About

We design and deliver private, bespoke tailored Trips, themed Tours & Activities


Solution & Product

We focus on Thematic Tourism & Tailor made Vacations in Greece. Having in mind the 3 pillars of our Mission (Bespoke Experiences, Breathtaking places, Authentic People) we create tailored Tours & Multi day Trips for our Travelers. OUR SERVICES: Themed Activities & Tours Archaeology, Food & Wine, Art, History, children-oriented activities are some of the themes of our private experiences. Personalized Itineraries Whether our Travelers visit us for a half-day Tour or a Multiday Trip we design from scratch a personalized itinerary customized to their specific needs and wishes. Some of our solutions include: Private services, authentic experiences with local guides, less populated destinations, collaboration with smaller & local operators with sustainability accreditations, focusing on fewer, higher value travelers, utilizing our team’s background in medicine & screening operators to the highest standards, connecting with locals, contributing to local economies


Innovation & Scalability

At Be A Greek we believe that innovation in the industry looks like: Personalization Total personalization is hard to deliver, so we have geared our entire model towards focusing solely on this, making it difficult for competitors to fully replicate. Flexibility Our small size, good understanding of the evolving and fast moving trends in travel post-covid & our personalized approach, means that we are not reliant on repeat booking discounts from the same tour or provider and can be more agile than most operators. Exclusivity Developing exclusive relationships with luxury travel operators specializing in personalization in markets outside of Greece. Brand Expansion Building a brand and a unique license model that can be replicated and scaled beyond Greece
