Private Tour Of Athens, Cape Sounio, Temple Of Poseidon & Riviera

It was an amazing day! Hercules knew everything about the stops. We were going to hire a guide but honestly with him we didn’t need one. He took us to an amazing restaurant… best meal in Athens.. loved it

Giannis was an amazing guide. We hired this tour for just the driver/guide. It was the perfect balance of self guided adventure and light guided information. We were so glad we took Giannis’ recommendation for lunch.

We had an incredible time exploring Athens and visiting the Temple of Poseidon with Ancient Greece Tours! Our guide was fantastic—knowledgeable, engaging, and especially wonderful with our students. She did an amazing job bringing the history to life while also helping us connect more deeply with the local culture, traditions, and cuisine. The entire experience was seamless and memorable, and we came away with a much greater appreciation for Greece, it's beauty, and its rich history. We would absolutely recommend Ancient Greece Tours to anyone looking for an exceptional and meaningful experience in Greece!

This was an excellent private tour. Highly recommend!

George was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Athens & eveything he showed us. He took us to one of the best local spots for lunch & really put in the effort to make this the highlight of our trip. Would recommend to anyone who’s looking to explore Athens!

Giannis was a terrific driver and guide for our trip down the coastline to the Temple of Poseidon. He shared interesting information along the route and we loved the unexpected stop to see the beautiful lake. We are so glad that we got to see the coastline which was such a different perspective compared to the big city of Athens. Highlight of the trip was our sunset dinner by the shore on the way home at a long term family restaurant. Tried scorpion fish for the first time and it was outstanding. Would definitely recommend Giannis for future tours!

We had a fun filled day! Our tour guide and driver were wonderful and very informative e about everything g we did! Well worth it to see Athens in a day!

Fantastic day. Peter was our host and it really was like spending a day with an old friend. Very knowledgeable and friendly and nothing was a bother. Anything that could have been done to make the day better was done. We were never rushed and always guided but Peter was very conscious of giving us our own space to explore and enjoy the experience which we appreciated. Would thoroughly recommend it to anyone. There are slightly cheaper tours but if you’re going to all the effort to get to Athens and really want to see Delphi and Thermopylae then choose this tour and ask for Peter.

My wife and I visited Athens in Aug 2025, from México, it was our first time in the city, so we wanted to make sure that we had a nice and enjoyable first day, to have a glance of the MUST temples and things to know, our driver Spyros outdid himself, he was beyond amazing, very friendly, extremely knowledgeable and had a beautiful attitude ✨ Spyros arrived in perfect time, drove carefully always, he was very kind every step of the way!

The views were amazing and our tour driver Giannis was incredibly knowledgeable and super personable. Will recommend to friends!

I've been on this tour twice and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it! You'll visit all the must-sees in Athens!!

Our family had a fantastic private tour of Athens and Cape Sounion! The guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and great with our kids, making history come alive in a fun way. We loved exploring the Acropolis and ended the day with a breathtaking sunset at the Temple of Poseidon. Comfortable transport, excellent service, and unforgettable memories—highly recommended!

We had an unforgettable private tour of Classical Athens and Cape Sounion last December as a family of 4 from the USA. Our driver Mihalis was exceptional—extremely knowledgeable, professional, and engaging. He shared fascinating insights about Athens’ rich history, making every stop even more meaningful. Highlights included the Acropolis, the serene Athens Riviera, and the breathtaking Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounio where the sunset views were just magical. The tour was perfectly paced, allowing us to truly enjoy each moment. We highly recommend this experience with this company to anyone visiting Athens—it’s an absolute must!

George was so kind and accommodating. He was a great tour guide, sharing all sorts of fun facts and history of the area. He took us to some really special places! Thank you George!!

The title says private tour, but what it should have stated was "entertaining driver will take you sites, then drop you off to explore sites on your own". The driver did not enter the sites with us, direct us to unique areas or provide us with studied information. George (nice guy) took us from site to site, where we had to buy our own tickets, not included in the tour price, and explore on our own. It was a very expensive taxi service. Not what I was expecting for a "private tour".

This was the second time we took this tour while in Greece. Eirini was such a good tour guide the first time, we booked her again for a second tour. She was able to customize the tour so we saw things we didn’t see on the first tour. Eirini is a great tour host and I can’t say enough good about her. She is friendly, accommodating and provided excellent recommendations for our onward journey in Greece. You can’t go wrong with this tour, especially if you’re lucky enough to have Eirini as your guide.

This tour was amazing! The ability to customize the tour to our abilities and interests was great. Eirini was a great guide and provided us with an awesome day that included a beautiful drive to various ruins, seeing the changing of the guards, and she even waited while we had a bite to eat at the sea. I highly recommend this tour and if you’re lucky enough to have Eirini as your guide you can be sure it will be an awesome tour!

Beautiful sites. Saw Athens at night with tour and once our guide found that out I think we skipped a few things. Drive was beautiful along the coastline. Was slightly upset that we were offered a lunch stop at a seaside fresh fish restaurant and paid over 125 dollars for fresh fish, vegetables, and iced tea. Food was OK but rather pricey for a lunch stop. Driver seems preoccupied with multiple phone calls and talked on phone much of trip. I guess we got what we paid for but was slightly disappointed.

Both the administrative support before the tour (George A) and the guide (George B) were excellent!! We were able to experience the ruins and museum with pre-booked tickets, enjoyed a fantastic traditional lunch and were at the Parliament just in time for the guard change. George B also picked us up right at our cruise port and took us back safely and timely.Greatly recommended.

Giannis started our tour with a warm smile and firm handshake. I knew immediately he would be a super guide. He was on time and drove us in a beautiful car! Typically I’m indifferent to cars but this drive felt luxurious! He offered to take us for coffee! This was an unexpected thrill because we saw a local coffee shop that was vibrant and had delicious coffee! He is a natural communicator who is not only interesting but very informative! I highly suggest requesting him as your driver and guide. He explained local culture and history! I felt like he really cared! We finished off the evening tour at a seaside local restaurant. It was a magical time! He gave us a relaxing, fun, and exciting tour! I can’t wait to return to Greece and would not hesitate to use this company. Thank you so much!

George was very nice, however the tour was shown as ‘private tour’ and ‘skip the line’! He basically just drove us around (a taxi service) no history offered or skip any line, sorry to report

Amazing! Our guide Tas was incredibly friedly with a great knowledge of the country. VIP service we recommend

I had the pleasure of visiting Athens and Cape Sounión with them. The service was exclusive and fantastic. I thank them for the lovely experience!

The tour was definitely worth the money. We saw everything important in and around Athens within a day. Everyone was super friendly and helpful and gave us insider tips. Can only recommend it and would turn to Ancient Greece Tours again for similar tours.
