Traveler reviews
Athens car tour!
Very professional and informative tour. Our driver, Manos, was early for pick up and accommodated all of our requests. Very knowledgeable about the history and the area. Excellent morning.
Fantastic Athens Half Day Tour!
This was my first trip to Athens and it was fantastic! I booked a half day tour (including dinner) with pick up from our hotel with Theo's Travels. Our driver/guide Manos was the best! He showed up 15 minutes in a very nice Mercedes stocked with water and Greek chips. We went to all of the historical sites and a few others too. We always had great viewing/photo areas (even the changing of the President's guards!). On the way back to Glyfada, he continued to entertain and educate us until dropping us off. Our 6 hour tour flew by and he is a very safe driver, which is very important to me personally! Manos has a passion for history and the ability to make everything interesting, fun and memorable (did you know Greece became "Greece" in 1830?). At the conclusion, I felt that I had really seen and understood historic Athens. From first contact to sadly saying goodbye, the whole experience was first-class all the way. Thanks so much Manos!

Amazing Experience!
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Stathis as our private tour guide in Athens. His knowledge of the city, its history, and the many fascinating stories behind the places we visited was truly amazing. Stathis was punctual, professional, and picked us up exactly on time from our designated pickup spot. He took us to numerous incredible locations and made the entire experience so enjoyable, sharing a tremendous amount of knowledge and history along the way. We have had several private tour guides during our travels, and Stathis was undoubtedly one of the best. His passion for Athens really came through, and he went above and beyond to make sure we had a memorable experience. We couldn’t speak more highly of Stathis and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and personable private guide in Athens. Thank you, Stathis, for such a fantastic day!
Half day private tour with Andy
Andy was our guide and he was great!! Gave us a lot of history with each place we went to. Very friendly, professional, answered all of our questions. Had water and snacks for us. May sure we had restroom if we need it. At each place we were able to get out and walk around or go into the sights. All in all a reallt good way to see Athens with personal touches.
