Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"I’ve been to Athens before, but Thomas gave me fresh insights into places I’d been before and introduced me to spots I had never seen. His deep love of history really came through, and he was easy company — friendly, engaging, and with a great sense of pace. A thoroughly enjoyable way to experience the city."
"We enjoyed our tour with Dimitris so much. First of all you will eat and eat and eat and always be happy with what you’re eating. We really appreciated the family run and independent and specialty places he took us for traditional and delicious Greek food. We also enjoyed his company. He was happy to answer questions about the culture and society. "
"Makram was kind and knowledgeable. He shows us many interesting places that we otherwise would never have found on our own. "
"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 asked for off the beaten track and Voula really delivered. We walked through neighborhoods that we would have never found on our own and were exposed to great street graffiti art. Voula was able to explain how Athens has grown and changed over the years - some for the better and some for the not so great. She knows Athens ! "
"Filled with Mythology stories to help explain why things were where they are"
"Spectacular! We saw and experienced Athens truly through a local who shared parts of the city we would have never seen! Ioannis was so knowledgeable, friendly, engaging, and so kind! "
"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."

"We had an a amazing day with Irini. First off she customized her normal route to accommodate our hotel location and I’m so glad we did. we explored a local neighborhood which she new very well - Koukaki. it was so fun and she is very knowledgeable about the history of Athens and the neighborhood. The food was delicious and plentiful trying all of the Greek traditional foods. I would highly recommend Irini if you are looking for a great food tour and some local knowledge. "
