Experience Athens with Nikos - Incredible visit to Athens, we did a private tour with Nikos, treated us wonderfully. From the Acropolis to the city center, through a cafeteria and a typical souvlakis restaurant highly recommended, Nikos took us to the ideal places to be able to enjoy Athens to the full with the short time we had. Recommended 200% and thank Nikos for the pleasant experience.

Great spots with Nikos - A great tour with Nikos. This is our second tour with him, and as always, it was incredible. This time we took a cruise, and during our stop in Athens, I didn't hesitate to book him. He showed us the best spots in the city.

Christos made the tour wonderful - We had an amazing trip with Christos. He was so kind and full of information and we learnt so much about Greece. A very safe driver and a very nice man. He gave us water and also some nice book about Greece and postcards too. I was traveling with my elderly parents and the ac was amazing in the car in the heat. A wonderful tour with Christos we highly recommend him.

Perfect Day! - Christos was the very best of guides to help us enjoy our one day in Athens. He shared the views of the Acropolis from heights and perspectives that took our breath away. He helped us feel like we were with a friend who wanted to share the city he lives in and loves. When traffic delays caused us to miss the changing of the guard, no problem! He just looped us back in later in the day. It never felt rushed and we came away, hoping that every future tour we booked would be as good as this one.
