Traveler reviews
Best private tour experience!
We customized our itinerary with our driver, Marselo, starting at 11:00 AM from Rafina. Flipping the schedule to hit Cape Sounion first was the best decision—the Temple of Poseidon was incredibly peaceful before the afternoon rush. Marselo then drove us into Athens for a city tour, saving the Acropolis for last so we could avoid the worst of the midday heat. He was an amazing host and ended the perfect day by taking us to a great local neighborhood for an authentic dinner away from the crowds before dropping us at our hotel. Having Marselo's local insight and private car made the whole day seamless and fun!
Memorable experience with Marselo
We had a bit of a unique plan, starting at 11:00 AM from Rafina, and this private tour handled it flawlessly. Instead of the usual route, we hit Cape Sounion first, which was awesome because we got to explore the Temple of Poseidon without the massive evening crowds. After that, we headed into Athens to see the city highlights and saved the Acropolis for last. Doing the Acropolis later in the day was a total game-changer—much cooler and way more enjoyable to walk around. Our driver was fantastic, super chill, and kept us comfortable in the AC the whole time. To wrap up the day, they took us to a really cool local neighborhood for an authentic dinner away from all the tourist traps. Getting dropped off right back at our hotel at the end of the night made everything so easy. If you want a stress-free day that actually goes at your own pace, book this!
Very knowledgeable tour guide
On the drive to and from Sounio, Elton took us through an extremely detailed and in depth overview of Greek history. I appreciated his passion for the subject.
A must for anyone traveling to Athens!
Sebastian was an amazing and accommodating tour guide. This was truly a private tour and we optimized the entire time together. I will definitely recommend him to others. He is very knowledgeable about Athens, the Hellenic history, and all of the trivia questions that we had! Great way to see so much of greater Athens!
