Traveler reviews
Amazing tour
Our tour guide Panos was prompt, courteous and very knowledgeable about the history of Greece. I would highly recommend taking a tour with Panos.
Athens Private Tour with guide
Panos was an absolutely fantastic guide! We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Athens. We learned so much, saw so many incredible sights, and loved that we were able to experience everything at our own pace without ever feeling rushed. Panos was knowledgeable, friendly, accommodating, and made the entire day so easy and enjoyable for our group. The door-to-door service was a huge bonus and made getting around Athens completely stress-free. This was truly one of the highlights of our trip. If you’re looking for a wonderful way to experience Athens, book this tour and ask for Panos. You won’t be disappointed! Highly, highly recommend!
Athens highlights
Panos was amazing! Great history knowledge and delicious traditional Greek taverna lunch.
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.
