Nikolaos was nothing less than excellent. He was very responsive before the tour texting help and information most any hour of the day. He was always flexible and accommodating with our needs. He went out of his way to make our tour the very best.

Nikolaos C. was an excellent tour guide. We enjoyed our drive up to Delphi, seeing the countryside and driving through small towns. Nikolaos told us about the country and farming and we could saw first hand several industries. Our group of 7 had a very comfortable ride in his vehicle. We loved the place and food at the restaurant he had us eat lunch at in Delphi. Overall a very enjoyable experience.
Brenda S.United States
Fantastic tour of Delphi and Hosios Loukas. We had a beautiful scenic drive with lots of commentary about Greek history and culture/customs along the way. A lunch stop at To Patriko Mas Restaurant was a great choice with a stunning vista from the terrace. Superb tour all around.
Christopher G.United States
We engaged Nikolaos to take us on a day trip to Delphi and Hosios Lukas. The day was a pure delight, thanks in large part to Nikolaos . As a licensed tour driver, he was punctual and provided safe transportation throughout the day. Although he is not a licensed guide, he provided us with a lot of highly informative historical and cultural information about the sites prior to our arrival. We were allowed to appreciate these special places on our own and at our pace. We recommend Nikolaos very highly.

Our guide was fantastic as was our trip to Delphi. Nikolai's is so knowledgeable and so willing to answer any questions and assist in every possible way. His love of his country and history add everything to this trip. We traveled on the 21st and had such a great time. Our lunch stop was beautiful and the food fantastic. 5 Stars and more.
