HYDRA TRAVEL

Hydra Travel was founded in 1971 by Mr. Evangelos Stavropoulos and since then it follows a continuous and steady growth in every area of business and tourism travel. As a result, Hydra Travel has the ability to organize all travel and incentives arrangements, something that permits our customers to contact only one travel organization. Our highly qualified and experienced team can bring in life everything that our clients desire providing the best terms for the organization of every event.

Most of our people have grown with the company and their dedication and loyalty have helped to make Hydra Travel what it is today. The carefully selected hiring of young, dynamic and knowledgeable personnel as well as their continuous education through seminars and courses make our people our main competitive advantage. A selected number of self-employed professional qualified guides, interpreters, drivers and other staff are always available when needed.

Mr. Evangelos Stavropoulos, owner and managing director, carefully monitors all our departments and lead the company focusing only in the satisfaction of our customers. From the beginning this was, and still is, our main focus and this is the reason why quality is the main force behind our activities. A number of associates in the most important marine, commercial and tourism centres around the world constitute Hydra Travel as one of the biggest Greek travel organizations. This is also reflected in our certifications from the biggest international organizations (IATA, HATTA, PETAGA, HAAR etc) and in the various worldwide awards we received during the last years. In 2008 we were awarded with the "1st International Award for Prestige and Quality" by the Spanish publication house Actualidad during a special ceremony that took place in Athens. Moreover during the Philoxenia Exhibition 2008 that took place in Thessaloniki we were awarded with the award for the "Best Greek Travel Brochure" by HATTA.
