Roberto_D, Apr 2026

Tour Guide was good!

Our ship arrived late. But Greco tours accommodated us. The start was challenging but the tour guide made it all up! She was so nice… accommodating and always smiling. She was knowledgeable and her tips on making the walking tour were very helpful! This is definitely worth the price! Get it!

Excellent tour

This trip was amazing! Our guide was terrific and so knowledgeable. She provided great details on our ride to the museum. Our guide in the museum was also excellent! We had a beautiful and delicious lunch in the town after our tour and dropped back off at our hotel. Our driver did a great job navigating the easter traffic when returning to Athens in the evening.

Athens Greece Full Day private tour

Sugosh_V, Apr 2026

Highly recommend this...

Highly recommend this Viator tour if you want to see the best of Athens in a day. It’s a busy itinerary, so be prepared for a full day of exploring, but our guide was excellent and kept us engaged throughout. Traveling in April was a great call; the crowds were manageable and the temperature was just right

From Athens: Small-Group Delphi, Museum & Arachova Day Trip

LeeAnn_D, Apr 2026

Delphi was amazing!

This is a great budget option for folks who want extra time at the archeological site and prefer to roam on their own, instead of being tethered to a tour group. The driver provided interesting facts on the ride up. Arachova was picturesque and a good option for lunch, but little else. We ran into traffic on the return trip and our driver did his best to avoid traffic.

Friendly service and beautiful destination!

A great trip! Manos was so friendly and informative, and gave us great tips en route to Lindos, which was such a beautiful destination. Easy pick-up, smooth drive, friendly service, great weather, and wonderful locations - couldn't ask for anything more!

Full-Day Trip to Meteora from Thessaloniki

Jeanette_S, Feb 2026

Why an amazing trip!...

Why an amazing trip! Eleni, the guide, was great. Super knowledgeable & kind from the moment we got on the bus, all the way to Meteora and back! Bus was very comfortable! So comfortable I took a couple naps! The views in Meteora were incredible. I was a little worried about the walking but wasn’t an issue at all. So many great photo stops!! Can’t recommend this tour enough. The price was a steal. Lunch provided an opportunity for traditional Greek cuisine and was super tasty.

Mycenae, Epidaurus, Nafplio Full Day Private Tour from Athens

Janice_M, Oct 2025

Fantastic day spent with our driver/guide, Notis

We had a wonderful day, in spite of rain, visiting Mycenae, Epidaurus, and Napflio with Notis as our driver and guide. We made a stop at the Corinth Canal on the way to Mycenae. Notis was very friendly and accommodating. He shared so much information about Greece - the area and sites we saw, the local history, culture, and daily life in the area we were visiting, as well as Greece, in general. He allowed us adequate time to visit the ruins at both Mycenae and Epidaurus, which were amazing, and thankfully the rain stopped for these explorations. We finished the day at a lovely restaurant in Napflio, enjoyed a wonderful lunch of pasta and langostinos, and shared an exceptional Greek wine. We were transiting from one hotel to another at the end of our trip. Notis picked us up promptly at one hotel in the morning, and delivered us safe and sound to our airport hotel in the evening. We couldn't have asked for a better guide and driver. The day was one of the highlights of our trip to Greece.

Essential Athens Highlights Plus Cape Sounion Skip-The-Line Tour

Cathy_B, Oct 2025

Great way to see Athens and Sounion in a day

We had one full day to see all the important sites in Athens and this was the way to go! Andreas was professional, interesting, educated, and we got a real sense of day to day life in Athens, not to mention a good historical perspective. He drove safely in a beautiful comfortable car, stopped for lunch at a place he spent his youth near, and was prompt and responsive to any other questions or times we wanted to stop for a viewpoint. I misunderstood the quality and dollar amount "stipend" that lunch included, I would have tried more things on the menu. Also it appeared that this was a place that a bus tour could and did stop, and we would have appreciated and paid for something more private and upscale. Nevertheless, it was a great sunny day and wonderful way to see Athens. Good communication before the excursion also, which always helps. Would recommend!

Historical Delphi One Day Tour with Arachova Stop & Expert Guide

Mayra_C, Oct 2025

Marianna our tour guide was very knowledgeable and informative. Tour was well organized, bus new and very clean. Driver excellent. Learned so much about the Greek origin of our English vocabulary. Extremely interesting. Give it 5+ stars.

Gene_M, Oct 2025

Very well-run organization, tour, and exceptional driver/guides

This was an exceptional experience. The guide/driver was incredibly knowledgeable, and organized in the way that he conveyed the information. The van was new and clean. The management of the company was very responsive, and we had clear and proactive communications with them at all times. We enjoyed this experience so much, that we booked another tour for a different day, and had an amazing experience on that one as well. We would highly recommend this tour, and the tour operator in general.

Desi_W, Aug 2025

Ideal way to experience Sounion

We had a wonderful experience with our knowledgeable tour guide, George. He provided interesting historical background throughout the tour and was easy to engage with. The trip was comfortable and just the right length. I would recommend including lunch with the package. We stopped at a delightful restaurant on the water and the food was delicious.

Full-Day Boat Tour of Paxos Antipaxos Blue Caves from Corfu

Aruna_V, Aug 2025

Amazing Experience

Have never experienced such gorgeous landscapes ever. The tour was excellent, right from the pick up by bus, to the cruise, the music, Maria making the announcements on board, to the captain taking us so close to the blue caves, swimming at Anti Paxos and lunch at paxos. Excellent day spent with so much to explore.
