All the best secret spots to see this lovely city!

Demetrios was fantastic. He really loves Athens and has a passion for Greece that shone through. He was also super knowledgeable and a lot of fun. We went to all the beautiful famous sites as well as some wonderful lesser known ones. Highly recommend!

Great tour/guide

Pick up & drop off at our hotel was very convenient. Theodore really seemed to enjoy sharing his knowledge of Athens. He had in-depth historical facts and mythological stories. He was flexible with the stops because we had already done a few stops yesterday in the daytime hrs in Athens. He made sure the Acropolis stop was last so that we could really see it lit up. The sunset @ Lycabettus Hill was pretty. Highly recommend the tour & the guide!
