VAtraveler2 Posted August 6, 2008 #1 Share Posted August 6, 2008 My husband and I are taking the Nov 5th cruise on the QV. We'll be disembarking in Athens. Has anyone had any experience booking private tours from the ship that drops off at the hotel in Athens. Cunard will only guarantee transfers if you book hotels through them. We'd like to use Starwood points for the hotel due to the high cost of hotels in Athens. Ellen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the transfer is all you want check it out. For a comprehensive tour with a guide and driver we used http://www.greecealacarte.gr/ and had an excellent guide and great service. Have a GREAT cruise!

Bowie MeMe Posted June 16, 2009 #4 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I just asked for a quote on a minivan for 4 pickup at 9 AM port and then do something in Athens with transfer to airport by 3PM. The cost was 400 Euros. This seems extremely expensive for 6 hours. Any idea of how we could handle the luggage and transfer a little cheaper?

Bowie MeMe Posted June 16, 2009 #5 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Has anyone ever had a day room in Athens. I have had them on some tours and they were a great pleasure before heading home late in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
