The company and the driver were exceptional. Billy, our driver was very helpful getting my wife, who has MS in and out of the van. He was willing to alter the route as we had seen some of the sites. He was very knowledgeable about the history and events about Greece. He made the tour a great experience. I would recommend Billy to those who are considering a 1/2 day tour or a full day.

Perfect for a half day tour of Athens

Manos was amazing! It was just the two of us (we expected a larger group with other tourists based on the maximum, so this was a nice surprise. He kept us informed and entertained throughout the trip. We were able to take our time at each stop without being rushed, especially since he knew how to avoid busier streets, and he gave ample time for pictures on the drive by locations. We'd highly recommend this to other travelers in Athens, and hope to find Tuk Tuk tours in other cities for future vacations.

Experience & a friend

This tour began well before I was picked up. The team were so helpful beforehand and even gave me the option to be picked up from my hotel (wasn't on the list) and helped me purchase tickets. The main event was my guide Menelaos. He was efficient, knowledgeable and made this solo adventurer feel like she was with her friend. This is one of the best tours I've done and we were able to fit so much in! Including a delicious lunch. Seeing such historical sites was one thing but getting the download from Menelaos made it feel more impactful instead of wandering with the crowds aimlessly. Highly recommend.

An Unforgettable Family Experience

Lydia was absolutely outstanding and made our tour of the Acropolis, the Parthenon, and the Acropolis Museum one of the highlights of our trip to Greece. She struck the perfect balance between Greek mythology, history, architecture, archaeology, and social history, making everything come alive without ever feeling overwhelming. Every minute was engaging, and it was clear how passionate and knowledgeable she is. What impressed us most was how well she connected with our entire family. The adults learned so much, but our kids were smiling, laughing, asking questions, and genuinely excited throughout the tour. Keeping children that engaged at such an iconic historical site is a true talent. She made this an unforgettable experience for our family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide.

Outstanding tour! Manos was wonderful as it was just the two of us on board. So grateful that he drove us up close and personal to the various sites including the steep hills. There is far too much walking if you do not do a tour like this to manage. We highly recommend seeing the various areas and sites across the city. We felt very safe and secure too!

Experience with just the right amount of Knowledge ! Lisa is the best !

Lisa was an absolutely wonderful guide for our Acropolis and Acropolis Museum tour. She was warm, kind, and incredibly patient, making the experience enjoyable for everyone in our group. She shared fascinating historical facts and stories at just the right pace—never overwhelming us with too much information, but highlighting the details that made the sites truly come alive. She was especially thoughtful with my mom, who walks slowly, making sure we never felt rushed and always keeping the group together. One of the things we appreciated most was that she took beautiful photos of our family throughout the tour without us even having to ask, allowing us to stay present and enjoy the experience. Lisa’s passion for Greek history was evident, and she answered every question with enthusiasm and knowledge. Thanks to her, our visit to the Acropolis and museum was memorable, educational, and one of the highlights of our trip to Athens. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, personable, and caring guide!
