Highly recommend! Alex is the GOAT - My wife and I went on this tour and spending a relaxing day riding through the Greek countryside ALONE was worth every penny! The views are breathtaking and never ending! The best part was our guide Alex. He was incredible! He was super personable, friendly, spoke great English, and let us explore each stop on our own. While not an “official tour guide”, he gave us all the info we needed before each stop then allowed us to explore on our own, at our own pace, while he sat back and let us take it in. No lectures, no groups, no overbearing history lesson in broken English. Just the right amount of history and direction to let us enjoy the moment. While Thermopylae is VERY underwhelming as an attraction, the rest of the day more than made up for it. If you’re questioning whether you should do this tour or not, stop and just book it. You won’t regret it.

What a beautiful site - There wasn't too much to see at Thermopylae but it was worth the stop. Delphi was amazing. It was beautiful and the mountains were majestic. Driver was great too.

Perfection - If you want a perfect day ask for Alex. He was the perfect private tour guide. He was beyond knowledgeable. He didn’t talk too much and didn’t talk too little. He stopped at all the perfect viewing sights and his driving was impeccable!! We highly recommend this tour.

Outstanding tour! - This was an amazing experience! The tour itself and the stops and the countryside were amazing. We learned so much history and everything was on our timeline, with no rush. Our driver George was outstanding! He knew so much and took us to get photo stops. We could not have asked for better. We knew it would be a small group experience but it ended up just the two of us and George in a very comfortable car.

Highlight of our vacation - Alex was incredible. He didn't give a canned history pitch. We had a real dialogue and he answered all kinds of questions about Greece. Delphi is such a wonderful place. If we ever come back, we will be booking with LS tours.
