Perfect day trip!! - This trip is worth it!! Our guide, Stathis, was awesome. He gave us a great history lesson, took us to all the right places at the right time. He recommended we purchase tickets to the Acropolis in advance. We did and he was right again. Long lines , crowds chaos. My wife and I just walked right in. You can find a trip for less but his knowledge, timing and professionalism cant be beat. OHHH and the meal they provided was fantastic.

Great value for the money - Sebastian was very knowledgeable about the history of Greece and even quizzed us to see what we knew. (Sadly, we didn’t have many answers) Because we had an afternoon tour we were treated to an amazing dinner with SO MUCH food at a restaurant that was off the beaten path ands just outside the city.

The perfect introduction to Athens - George was a fantastic guide, giving us tips and great information about the sights before we arrived. We enjoyed the delicious traditional meal and of course the wonderful sights. We were prepared with our tickets as guided and were armed with a set of places we could explore ourselves the next day also. It was great to be picked up from the airport and to be delivered safely to our accommodation- thanks for a brilliant day George.

Superb tour of Athens with an excellent guide. - The highlight was our excellent guide, Manos. He was knowledgeable, polite, well prepared and very impressive. He gave us a solid initial understanding of Athens, and he was able to answer all the historical, political, cultural and other questions that we asked. Manos was also very flexible in showing us the parts of the city that we wanted to see.

The Acropolis - Our private tour experience was simply the best starting with our tour guide and driver. Stathis is a wealth of knowledge in regard to Greek history and how the world today is still benefiting from the genius of men like Socrates and Plato. Stathis is a real thoughtful and kind person. We really appreciated him taking us to lunch at one of his favorite locations where the food and service was spectacular. We look forward to connecting with Stathis and this tour company when we return.

Delightful tour - We had a very nice day in Athens seeing all the highlights. Our guide Panos was wonderful and very polite. He was very knowledgeable and a very skilled driver in the busy streets. He gave us some flexibility in our tour and was very easy to communicate with where and when to meet him for each pick up spot. We also really enjoyed our meal. Overall a fantastic experience.
