I've been a licensed Greek tourist guide since 1987 and speak fluent English, French, Italian and Greek. As a licensed guide, I am able to accompany you into the monuments and museums. I'm looking forward to sharing with you my knowledge, love and respect for the Greek heritage that is so abundant in Athens. I know all the hidden spots only native Greeks know. Please join me for an unforgettable tour. I am a professional fully licensed tour guide since 1987 for the whole of Greece (only licensed guides are permitted to guide in archeological sites in Greece). I guide in the above languages fluently!

I booked the half day city tour with Acropolis visit for my 73-year-old mom. Diana was very accommodating, friendly, and knowledgeable. My mom was traveling by herself and Diana communicated well with her to ensure pickup from a busy airport was as smooth as possible. Would highly recommend for future tours.

We had an excellent tour of Athens with Diana. She was extremely knowledgeable and informative throughout, and the combination of touring by car and on foot worked very well. We were able to cover a lot of ground, see many of the city’s main sights and neighborhoods, and come away with a really good sense of Athens in a relatively short period of time. We finished with a guided visit to the Acropolis, where Diana’s knowledge and explanations added enormously to the experience. She was friendly, engaging and very easy to spend time with. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would happily recommend Diana to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and personable guide to Athens.

Diana was extremely well versed in all aspects of the history of the places we visited. She was also personable and fun to be with for the entirety of the tour. We have toured a lot of countries and I can say that Diana is one of the best guides we have come across on our travels. Thanks Diana.
