Tour Operator
The idea of Eskapas which means "Let's escape in Esperanto" , was born in 2000 to organize fully guided tours in Greece and Turkey for solo , couple and family travelers , to experience a genuine Mediterranean experience; a combination of ideas, feelings, imageries, cultures, ways of life cultivated for centuries in this “sea amongst lands” as a Mediterranean Specialist. Later, we expanded our operations to Italy, Spain and all around Mediterranean countries.
At Eskapas each employee is a natural-born traveler. That means we know every aspect of guided tours to organize all the details as it is a part of our DNA's.
Our tours are guaranteed departure. That means, there is no minimum number of bookings required on a trip for it to run. So, if you book an Eskapas trip that is a guaranteed departure, you’ll definitely be heading off on the trip of a lifetime.
