Warm greetings from Athens, Greece! My name is Dimitris, and I am a Professional Driver and Tour Operator certified by the Greek National Tourism Organization in Athens since 2014 (license number 0207E70000780001). Please note that I am not certified to accompany you inside the historical sites. Originally born in Brunswick, New Jersey, I spent the first five years of my life in the beautiful town of Old Bridge before relocating to Greece. Throughout my life, I have developed a deep love for Greece, its magical places, and the captivating stories that have shaped its rich history. In my travels, both within Greece and abroad, I am constantly seeking authentic experiences and avoiding tourist traps. My goal is to share the beauty of my country with you, provide insights into Greek mythology and both modern and ancient history, showcase breathtaking scenery, and lead you to my favorite places to indulge in authentic Greek cuisine. Above all, my aim is to make you feel at home and create a memorable experience. As a person who easily gets bored, I constantly embrace new technological advancements to stay ahead of the market. Due to my limitation as a licensed guide, I utilize drone footage and 3D applications to offer a virtual journey through history before visiting the sites. In 2024, I plan to launch an app for smart devices, featuring audio commentary from professional licensed guides, augmented reality capabilities, and vivid reconstructions of major sites, further enhancing your independent experience. Now that you have a better understanding of who I am, I invite you to join me for an honest, personal, and informative experience in Athens. Contact me today and let's embark on a journey to live your myth in Greece! I am a professional Tour Operator and Travel Agent, licensed by the Greek Ministry of Tourism to independently organize and conduct excursions. With this accreditation, I am authorized to ensure the highest standards of service and professionalism throughout the entire tour experience. As a certified and licensed operator, you can trust in my expertise and capabilities to provide you with an exceptional and enriching travel experience in Greece. Although I am unable to accompany you inside the monuments due to licensing regulations, I am committed to ensuring that your experience is informative, engaging, and rich in historical context.

Dimitris is highly recommended. His knowledge is outstanding; he organised our 5 day tour of mainland Greece and all the personal professional guides. He was really flexible during the tour and we were able to go at our pace and fit in other unplanned activities. We really enjoyed this tour and I thoroughly recommend Dimitris as a guide, and his ability to organise a tour like this with the ability to change to the needs of his customers. Thank you Dimitris. Glen and Ludmilla

4 of us had a wonderful experience! Dimitri was SO knowledgeable and adjusted the tour to suit us while also being ready to direct us to the best spots, preparing us with talks, videos and pictures. Van was super-comfortable and accommodations were just right. His level of expertise was deep but he adjusted to our level of interest. He was present but left us to be able to explore on our own with excellent recommendations. Cannot recommend highly enough. We got pictures via his drone too!!

We spent four wonderful days touring Greece with Dimitris. He customized the tour to our specifications (Olympia, Delphi, and Meteora) and also recommended a few additional stops that were well worth seeing, especially the Greek theater at Epidavros. Although he could not accompany us into the sites, he provided plenty of information and a licensed guide was not really needed. He also made excellent restaurant recommendations and, last but not least, he was a very good driver.

You never know what you're going to get when you go on a five day trip with a stranger. We were exceedingly surprised and happy. Dimitris was a wonderful and insightful person. He planned a very good trip where we saw many exciting places in Greece. We stayed at very nice places and ate at all of the best local restaurants. He had excellent recommendations for authentic foods. His knowledge and professionalism are top rated. We highly recommend him and would use him again on our next trip.

We feel at home with Dimitris as our guide. The drive in his van is comfortable and he is able to provide good recommendation for food. He is very accommodative to adjust the itinerary if we have any changes and has good knowledge of the places of attraction that we visited.
