Traveler reviews
Great tour with an excellent guide
Giannis was very professional and friendly guide and told us a lot about the history of the places that we went to. This tour was really enjoyable.
Greatest trip ever
The tour was very interesting but what made it special was our Guide/Driver. He was entertaining, very knowledgeable, and a good driver. He also was very accommodating to our needs. He was willing to discuss is personnel experiences and observations making the trip more interesting. We learned a great deal about Greece. I also left I hat in his car and he brought it bake to our Hotel when he found it. It was by far our best Viator experience and he have never had a complaint.
The Classical City of Thebes
While we were on a two-week group trip with Globus to take us to Athens, Corinth, Delphi, and Olympia, we also wanted to see Sparta and Thebes. We added two days onto our vacation and then contracted with Viator for separate trips to the last two cities. Our driver, George Lalos, picked us up at our hotel and drove us to Thebes. He was very friendly and accommodating during our time with him. The relatively archaeological museum was very nice and we visited the small amount of remaining ruins from the ancient city to include the Elektra Gate. We also visited the Karababa Castle site. Afterward, we all had lunch together at a restaurant in Chalkida. Thebes is only about 54 miles northwest of Athens. The total amount of time we spent on this excursion was 6.5 hours.
