Best way to see Athens in a day! - By far the best way to see Athens in a day. Our tour driver was awesome. He took us to all the best places and was mindful of some of our mobility issues. Stopped for an excellent lunch as well. Highly recommend!

A Wonderful Way to see Athens!! - From our pick up at the port to our last stop the experience was wonderful. Carlos was very well versed in the history, geography and general knowledge of Athens.
We were 4 adults all with different interests. A couple with ambulatory issues. Carlos dropped 2 of us off at one point and while they were exploring took 2 of us to another to take photos. He was beyond accommodating. Thank You Carlos for a memorable day in Athens!! Cathy, MJ, Maria and Mike
