Guide #2136

Welcome to Athens, Greece! I'm Vassilios, a born-and-raised Athenian and a professional tour driver since 2004. With 470+ reviews and a 4.9★ rating on ToursByLocals, I've welcomed travellers from all over the world and shown them the best of Athens and Greece at their own pace. What you can expect: • Private tours in a modern, smoke-free, air-conditioned Mercedes: a sedan for 1–3 guests or a Mercedes minivan for groups of 4–6 • Pickup from your hotel, Airbnb or cruise port, and free airport pickup and drop-off on my layover tours • A flexible route built around your interests, with time for photos, local food and hidden corners most tourists miss • Day trips beyond Athens, such as Cape Sounion and Ancient Corinth My school, friends and family are all here, so I know the city inside out. Along the way I'll share stories of our history, mythology and everyday life, and point you to the local restaurants Athenians actually love. You'll save time, skip the stress of taxis and maps, and see the real Athens. Please note: I am a professional, licensed tour driver and tour operator certified by the Greek National Tourism Organization, not a licensed guide, so I cannot guide inside archaeological sites or museums. I provide commentary, videos and historical insights in the vehicle. Licensed guides are optional, at an extra cost (approx. €300 for 2–3 hours) and subject to availability. I look forward to welcoming you to Athens!

    Simply stated, Vassilios was extremely professional! On time, very informative, and always in the right spot at the right time. We appreciated his lunch recommendation. My wife accidentally left her sweater in his car. Vassilios dropped it back to our Hotel the next morning. Wonderful day in Athens!!

    Vassilios V. is an excellent guide! Very personable and charming, and extremely knowledgable, he brought us to see so many of the highlights of Athens. There was a good mixture of being outside (e.g. exploring the Acropolis and Mount Lycabettus) and indoors (e.g. National Archeological Museum) on a pretty hot Summer day. Our drive to see the sites around town was quite...
