Top Athens Bus Tours - page 10

very friendly and professional. Vana was our warm friend in 2 minutes and we enjoyed seeing in about 2 hours most important attractions in Athens. we love Segway tours and this time was one of the best. to whom that feel like afraid from driving a Segway - i am 68 years old and drove it like i was born with.

Our family had a fantastic time on our private tour of the Acropolis of Athens. We would absolutely recommend booking the private tour—it made the entire experience seamless and so much more enjoyable. The van was very clean and comfortable, and our driver was excellent, making it easy for us to move around the city without any stress. Our guide, Lydia, was truly outstanding. She is an archaeologist who speaks perfect English and explained every site in a thorough and engaging way that really brought the history to life. Lydia also managed the timing of the tour perfectly so we could catch the changing of the guards at the Hellenic Parliament Building, which was such a memorable experience. Honestly, we would never have been able to accomplish even half of what we saw and learned without her help and expertise. Lydia is, without a doubt, the best tour guide we’ve had in all of our European travels. We are so grateful for such an incredible and unforgettable day in Athens.

Amazing guide! Very helpful and kind, while still being very informative and answering any questions that we had. I loved this option much more as a solo traveler than taking one of the buses going to the same place. This was the perfect way for me to talk to people and enjoy my day trip. The smaller group was fun and intimate without being weird or awkward. Great day!!

This was an excellent tour. Our guide was Ermes who had a very good knowledge of Ancient Greek history- the information was about right- neither too less, nor too much. Ermes was friendly and courteous , plus very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommended this tour to anyone who visits tge Acropolis and the ancient Agora

The excursion to Delphi was fantastic. Maryanna our tour guide was wonderful, she made us feel very welcome and at home. My boys 8 and 11 enjoyed the experience seeing in person our rich history. We had wonderful weather being January, being over 6 months pregnant i was worried about walking up the steps at the site but I had no issues at all. id recommend good runners/sneakers as it was slipery coming down the steps. We took so many beautiful pictures and had time to purchase momentos from all the stops along the way. The bus ride was really long (a bit too long for my boys) my 8 year old got a bit of motion sickness coming home, Maryanna gave out lots of intresting information that made the bus trip go faster. We chose not to have the included set lunch due to allergies but joined in the restaurant and purchased safe foods that brought me right back to my childhood. Food was traditional authentic and delicious 100% recommend. The little town we visited on the way was beautiful and the views we saw were just stunning. When we return to Greece in the future we will be joining in on other tours offered by key tours.

We had an absolutely fantastic bike tour in Athens with Sterios — truly one of the highlights of our trip. From the very beginning, Sterios was friendly, respectful, and genuinely funny, and we clicked with him instantly. He has an impressive depth of knowledge about Athens and its sights, but what really stood out was how naturally he shared it — engaging, relaxed, and never overwhelming. As our first tour guide in Athens, he honestly set the bar very high. It had rained the night before, and Sterios thoughtfully adjusted the route to avoid muddy or slippery paths, which we really appreciated. That kind of situational awareness and care made us feel completely comfortable and well looked after throughout the tour. He also took the time to recommend excellent bars and restaurants around the city. We didn’t manage to try all of them during our stay, but the ones we did visit were spot on — fantastic recommendations that we’re still talking about. This was our first “touristy” bike ride, and we loved it far more than we expected. The time flew by without us even noticing, and we still think back on how much fun we had. Sterios truly elevated the entire experience and made it memorable in the best possible way. Highly, highly recommended.

I ate breakfast before the 9:30 tour- big mistake!! I couldn’t enjoy all the food they gave us, which included large sesame pretzel type thing, charcuterie with three kinds of homemade sliced meat, feta cheese and a delicious cheddar type cheese, wine and raki, fresh grapes (the best ever- so sweet and fresh they popped when you bit them, a beef sandwich called a slovakia or something like that, and lastly a fried dough covered with honey and cinnamon. We had to walk to each place, so went through many different neighborhoods. Besides these two places, we went to a honey and olive oil tasting and a tasting for Greek liqueurs. In the honey and olive oil place, I bought some honey/based creams. Our guide Micki (Nicki?) spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable and nice. Our group of 8 got along very well. Lots of exercise and good food! It exceeded my expectations

This experience is like three tours in one! We had a fantastic day with a very knowledgable guide. The first part was a walking tour through the city, then we met up with more people before heading up to the hill to the ruins and ended our day with a tour of the Acropolis museum (which was only the two of us with our guide). I highly recommend going to the museum to get a better understanding of what you see at the ruins site. Tina walked us through the museum and did an excellent job of making the connections between what we had just seen throughout the ruins and the museum exhibits. We greatly appreciated that we were not rushed and that our guide spent extra time with us to make sure we saw everything. Tina's pride in her country, as well as, her love of history and mythology was evident throughout the entire day.
