Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Our tour to Cape Sounio was a wonderful blend of natural beauty and cultural insight. The drive along the Athenian Riviera was absolutely stunning, with sweeping views of the coastline and the Aegean Sea. Ioannis offered insightful and engaging commentary throughout the drive. His deep knowledge of Greek history and mythology was impressive, but what made it even more special was the personal connection he shared with the area (thank you for sharing with us!!). The temple itself perched above the sea is beautiful and the view from the cliffs is spectacular! "
"John was very pleasant. We had him for 3 days and he was very nice. We would have preferred that the tour had more substance…more visits to historical sites and more explanations about the history etc."
"My husband and I spent 2 fantastic days with Nikos - the first to visit Delphi and the next to visit Sounio. We had already spent 2 weeks touring ancient sites in Turkey and the Cyclades with very knowledgeable guides so one would think we were saturated with ancient history. On the contrary, Nikos brought all the ancient history alive and made us feel like we had gone back in time. His knowledge of archaeology and history is impressive and he is a current day philosopher as well. We discussed current day Greek life intertwined with the lives of the mythical Greek gods. Very soon, we had a new friend."
" It was amazing day for us .We really enjoyed his personal and professional approach. It was a wonderful day we spent together. We got to know Athens, and it was very interesting. You are a very special person."
"Ioannis was a wonderful guide. He is very knowledgeable about this history of Greece. He took up on the Cape Sounio tour. Ioannis was prompt, friendly, passionate about Greece. He truly went out of his was to meet any requests we had. He chose a wonderful lunch spot for us along the coast, which had the freshest seafood and a stunning view. He made sure we had a wonderful table, which was kind gesture. He found us a perfect spot along the coast free from the crowds, we went on our tour on a Greek holiday, so the beaches were unusually busy. I highly recommend Ioannis for any tour you choose."
"We had a wonderful day tour with Nikos. We came in on a cruise ship and Nikos made it so easy for us picking us up (with luggage) at our disembarkation terminal. His knowledge of the area, of all of Greece and the region, was perfect for us. We enjoyed his sharing. We loved all of the stops on this tour: Poseidon Temple, Silver Mines area, ancient amphitheater, picture taking stops along the drive, and lunch was delicious. We highly recommend Nikos as a guide of choice with, With Locals."
"John was a great guide and fun companion for my trip to the Temple of Poseidon. He really knows and understands Greek history and showed me so many interesting places along the way, that I never would have seen by myself. "
"We really enjoyed our trip to Cape Sounio and the Temple of Poseidon with Nikos. We arranged to be picked up at our cruise terminal and dropped off at our hotel in the afternoon. All of our communications and arrangements went smoothly and we had a fantastic day. Nikos is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and we greatly enjoyed his commentary and company. And he was very accommodating to two senior ladies and our preferences as to timing, pace, etc. We highly recommend Nikos to anyone looking for a tour of the area!"
"Thomas was great! Apart from being great company for our afternoon tour, he was highly knowledgeable and knew how to adapt his delivery for myself and my partner. Even more importantly he knew how to relate all the information to our 13 year old autistic son (who is very interested in Greek mythology). We would highly recommend Thomas!"
"Nikos was engaging and a earth of information. We enjoyed every minute of our trip with him."
