Highly Recommend - We had a wonderful time seeing all the sites in Athens. Our driver and our guide were both very knowledgeable and professional. They both took extra time and we did not feel rushed. The lunch break was at a great local restaurant. I highly recommend this tour.

A fantastic way to spend a day in Athens! - A fantastic day even with heat and jet-lag. The tour operator provided a very comfortable van for our group of seven which was always on time and available. Both the driver and the guide (hired through the operator) were knowledable, friendly, and flexible. We had a great day!

Fantastic private tours for two days in Athens - After lots of research, I chose Dora’s Walks for two days of private tours in Athens for our family of three. Our guide, Vasso, was fantastic. Trained as an archeologist, Vasso gave us insightful context for the history, architecture and culture of Greece in its Golden Age and beyond. We highly recommend this tour company!

Worth it. Book it! - Absolutely amazing tour with George as our driver and guide! My best friends and I had an incredible day exploring the beautiful sites of Athens and learning about its rich history. George went above and beyond by taking us to a local restaurant where we were spoiled with delicious food and drinks. All five of us had the time of our lives, and we highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Athens!

Athens Limo Best of the Best! - Our tour guide through Athens Limo was SPECTACULAR! The amount of training the tour guides must go through is extremely intensive and it showed. She was extremely well-versed in the history of ancient Athens, very professional, and very patient as we took hundreds and hundreds of pictures of the amazing views! We truly felt like we were her priority the entire day. And, her English was impeccable! If ever, we go back to Athens, we will most certainly retain the services of Athans Limo again for future tours!

Flexible through the most important sights of Athens - Arranging the pick-up location and time via email worked very well.
Our guide had a plan of what he wanted to show us and how we could do it all. It was as described in the advert.
We had additional requests. He fulfilled these too.
He showed us everything important in Athens and we had enough time to look at it and take photos.
And at the end, as a highlight, he showed us the Acropolis at sunset from the mountain opposite. Gigantic!

Great private tour of Athens - Our driver was very courteous and helpful and his vehicle very clean. Our guide hired by Athens was very knowledgeable and made the history interesting and did not try to push us too hard. We had a wonderful experience

They take care of details - Easy pick up at port. George our driver was professional and knowledgeable. He took us to hot spots in Athens and the shopping for sandals I requested. George assisted in making arrangements for our lunch. All was as advertised, was a perfect excursion. We were treated very nicely and our expectations fully met. Only hiccup was there was an extra fee for drop off at hotel at airport. The company did tell up front about fee but payment was expected in euros (cash)not charged to credit card so that misunderstanding of directions was unfortunate.
