Great driver makes a great tour - Driver / tour guide spoke perfect English, was interesting, enthusiastic, courteous, and responsive to our needs and wishes. We were able to see things at our own pace.

You won’t regret choosing this tour - The tour was excellent . Our tour guide, Giannis was outstanding. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. He was very knowledgeable; gave us the history of places we drove by and the ones we visited and was very friendly as well. We were picked up at the port before the scheduled time which was great and dropped off at the port in time. The tour gives plenty of time to see each sight at your own pace. Glad we chose this tour. I definitely recommend.

Absolutely the best Athens tour ever!!! - Our tour guide Nicolas was absolutely the best. He drove us everywhere and pointed out great landmarks adding the history and special facts all through the tour. We couldn’t have had a better experience with any other tour group. The Viator tours in Athens and Santorini have been the best experience that could be provided. Viator is the best.

Bad experience with half day Ahens tour - Badly organised tour with a poor guide …
We spent 2 hours in the bus picking up people for the tour and the tour did last only 1 hour with poor explanations of the guide !
We were 6 people and paid 390 euros !
It was a waste of time and money
