Memorable trip to Greece.

This was our first time working with a travel agent. Maria communicated with us professionally and promptly through all aspects of planning the trip. We were extremely pleased with her choice of hotels and arrangement of transportation (ferry and taxi) in each location. We would highly recommend Maria and Wilcox Travel to anyone considering a trip to Europe and beyond!
