offer.
Excellent Bespoke Customer Service
My partner & I have just returned from our trip to Koufonisia and Iraklia. The recommendations suggested by Visions holiday for both these islands, based on our initial holiday criteria was absolutely excellent. We loved them both and it felt as though we had been transported back in time to the wonderful authentic Greek Islands of days gone by. All the accommodation was first class and certainly came up to our expectations. It was exactly ...
My partner & I have just returned from our trip to Koufonisia and Iraklia. The recommendations suggested by Visions holiday for both these islands, based on our initial holiday criteria was absolutely excellent. We loved them both and it felt as though we had been transported back in time to the wonderful authentic Greek Islands of days gone by. All the accommodation was first class and certainly came up to our expectations. It was exactly what we wanted and we would give all the hotels a five star rating. The transfers between flights & ferries were all arranged for us and made our transitions seamless. Alan, the travel agent at Visions Holiday group even provided his own personal tips and advice having previously visited these islands himself. This was exceptionally helpfully and added extra value & enjoyment to our travels. We have already recommended Visions travel company to several people and will most definitely be coming back to book up for a similar island hopping holiday again next year. The booking process and bespoke attention to detail by Visions Travel made sure that we had a wonderful holiday. We would thoroughly recommend this company.

Crystal Waters Lefkada (Visions Islands of Greece)
The service that we received from Visions Holidays Group (Islands of Greece) was exemplary. Every element of the organisation was faultless and the insider knowledge that Alan was able to provide added to our positive experience. I cannot rate the booking process, organisation, location and support from the team more highly.

Thank you for your positive comments, I have passed them on to Alan and the team. We look forward to helping you with a trip again some time.
Greek Idyll
We had a week on Paros, followed by a week on Naxos, in two beautiful hotels. There were two connecting flights via Athens, plus a ferry transit to organise.

Rating for tour operator:Alan and the team at Islands of Greece were incredibly resourceful and helpful. They were impressively knowledgable about the flights, ferries, resorts, beaches, hotels. In short, all the important stuff. And all the small stuff too, like which shops and restaurants to go to. They couldn't have been more enthusiastic. I would certainly entrust them with planning my next holiday.
What great islands to combine.
Alan and the team at Islands of Greece are so pleased that you had a super holiday. We look forward to helping plan your next trip!
