Excellent half day touring Athens with driver Andres! - Andres was knowledgeable and clear in his directions. He spoke very good English. He knew just where to park and was flexible in his arrangements. The mercedes E class car was clean and comfortable. Excellent to have a local drive you around!

Perfectly executed tour - We were in Greece for only a short period of time. Andreas and his wife created and planned a very efficient itinerary for us to see and experience as much as possible. It was the perfect balance of guiding us on the history and amazing architecture to giving us enough time to ourselves, to explore on our own. Highly recommend this company on any of their tours!

Your inside people in Athens! - Had a lovely experience both during the tour with Andreas as well as with planning and hotel transfers working with Marina and Konstantinos. Andreas was very knowledgeable and personalized our experience very well. We hit all the major sights within a short time and felt we had a complete experience despite our short stay. Highly highly recommend the team for all your transportation and touring needs in Athens.

This is the tour you want ! - We took a tour in Athens yesterday, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Upon confirming our purchase, Marina immediately reached out to ensure all our needs were met for the tour. I shared what we wanted to see and do, and she connected us with Konstantinos, our guide for the day. He was incredibly knowledgeable, showing us both the well-known and hidden gems of Athens, while providing detailed explanations at every stop. We enjoyed our time with him far more than we anticipated, and I highly recommend him and his company for anyone looking for a top-notch tour in Athens.

Tour Athens the way you want! - Andreas was a wonderful guide. He was watching the weather so that we would not be rained on while visiting the Acropolis. He tailored the tour to our interests and even added a trip to Lycabettus after sunset which turned out to be amazing!! He also dropped us off at the restaurant where we had reservations. Highly recommend this tour!!

This tour has a deserved 5 Stars for a short visit to Athens! - There are a lot of potential tours on the 'tripadvisor' website, but this one was very positive...We were a family group of seven over three generations and we all had a wonderful tour. We were able to schedule our day and enjoy the convenience of personal attention, and the air-conditioning in the 36C temperatures! Highly recommended, this was a highlight in our fantastic voyage, Cheers!

A must do on your trip to Athens! - Our tour with Andreas was the highlight of our 10 day trip to Greece! As a native Athenian he was a wealth of information about the history. He knew all the spots and the closest way to get us to them. One of our party of 5 is disabled and in a wheelchair and he made it to where she was easily included which is a big feat in Europe. He was kind and compassionate, felt like family. The van was super comfortable for us all. Great communication! Do yourself a favor and see Athens through Andreas’ eyes you won’t be disappointed!

Fabulous half day tour with Andreas!! - Outstanding tour! Andreas was an excellent guide!! It was the best of having both a knowledgeable and interesting tour guide combined with the ability to explore on our own. Andreas took us to the various, incredible sites (including the Acropolis, with tickets) and gave us information and historical background. Then we explored on our own. We communicated through WhatsApp to see if we needed more time or were ready to meet at the car. I highly recommend this tour!
