Better Than a History Book - Our guide, Andreas, was on top of things before the tour started. He contacted us and responded to more than several questions about timing, special requests, pick up, etc. He planned the day so that we were able to see the “Changing of the Guard” at the tomb of Greece’s Unknown Soldier. In addition he had great insight into the democratic historical heritage in Sthens.

Amazing day trip to Athens - Spyros was outstanding! - This was a Half day trip. Spyros our guide collected us from Athens airport at 11am and we were taken straight to the acropolis/parthenon. Then on to the temple of Zeus, Olympic stadium, changing of the guard, plaka, and finally Lycabettus hill. We then had an amazing dinner at a traditional taverna which was divine! Spyros was so lovely and knowledgable. Really put us at ease. He was amazing with my 12 year old son. We were also able to negotiate with him and the company to extend the tour by two hours so we didn’t have to return to the airport earlier than necessary. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Worthwhile! - Spiros was fantastic!!!? My friend and I aren’t very mobile and he took that into account. We saw everything we wanted to see and were treated like princesses with complimentary coffees and pretzels, water and a wealth of knowledge!! Highly recommended!

Good Tour, Interesting Sites, Poor Communication - Pros: Our driver was very nice, and seemed quite knowledgeable about the places we visited. The van was comfortable and air conditioned. Cons: Tour started an hour late so we missed the sunset. Driver didn't speak loud enough so everyone could hear him. Bottled water was not offered. The souvenir gift was not provided which disappointed our kids. Tour company did not respond to chat requests.
