Unique tour. Giannus was our driver and he was very knowledgable, a great driver and a really nice person. Was the perfect tour of beautiful Athens. Giannus recommended a local restaurant which was amazing. A fantastic day. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful tour in Athens with Alex our guide. He was very knowledgeable and fun.the kids enjoyed the tour.

The driver was great. The only negative was that once we arrived at the sites it was self directed With No tour guide

My wife and I had a wonderful day in Athens with Dimitri, our driver. We had one day to see as much of Athens as possible and we were able to make the most of it. Dimitri picked us up promptly at our cruise ship location at 8:30 am, loaded up our bags and we were off to a fabulous tour of Athens. Dimitri was extremely pleasant and friendly and provided us with a great deal of information about the history of Athens as he took us to see many of the sights that the city is famous for, but also some lesser known, but just as important, to include the Panathenaic Stadium and the Parliament Building (former King's Palace). We even got to witness the changing of the guard. He made several stops for photo opportunities along the way, which we much appreciated, and was always ready to take photos of the two of us. We had ample time to explore the Acropolis area when he dropped us off at the main entrance. Next we toured the Acropolis museum, then were off to hike up to the top of Mount Lycabettus, where we had a spectacular 360 degree view of Athens. As our tour came to an end, Dimitri delivered us to our hotel just in time to check in. It was a very full day, but completed in just 6 1/5 hours. We were able to do so much more in a short amount of time with a private driver because he was able to get us to places where buses were unable to get to, plus we had some flexibility with our itinerary. So much value for our $$. Highly recommend this tour and Dimitri, our driver and tour guide.

This was a fantastic tour particularly for those who have not been to Athens before and it is a great way to get to see as many points of interest as you can in one day. Dimitra was our guide and she was very skilled in her knowledge as well as very friendly. Toti was our driver and very knowledgeable and friendly herself as well as a very skilled driver going through the streets of Athens. We were happy to have them lead us through the city. We were able to see many more landmarks than we could have expected and the included lunch was amazing. The intimacy of having a private tour was also great as we didn’t feel rushed or crowded. Highly recommend!

This was one of the ports of call on our cruise itinerary that we were most looking forward to, and this tour exceeded our expectations! George, our tour guide, was fantastic. We traveled as a family of 6, so a private tour was a good option for us. He made sure that we made it to our attraction ticket times (such as for the Parthenon, Parthenon museum, etc.) and took us to as many places as possible with the amount of time we had. We saw so many sights, and George did a great job explaining all of the different stops and history of Athens. We definitely learned a lot on this tour, and will definitely recommend this to anyone who only has a day in Athens! Thank you, George!
