Ask for Bill - I'm so happy I booked this tour back In August for my cruise Excursion.Bill was amazing and you can tell he loves what he is doing. He talks with passion about his city. He is very professional and would highly recommend him. He even made sure we stopped on the way back to get a soccer jersey for my son, which made him so happy. Reviews are legit :)

Athens at Night—-stunning views and excellent experience - After an early afternoon arrival and a short nap at our hotel, a 4 hour night tour was a perfect way for us to explore Athens! Nasos picked us up from our hotel, provided a great introduction to the city, showed us the beauty of Athens at night and recommended a delicious family restaurant for a late evening meal. Witnessing the changing of the guard, experiencing the 1896 Olympic stadium at night, viewing the historical Acropolis glowing against the night sky and without daytime crowds was magical. Unforgettable experience! Nasos was knowledgeable and personable. Highly recommend.

Athens Full Day Private Tour - Our guide Aristotle is a native Athenian who was born and grew up in Athens. He introduced Athens in his true Athenian perspectives. He picked us up from our hotel and drove us to Athens Acropolis, ruins of birth of democracy, Roman ruins and a museum, temple of Zeus, the first modern Olympic stadium built in 1800's, Athens University, the Greek Presidential Mansion & Parliament, and other points of interest. We also watched the Elite guards exchange ceremony at the Presidential Mansion. He explained the ceremony and its history to us as one of former elite guardmen at the Parliament himself. We couldn't ask for a better tour guide for Athens. He displayed true professionalism & friendship, and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour.

A memorable day at Sparta & Mystras .. a native guide makes a huge difference ( Mr. Nasos, simply the best ). - I have formerly thought the idea of visiting Sparta’s Archeologic monuments / Spartan present day whereabouts/ the local Museum also encompassing the HUGE & magnificent Byzantine legacy in Mystras was originally mine & somehow anew . No, it was definitely & fortunately not. My dear tour guide, Mr. Nasos ( another courageous and highly intelligent Spartan native, as King Leónidas) knew the best path to save my time, my money, my energies meanwhile achieving the most unforgettable experiences, most valuable knowledge, genuine souvenirs ( besides stunning pictures ) moreover, adding some new ingredients for my next & upcoming tours ( adventures). Not only was His idea of visiting the Mystras site going thru the reversed direction - from the end to the beginning - a simply genial strategy, but mr. Nasos also has given highlighting suggestions for lunch/ side -attractions/ amazing information regarding Greek Traditions/ mythology & current trends , not taking for granted his exceptional skills while driving thru Athens, by-passing the heavy traffic blocks at the city centre. For the time being, Mystras ‘ Palace & some highly relevant Spartan Archeologic sites ( Acropolis/ Theatre) are undergoing a challenging systematic restoration process - so they are not completely available for visiting. Hope the Gods will guide the craftsmen in-charge. We realize restorations are necessary, otherwise all this priceless patrimony will collapse one day . On the other hand, preserving the sites’ uniqueness & atemporal legacy is definitely a time & money - consuming puzzle. Thanks Mr. Nasos & the dear Greek forefathers for this unique & mesmerising day.

Great tour of Athens with Aristotle - We had a great tour of Athens with Aristotle. With limited time in Athens, we were very happy with the places Aristotle took us to. As a local, he knew how to get around traffic, where to take us to maximize our visit and even got us a table at his friend's restaurant for lunch. Aristotle was punctual, professional, and extremely knowledgable.
