Well, worth the trip - We had a wonderful time. George was a great driver and he gave us lots of good information about Greece and about Corinth. We loved our time there and in the drive as well. The sight of an ancient Corinth and the museum was a highlight.

Relaxing trip to Corinth - We had a great trip to Corinth. Our driver, Anthony was knowledgeable and able to answer any questions we had about this beautiful area of Greece. It was low key and relaxing. Exactly what we were looking for.

Great climb up the Acrocorinth - We very much wanted to visit the Acrocorinth. That is spectacular, but you need to be in decent shape - there is a fairly challanging slope at points but the view is worth it. We asked our dirver to skip the canal and head there first so as to avoid some of the heat. He was very accomodating. Excellent driver, knowledgable and pleasant. The canal is worth a 3 minute stop, but not much more - ancient corinth is not in great shape though the very small museum had some interesting exhibits and information about corinth. So glad we stopped at both ancient corinth and the canal, but climbing the acrocorinth was what made it worthwhile. The tour company was easy to deal with, very nice car, very nice driver.

Trip to old Corinth - The trip to Corinth was so worth it! Our driver spoke English very well and was able to answer all of our questions. The drive out and back is beautiful. If you need to get out of Athens for a day, this is a perfect spot to get away.

You won’t regret picking this company for any tour they have! - We booked a second tour with Theo, after our first tour with him was so amazing. My husband and I saw everything we wanted to see. The drive to the Corinth was awesome. He is so knowledgeable and made sure we didn’t miss any of the sites along the way. We then made our way to the mountain to hike to the Corinth Acropolis (I think that’s what it’s called). He waited while we hiked to the top, and then took us to a family owned restaurant right on the sea. Hands down the best tour company you can choose, with an amazing wonderful guide. Thank you Theo from Arianna and Bill.
