Unforgettable tour and sightseeing in Athens - We were very fortunate to have Manos as our driver and tour guide for 4 hours of sightseeing on our last day in Athens. He was very knowledgeable and personable and especially agreeable to our requests. His suggestions all turned out to be perfect and we greatly enjoyed everything, from the National Library and Cultural Center, to the Flisvos marina, Temple of Poseidon, and delicious seaside lunch. We highly recommend Welcome Pickups- and particularly Manos-to enhance your Athens experience!

Incredible way to see Athens in a short time - Our driver was excellent & made sure we saw everything on our list & so much more. He made sure we did not feel rushed when we would be dropped off to visit a site. He also helped by giving us recommendations on where to eat during our stay in Athens.

Excellent experience and unforgettable day - We had a great half-day tour to Poseidon Temple near Athens. Driver Ilias Kanteres very polite and with a lot of knowledge regarding Greek ancient culture was a very pleasant host. He drove us to the best places and finally to a very good fish restaurant clode to the see. It was an unforgettable day and I recommend to all the persons who want to try this nice experience.

Sightseeing in Athens with our driver Ilias Kanteres - We had a wonderful day that we spent with our driver, Ilias Kanteres, as he has shown us some spectecular spots around Athens like Marathon and Piraeus. He was a nice company to have especially because he was so caring and respectful. The tour he planned was just perfect for us. He even gave us special tips concerning food and restaurants. I would definitely recommend him to anyone visiting Athens.

Brilliant tour if you have limited time - Our guide John was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. My mother has limited mobility and John took her for a coffee while my son and I climbed the Acropolis. He was happy to answer all our questions about the economy, education, politics and general living in Greece. John has great knowledge of the city and back streets which allowed him to navigate around backs street to avoid congestion caused by the protest. I highly recommend this tour. Thanks John!

Helpful friendly driver - We were very impressed with his tour - working his way around street closures due to parades and we saw more than we expected.

Half Day Tour - Half Day Tour was overall perfect. Our guide pucked us up.on time. He was courteous, knowledgeable and agreeable. We had already toured the major sights and we wanted to see others that were off the regular list. The only dissapointment was the food tasting. We only tasted olive oil and the person who did it was quite obnoxious. It was not enjoyable. But, this was not thr guide's fault. It was the company's fault I would use them again but make sure to clarify the food tour.

Not 100% cancellable! - I actually haven't gone on my trip yet but I did book the transfers to and from my hotel to the airport. Be careful booking because even though it says you'll get a refund if you cancel more than 24 hours before you are scheduled to go... you only receive 80% of what you paid. I was canceling because we decided to do one of there sight seeing trips instead. So you can cancel... then get a coupon for the full amount you paid. It has been over 3 hours and I still haven't received the coupon and now I am very uncertain if I should book the site seeing tour. I actually didn't do this tour yet... just had a wlcome pickup scheduled. The review wouldn't let me

Horrible Tour with Nikolaos - Nikolaos was our guide and he was terrible. We paid for a wheelchair accessible tour which was booked to Welcome Pickups through Get Your Guide. The vehicle was not what we requested. It was a station wagon. The tour guide left us on the streets in a wheelchair somewhere in Athens and lied about the streets being blocked because of a fire and said he had to get to the airport. Taxi drivers in Athens do not like to pick up people in wheelchairs so we couldn't get anyone to get us home. A nice person in a restaurant had to beg a taxi driver to take us home. I do not recommend this company. They treat the handicapped horribly.
