Warm greetings from Athens, Greece! My name is Dimitris, and I am a Professional Driver and Tour Operator certified by the Greek National Tourism Organization in Athens since 2014 (license number 0207E70000780001). Please note that I am not certified to accompany you inside the historical sites. Originally born in Brunswick, New Jersey, I spent the first five years of my life in the beautiful town of Old Bridge before relocating to Greece. Throughout my life, I have developed a deep love for Greece, its magical places, and the captivating stories that have shaped its rich history. In my travels, both within Greece and abroad, I am constantly seeking authentic experiences and avoiding tourist traps. My goal is to share the beauty of my country with you, provide insights into Greek mythology and both modern and ancient history, showcase breathtaking scenery, and lead you to my favorite places to indulge in authentic Greek cuisine. Above all, my aim is to make you feel at home and create a memorable experience. As a person who easily gets bored, I constantly embrace new technological advancements to stay ahead of the market. Due to my limitation as a licensed guide, I utilize drone footage and 3D applications to offer a virtual journey through history before visiting the sites. In 2024, I plan to launch an app for smart devices, featuring audio commentary from professional licensed guides, augmented reality capabilities, and vivid reconstructions of major sites, further enhancing your independent experience. Now that you have a better understanding of who I am, I invite you to join me for an honest, personal, and informative experience in Athens. Contact me today and let's embark on a journey to live your myth in Greece! I am a professional Tour Operator and Travel Agent, licensed by the Greek Ministry of Tourism to independently organize and conduct excursions. With this accreditation, I am authorized to ensure the highest standards of service and professionalism throughout the entire tour experience. As a certified and licensed operator, you can trust in my expertise and capabilities to provide you with an exceptional and enriching travel experience in Greece. Although I am unable to accompany you inside the monuments due to licensing regulations, I am committed to ensuring that your experience is informative, engaging, and rich in historical context.

This meticulously planned 2-day tour ensures you experience the highlights of Delphi, the awe-inspiring Meteora, and significant historical landmarks, all while providing opportunities for relaxation, delightful meals, and moments to treasure.
It was a great trip. Dimitris was entertaining and worked hard to make sure we had a wonderful experience. We recommend him.
There were some some small but ultimately inconsequencial blips. The meeting time changed because of the Delphi guide, but we hadn't asked for one. We had to pay for his room "because the place we were to be in cancelled." Dimitris' car was very comfortable. He was a good driver and interesting conversationalist. We did not get to see the sunset as described in the itinerary. A couple didn't want to go to another monestary so he took them to a restaurant to wait while the others saw two more.
We had a marvelous two day tour. He arranged our lodging for the one night. He varied the agenda as he got to know us better. His explanations of the areas - both the current situation and the history that happen in each place as we drove was top notch. He has a pleasant personality. It was a great two days touring north of Athens.
Dimitris is a wonderful, knowledgeable and well prepared guide. My teens and I had a great time visiting Delphi and Meteora with him. We had great conversations during the long drives between various sites. Dimitris arranged an excellent licensed guide in Delphi for us, making tour of this majestic place unforgettable. We loved our visit to Meteora. Dimitris even recommended restaurants and places to eat on the way that served great local food. Thanks for the wonderful trip Dimitris!
This was our favorite tour of all. We left Athens to tour the Greek islands for 8 days. When we returned, Dimitris picked us up at the ferry port in Rafina, and drove us to visit Delphi. He arranged for an overnight in a lovely guesthouse called Iridanos in Kalambaka, and the following day, we toured Meteora. Do not miss Meteora. It's fascinating visiting the nunneries and monasteries.
We had a great time with Dimitris and very accommodating to our needs. He is very knowledgeable in the area. His car is equipped with DVD player for your kids to watch a movie if needed.
