Great Tour - We took the 6 hour Athens tour with Andreas. He was very professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable of the city. He showed us all of the important main sites of Athens,including the area around the beach and coast. I would highly recommend him for your day tour.

Let a knowledgeable guide and driver take the wheel! - We were a group of ten, with our own mini-bus. Clean and comfortable. Our driver Frank made it the most wonderful experience for us. He was very flexible around what we wanted to see, and really knew his way around where we timed things just right (e.g. changing of the guard, Acropolis tickets). His restaurant recommendation for lunch was honestly a big food highlight of our whole 10-day Greek trip! Delicious authentic meal served in the most wonderful family-run place we'd been to.

Alex the Great - Our driver Alex brought history to life. He knew how to get around a busy town, where to park, where we should go for lunch, and went over and above by showing us historical photos of the famous sites we were seeing. He was knowledgeable, friendly, courteous, and spoke great English. He tailored our tour to our families, specific needs and interests.

Athens in a Day! - Andreas picked us and dropped us off very close to the boat. He dropped us off at the Acropolis so we could explore it on our own. We were able to walk around several other sites including the Temple of Zeus, took pictures in front of the Olympic Stadium and walked up Lycabettus hill to overlook Athens. (Prior to leaving home, we purchased combo tickets to get us into the Archaeological Sites - saved us a lot of time waiting in line) It was amazing! We only had 6 hours in Athens, but he definitely made us want to go back!!
