Outstanding trip - highly recommended - The tour experience was wonderful! Our driver Peter had an incredible knowledge of the area that we were going and relationships with the people that we visited. We learned a lot from him - both about history and from his personal life experience with his family. The winery experience was a perfect end to the tour with delicious wine and an informative guide. I would absolutely recommend this to anybody who is looking to both experience the history of Greece and have a relaxing day.

Excellent driving, excellent tour guide, great tour! - Peter is the best tour guide we’ve ever had: filled with positive energy and historical knowledge. We learned so much from him about Ancient Greece and the Greece of today. He was prepared for the trip with a nice, comfortable vehicle, plenty of water, and local cookies. Palivou Wine was tasty & the Corinth canal and the Mycenae ruins were very interesting to see. Peter also let us out at each stop for us to explore vs tagging along with us, allowing us as much time at each site as we wanted, which I really like. But he did help take pictures for us, which was also very nice! Excellent driving, excellent tour guide, great tour!

The Modern and Ancient Peloponnese Heart! - There is so much to say! This tour was just Marvelous. Putting several famous locations in one day is no easy task - alongside a dinnner and fabulous winery experience!. But this is real and the tour was extremely well put together - Thanks to our incredible guide Yannis. It is well paced, and you get to the sites before the tour buses! A tour good for different kinds of travellers. Since we already did the corinth canal, our guide was kind enough to take us to the location of the only remaining pulley road for the boats. We really appreciated the effort!

Amazing! - We had a fantastic time on our day excursion! Our tour guide, Yannis, was very knowledgeable and friendly. He was very attentive to our needs, bringing us pasteries in the morning and water while we were walking the ancient sites. The winery and lunch were very nice, we all bought a bottle and the staff at the restaurant were fantastic. We had the whole Nymean site and arena to ourselves which was nice. Not crowded at all. Overall our favorite day so far on our vacation!

Great tour AWESOME guide! - Our tour guide, Manos, was incredible! He was very knowledgeable, met us right on time and gave us ample time at each location we visited to explore the ruins, take photos or enjoy the wine. We particularly liked they way he told the history or a story about the area we were about to get to so that we had some perspective going to each site. We absolutely recommend this trip for anyone interested in a brief history and tour of ancient Greece outside the immediate Athens area. The wine tasting made for a nice break during the day.

Canal, Mycenae and wine - Knowledgeable and friendly guide that really made the tour come to life. Full day experience with 5 stops, the longest being the ruins at Mycenae. Loved the sites at Nemea

Best Day Touring with Michael - We had such a wonderful time—Michael, our driver, was on time and was absolutely great. He made sure to check and review every next step and was thorough in making sure the tour met our expectations. We had the perfect amount of time at each destination and the wine tasting was so much fun! Micheal then suggested a lunch place that was tasty and had an incredible view of the Archaia Korinthos ruins. Thank you Michael for making this a fun and enjoyable tour, we will definitely reach out again to do another tour!

Worth every minute and penny! - Absolutely fantastic experience. Tas was very knowledgeable, accommodating and really worked to give us an appreciation for the Greek culture and people. It was a very special day for our family and I can’t imagine that anyone would not consider this tour a phenomenal addition to their trip.

Great tour and wine tasting from Athens to Nemea. - Terry was a great guide. He was very knowledgeable and flexible in adjusting the tour to my interests. He was punctual and kept me on schedule through a very busy day. I had a wonderful time much enhanced by his commentary and educational comments. I highly recommend him and this tour.
