Most tour operators are encouraging prospective clients to book their holiday on-line to save costs. We are the complete opposite! We believe that speaking to someone with personal knowledge of both destination and accommodation will always be preferable to trying to decipher text on a computer screen. Unlike most other tour operators, when you telephone us you will not be greeted by an automated voice. Likewise, the frustrating experience of having to negotiate the maze of selecting umpteen options before you speak to a human being is not something that we will put you through. Whether you are requesting a brochure or checking availability of a holiday, you will speak directly to one of our experienced sales personnel immediately. In fact, this personal contact applies from the moment you make the initial holiday enquiry through to the moment you return from holiday.
Not all Greek islands are the same. We are quite unequivocal. If you want to live it up on a cheap holiday, we are the wrong company for you. Many years ago, we positively chose not to feature the mass-market destinations favoured by the British in Greece, and it is these destinations that are cheap. Conversely, if you dream of that unspoilt, deserted beach and have particular holiday requirements that would seem to fit in with our ethos, then pick up the telephone and talk to us. In the main, we have selected some of the least spoilt islands in Greece.
Oceanways Travel Services Ltd. trading as Greek Sun Holidays holds an Air Travel Organisers Licence (ATOL) No. 0011. This was the eleventh licence ever issued and there is no other company with a current, valid licence number lower than our own! This licence means that we are fully bonded and that your money is safe. You are thus assured of complete financial protection. We are also full members of ABTA (No. V219X).
It is only natural to be wary of booking a holiday with a small family- run tour operator like ourselves. The millions of pounds spent on marketing by large tour operators will always create the impression that they have the edge over the minnows. However, we have survived longer, 53 years to be precise, than many large companies including household names, in their time, like Clarksons, Budget, Excel & Intasun. The level of repeat business that we achieve and the number of personal recommendations that lead to bookings for us mean that we have no need to advertise other than through our website.
