Wife & I are recovering from the Treasuries of the Aegean Completed Jul 9, 2022. Bottom line: great tour. It’s our 4th Tauck tour. The starting of the tour at hotel Grande Bretagne was first class. Hotel is owned by Marriott and the standards are hi. Tour Director Whitney understands the word logistics. Great job. Some of the local guides were difficult to understand using the voice boxes Tauck provides. All were very knowledgeable and polite. We were all tested for Covid at the hotel before we embarked onto the Windstar. One person was positive & stayed behind. On the subject of Covid another Tauck passenger came down with Covid and was quarantined to his cabin. I ended up with Covid after the trip. The Windstar, it’s Captain and crew are first class. Food, service was outstanding. Portions of the ship needs updating. The unfurling of the sails at 5pm everyday with music was delightful. Due to hi winds the ship could not get to Mykonos which was disappointing but no fault of anyone but think Tauck should pro-rate that day to passengers. I am waiting on a reply about proration. The most memorable event is the dinner in front of the Library at Ephesus with an orchestra of 5. Breathtaking. Other main sites are the Acropolis in Athens, Monastery and cave where Paul wrote Revelations. I highly recommend this tour. You will not be disappointed.
