Great experience & guide. - We visited many key sites from the birthplace of democracy. Our driver/guide was great and explained in great detail the history and other little known facts. He was also flexible when traffic was a problem and suggested alternatives. The Parthenon and changing of the guard were really interesting. If I went on another tour, I would request the same guide.

Nothing short of amazing! - Giannis was absolutely amazing as a driver/tour guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable and so much fun. He knew of all the best places for us to eat and have coffee. He was also prepared for anything providing us with a portable WiFi for use as well as water and umbrellas since it was rainy during our visit. The sites we visited were nothing short of spectacular. I could not recommend this excursion more!

Must do private tour! - Excellent private tour with Peter. He was knowledgeable and a wonderful guide. Went to all the locations with plenty of time at each. If you want a more intimate tour, I would definitely recommend this one!

Athens in a day trip - I knew Athens history is wide and deep both in space and time. I could not imagine how a day trip.could offer more than some.vague idea. Yet Angelos did it. He gave us not only a taste of but also a taste for Athens. Punctual, on time, allowing us to spend more time to spots of special interest and being able to catch up on the way to the next stop. Professional, clean and accurate. We got a feeling of the Athens of days foregone and we realized the perspective of the new Athens. Fasten your seat belts and be prepared to follow Angelos in the dimensions to come. An experience to be repeated.
