Fantastic Run

We had a fanatic run through Athens with John. He was very friendly, very knowledgeable and a professional coach as well. The miles flew by and we had a brilliant time.

Great start to a day in Athens! Dimitra was incredibly friendly. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants to get some exercise while seeing the sights of Athens!

Better to go yourself

Very overpriced. I wish I had just taken myself for a run. I didn’t get enough out of it. For a country so rich in history, I didn’t feel like there was enough depth to the information I was delivered.

Running in Athens

Running with Giánnis was awesome! We met in the city center and ran all the way to the Panathenaic Stadium. Giánnis is a great guy and the journey was amazing. I highly recommend it.

A Highlight Experience in Greece

I cannot say enough of what a terrific experience this was. I met Jon in the morning and we ran through Athens and ended in the modern Olympic stadium. Getting to take a couple laps on the track is a memory I’ll cherish forever. He let me pick the pace as we chatted the entire time. If you’re a runner, I highly encourage you to add this to your itinerary. It was a “Top 5” experience in Greece! (Note: Visit the souvenir stand the day before and buy yourself a medal they have limited hours.) Brian Maves
