I was born in central Greece in 1972. I live in Athens since 1993 and I have been a licensed professional taxi driver ever since. I have been an exclusive taxi driver up to 1998 when I started cooperating with Athenian Travel Agencies, working under strict schedules and deadlines. In the Olympic Games of 2004, I served as the personal driver of the famous NBC journalist Brian Williams. Since then, I have been cooperating with many other tour sites and agencies, making guided tours in Athens and all around Greece mainland. Regarding my driving, I believe that safety comes first and I make sure that passengers feel comfortable, relaxed and enjoy a tour that can always be adjusted to their needs. As I always like to offer high-quality services, to evolve, and share my expertise with other people, I continuously enrich my knowledge of Greek history that I like so much. I am a friendly, pleasant personality and can discuss with my customers' aspects of contemporary life in Greece, traditions, and habits, to enhance a better understanding of Greek culture. I joined ToursByLocals to offer Athens tours and Greece tours at the mainland. I can guarantee you a memorable lifetime experience during your visit in Athens and Greece overall! I ensure you that after taking the tour, you will love Athens and Greece as much as I do! I am a professional licensed taxi driver for over 25 years in Athens city. I am a professional tour operator and travel agent in Athens-Greece authorized by the national Greek tourism organization. I had been trained by the American Embassy and was a private security driver for NBC American TV channel personnel at the Athens Olympic Games of 2004. I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside the historical monuments and museums. I will share with you my knowledge of history, and show you pictures of what you are about to see before you enter each site/museum.

Who wouldn't like to visit the "Navel of the Earth"? I really enjoy this tour for its unique fabulous mountainous route both of mount Parnassus for Arachova and slopes of Helicon mount for Delphi. I believe that until today you get the vibes of untiquity and power of this place. The breathtaking view empties and clears your thoughts and totally understand why ancients wanted everyone in the world to visit that place, see and feel! We take the national highway north and drive through Arachova village - popular winter snow resort and picturesque mountainous landscape. We continue our way to reach the Sanctuary of Delphi. Let your mind go empty of thoughts and troubles. Visit the museum with its wonderful findings before lunch and return to Athens
We will visit: - Delphi Oracle-Delphi Archaeological site - Delphi Archaeological Museum - Temple of Athena Pronea We will have lunch in a very nice traditional restaurant. Notes: - All above mentioned places are visitable plus you can make stops along the way whenever you feel like it, to take a bite, restroom or take photos. I will be guiding you regarding time and itinerary; you will be relaxed enjoying your tour! - This tour is private and therefore subject to changes according to your preferences, so do not hesitate to contact me for a customized tour.
