A Perfect Day in Athens

Herta_S, Jun 2025

We had a fantastic private tour for our family of seven with Akis as our driver and guide. He was very flexible and incredibly knowledgeable, offering great advice on what to see and enhancing everything with insightful historical facts. The Mercedes was impeccable, spacious and comfortable, and we always felt safe and well cared for. Akis also went the extra mile by securing a reservation at an excellent restaurant with a stunning view of the Acropolis — a perfect way to end the day. Highly recommend this tour and guide!

Very flexible

Mike_S, Jul 2023

We loved having Aki show us around! We had an unplanned meetup with some friends but they were very flexible and modified their plans to meet our needs. Aki packed in some sites with the time we had left and got us (family of 5) back on time. I would highly recommend them.

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear Aki provided a flexible and enjoyable tour for your family, accommodating your plans seamlessly. Your recommendation means a lot to us! We hope to welcome you again in the future.

Wonderful family day in Athens

cecitorres, Jul 2019

: Excellent service by our driver Tazos He picked us up 7:00 am so that we could make it to the Acropolis before the crowds. He knew exactly were to go, explaining in detail the history of his country and every place. He took us to every must of Athens and gave us time to walk on our own while he waited for us , very close in the van. He was kind and friendly with the kids (16,14 and 6 years old) At lunch he took us to an authentic greek restaurant with delicious food and excellent orices. We could customize the tour according to our interests and own pace. We had a wonderful day.
