Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
" Excellent historical tour of Athens! Nikos is extremely knowledgeable of all aspects - social, political, cultural - of Greece and beyond. Very personable, always kept us comfortable in shade when possible, answered all our questions with fascinating knowledge. "
"We feel incredibly privileged to have found Costas. He was generous with his time and guidance. Our family was enthralled with his tour of both Parthenon and Agora. I cannot recommend Costas highly enough - he is perfect."
"As usual my clients loved their experience with Makram. I will definitely be booking him again."
"Markella took a group of 5 of us on a 3 hour tour of the Acropolis, Parthenon and the Acropolis museum. Markella is very knowledgeable of all periods of Greek history and has lots of stories to tell about the Parthenon and surrounding buildings and how the history links with the buildings and the archeological finds. She covered the Greek gods, the battle of Marathon, Persian wars, the Spartans and ancient Athenians, Roman emperor Hadrian and much more. Really interesting. If you are looking for a private tour, you could not do better. Thank you"
"Ioannis was informative and engaging, the 3 hours flew by. We saw everything we wanted to and so much more, only a local could show you these things. It was the perfect start to our Greek trip."
"We had the most amazing day with Markella! She was incredibly knowledgable, professional and kind. Our whole day was measurably improved because of her education and guidance. I would HIGHLY recommend you book her for your Athens sightseeing. We could have never had such a productive and enjoyable day without a private guide. It money WELL spent! She was most excellent!"
"Markella was excellent! Very friendly and knowledgeable and great making things interesting for our kids. They were flagging a bit by the time of the museum but she took us on a quick highlights tour which was great."
"The most amazing tour of Athens with a knowledgeable, interesting and kind person. Thanks for a fabulous time!"
"Evanthia was a wonderful tour guide. She was enthusiastic and extremely knowledgeable. We had a wonderful three hours with her on the most perfect evening to see the acropolis in the museum."
"From the minute we met Alex we felt welcomed and knew we were in the right hands. Alex is knowledgeable and his passion for the Acropolis and Greek history is infectious. He had both of my boys intrigued and catered the tour towards them, weaving the tales of Greek mythology throughout the relics in the museum and then connected this through to our exploration of the archaeological site at the Acropolis itself. He was friendly and patient with my boys, allowing for multiple bathroom and water breaks for them too. My husband and I have toured the Acropolis previously, but it was no where near as magical as being guided by Alex. We had such a wonderful time and would highly recommend Alex to anyone wanting to experience Athens with both a friend and a guide. "
