We saw all the major highlights of Athens. Thoukis was a great driver and guide. I recommend this tour to anyone in Athens for a short time.
Outstanding Private Tour of Athens and the Temple of Poseidon – Highly Recommend Nick! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Nick on our private tour of Athens and the Temple of Poseidon! From start to finish, Nick was exceptional. He was prompt, friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the history, culture, and incredible sights we visited. His insights and recommendations added so much to the experience and made the entire day even more enjoyable. What really stood out was Nick’s attention to detail and organization. He always made sure we knew exactly where we needed to be, what to expect, and when to meet. Everything was seamless, well-paced, and stress-free, allowing us to relax and truly enjoy the experience. Beyond his knowledge and professionalism, Nick was genuinely personable and went out of his way to make sure our group had a wonderful day. His helpful recommendations and local expertise were invaluable. If you’re visiting Athens and looking for an outstanding private tour guide, I cannot recommend Nick highly enough. He made our visit memorable, and we would absolutely book with him again. A first-class experience from beginning to end!
Tour guide was a very knowledgeable and passionate local about his country's history. Very accommodating nothing was too much trouble. Made sure everything ran smoothly and you got the most out of the day. We would highly recommend this experience where you can travel at your own pace but still see all the attractions you want.
We were impressed with every aspect of our Private Tour. Dimitrios arrived at our meeting place in a beautiful Mercedes Sedan and was so welcoming. He confirmed if we had booked Acropolis, and shaped the day to accommodate. We could not have had a better experience, highly recommend booking this Private Tour.
This was such a wonderful day with Dimitri. His communication the day of kept us informed and prepared. He was our driver, guide, historian, cultural expert, and more. A native of Athens, he treated us as family and took great care of us throughout our entire visit. There was something for everyone in our family. I received a full history lesson. My sister had her full cultural experience. And mom enjoyed a safe and customized escort throughout Athens. As an addition to our trip we were able to have an authentic Greek meal with a wonderful harbor view. We even learned so Greek. Ignore my spelling: Eff-harry-sto!
Konstantinos was a Prince! He knew where I wanted to go before I knew myself. Knowledgeable about Athens and passionate about Greek history, Konstantinos was the perfect intermediary between a first-time visitor and this beautiful, significant city. He knew where to go and how to get the perfect access. My pictures should credit Konstantinos. This was a perfect day!
This is a don’t miss tour ! Our tour was great. Nick our driver showed us the breathtaking city of Athens . Tailoring it to what was important to us allowing enough time to take in and appreciate each stops beauty. Nick’s knowledge. wisdom and personality made the day the perfect Tour. What a Great Day ! Thank you Nick !
I would highly recommend this tour if you are short on time in Athens. We were able to see all the highlights in one morning/afternoon (about 5 hours). If you can, ask for Thoukis to be your tour guide. He was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. When he heard my husband loved soccer and loved to visit stadiums he went out of his way to take us to a stadium and shop at the team store. He gave us a great recommendation for lunch and shopping after the tour and gave us suggestions for places to go in the evening.
Nick was a very accommodating driver/guide adjusting our schedule and even giving us extra time. Thoroughly enjoined seeing everything.
Nick was an awesome tour guide, he made sure we seen everything that was promised. Nick was very knowledgeable about Greek history and a pleasure to chat with. He never rushed us through the tour and encouraged us to take our time and take pictures, he took us to many places where there was great photo opportunities. I would recommend this tour and Nick.
The owner was our guide & he was great! Pretty much an historian, so we received an education along with a wonderful tour
Our guide Nick provided an outstanding tour of the important sites around Athens. His knowledge of the history of Greece and Greek culture made the tour both informative and relaxing.
This was a great way to see the city! We loved our tour and Constantine is the best guide! We left our day with a so many memories and a love of Athens!
The driver was super nice and an expert at the area - he gave us so much information! We got to see all of the sites, he helped to plan our visits to maximize our time, and we were ever through everything a little early. He then offered to take us wherever else we wanted to go. Highly recommended!
The best tour we’ve been on! Our guide, Nick, was fabulous, taking us to see all the amazing spots of Athens at just the right times. Lovely spacious, air conditioned van. Many photo stops. Perfect day. Highly recommend!
The gentleman (who was to pick us up) car broke down. It took 2 calls from us to the office to find out why he was late instead of being contacted immediately. An hour later we were on our way. We did inform him that we weren’t able to do a lot of walking (purpose of a private tour), so he drove by things on the schedule and told us about them. Mostly we were able to get pictures, but not always. The changing of the guard went very well . We were taken to the museum that we had to walk up a steep grade to get tickets for. We tried to do them online through the app, but it wouldn’t work.. We could walk around other areas just fine.
Our tour with Kostas was awesome. Took us to all the highlights of Athens and was a great tour guide. Easy to find him after our cruise and he dropped us back off at our Athens hotel. Would definitley recommend this private tour!
Great experience seeing all the amazing places in Athens and learning about the history! Highly recommend!
Nick was a wonderful driver & tour guide! He took us to all the sites we requested, gave great recommendations for baklava & lunch! We enjoyed his tour & definitely recommend him!
Kostas is a legend…. Thankyou for an amazing tour 🙏😊
We were met by our driver Andreas at the port. He took us all around Athens and made us feel special throughout the tour and modifying our itinerary to our needs and wants. He was happy to share with us an amazing amount of history relevant to our tour of Athens. We would highly recommend Andreas for an exceptional tour around Athens. Well worth the money!
Demetrius was the best Tour guide we've ever gotten using Viator. He was knowledgeable, polite and courteous. He knew where it takes us at the best times for the best access to sites with the fewest crowded and distractions.
Dimetrios was fantastic. Knew exactly where wer should go at the exact times.
Nico was amazing and the car was nice, clean, and cool. He was also timely, gave some historical insight without overwhelming, especially if you’re new here.
Nick was very helpful and patient with us. He gave us tips about different places and was always timely to pick us up. The car was also very comfortable and air conditioned.
Konstatine was a great tour guide. He arrived in a very nice clean vehicle and provided great information about all the stops. His attention to detail was great. He provided cold water after a couple of stops that required walking outside for an extended period of time. He took us for lunch at a great restaurant and included an extra stop for shopping. I highly recommend this private tour.
Kostas was excellent! Brought us to all of the best spots in Athens and gave so much information on each location. Comfortable car, great tour.
The tour was very good. It is a fast-paced tour, but that is to be expected when you squeeze this many stops into one day. It is an excellent taste of Athens. Theodore was our driver and did a fantastic job.
Best experience. We had a great time with Dennis. He was so informative and got us to all the places before the crowds got there.
We had an incredible experience with Nick as our guide! He was so knowledgeable and it was amazing he could share so much information with us. He even recommended a fantastic restaurant- authentic Greek food that my sons loved! Would recommend to everyone!
Nick is a really good guide and very knowledgeable on the history here. The only negative is that he skipped a few stops on the itinerary and you should research it if you want to stop at each venue.
Nick was a great tour guide. He showed us all the picturesque spots and which ones were worth paying the admission for. We loved that we could set the pace of the tour as well.
Theodore did a wonderful job making sure we saw all the important things in Athens. He was very knowledgeable in many areas, and very accommodating to our wishes.
A truly special day with an incredible guide/chauffeur Strongly recommend Very enthusiastic host for the great city of Athens
Our guide was awesome. Very knowledgeable and helpful. He made our stay here in Athens an experience we will always remember
Had a fabulous tour with Kostas. He took us to see all the sights in Athens and explained everything to us about each visit. We highly recommend him!!
Our driver was incredible. Prompt, friendly, engaged, safe. He was lovely about me forgetting my sweater in the car and needing to come back. Great commentary about the tour and nice local detail. Price was very good. Large van that was clean, supplied water.
Kostas was fantastic!! From the moment I booked this excursion, to the day of the excursion, he was great. He communicated with us every step of the way, bought tickets ahead of time, and made us constantly feel at ease. He picked us up around the corner from our hotel and took us all around Athens. We had a wonderful day with him and would highly recommend this tour to anyone else visiting Athens!
Konstantine was a wonderful tour guide, very energetic and descriptive of all the places he takes you. He really loves showing his city of Athens to visitors. Close drop off at all the sites you want to see and waiting ti pick you up after. He has books and pictures in the car to show you and really explain what you are seeing. Would recommend.
Our driver Dennis was amazing. All our sites were good. We came in April and it was busy but not as crowded as it can be in later in year. Everything is great. But be aware that the restaurant would not give us each our check. We had 9 of us and one of us (me) paid whole bill and other people has to just send me money. It was not easy to do that. We asked them to break the bill up and they said no. Also brought us more appetizers than we asked for (did charge us for them) . But the food was good.
Our guide, Kostas, did an excellent job. We saw all the major sights. This was a private tour and we had his 100% attention. He answered all our questions and provided great feedback. He was also very patient with us. It was a great tour.
We had a great time with Dennis! He was very knowledgeable!
Dennis, a very compassionate guide with Great Greece Tours, did an amazing job and went above and beyond to give us a wonderful experience throughout Greece. He is highly educated and incredibly knowledgeable about Greece, sharing fascinating insights that truly enriched our trip. His kindness, dedication, and attention to detail made the experience unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Alicia Beach
Konstantinos was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He loves his job and it shows. Athens is his home city and he is very proud of it and loves showing it off. He was the best.
Kosta was an excellent host. Our day began with on time pick up and a run through of all he had planned for us . Quickly asked if the itinerary was fine and if we wanted to do anything else. He had planned the perfect day and gave us the right amount of time and tips at each spot. We learned so much of Athens and its rich history. Somehow he managed to always get us front and center for great views and pictures. A storm came through when we visited the acropolis and as we hurried to get back he was right there waiting as he promised. He made great alternative plans during the storm for us to continue to experience Athens. We had a fun filled educational day with Kosta riding in his very comfortable and clean Mercedes. Highly recommend!
Amazing tour with a wealth of knowledge of local culture and excellent English. If you want the best, take this tour!
It was great to have a driver that only has to be concerned with our small group. Well worth the money to have individual attention and a person very knowledgeable about everything we were seeing!
We had such an amazing day on our private tour with Dennis. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made our day super fun! Also, the Mercedes van was very nice! I highly recommend this tour if you want to see a lot of Athens in a short amount of time.
Great way to start your time in Athens. We were able to see so much of Athens and our driver/guide, Constantinous, was excellent. Gave us great information about the history and the current day information about Athens Recommend highly, well worth your time and money.
