Aegean Odyssey is a Destination Management Company in Greece. We sell to the trade and never to your client. We take on the ground arrangements inside Greece and operate the programme you sell under your own brand.
Canada is a long-haul market, and a long-haul trip has to carry everything in one go. Most of what we are asked for from Canada combines the mainland with the islands — Athens and Delphi and Meteora, then the Aegean — which means domestic flights and ferries inside the programme, ticketed by us, with the coach waiting on the other side rather than a separate booking your client has to chase.
Programmes are tailor-made. Three are published here in full, day by day, and you are welcome to take one as it stands or tell us what to change: the length, the entry and exit points, the hotel category, the sites that cannot be dropped. What comes back is not a quotation, it is an operating plan — the hour the coach leaves, the town and category of each overnight, the guide, the entrances, the transfers.
