Excellent tour we would do it again - This tour was a lot of fun. We enjoyed seeing the sites were Paul had been especially Corinth. The air conditioned car made things so much easier than places where we've tried to get there on our own. The driver Theodoro was very knowledgeable and helpful. All of us enjoyed this tour very much

Amazing visit to Athens / Corinth - We had such an amazing time while visiting Athens / Corinth. We had an amazing driver that shared a lot of information with us. He went way above and beyond, taking us to places that we didn't even realize that we were going to visit. He filled the whole time and was willing to do more than expected. I would highly recommend this tour / company to anyone visiting Athens. They communicated through email and our driver was there at Piraeus port when we got off the ship.

Perfect tour with an excellent company - This was the perfect tour for us to experience Athens in the short time we had post cruise. We arranged for pickup at the cruise terminal in Athens. Our driver was prompt and courteous throughout the day. The car was newer, clean and comfortable. We were able to experience all the highlights of Athens as well as see the ancient city of Corinth. We also arranged drop-off at our hotel at the end of the day. We are so glad we chose this tour and would highly recommend Athens Tours Greece.

Corinth and Athens tour - We took a private tour which was not too expensive. The driver was courteous and very informative. He changed the schedule to meet our requests and was able to make stops for drinks. The driver spoke English very well and was able to explain how culture was different in the various time periods. He took us to a local restaurant and made sure the staff treated us very well. The only negative was there was not enough time to see everything on the list of sites. We spent a lot of time in Corinth in the morning but could not see as many sites in Athens. Fortunately we had an extra day for us to visit places on our own.

So Much Fun!! An Easy Day - Panos was wonderful! On time, easy going, friendly, and very informative. I asked to stop at the Corinth Canal and bungee jump and he was so great! He took photos and cheered me on. The tour was fantastic and seeing where Paul began was wonderful. Athens was a fun and cool car ride.

Great Tour in the Footsteps of Apostle Paul with Christos out tour guide and driver - We made a last minute enquiry for a private tour of Athens and Corinth in the Footsteps of Apostle Paul and the the rep who looked into our enquiry, Asimina gave us a prompt and professional response assisting with all our enquiries and was also patient with us in deciding whether to proceed or not.
We are glad that we decided to proceed as our tour guide and "geography teacher 😊" Christos, made the tour a billion dollar more pleasant, with the level of knowledge and the tailor made itinerary we worked with. We couldn't have asked for more.
Thank you Christos! and thanks to the team at large.
Michael & Bisi.

Great Driver for the sights - I read many recommendations for renting a car and driving ourselves on excursions in Greece and I’m so glad that we did NOT do that! Having a local driver was essential for us. However, I did not realize that I needed to hire an additional guide if I wanted someone to educate me at each stop. Our driver was very nice, polite, and friendly. He did share some limited information at each stop, but we had to go online for the bulk of it. That being said, I’m very happy to have had a driver to navigate the area for us!

Really fun day - This was a very fun and informative day! Our tour guide picked us up at the Athens port, and we were off. We saw the major sites in Athens (Acropolis, Mars Hill, Parthenon, Diana’s temple, etc) with plenty of time to wander through each. Then we were off to Corinth - we saw the Corinth Canal and our driver told us the history of the canal. After that we hit ancient Corinth. First stop was Aquila and Pricilla’s homesite which is now home to a church, and then the the ancient city. They have a lot of ruins, and a really nice museum. After that we checked out the castle on the hill overlooking Corinth. It was a good, full day and well worth the price

Research before arrival. - Logistics of the PT Footsteps of Paul tour were well organized: hotel, transportation including air conditioned bus, cruise ship, and taxi to the airport. Less than 1/2 of the daily tour guides spoke openly about faith-only gave historical information. Of the two guides identifying as believers, one was well versed in, and taught helpful Biblical context and cultural insights. A vacationing pastor in the group fortunately filled in some gaps but relayed he “came to learn and not be the ‘expert’”. Considering 1% of the population of Greece are born again believers, it is understandable biblically educated tour guides must be a rarity, however, PT might want to provide written material for tour groups to compensate for the expectation of biblical context in addition to historical. Would recommend PT but suggest you do your biblical research prior to arrival.
