Hello, my name­ is Yannis (John)! I live in Athens, I'm married, and a proud father of two kids. I've worked in the tourism industry for many years. The year 1000 marked a significant turning point in my life. I decided to leave my career abroad and return to my home country. Finally, I settled in Athens and reunited with my family, whom I had been missing due to my professional obligations. My goal is to provide my clients with reliable and worry-free touring services. I place a high value on interpersonal relationships and have successfully incorporated them into my services, which are characterized by professionalism and experience. I've been taking clients on tours of Greece for many years now, focusing on land-based tours all over the country. Let me show you the wonders of Athens, Corinth, Nafplion, Meteora, Sounion, Olympus, Thessaloniki, Ioannina, Zagorochoria, and beautiful, unexplored places in Greece. Exploring Greece with me will immerse you in centuries of history, rich traditions, delicious local cuisine (try the home-cooked dishes like the Greeks cook them at home), and breathtaking natural beauty. Greece is a mountainous country that never fails to captivate visitors. Charming stone villages, historic monasteries clinging to cliffs, rushing rivers, and dramatic gorges make it a beloved destination. And for adventure-seekers, Greece offers thrilling activities like rafting, river trekking, and diverse hiking opportunities! I use a fleet of luxurious, comfortable, and fully air-conditioned vehicles that are ideal even for the longest and most tiring tours. Whether you are a family of travelers, a member of a company, or a businessman, I can provide you with touring services that best suit your needs. Just book a tour with me, and I can assure you that by the end of our journey, you'll feel like you've gained a friend in Greece. I'm here to make your experience seamless and enjoyable, so you can focus on creating lasting memories! - Authorized by the Greek Ministry of Tourism, - Member of HELLENIC ASSOCIATION OF TRAVEL & TOURIST AGENCIES - Diploma in Tourism and Hotel Administration, - MBA in Frankfurt, - Atte­nded various workshops and seminars in Gree­ce, Switzerland, England, France, and Ge­rmany, all focused on the tourism industry. I am not an officially licensed tour guide, so I cannot accompany you inside the archaeological sites and museum. However, I have many fascinating stories I'd be happy to share with you!

Yiannis was a wonderful guide. He was very knowledgeable, very patient, gave us lots of historical information and good with answering questions about sites we were seeing and Greece overall. He was careful to point out things we would not want to miss. The van was very nice and very clean. The only thing not making this a 5 star was the last minute notice that it would cost us extra to pick us up when transportation was supposed to be included. Assuming increasing gas prices drove the extra.

We enjoyed Corinth and the history of Paul. John was very thorough and knowledgeable. It was like going back in time and visualizing what life was like in Pauls day. Thank you John!

Our tour of Ancient Corinth with Yannis was fabulous. We got to see the Corinth Canal, the site where St. Paul first landed in Greece, the Acropolis of Corinth, the Archeological Museum of Ancient Corinth, and had a terrific lunch in a small lovely restaurant in Ancient Corinth. All in all a wonderful day during our time in Greece.

John was a very good guide and driver. He provided excellent information throughout the tour. His mini bus was pristine.

Yannis did a great job showing us all the sites and more that were listed for the tour. He was very pleasant, knowledgable and courteous. He exceeded our expectations. My wife and I both enjoyed the tour and recommend Yannis as your guide. Yannis was even ten minutes early picking us up for the tour.

Your Athens tour itinerary
