Excellent day in Athens! Evangelos was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. He helped us navigate the crowds and see the highlights of the Acropolis and its museum and took extra time to show us the most important sights in Athens. Highly recommend this tour and Evangelos.
Leticia A.Mexico
We visited the most important places in Athens with the limited time we had because of the cruise. If we haven't made this tour, we can't do it as it was. He allowed us to have our time in the places we prefer, and this flexibility you don't have with the cruises tours.
Lee T.United States
Evangelos was punctual, meeting us at the Piraeus Marine Terminal at the agreed time. We had a splendid driving tour of the coast and he thoughtfully purchased skip-the-line tickets for the Acropolis and Acropolis Museum in advance. As a result, he made the most of our limited time in Athens. As a native Athenian, he is knowledgable about Greek (especially Athenian) history, current events and culture. He welcomed our questions and took time to give thoughtful and insightful answers. We recommend highly!
