Traveler reviews
Great tour and experience all around!!!
Our driver Theodore was prompt in picking my family of 9 up at the hotel. He took us to the Acropolis and around town showing us the sights. We were a bit exhausted from traveling and we wanted to eat so he proposed a great restaurant in town called Arcadia. He was a great guide and very courteous and accommodating. Thank you again!
Athens from cruise port
The tour guide was excellent and nothing was too much trouble. Stefanos was so knowledgeable with the history of Athens and knew the best spots to take us.
Athens Private Tour from Cruise Port with Kids
Our Private Athens tour from cruise port was amazing! We hit all the highlights and beat most of the tours to each spot! Arris our guide was amazing with our children and was able to connect with them and gave them all the history about each site at their level! Highly recommend for your trip to Athens!
Excellent half day with Stefanos!
Our family was a mix of grandparents and kids as we did a big family trip and Stefanos was excellent! He was incredibly passionate, taught us a lot and showed us everything we wanted to see. He was always ready and waiting for us with an air conditioned vehicle and ice cold water which was necessary in the hot July heat! We truly learned a lot and would have booked with him for other tours if we needed it. Highly recommend!
A perfect few hours in Athens
Theodore was a brilliant driver and host and we had an amazing trip. Great information from our guide Alina, and obviously the Acropolis is a site not to be missed. Wish we could stay longer to do justice to all the other great attractions Athens has to offer but we’ll be back soon. The warm welcome of the Greeks is always hugely appreciated and difficult to match. Thank you to our wonderful guides.
