“A day in the country - Our driver Panos was fantastic. It was really nice getting out of the city and having some time with just us. Panos was not a professional guide however, he was very knowledgeable and provided us with volumes of information about Paul’s journey and the local area. The walk up to Acrocorinth was strenuous but well worth it. The layers of history are truly amazing. While up there, don’t miss the small Church with beautiful frescos. This was a great day. Well worth it. Thank you Panos!” - Reviewed on 2024-12-18

“Amazing private tour - Amazing from start to finish. Nik, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the ministry of St Paul in Greece. We were able to go and step on the areas where St Paul preached and the experience was surreal. We were actually in places that we can only read in the Bible. It was great to do this with a private tour because our time of exploring were good. We didn’t feel rushed. Nik was very patient from the time he picked us up from the hotel until the last leg of the tour. The car was also well cleaned and AC was good as it was quite hot outside. Nik and together with the company Colours of Greece are highly recommended. We felt very safe and well looked after.” - Reviewed on 2025-04-21
