Stress-free opportunity to enjoy Athens' history - I cannot say enough good things about our tour experience and our guide, Elias. I cannot imaging trying to see all we were able to see on our own. He was ready to meet us at every stop, navigated the traffic with ease and made impromptu stops along the way to give more context and historical perspective. It really tied the tour together. Don't hesitate to take this tour, it really took the stress out of trying to see all there is to see.

Incredibly good time while learning a lot about Athens and Greece. - We were so glad we booked this private tour of Athens considering we only have a few days here. Odysseas from Greece Athens Tours managed to take us to many of the cities most famous historical sights along with lesser known places along the way. His knowledge of Greek/Athens history is very thorough and we learned a lot while having a good time too! He took us to a local Greek restaurant for an incredible lunch, some wine and ouzo and we left feeling thoroughly introduced to Greek culture. If you only have 3-5 days in the Athens area this is the way to go!
