You will recognise at least one of these
You stopped waiting
The trip kept not happening because somebody else could not get the dates off, or was saving for a kitchen, or went quiet when you sent the third message about it. At some point you worked out that the trip does not actually require them. That is usually the week people write to us.
You want it done properly, not cheaply
You have reached the age where a four hour connection and a hotel that photographs better than it sleeps are no longer an adventure. You would rather pay somebody who knows which ferry actually runs in October and put the afternoon into lunch.
You do not want a group
Not a coach, not a rainbow flag on a lanyard, not fourteen strangers and a schedule. Every trip we plan is yours alone, moving at whatever pace you set on the day.
What we actually do
You tell us roughly what you want and how long you have. We build the route, book the hotels, the ferries, the flights between islands and every transfer, and we put a guide with you on the days a guide is worth having and leave you alone on the days it is not.
Then we are on the end of a phone for the whole trip. Not a call centre. Us.
If you would rather read about the islands first, that is what our gay Greece guide is for. This page is about who is doing the booking.
The questions we get asked
No. Everything we plan is private and built around one person's trip, and we do not run departures you join.
If a group is what you want, there are good companies doing exactly that and we will happily say so. It is simply not what we are.
We do not add one ourselves. Some hotels price a room the same whether one or two people sleep in it and some do not, and we tell you which is which before you book.
What we will not do is quietly build the difference into the price and call it a solo rate.
Not remotely, and it is worth saying plainly that nobody in Greece will find it notable. Solo travellers are ordinary here, at every age.
Dinner alone at a taverna is a completely normal thing to be doing, and you will not be seated by the kitchen for it.
No. Every supplier we put you with is one we have used ourselves, and we do not send anybody to a property we would not be comfortable in.
That is the practical value of a gay-owned agency doing the booking rather than a filter on a website.
You call us and we deal with it, in Greek, with the person who can actually change it. We are in the same country and usually within a few hours of you.
This is the single biggest difference between us and a company handling your trip from another time zone.
Tell us when you are free
A rough month and a rough number of days is enough to start. You do not need a plan, that is the part we do.
