Christopher was our tour guide. He was very friendly and organized. Bus was clean and driver was good Pickup was on time and the instructions were very clear. The view of Corinth canal was stunning but the archaeological site was just average especially after the Acropolis visit. Just the sight of the Corinth canal is already worth the trip. Excellent tour!!

Great trip. The van came on time in the meeting spot and also there is an employer waiting at omonia (one of the meeting point) prior to the van arrived to make sure we are already there. The trip itself is good with audio guide and video illustration of what the sites looked like originally (before became ruin).

    Corinth, Met Expectations !

    Bert_I, Mar 2026
    Alexandria and our driver were excellent. Alexandria was an amazing tour guide giving wonderful commentary as we travelled from locations.

    An excellent Corinth tour

    Half Day Ancient Corinth and Canal VR Audio Guided Tour

    Tour went smoothly. Corinth Canal just a short stop. The tour at Ancient Corinth, we were given a smart phone with earpiece for self-guided. The tour guide did not follow us. The audio guide was difficult to use. In the end we didn't use it. Entrance fee of €15 per person not included for Ancient Corinth. The tour was not half day but ended at 4:30pm. Overall, we enjoyed the tour.

    Great tour guide

    Our guide Stephan was excellent, very knowledgeable and helpful. The sights were amazing, the time of stay for each location was perfect.

    Enjoyable and interesting...

    stephen_i, Dec 2025
    Enjoyable and interesting tour with knowledgeable guide, who put some flesh on the bones on Greece's complex history. Would definitely recommend.

    All was okey. Nothing...

    Zviad_C, Dec 2025
    All was okey. Nothing surprised. Just normal planed tour. It seems like tour guide, despite she was so nice and cute, she was like exhausted because of traveling at the same location maybe billion times)) 😁 and telling same stories. But it was fine. 😁 understandable Otherwise it was safe trip anyway what is most important

    Good trip

    Vasilis ang Yorgos are great! Very professional, available, helpful and you can see that they enjoy what they do.

    A superb day out of Athens

    stephen_D, Oct 2025
    Excellent well paced itinerary that combined four diversified destinations. The background knowledge provided by Dido, our guide, was just right. She also allowed well deserved quiet time

    Nice to explore Corinth ...

    lascanokirsten, Oct 2025
    Nice to explore Corinth on your own but the audio is worthless…better to just read the signs. Guide was pleasant and informative!

    Great!

    Maryellen_W, Oct 2025
    It was easy - took a bus to our destination had plenty of time to see all the ruins and had a nice lunch too

    Fantastic tour! Fantastic guide. Fantastic driver!

    Janis_P, Oct 2025
    Stefanos delivered a world class tour today! I could not have asked for a better experience. He is a wealth of knowledge and very personable. I very much enjoyed the tour today and when I come back to Greece next year, I will look for tours that Stefanos Guides! Each of the stops had perfect timing. Stefano seems to know worldwide information that I found very interesting in such a young man. We had phones with earbuds.to deliver maps and information for the points in ancient Corinth. The phones worked perfectly. I am very happy with my experience and I feel that it was of great value both financially and culturally. Don't pass up the opportunity for this tour! Our driver was very pleasant and personable. In fact, he's one of the best of my experiences in Greece! You can't go wrong with these two!

    Great Tour to Corinth

    Karen_D, Jul 2025
    Great tour to the Corinth Canal and the Ancient ruins of Corinth. The tour was 7 hours so most of the day. Saw the canal and then onto the ruins to walk around at your own pace. Spent around 3 hours here and could have lunch in the old town next to the ruins. Plenty of leisure time and not a rushed tour. Capped off the day with a photo opportunity at the castle and old port. Would recommend. Our guide and driver were excellent.

    Well planed trip

    Natalia_A, Jul 2025
    Christopher was a really nice guide, had a great knowledge not only about places we were going to but also those we were passing by. The tour started on time, and I think it was very well timed, 3 hours in Corinth were enough for me to walk through the museum and the ruins in a slower pace to take everything in and read every writing on every stone. Seeing the canal, Acrocorinth and the port were a good additions to my trip to Corinth and I enjoyed all those stops very much. The bus was well air-conditioned and really an asset in the Greek summer.

    I would never book with this agent again. Totally unreliable and didn’t care and lied.

    kerry_R, Jul 2025
    Bus did not pick us up so we did not go on the trip. Waited for one hour at the meeting place. It was 40 degrees in Athens and waiting around was uncomfortable. No one phoned us but they claimed they had. Very very poor experience I am bitterly disappointed and would never book with this company again. I had not realised that Viator had outsourced the trip to an unreliable agent who did not care and lied about contacting us. Also Viator app did not work without WiFi so I could not contact them to get some advice until it was too late.

    Nice tour

    Sara_B, Jun 2025
    This was a very nice day exploring the ruins and seeing the incredible canal. It’s amazing to think we walked the same streets as the apostle Paul! The scenery was beautiful and the bus had good a/c and comfortable seats. We enjoyed a nice lunch in the little town of Corinth and the food and people were wonderful. It was nice to have several locations for pickup and drop off which made it easy for us to walk and not have to worry about transportation. Elefthiria was a sweet guide with a lot of knowledge of history and geography.

    A good day trip to take - Well paced

    cliffordpinto, Jun 2025
    This purely a VR Experience (Audio & Visual) Tour and Not a Tour with "a Guide and Commentary" when you are inside Corinth and Corinth Museum. The VR gadget is easy to use. You can see and hear pretty good information. Our Guide was good and told us about Athens and a bit about Corinth while we were on the bus ride and gave us ample time at the Corinth Canal, Ancient Corinth, Acro Corinth and Cenchreae.

    phone/device

    Sana_D, May 2025
    Overall a great experience. The only problem was with the phone/device it kept leaving the tour program and it was time consuming to restart. As I pre studied the site I was able to enjoy the experience.

    Incredible Canal Day Trip

    Response from Host, Jan 2025

    Thank you! Glad you had a great trip and enjoyed the amazing canal!

    A lovely day out of the city of Athens xx

    John_W, Nov 2024
    Just a great trip, only a short time spent at Corinth canal, the tour of ancient Corinth was very interesting , make sure you don’t miss out the museum!! We then were taken to Corinth castle, which was a bonus, fantastic views , then on to ancient port of Kenchreae, before returning to Athens. Take note, it advertised as 1/2 day, but it is a lot longer…but well worth it!!!!

    Response from Host, Dec 2024

    Thank you ! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour, particularly the intriguing visit to Ancient Corinth!

    What an adventure we saw more than anticipated. The beautiful canal, the quaint town of Corinth and our tour guide Nancy. What a great experience and would highly recommend.

    Response from Host, Jan 2025

    Great Excursion & Great guide

    Cyriel_V, May 2024
    Really nice excursion with a small group. Maria our guide was very friendly, knowledgable and very approachable. Corinth is REALLy worth the visit and Maria made it a really great experience. Worth it

    Interesting tours, but uncomfortable minibus

    eguibert2, Mar 2026
    Interesting excursion, but very uncomfortable minibus. Stop too fast and frustrating at the fortress

    Very geod organized...

    Niels_D, Nov 2025
    Very well organized tour. Perfect at scheduled hour picked up by bus. Historical site of Corinth is possible at your own speed thanks to device with app you receive. Channel is tif to see but historical site is main part of excursion. Excursion takes almost 8 hours by about 1.5 hours bus ride.
