Traveler reviews
Loved the private tour!
Panos was a wonderful guide! His knowledge was great and having a private tour is the best way to go! We enjoyed it very much. We have a new Greek friend!
Private Athens tour with Manos the Greek
We really enjoyed our 4hrs private tour of Athens with our tour guide Manos the Greek. Manos was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable of Athens historical sites. We really enjoyed and appreciate the customized service of pickup and drop off of every site and ensuring we had the best experience. We would definitely recommend Manos as your tour guide.
Athens and Acropolis
Theodore was very well educated, sharing and generally great.
Great day at the Acropolis!
Our Driver was on time for our pick up at the hotel. He was very friendly. Had waters for us for the tour. Our private guide was also very friendly and very knowledgeable. She had deep knowledge of the history or the Acropolis and Parthenon and extremely well versed in Greek mythology. She was very animated and brought the mythology to life all day. They took us to multiple sites. We really enjoyed seeing the sites and being educated. We also had a lot of fun along the way. Hiring a private guide in addition to the driver was a great idea.
Tour in style and see it all!!
I cannot say enough great stuff about this tour!! My tour guide was Stefanos. When you take this tour make sure to request him. He has the best energy!!! He will happily answer any question you have. And if you ask nicely he may do a stop for gelato or a freddo cappuccino. The tour itself shows you all the ancient spots in Athens and points out all the modern buildings along the way. And you will stop to view the changing of the guards. Stefanos, will explain the uniform and the significance of the marching style. The van has great AC and water is provided throughout the tour. The city has a lot to see and this is truly one of the best ways to do it!
