Awesome visit to Cape Sounion! - My daughter and I selected this tour after an experience the previous day with Athens Limo Tours. I am so glad we booked this! Dionisis organized an incredible trip for us to Cape Sounion with only a day’s notice on Greece’s national Independence Day. I couldn’t be more happy with the service we received from Michael, our driver, throughout the day. Michael was waiting for us outside our hotel at the appointed time. The trip to Cape Sounion took about an hour and a half. On the way there, Michael pointed out all the significant landmarks as well as some very interesting details on the area and its history. We stopped at two scenic locations for pictures and an overview of the area. Michael also went into the mythology pertinent to where we were, which my daughter thoroughly enjoyed. Once we arrived, Michael showed us the places to go for the best pictures and viewpoints. It was simply incredible. On the way back to Athens, we stopped to eat at a village seafood restaurant. It was extremely busy, but Michael was able to get us seated right away. The food was excellent! On the trip back, Michael engaged in conversation and answered questions readily. I couldn’t ask for more. It was a truly incredible, memorable experience!

Fantastic service! Thank you! - Dionisis was a consummate professional start to finish, had good suggestions on how best to organize our day wrt the places we wanted to see and the timing of it all. And the fish tavern he suggested for a late lunch was amazing... can’t go wrong with Athens Limo!

Excellent service. - Our group spent 5 full days in Athens. With Aris we went to Sounion Half Day Tour (for sunset). Well educated, well spoken, and humorous, our foursome enjoyed his guidance and the sites he drove us to. Everything was great, a lot of information.
