We had the absolute BEST experience with Athens Photo Tour! ❤️🇬🇷 From start to finish, they were incredible. We were a little nervous going into a professional photo shoot, but Panos made us feel so comfortable and natural the entire time. He was amazing at giving us direction without making anything feel forced or awkward, and somehow captured so many genuine moments between us. As a gay couple, it was especially meaningful to have a photo shoot where we felt completely comfortable being ourselves. We never once felt anything other than welcomed, respected, and celebrated. That meant so much to us and made the experience even more special. Dimitri was also fantastic throughout the entire process. Communication was easy, he was incredibly reassuring, and he gave us great recommendations that made our time in Athens even better. And honestly, for the quality of the experience and the photos we received, we were really impressed with how affordable it was. We would 100% recommend Athens Photo Tour to anyone wanting to capture their time in Athens in a really special way. Huge kudos to Panos, Dimitri, and the whole team. You made us feel comfortable, cared for, and honestly just had so much fun with us. We’ll treasure these photos forever! ❤️🇬🇷📸

We have done photography sessions in many foreign countries and this experience was among the best. Dimitris confirmed with us and made sure directions were clear and all contact information was easily available to us. He was easy to work with. Our photographer, Panos, was an absolute delight and was just as much “tour guide” as he was photographer showing us new places and sharing lots of history along the way. Additionally, he was a careful and thoughtful photographer always ensuring we were posed perfectly to look our best. Most photographers do not pay such careful attention to positioning, especially in travel scenarios. Panos felt like a friend who always tells you the truth because they care! We did fun travel photos as well as professional photos for each of us to use with work. Panos showed us pictures along the way and we can’t wait to get the gallery. I highly recommend Athens Photo Tour to anyone hoping to learn a little more about the unique city and have beautiful lasting memories captures along the way.
We had a wonderful experience with Athens Photo Tours and our photographer, Panos. He was incredibly friendly, made us feel immediately at ease, and guided us through some beautiful corners of Athens that we would have never discovered on our own. He also shared interesting pieces of the city’s history as we walked. The photos came out beautifully, but what stood out most was how natural and comfortable the whole session felt. It didn’t feel like a typical photoshoot where you end up feeling awkward or tired — it felt more like a relaxed walk through the city with a true professional. Our session lasted one hour, and it was absolutely worth it. I would highly recommend Athens Photo Tours and Panos to anyone visiting Athens.
Our photographer Panos did a great job. Taking us through Plaka and teaching us how to pose for the photos. We are happy with the results. Love our pictures. Thank you very much. I totally recommend Athens Photographer.
The Flying Dress photo shoot was perfect. Panos, the photographer, and his assistant, Amalia, were well prepared and very patient. The photos turned out beautifully. I would use them again.
We had an incredible experience with Panos from Athens Photo Tour during our proposal photoshoot in Athens. Panos was not only professional but also made the entire experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. He knew all the best locations, capturing the beauty of the city and the emotion of the moment perfectly. His attention to detail and ability to put us at ease resulted in stunning photos that we will cherish forever. If you’re looking for a photographer in Athens, especially for something as special as a proposal, we highly recommend them. They truly made our day unforgettable!
My husband and I decided to have photos made while in Athens for vacation. We are so pleased with the photos. Dimitris was amazing and made the experience a lot of fun. We highly recommend doing this as we got to see places that we would have never found on our own and the photos will be a lifelong memory of this adventure.
Panos and his sister were professional and so much fun! They instructed us on how to pose which created the most stunning pictures I have ever seen. They were an absolute pleasure to work with!
Absolutely incredible, photographer and assistant were so encouraging and professional. Told exactly how to pose and made sure they were able to get the exact perfect shots.
The views were amazing and Amelia, the phot assistant, was so helpful. I didn’t feel uncomfortable in any way and the pics that I did see came out amazing! I would definitely recommend this activity in Athens to create memories!
Dimitris was a joy to work with in planning the surprise proposal of a lifetime. He was very professional and knew how to draw out my vision for my proposal. We are so glad we chose him to be the one to capture that special moment. Highly recommend.
I am very happy with my photo shoots. It worth the value of money that I paid, and I recommend it to everyone. My photographer, Panos, was a good photographer and a friendly person. He had nice suggestions for selecting the locations and poses.
I planned a surprise proposal with Dimitris and start to finish he was fantastic. Always communicated well, was very friendly and of course, took the most beautiful pictures. We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Dimitris and his team, and I am extremely thankful I was able to find him when I did. Thank you again!
"Dimitris Giouvris Photography in Athens, Greece is simply exceptional. From the seamless process to the stunning final results, every aspect exceeded expectations. Dimitris's talent, professionalism, and passion shine through in every photograph. Highly recommended for capturing timeless moments with unparalleled artistry."
This walking photo tour was incredible! I book photos every time my husband and I travel just the two of us and this was by far my favorite we’ve done yet. Our photographer, Panos, was so kind and knowledgeable of the city. This made for both beautiful photos and a great learning experience our first time here in Athens!
This was a wonderful experience, not only having some beautiful photos taken of us in this special place, but also getting some local advice about places to visit and history from Dimitris.
This company was very professional and I was very impressed with our photographer. They were extremely polite & welcoming
My fiancé organised a secret proposal with Dimitris and we couldn’t be any happier. The location was easy to find thanks to Dimitris step by step, easy guide. It was our first photo shooting together and Dimitris guided on what to do with a very friendly manner. He also suggested places to eat and visit. We received a couple of photos on the same day and the rest 2 days later.
The experience was fantastic! The team took very good care of me and my family. I took pictures in the flying dress and then with my husband and son. My advice, book your photo shoot as soon as possible. You will be very pleased!
Excellent experience and allowed us to capture a special moment in our lives. Very friendly and took us to multiple great spots. Would recommend to anyone thinking of proposing in Athens.
We are very impressed with the photos - the quality is way beyond my expectation. The photographer has been very professional and friendly during the tour and quick in photo post production. I would like to say thank you to Dimitris (my photographer) for his time and amazing work. I would highly recommend this tour if you wish to capture special moments with your love ones in Greece.
Dimitris was awesome. We’ve done travel photography with a few people, and he was one of the best we’ve worked with. First, bus transportation was a problem, and he was understanding when we called to tell him we would be late. He waited for us and started immediately when we got there. He took us around the perimeter of the Acropolis and knew all the best photo spots. When we got our photos, we loved them. He takes great shots and makes you feel comfortable while doing so. His instructions were easy to follow and he was not pushy. We’re also very excited about his edits. Overall, this was a great experience, and I truly recommend this to anyone looking for professional photography in Athens.
Dimitris is an AMAZING photographer and the photos were awesome!! It was a great experience and one we will not soon forget!
Highly recommended! I went on this photo shoot tour on 23/10 and already received the gallery link few days after. I went solo but felt very comfortable. My photographer is Panos and he made me looked like a model. The spots we went were really nice area of Plaka and around Acropolis. Panos was very professional as he briefly explained about the area and guide me how to pose and he would know what would be best angle and where are best spots to take a shot. Don’t waste your time wandering by yourself, book this professional one so you can have memorable photos.
Amazing Experience! I have hired professional photographers in the past in different cities in Europe and this was by far the best experience. Our photographer, Takis was a great tour guide and we got so many great pictures!! So happy with the experience and would recommend it to anyone thinking about visiting Athens!!! I would give it 6 out of 5 stars if I could! Thanks again!
Very professional photographers, took their time with us, captured the best moments, the best shots were taken by them highly recommended!
The best most professional photographers ive met, the shots were mesmerizing, the video was gorgeous , and the location recommended by them was breathtaking! Highly recommended The service was one of a kind. Very professional, and very patient. They made the day 100 times better.
Amazing experience! Panos and Bobby were very kind and easy to work with. They met us in a easy to find part of Athens and guided us through several parts of town. Gave us details about Athens and pointed out several relics along the way. Panos was our main photographer and took his time insuring great photos and poses. He took individual shots as well. Panos was very friendly and encouraging as he showed us where and how to stand. Bobby was assisting as well, and carried our belongings so they were safe and out of the shots. They both ensured our safety while with them. The final location for pictures was occupied so, Panos took extra time with us to ensure that we could get the pictures we wanted of the Acropolis at sunset. Overall a VERY amazing experience and a great team to work with. I highly recommend them for anyone getting couples photos.
We had an amazing photo shoot with Dimitri on June 03rd 2022. We just came home from Athens, Greece and we are loving all of the beautiful pictures. This is not the 1st time we have used Dimitri's company. We also did a photo shoot in Athens a couple of years ago too and they were just as beautiful. When you go on vacation somewhere it's not easy to capture couple photos without stopping people to take your photo and you never get the quality you do with a professional photographer. At the end of the day it's about the memories you make and capture with professional photos that last a lifetime. Thanks, Until the next vacation photo shoot.
Easy and beautiful walk with gorgeous photos delivered in just a day! This is a perfect experience for anyone.
I had an amazing photo shoot tour with Dimitri in January 22 - I enjoyed the day, and love the photo results. Highly recommended!!
Great experience! Wonderful photos! We had so much fun walking around Acropole and doing the photos. The photographer understood exactly what we wanted and now we have beoutiful memories of our "Girls' trip to Athens". Highly recommend!!!!
I cannot find the words profound enough to express the utter gratitude that I have for Dimitris @theAthensPhotographer. He was able to capture exactly what I was hoping for with our annual family pictures in a destination location. Dimitris was on time, professional and extremely knowledgeable in the best spots near the Acropolis and Plaka. He was patient with our requests and our children. He is humble in his talent and a pleasure to talk with over our two our photo shoot. You will not be disappointed!!
Highly recommend this tour! Dimitris was a great pleasure to work with. He was responsive, professional, knew the best spots in the city, took beautiful pictures, and gave us insights about the city. I read all the reviews before deciding to do it, and they are all positively true - thank you Dimitris!
My Plaka neighborhood picturials was absolutely amazing.Dimitri is very accommodating with us and patiently waiting cause we we’re late a little bit.
The most amazing experience! We had engagement photos taken + an engagement photo shoot the day after. Both were tremendous experiences and Dimitris was incredibly professional and so easy to work with and talk to throughout the shoot. The photos all came out amazing! Beautifully shoot and very unique. He chose amazing background scenery in all photos and obviously has a perfect eye for where / how to stand. I cannot recommend this service enough. My fiancé and I loved interacting with Dimitris and his instructors for each photo were easily followed (and again—they came out amazing). If you plan a proposal (ours was on a gorgeous hill overlooking the Acropolis, as recommended by Dimitris) or just a regular photo shoot with a significant other or friends/ solo, i cannot recommended this service enough!! Perfect experience and perfect photos!! Thanks again Dimitris!! Will be sure to use you should we ever return to Athens and recommend to all family/ friends!
Absolutely great experience. It was our first time doing professional photo shooting and Dimitris made is absolutely easy for us, guide us with the pose and want us to be us at the same time. The communication was great. Most importantly the final photos was ABSOLUTELY amazing. Thank you a lot Dimitris!
We had a gorgeous evening, thank you for the beautiful photo set, we remembered this beautiful day because I was proposed to. And the photos turned out very warm and soulful!
I'm very thankful for amazing photos and that I had the possibility to work with Dimitris who is professional excellent photographer. I can only recommend him because he knows exactly how to find the best places and conditions for an unforgettable photoshooting. He is also very easy type, flexible, creative and friendly. Thank you for nice vibes, athmosphere and for all of your advices Dimitris for making the best pictures!
I originally scheduled a photo shoot with someone else on airbnb and they cancelled on me last minute but thankfully I was able to find Dimitris. Takis did my photo shoot and he is an actual photographer who told me how to pose and fixed my hair and clothes to make sure my pictures were perfect. He was very nice and asked me what kinds of pictures I wanted. I just finished the photoshoot so I havent gotten the pictures back yet but he showed me some previews on his camera and they looked amazing I am updating my review because I just got the photos back (2 days) and they are way better than Ithought they would be. Listen to Takis, he knows what he is doing. I'm not use to getting my picture taken often and so some of the poses seemed awkward to me but they turned out amazing. So glad I thought to document my trip professionally and really glad I booked with Dimitris' team!I originally scheduled a photo shoot with someone else on airbnb and they cancelled on me last minute but thankfully I was able to find Dimitris.

My SO and I found Dimitris through a google search as we were looking for a photographer to take some maternity photos for us during my visit to Greece. He got back to us very quickly to set up a shoot and even worked with us after having to do a same day reschedule and being late during our time slot due to unexpected traffic once we were finally able to take the photos. He even brought along a videographer to make our moment really special. I truly enjoyed the experience and also learning the history of the photos sites we visited as we walked through Athens with him. We got our photos back quickly and they are absolutely stunning. I would definitely recommend him to anyone living or just visiting Greece who would like to have some memorable and beautiful photos to take home with them. We look forward to using him again in the future.
I reached out to Dimitri to help plan a surprise proposal in Athens! From the start he was extremely warm, professional, and helpful to answer all of our questions. He had just the right spot for beautiful photos with all of Athens behind us! My now fiancee had no idea they were there until it was time to have our photoshoot afterwards. Dimitri even brought his friend, resulting in an impressive number of gorgeous shots from many different angles. Based on what we asked for and paid for, Dimitry consistently went above and beyond to over-deliver with his work! We couldn't be happier working with him and his team!! Thank you, Dimitri!!!
Dimitris is an absolute true professional and we are happy to have engaged his services in Athens! He was really responsive over email and text, spoke really good English and was especially engaging and efficient during the surprise shoot. It was a special day of ours and he captured it beautifully. We can't recommend him enough! If you're looking for a photography tour or have wish to have a photoshoot done or want to have a surprise proposal like we did, have no hesitation! - Junda & Leah
We were lucky to get Dimosthensis as our photographer for one hour photo session in Oia(Santorini). It was last minute booking through Athen photo tour by phone. The staff was very efficient and helpful to arrange a photographer for us even one hour before the photo session. We just need to communicate by whatsapp, and we were given the photographer's whatsapp and he appeared to our hotel on time even in short notice. Our photographer Dimosthensis Christopoulos was so friendly and enthusiastic, We can sense that he is really professional, he does the job with passion, We love all his photos and we highly recommend Dimosthensis if you are looking for a photographer in Santorini. He is also very polite and always smile,so the photo session was very fun. Thank you so much for making our photoshoot fun and memorable. Regards, J&R
Absolutely loved all my photos that Dimitris took. It was a pleasure working together. He took me to various locations with stunning views to capture the best shots. I wouldn't have found these places on my own. If you find yourself in Greece, and are looking for a photographer look no further. I'm looking forward to visiting Greece again, and when I do I most definitely with be working with Dimitris again.
This was the best use of my time to see as many of the significant sites in Athens and be able to photograph them in a very short window of time. I opted to do the 8-hour walking tour and it did not disappoint. We actually saw many more sites than I expected and with the exception of not going into any museums (I could do that on a separate day), we walked over 24,000 steps, (~10mi/14km) and visited all the spots I had on my list and then some!
My husband and I joined Dimitris for three photo tours (Athens City, Sunrise, and Night Tours) in Athens. We were amazed at the spots he took us to have the best views of the city! We certainly wouldn’t have known to go there by ourselves and avoided some of the crowds. We enjoyed the walks, a bit of history, and the photography tips Dimitris shared with us. He is very professional. We had good email communications before the tours. And during the tours, he gave us good recommendations for local restaurants and other places to visits. Dimitris was always punctual and courteous. We were very happy to have him showed us his city.
We did a private photo tour of Athens with Dimitris. Overall, it was perfect. Dimitris made us feel comfortable while taking our photos - I must say these are the best photos of ourselves and ones that we will cherish forever. Dimitris took us to some of the most picturesque streets and alleys in Athens, which you wont normally get to see in typical guided tours. He also gave us recommendations of decent restaurants and shops, which are quite useful. I highly recommend Dimitris as your personal photographer as he is simply the best.
Dimitris was such a friendly and professional photographer! We had waited until the very last minute to book a honeymoon photoshoot, and he was extremely flexible with us. He met us at a local cafe in Oia, and he guided us through the most romantic and picturesque areas so he could capture some shots. Dimitris is also very knowledgeable about directing his clients with natural poses; my husband and I felt at ease the entire time during our hour-long photoshoot. All of the photos came out so beautiful, and we are so thankful for Dimitris; he's captured so many amazing pictures of our first vacation as a married couple. Also, he got our photos to us in a DAY! Seriously, such a fast turnaround time. We are so impressed and we cannot thank you enough. Also, we were honored to snap a selfie with him afterwards. :) Thank you, Dimitris! You are truly a master at your craft.
I went with Athens Photo Tour for two sessions on the same day. A sunrise session focused on the Acropolis, and a sunset tour that covered most of the key antiquity sites. My guide was Takis. We had two great sessions, I enjoyed it, learned, and found some great shots. Takis was a pleasure to spend the day with. He knows all the sites and angles, and a bit of history too. I had a great day with him, and definitely recommend Athens Photo Tour!!
