I am an official guide, born and raised in Athens. I grew up surrounded by the layers of history that define this city. Today, I am an officially licensed Tourist Guide certified by the Hellenic Ministry of Culture and Tourism and a graduate in History. Guiding all over Greece for the past 25 years has been an unforgettable journey for me and it still is! My passion for culture, history, archaeology and religion in all its forms hailed me to travel all around the world and visit places far overseas. It led me to this wonderful profession which gives me the pleasure to show my country, to explore it again and again and to keep rediscovering it! If you wish to explore Athens by strolling around it's lovely neighbourhoods , witnessing the excitement of a fast-moving metropolis, or being immersed in history paths I will organise it for you and try to give you the best travel experience and make it as personal and unique as possible. The tour can be customised to your preferences. I look forward to meeting you and sharing with you the beauty of my country. I'm sure you will enjoy it as much as I do!!

Join me in this tour and I will try to reveal the Golden Age to you. About Athens, and its history , its people and its legends! About this city , that became the cradle of the ancient world and introduced to the world Democracy. About literature and philosophy that flourished and produced all the great ideas later adapted in the Western world. At the same time we will be able to drive through this very modern city that became the capital of a new born country in the 19th century although it was inhabited from the mists of time!
