What are people saying about Athens

Best of Athens Half Day Private Tour

George_O, Oct 2026

Exceeded our expectations on a tour of Athens!

My wife had a driver take us on a private tour of Athens. George was very professional and knowledgeable about the city. We only had a limited time in Athens as we arrived on a cruise ship in the morning and we were leaving that evening on the same ship. We were able to purchase tickets to the Acropolis with no waiting in line. Besides the Acropolis, our driver took us around the city exploring and shared with us the history of many areas and locations such as the Parliament, Olympic Park and the old section of Athens to name a few. Would highly recommend this tour!

Greek Food Walking Tour in Athens

Mavis_N, Oct 2026

What an incredible tour!

OMG. Pace yourself! You encounter so much good Greek food, it’s a challenge to find room for it all. We tried starters and mains, nuts and cheeses, honeys and olives and so many fabulous desserts. Oh and coffee! Our guide Peggy was knowledgeable and generous and kept feeding us for four hours. What an incredible tour!

Meteora Day Trip with Sunset, Caves, Beachfront Stop & Lunch

Lisa_S, Oct 2026

Amazing Experience

Amazing Experience and worth the climb. The 1st monastery, St Nikolaos, was the hardest climb. The 2nd, Varlaam Monastery was easier, larger and more beautiful than the 1st. Holy Trinity was the last and smallest. The photo stops were well planned and breathtaking, with locations used in Game of Thrones and 007 For Your Eyes Only. Don’t be last in line for lunch. The guide was locally raised and well educated in the local history. A tour not to be missed.

Acropolis and Parthenon Guided Walking Tour

John_D, Oct 2026

Beyond our expectations - Well paced walk up the Acropolis!

We had an excellent guide to walk to the top of the Acropolis. She was very knowledgeable and communicated clearly and with some humor. As she promised, she took nicely spaced out breaks on the way to the top, taking advantage of shade and empty spaces to gather our group. We are two mature seniors and appreciated her attention to where everyone was in the group and the thoughtful pace she maintained for everyone. It was truly a wonderful experience.

Athens Full Day Private Tour

Mark_B, Oct 2026

Great way to really see the heart of Athens

Our tour guide, Andreas, was exceptional. He obviously loved his home town of Athens, and he presents it with energy and pride. His knowledge of the history behind what we saw was very helpful. What made the tour great was his willingness to adjust the tour to meet what we wanted to see in Athens. Not only did we get to see all the key attractions, but he took us to areas we didn’t even know about. These were places he thought we would enjoy based on what we said we were interested in. As an example, we asked to go to a Greek bakery for a desert after lunch. Andreas brought us to a great local bakery and we had a fantastic desert. Overall, a great experience.

Acropolis monuments & Parthenon Walking Tour with Optional Acropolis Museum

Ceil_E, Oct 2026

Great Acropolis and Museum Tour

John the Archeologist was such a fantastic tour guide. We learned so much about the Acropolis. He leads a great tour. It’s tiring to hike up to the top, but John took many stops along the way where we could sit and he taught us. Wear hiking shoes or good gym shoes. Hat and water are a must.

Athens Full Day Private Tour

Christa_L, Oct 2026

Awesome day of exploring

We had a wonderful day!! Tolis was our driver. He was waiting for us at the port which we pre-arranged. We had a group of 8. The transportation was so comfortable. Tolis was incredibly knowledgeable, funny, answering our questions. He was gentle to ensure our safety and flexible when we chose to not do the museum at the end of our tour offering to take us to the market instead. Thank you Tolis! We would absolutely recommend this tour and Tolis. Thanks

I received a warning the day before my much anticipated tour that it was not suitable for those with mobility issues. I fully expected to sit out the tour and join the group at the Museum at the end. The guide made it so interesting I kept persisting and with his help and that of a number of group members reaching out their hands and arms I had a great trip. Many thanks to all for the compassion involved.

Cape Sounion and Temple of Poseidon Half-Day Small-Group Tour from Athens

Robert_M, Oct 2026

Nice four-hour day trip from Athens.

Well run tour, from pickup to very efficient dropoffs. Roy was a very knowledgeable and personable guide. The drive itself was scenic and informative. I liked the stop at Lake Vouliagmeni. The temple of Poseidon was interesting and a nice vantage spot for a sunset. There was a small restaurant and restrooms there, and a small hill for different vantage point.

Gorgeous experience and great crew. Everyone was so friendly, relaxed, and on top of every task to ensure everyone had a great time. Food was extraordinary and with lots of gluten free & dairy free options. Make sure to tell the crew about your allergies, they made special sandwiches for us as part of the morning snack. They also had fantastic tracks on the boat, but with quieter spaces to suit every traveler. Highly recommend the experience, it was the highlight of our trip 🫶🏼
