Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We had an excellent tour with Ioannis. He showed us so much that we would have missed walking around on our own. He was very knowledgeable and knew a lot about the city in which he has lived for many years. He was lovely company and we didn't feel rushed. He was very happy to show us what we wanted to see. We were a group of 4 girls having a weekend away and we came away feeling like we saw a true side of Athens. Thankyou Ioannis."
"John (Ioannis) was a wonderful guide, full of energy and enthusiasm. He had prepared well to tailor our experience for my 16 year old granddaughter’s interest in mythology and philosophy, keeping her captivated and engaged for the entire afternoon. We finished with a visit to the changing of the guard. Ioannis had served as a guard, and was able to give us an insider’s perspective. We marched in right behind the arriving guards which was a special treat, and meant we had a front row viewing position for the ceremony (No one but a local would have known you could do this) It was a completely fascinating afternoon- a real highlight! "
"Costas was an excellent guide. He was a great story teller and painted a picture of Ancient Greece that was captivating. His knowledge was impressive and there was no question we asked that he couldn't answer. I highly recommend him for both the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum. "

"Costas was a wealth of knowledge. I think we could have enjoyed his company and learned from him for many more hours. He taught us so much about the Acropolis past and present. He is a wonderful guide and this was the most educational tour we had here in Athens. Highly recommended."
"Our group of 4 had a perfect tour of the neighborhoods and history of Athens with our Withlocals guide, Alexandros. He communicated with us ahead of our tour and made sure to cover many highlights without repeating things that we had already seen. His indepth knowledge, flexibility, pre-tour communication, and personal touch made this tour a true highlight of our time in Athens. "
"Ioannis gave us an experience of Athens above and beyond what we had expected. He is a charming - thoughtful and an immensely talented and informed Guide - who just loves his City - his culture and everything Greek. We were entertained - informed - surprised and amazed at all he was able to show us. He was extremely generous with his time and very comfortable in his surroundings - we were so pleased that our first evening in Athens was spent in the company of Ioannis - Thank you - you are an incredible Guide and an amazing ambassador for your City and Country."
"Eleni was awesome! True local vibe with an informative off the beaten path tour. We enjoyed her perspective and informative explanations. Definitely the way to kick off a stay in Athens, we wish we had taken the tour earlier in our stay. We spent the next day retracing our steps and digging in deeper!! Do it!! "
"We loved our tour with Kostas. He's so knowledgeable about Greek (& world) history as well as Greek mythology, we learned so many new things & came away with a richer understanding & deeper appreciation for Greek history & culture. He is very kind, professional, prompt & reliable. I would highly recommend booking w/Kosta, especially for those who are history &/or mythology buffs. "
"Yorgos combined his love of history, Greek culture and compassion for the city Athens into a wonderful tour. His relaxed and friendly style made learning about Athens fun. He responded to all our questions so we were able to get a feeling for life in Athens both ancient and modern. He also adapted the tour to respond to our personal interests. Highly recommend this tour and Yorgos as a guide."
"We booked the tour to the Acropolis with Arianna. She was excellent!! Patient, very informative and she has a wonderful dry sense of humor. She is very knowledgeable about Greek history and proud of its contribution to society. She made the Acropolis come alive. I highly recommend her!"
