Recently got married in Cyprus and went through Olympic. From start to finish the process has been easy. The package they offered was competitive and didn’t require many upgrades. You could of easily got married without upgrading anything! My initial planning started with Vanessa who ensured all my details was passed on and kept up to date. During the 2 year period lots of changes were made and not a detail was missed. She was quick in her responses and made sure I knew if she was away from the business. On arrival to the hotel (which did not disappoint, Athena beach) I met Michelle who also works for Olympic. She knew exactly what I was looking for and had every detail correct. On the morning on the wedding she ran around putting it all together and kept us running on time. She signposted our day for us so we always knew where we should be and when. I gave her images of what I would like and she made it a reality. She was so kind, helpful and professional. Andrea’s at the hotel was so smiley, helpful and organised. Together they made my day perfect.

Just back from 2 weeks in Symi. Everything was exactly as described and taxis and ferry transfers worked a dream. Would not hesitate to book again with Olympic.

I would like to let you know what a gem you have in Joe (rep for Olympic Corfu holidays).She went above and beyond to help me with various issues- especially finding me a hotel (against all odds) on the evening of the IT crash and then tried finding out new flight details for myself during the night and then checked I had arrived back safely in the UK. Joe replied to texts immediately-even when my electricity and air con failed late at night- and solved the issue in a matter of minutes. Joe’s enthusiasm,professionalism and her clear love of her job shone through at all times and I will be forever grateful for her help and assistance during my stay in Corfu.

We have returned from a lovely holiday visiting Athens,Syros,Tinos and Andros. There were absolutely no problems with accommodation, Ferries and transfers. Everything on time and very well organised. We had some great meals too. The level of service is excellent this year and lots of smiling faces😃😃. Olympic always in touch throughout the 15 day trip but didn’t need them as so well organised !!

The experience was made great because of the rep Tara. Although the apartment we stayed in wasn't quite right for us ( no bodies fault, my wife has mobility issues) nevertheless Tara always responded to our questions. Above that, we were caught up in the flight cancellation ,Tara primarily but also her boss (sorry didn't catch her name) were the only ones to keep in contact even though we booked with Tui. I sit here waiting for a taxi on Monday from Friday with no communication with Tui. So my praise go's to Tara and Olympic for keeping us sane while waiting for our flight home. Than you Tara.

My partner and I have just returned home from a fantastic holiday to Corfu and Paxos. A big thank you to Sabrina who helped with the booking and Jo the local rep in Greece, they could not have been more helpful and friendly. I can highly recommend the Paxos Club Hotel and Nido Mar-Bella, both hotels absolutely fantastic with friendly staff and excellent facilities. Wouldn’t hesitate to use Olympic Holidays again in the future.

The whole experience from start to finish was amazing. Vanessa made everything so easy and made sure I had everything I wanted for my special day and stayed in touch all the way through, even after the wedding which is brilliant. We both had the best day and we can not thank everyone who helped us enough. Polly was also brilliant, she met up with us a few times before the wedding and made sure it all ran smoothly and also had a meeting with us afterwards, she made me feel at ease throughout and appreciate everything she did to make our day perfect! Lorraine the photographer was also brilliant and we love all of our photos and all of the hotel staff that made our stay ever better. Could not recommend Olympic holidays enough! We are so pleased :) Thankyou all for everything.

Fantastic holiday, Katelios is beautiful and our apartment was spotless, Hara is very helpful and hard working ensuring we had everything we needed. Our holiday rep, Les, was brilliant and nothing was too much trouble, even getting back us on his day off. We loved our holiday so much we booked for next year while we were there.

We have had several Olympic Holidays to Ithaca and have been delighted with the service provided. We have felt safe as we knew that Olympic reps would be on hand to sort out any problems that might arise. I highly recommend this company - we shall continue to book our holidays with them as we know how reliable, helpful and efficient they always are.

Our first time on the Greek Islands and our first experience of holiday transfers. Also our first time with Olympic Holidays and I have to say how impressed we both were with the whole holiday. Really great value for money. The holiday experience was totally enhanced in particular by 2 members of Olympic team. The first I never actually spoke to our travel agent did but he was the one who put together all our hotels and the ones he selected met our brief 100%. The second team member being Joe. From quite early on pre holiday to all the way through literally there in support whenever needed. Especially useful on transfer day dealing with delays so professional but also ensuring we arrived everywhere on time. Even outside office hours we didn’t have to wait long for replies. As first timers this level of support and dedication is appreciated rare and exemplary. Will we book again. Absolutely intend to in the future.

We were there for 3 weeks in total. This was our 4th stay at the Akis booking with Olympic. Flight was a little late but good. Transfer was around 1 hour as we were the last off but the bus was air conditioned so not too bad. The Akis is perfectly placed on the Salt Flats, within easy (although hot) walking distance of the village. Rooms are very clean & a decent size. Linen changes are frequent. Garden area is very attractive & there is a small childrens play area. Bar is fabulous with great food and service. Very friendly. The pool is large & is probably the best pool in Alykes. There is also a shallow childrens pool. Be aware..Climate Change tax/was Tourist tax is now €1.5 per night per room & aircon is 9€ per night, both payable in cash at resort. Quite hefty charges as an addition to the holiday cost but aircon is a must when there is a heat wave on that takes temperatures up into the high 30s! I believe there may be fans to rent for those who don't want to pay for aircon.
