We had an outstanding experience with our guide, Vasilis, who provided a smooth and insightful private tour of the Corinth area. Vasilis started the day perfectly by picking us up right from the airport. We visited the Corinth Canal: A great stop to see the engineering marvel. Ancient Corinth & Temple of Apollo: Vasilis's knowledge brought the ruins of the classical city and the impressive Temple of Apollo to life. Acrocorinth: The visit to the magnificent fortress of Acrocorinth provided breathtaking views. Olive Mill: The stop at the local olive mill was a delightful addition, giving us a taste of modern Greek life and agriculture. Vasilis was professional, knowledgeable, and ensured our day was packed with unforgettable sights. If you are looking for a comprehensive, comfortable, and highly informative tour of Ancient Corinth, we absolutely recommend booking with Vasilis!

We had a wonderful day in Athens and Corinth with Vasilis V. It's evident he loves what he does. He has a vast knowledge of the history of the things we saw. So kind and helpful. It was the best day !! Thank you Vasilis for an amazing day !!
What a great day! We met us in the hotel lobby with a smile and that lasted the entire day. What a great ambassador. The tour of Corinth is so worth it! The ruins are fabulous. The Ventura's castle overlooking the sea was very cool. The olive press tour was the highlight. Amazing owner with a field tour, virtual reality tour, and a tasting. We were blown away. Clean comfortable car and great guide. Highly recommend.
Vasilis is a motivated guide who is informative and works well with older people. He is flexible and really seems as if he enjoys his job. I highly recommend him. Visiting the olive oil orchard and Gulf of Corinth were high points
We had a couple of days in Athens before leaving for Santorini and booked this as our second day tour. Vasilis was wonderful, Corinthe was amazing, the olive oil tour was a huge hit with our group and since it was an all day tour Vasilis took us to a wonderful bay side restaurant with fabulous views serving the most amazing fresh caught seafood. After our tours Vasilis was very helpful in arranging transportation for us to and from the ferry to Santorini. I would highly recommend this tour and Vasilis!
