Greetings from Greece! My name is Nektarios and I am a local at the city of Athens. I speak Greek and English fluently and I have been working as a licensed taxi driver and tour guide for the past 18 years. I chose this profession because I have always liked cars and driving in general. I am also a car engineer graduate and I work part time as a high school professor. This has given me the chance always be aware of my vehicles and be able to understand and overcome any situation. My current vehicle is a Mercedes E class. I believe that one word that would perfectly describe my personality is passionate. Passionate about my country. Passionate about my work. Passionate to adapt and try to do the best I can. I have always loved Greece and especially its rich history and culture. In fact, I can hardly think of a time that I did not want to open another history or mythology book in order to further extend my knowledge. Seven years ago I gave my first tour around Athens and so I had my first chance to try to pass my passion to others. I've loved it ever since. After that I have been working hard gathering pictures, videos and additional information to provide my customers with. Finding various local restaurants for them to try the famous Greek traditional cuisine and small out-of-the-way places that attract way less travellers and provide them with unique experiences. I am also one of the few Private Drivers in Athens who has passed and been issued with a Greek Certification Diploma from 2007 as a certified driver-guide by EOT (Greek National Tourism Organization), Everything I do is for my customer's satisfaction, happiness and entertainment. It would be an honour to continue this with you. Together we will uncover the rich History and uniqueness of Greece while having fun in the process. I look forward to meeting you. Private tour guide for the last seven years. Degree in mechanical engineering. I am a mechanical engineering professor for vocational high schools. History expert & professional taxi driver. I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside of the historical monuments and museums.

What my travellers enjoy most about this tour is that it is not just about our destination at the site but also the trip. I always loved this location as a kid as it let me escape the city in a short amount of time but also learn about my culture and history. That's the same experience that I want each of my travellers to live and cherish. You will enjoy a scenic drive to Cape Sounio and visit the breathtaking temple of Poseidon. Feel free to adore the outstanding view of the Aegean sea and one of the most beautiful sunsets in Greece. *If you want to see the sunset book after 17:30! It is one of Greece's most photographed monuments so make sure to take plenty of photos as its unique location and aesthetic can offer great opportunities. After that get ready to experience the Greek cuisine at a small traditional restaurant.
Starting from Athens, we will take a 1 hour scenic route along the coast of Apollo where we will see many beautiful beaches, local settlements, yacht clubs and rocky islands. After that we will visit the ruins of the famous temple of Poseidon and enjoy the view of the Aegean sea and the sunset if you book the tour in the afternoon. We will return in the same route and eat at a local restaurant. The itinerary can be adapted to traveller's interests: do not hesitate to contact me for a customized tour
