Excellent dive with clear waters - The pick up was on time and our driver Harry was very informational and kind. Alexandra had everything we needed for a perfect dive. The water was so clear. We were able to see Urchin, fish and even a sea cucumber. Our lunch was authentic and fantastic. After lunch Harry even made a special stop to show us the changing of the guards. A must do tour.

Perfect excursion for our July 4th in Athens! - We had a great day checking off a bucket list item to scuba dive in the Aegean Sea! George picked us up from our hotel in Athens right on time and dropped us off at the location 30 minutes away! He was very personable and gave us a private tour all the way to the location. Vasilis was amazing during the dive. I panicked a little at the beginning and he was patient. He held my hand during the beginning of the dive until I was comfortable on my own. He kept checking on us the whole time. He knew my husband was comfortable and gave him the freedom he needed while sticking with me. It was a very relaxing afternoon, and I would do it again! George picked us up and took us to a very nice restaurant on our way back to the hotel we're I had a very nice salad and my husband had a scrumptious veal stroganoff. Excellent conversation and a very comfortable ride in a beautiful van. Highly recommend this tour!!!!

Top notch - I had a great day. Alexandra was a great dive guide and very patient. Nick took special care of us getting to lunch and the Parthenon with plenty of time to get back to our ship. Excellent service.

Amazing Experience - We came in by cruise ship and wanted to go diving but wanted to make sure we made it back in time. Even though we are experienced divers, diving one tank is still a great experience. The instructor (guide for us) Nikos was great and made it an easy dive. Our driver for transportation George was also amazing, he stayed with us the whole time and asked if there was anything we wanted. Gave us information/history about Athens. All around worth spending the money on it.

A Very Good Time - A very good experience; quick tip though, the wetsuit is hot as can be, so you'll want to mentally prepare yourself for the five whole minutes you'll be in it on land. This was my first time diving or using a wetsuit and hoo boy, was not expecting that. Stood in the sun for less than five minutes and it was rough. Totally worth it though; the water was clear, the instructors were accommodating, and overall it was a lot of fun.

Scuba Dive in Athens - Absolutely ! - My daughter and I juts finished our Open Water Certification and wanted to get into the water in Greece. I reached out to Ioannis about a different tour (Mycenae-Epidaurus-Nafplio do not miss that excursion) and I asked about diving in Athens and his response was "Sure - we can do that!" and yes - we did that. Ioannis arranged for everything with our DM, Vassilis and drove us out to the dive location, Vouliagmeni. We had masks, fins and our regulators, Vassilis supplied the BCs, weights and tanks and met us at the dive site. For new divers - Vassilis set up a great initial dive. We went off the shore, the water was clear, no substantive currents and plenty to see at 60 ft or less. To be clear - it is not like diving on a Caribbean reef or in Fiji or the Great Barrier Reef - but it is diving close to Athens - and that is super-cool. It really was a magical experience. We will never forget it. My only regret is that we did not have more time for more dives in Athens. We will fix that when we return. After the dive, Ioannis dropped my daughter and I off at a local restaurant with a gorgeous view of the area where we had one of the best meals of our trip. My daughter and I liked the food so much that we ordered second meals to go which we planned on having for dinner but my wife and nieces got to it before we could and asked "who got the great seafood and can we get some more"....
