There are many flights to Greece and her Islands all year round. It’s sometimes true that a package deal may be the most effective way of traveling, especially in the season, and checking for the latest Ceefax or Internet bargains can get you the best price. Try our recommendations on the Useful Links page. The Sunday papers (especially The Times) can have some very attractive deals available, so it’s worth shopping around – but don’t forget to let us have the details so that we can make sure you get the most from the trip. 

Our local representative know their areas of Greece intimately, whether it's Alonissos, Skiathos, Crete, Zakynthos or the Peloponnese so we do know what is good and what is less good – not just in terms of hotels but also in locations. In the season, some places are quiet and others lively – if you let us know what you prefer we can try to get just the right spot to stay, in an area close to where you are looking to purchase a Greek property. 

Let us know when you’re travailing and where you are staying, and we can set up local help and an itinerary. The simplest way is to use the form on the Greek “Contact Us” page.

Let us know if you require a car, we have negotiated attractive rates with several car hire companies in Alonissos, Crete, and the Peleponnese. Do test ANY car before you accept it – and make sure you are happy with it. The local approach can be a little radical when considering when some attention to a vehicle is due!

Most car hire firms provide a free map in English with the car. 

The trip needs to be viewed as a business trip, and you need some careful planning up front to make sure you get the best out of your time there. Not that there isn’t time to enjoy the sunny days and warm nights – just that a good itinerary will: 

               Make sure you see only property that is of interest

               Be planned to avoid unnecessary journeys, and covering ground twice

               Be set to the pace you dictate

               Be helpful and not aggressively sales based. 

We do all these things, and as an independent we don’t have to push you towards one particular place. It’s about us doing exactly what you want us to do, all part of the help we provide every step of the way. 

Our standard package includes our local, independent associates, who are not tied to anyone, and who can therefore access many of the developers and agents in there area. We also have looked at other developers ourselves, and can suggest three that would be particularly worth seeing. 

Rather than make all the calls yourself, you can choose from the suggested package above, adding or deleting as you please, and we will then set up the appointments you want on the days you specify. Working with our local associates does mean that they can control the pace of the days for you, and avoid “overkill”.  On my last visit one agent/developer I was checking out, kept me with him all day without a break – so it can be helpful to have the arrangements planned to make sure your day is not over-committed. 

A Word Of Warning

Over the last few years several new companies have set up building houses for foreigners (especially the British) with now real experience in the business. They have tried to become very price competitive by taking short cuts, using inferior quality materials and building very small properties. Most of them are also going through a huge learning curve that we went through 14 years ago.
