Dimi is an excellent tour guide - We had the best experience today in our Athens & Acropolis Highlights private tour. Dimi was a very professional and knowledgeable guide. He explained so much about Greek history and culture. He tailored to tour to our needs and interests. I appreciate him very much. I would definitely recommend taking a private tour in a beautiful air conditioned vehicle. It is a good investment and covers a lot of Athens without wasting any time.

Excellent tour and communication with Olive Sea Travel- Private Tour of Athens sites and Acropolis - We had an absolutely amazing experience with Olive Sea Travel! From start to finish, everything was so well organized, and we couldn’t have asked for a better driver than Panos.
Panos was incredible — so friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable, professional, and punctual. He was always on time and made sure everything ran smoothly, allowing us to make the most of our time. We were especially impressed with how much we were able to see while still enjoying each site without feeling rushed.
The sites were absolutely amazing, and the information Panos shared along the way made the experience even more memorable. His knowledge really added so much to our tour!
Communication was also excellent, both with Panos and with Gianna at Olive Sea Travel who coordinated our booking. We always felt informed, taken care of, and confident that everything was being handled. She replied fast.

Great excursion - Our guide was fantastic! Stephanos was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide. His attention to detail was on point and provided us with lots of history on Ancient Greece that we either never knew or forgot. Would highly recommend him for a future tour
