Perfect tour. We... - Perfect tour. We preferred to move at our own pace. The tour guide was amazing. Everything we wanted to get from a complete tour of Athens we got. I highly recommend!!! We only needed to book this one tour and I loved it. We were picked up promptly at 8am and went to Acropolis before the crowds arrived. I loved every moment.

Athens private tour - Our tour guide Stefano was absolutely amazing. He was so knowledgeable got us front of the line for all of the attractions. He went above and beyond sharing his stories of his country. We did not feel like we were with a stranger. We felt like we were with a friend, he took us to a local restaurant and had the most fantastic meal. I would recommend to anybody that wants to see Athens with Friend.

Great all day tour of Athens and Temple of Poseidon - Chris was exceptional driver & tour guide. Very nice and very accommodating to all we wanted to see and experience.
There were 9 of us so a private tour was way to go. Chris met & exceeded all our expectations.
Highly recommend Viator and Olive Travel (and Chris).

Must do! - Guide was amazing! Dimitri was informative timely and anticipated all our needs. Great locations efficiently navigated all sites. And even stopped at a local souvlaki stand and bought us a stick.

Awesome Private Tour! - What an awesome experience and so wonderfully organized! The best part was our driver, Babis, who was so kind and thoughtful, and very knowledgeable with preview information that we took with while visiting each site. If you book this tour, be sure to request for Babis as your driver.

Full Day Athens tour with Temple of Poseidon - Our tour guide Costantine (Cos) was great. He was very knowledgeable of the ruins of Athens and its history and being a local, he gave us a great tour and narrative of the area. Temple of Poseidon was a fantastic site with incredible views. Cos took us to a family owned Lunch spot and it was delicious and had a wonderful view. My family of 4 (Kids age 18 and 20) especially enjoyed the local dessert place ( they make their own milk) the ice cream and chocolate cake was great. We had a very hot day so the A/C private SUV was a huge plus for the entire day. Thank you again Cos.

Athens in a day - It was an amazing experience. This is a perfect tour if you want to experience all of Athens. Our driver and tour guide Stefanos Malatos was so kind professional and knowledgeable. He took us everywhere and provided important historical facts. The car was comfortable and air conditioned.

Not what we expected - Sadly this was not what we were expecting. The driver was very nice, but the tour did not really end up what I had thought. Partly lack of communication. I asked many questions but not really the right questions. We wanted to be able to go swimming and/or hang out at a beach for a little while but it ended up that was not possible if we wanted to get to the sunset on time. The dinner “on the beach” was very expensive. We ordered several things to try (which we have done in every restaurant), but this bill was almost twice as much as any other place. While the restaurant was technically “on the beach”, it had no view of the beach, there were cats everywhere walking around while we were eating, and things were a bit dirty (tablecloth especially). All- in-all, just not what we expected, especially for the price we paid.
