Welcome to Athens, Greece! I'm Vassilios, a born-and-raised Athenian and a professional tour driver since 2004. With 470+ reviews and a 4.9★ rating on ToursByLocals, I've welcomed travellers from all over the world and shown them the best of Athens and Greece at their own pace. What you can expect: • Private tours in a modern, smoke-free, air-conditioned Mercedes: a sedan for 1–3 guests or a Mercedes minivan for groups of 4–6 • Pickup from your hotel, Airbnb or cruise port, and free airport pickup and drop-off on my layover tours • A flexible route built around your interests, with time for photos, local food and hidden corners most tourists miss • Day trips beyond Athens, such as Cape Sounion and Ancient Corinth My school, friends and family are all here, so I know the city inside out. Along the way I'll share stories of our history, mythology and everyday life, and point you to the local restaurants Athenians actually love. You'll save time, skip the stress of taxis and maps, and see the real Athens. Please note: I am a professional, licensed tour driver and tour operator certified by the Greek National Tourism Organization, not a licensed guide, so I cannot guide inside archaeological sites or museums. I provide commentary, videos and historical insights in the vehicle. Licensed guides are optional, at an extra cost (approx. €300 for 2–3 hours) and subject to availability. I look forward to welcoming you to Athens!

Overview of your Athens tour
Why book with me: 20+ years in Athens tourism (since 2004) • 470+ reviews, 4.9★ • born-and-raised Athenian driver • pickup from your hotel, Airbnb or cruise port • flexible route at your own pace. Just an hour from Athens, Corinth was once one of the richest cities of ancient Greece, and it still surprises visitors today. First we stop at the dramatic Corinth Canal, where the sea cuts through solid rock between mainland Greece and the Peloponnese. Then we continue to Ancient Corinth. Walk among its fountains, its marketplace and the Doric Temple of Apollo, where the Apostle Paul lived and preached for almost two years. High above stands Acrocorinth, with sweeping views over the gulf. You travel privately in a comfortable, air-conditioned Mercedes minivan for up to 6, with your own English-speaking tour driver. We go at your pace, and I'll share the stories behind each place along the way. Licensed guides are optional, available upon request for an additional fee, and subject to availability.
