I am half-Greek, half-French, born and raised in Athens. A true foodie at heart, I’ve discovered the best dining spots in every corner of Greece, which I can’t wait to share with you! I’m a huge pet lover, and I like spending my free time listening to music, which has been my true passion for decades. I also have a soft spot for collecting sneakers:). I love long walks and bicycle rides, especially with Greece’s weather being almost always perfect for this kind of outdoor activities. Whether it’s exploring new food spots or enjoying the Mediterranean breeze, I always seek new adventures to make the most of life.

What travellers says about local travel agents

“From my first conversation with Effie, to my last (of many whats app texts with Maria, Christos and Mairi). I can not say enough about Rough Guides, the tours, drivers, plans etc. We can not recommend this company enough, and will use again any time we travel internationally! It was the best decision of our trip!”
Avigail R.
“Our trip to Greece (Naxos, Santorini, and Crete) exceeded our expectations! Our local travel experts Julia and Yulia were wonderful. She was super responsive, helped us plan a wonderful trip, and helped when last minute changes came up (missed flight, changed tour start time etc...). All of the accommodations that were booked for us were beautiful and the tours/tour guides were informative, friendly, and engaging. We would definitely book through Rough Guides again, and would highly recommend the tour agency.”
Carol G.
“Yulia at Somewhere We Know helped us plan the trip of our dreams. From our first contact to our last she was always helpful and listened to our ideas. She let us know in a timely manner of any changes to our itinerary. I highly recommend Yulia and Somewhere We Know to anyone traveling to Greece!”
Shanthini N.
“Antonis, our agent, was terrific; every moment was perfectly planned. Our driver, Marios was well informed, thoughtful and responded to unplanned events like a major strike across Greece on our first day with aplomb. We had a really great trip, which Antonis spent time personalising to our tastes, interests and budget. Couldn't ask for a better experience”

24/10/2024“The trip was organized perfectly and I had a wonderful time. My guide managed a couple of changes that occurred along the way including a different hotel on Heraklion and a cancelled tour. The hotels were really good. The one on Naxos was literally feet from an amazing beach. ”
Bonnie
26/09/2024“Thank you for your work. We had a marvelous time. The Artist in Athens, on our last night gave us an upgrade! What a nice surprise. I loved Greece. It was like a postcard. A few things that caught my attention. Many of our scheduled tours left before our hotels had breakfast. We missed out on a few. Our drop off and pick up in Chaina was on the main street. A small walk but one we did not expect. the video showed our pickup to be in the front of the hotel so a bit confusing. Our guide for the Balos Lagoon got off of the bus early and we had no idea when to get off. In Santorini we expected a bigger room based on the itinerary but was given a very small room. None of these things were major but thought you might want to know. Everything really went off without a hitch. thank you again.”
Thomas B.
“Somewhere We Know helped me plan the perfect vacation for Greece. The hotel recommendations were all excellent and unique with exceptional customer service accommodating every request, while at same providing a very special local vibe. The tours all exceeded our expectations with top of the class tour guides. Julia at Somewhere We Know, fully understood what we were looking for and recommended the best tours at each of our stops. These tours guides all ha something in common, their expertise and love for their Greek Culture and History. Finally, the arrangements made for the airport inter-island transfers were seamless. Always on time (or earlier) with all info provided in a handy app. I must admit I was a little hesitant in using a travel agency off the internet, but rest assured this was the best decision I made, for the priceless memories and experience we had i Greece.”
Emilie A.
“Yulia from Somewhere We Know planned a truly amazing graduation trip for our family. She was thoughtful, friendly, and organized. She gave great insights, provided really exceptional lodging options, and coordinated our entire trip seamlessly. Anytime I had a question or concern, Yulia responded quickly and provided me with detailed information. The process of working with RoughGuides was actually pretty simple, and I will be using them again in the future for planning another vacation. As for beautiful Greece, we will definitely be back, and will be using Yulia at Somewhere We Know again for all our Greek adventure needs!”
Howard L.
“Our week in Athens and Crete last week could not have gone more perfectly. I usually enjoy planning my family travels. I feel like beginning the planning is like starting the trip. With a very limited time period and the wanting to accommodate the needs of teenaged grandchildren and grandparents in our eighties, I felt there was no room for error. Working closely with Julia produced an exciting, comprehensive experience none of us will ever forget. Our expectations and needs were fulfilled, under the guidance of Julia’s patient, kind expertise.”
Shannon
29/10/2024“My travel guide was very detailed and thorough. Scheduled tours were all outstanding and very informative! Hotel breakfasts were hit or miss. Our first hotel provided hot dog buns as the breakfast bread option. ”
Scott
30/09/2024“We had a wonderful two weeks in Greece. All the hotels and tours were lovely and all connections went smoothly. We had only one issue with an auto rental company not showing up to meet us the night our ferry arrived in Crete. Julia, our local contact, promptly got us a room in a nearby 4 star hotel and arranged for a car the next morning. Kudos!”
Stephen
29/09/2024“This was the first time we had used a holiday planning and booking company and we were initially a little unsure but ultimately hugely impressed. Julia - from Somewhere We Know in Athens, came up with a really interesting proposal. She responded speedily and positively to our suggestions and changes to come up with a holiday that we were happy with in terms of schedule, activities and price. All of the hotels she recommended were great, especially the Mazarakis guesthouse in Sparta. Her suggested places to visit and things to do were also also all great. She responded sensibly to practical questions, such as whether it was better to collect our hire car from central Athens or the airport, and then organised the collection and drop off to suit us. The information pack was really helpful and user friendly, especially because we were able to download it onto an app and then click through for travel directions and for contacting hotels, guides etc. What we particularly valued was the personal guides she selected for our tours around the Acropolis (Elana), Delphi (Penny), Olympia (Elena number 2) and Epidaurus (Thodoris), who were all great in their different ways. She was in contact throughout the trip, so that we knew that we could contact her if we had any problems. All in all, very highly recommended.”
