Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We had a great day out with Thomas to visit not only Nafplio, but also the sites of Mykines, Ancient Corinth, the castle of Akrokorinth, the Canal of Corinth, the world's oldest bridge, and last but not least the Ancient city of Epidaurus. Although it was raining the whole day, Thomas went out of his way to make us feel comfortable and he was very knowledgeable on several historical topics. We went for lunch in Nafplio in a typical Greek tavern where we enjoyed the perfect Saganaki. On our trip back home we discovered we shared the same taste for 80's music and he treated us to the perfect DJ-set. We will definitely contact Thomas again when we're back in Athens. Efcharisto poli !"
"Thank you Dennis for a most interesting introduction to Athens. We did the late afternoon tour. The ebikes were good, we opted for helmets. The route Dennis Chose felt safe, he always indicated where we were going. His Information was interessting and informative especially linking it to modern buildings, his Expertise. I can highly recommend the bike tour. Given that it is mid- October, I should have packed a jacket as it cooled off quite a bit. "
"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!

"We had a wonderful day with Nikos, who is an excellent guide and a very nice person. He is incredibly intelligent and shared so much history with us. He was so accommodating and very pleasant to be with. We had a great experience and highly recommend you take a tour with Nico. He was amazing and gave all five people in our group a great experience!"
"We had a three hour bike tour with Raya of the Athens city center, and she was an excellent tour guide. She is an archaeologist and was able to explain things in great detail. She took us off the tourist beaten path so we saw many things that most people would miss. We highly recommend a bike tour with Raya!"
"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."
"We did 2 tours with Nikos back-to-back. We went to Cape Sounio and Delphi. Both trips were amazing and beyond my expectations. Nikos was a fantastic guide. He accommodated all of our needs/requests and provided us with a wealth of information and history. I would book another tour with Nikos when I return to Greece. "
"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. "
"We had an absolutely fantastic experience today on a tour with Nikos through Athens to Marsthon. Beautiful area outside of the city center. So much history to see! Informed, knowledgeable, detailed patient and willing to make adjustments to our itinerary on the fly as he came to better understand our interests. Probably one of the best tours we’ve ever been on in our travels. Highly recommend Nikos!"
