Greetings from Greece! My name is Nektarios and I am a local at the city of Athens. I speak Greek and English fluently and I have been working as a licensed taxi driver and tour guide for the past 18 years. I chose this profession because I have always liked cars and driving in general. I am also a car engineer graduate and I work part time as a high school professor. This has given me the chance always be aware of my vehicles and be able to understand and overcome any situation. My current vehicle is a Mercedes E class. I believe that one word that would perfectly describe my personality is passionate. Passionate about my country. Passionate about my work. Passionate to adapt and try to do the best I can. I have always loved Greece and especially its rich history and culture. In fact, I can hardly think of a time that I did not want to open another history or mythology book in order to further extend my knowledge. Seven years ago I gave my first tour around Athens and so I had my first chance to try to pass my passion to others. I've loved it ever since. After that I have been working hard gathering pictures, videos and additional information to provide my customers with. Finding various local restaurants for them to try the famous Greek traditional cuisine and small out-of-the-way places that attract way less travellers and provide them with unique experiences. I am also one of the few Private Drivers in Athens who has passed and been issued with a Greek Certification Diploma from 2007 as a certified driver-guide by EOT (Greek National Tourism Organization), Everything I do is for my customer's satisfaction, happiness and entertainment. It would be an honour to continue this with you. Together we will uncover the rich History and uniqueness of Greece while having fun in the process. I look forward to meeting you. Private tour guide for the last seven years. Degree in mechanical engineering. I am a mechanical engineering professor for vocational high schools. History expert & professional taxi driver. I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside of the historical monuments and museums.

What my travellers often say to me about this tour is how surprised they were about all the things Argolis had to offer. Its beauty and history create a unique experience that's hard to find. It's an area so rich that even now, I keep finding out new things to love and experiences to live. I aspire that my travellers feel the same and discover even more. Depart from Athens and visit the breathtaking Corinth canal which connects the Aegean sea with the Ionian sea. Then experience the beauty of the remains of ancient Corinth where you will understand the impact and importance it had in the ancient times. Explore the beauty of Mycenae and the unique architecture of the Treasury of Atreus. Marvel the view of Nafplio from the top of Palamidi and discover the rare acoustics of the theater of Epidavros.
We will start the tour with a beautiful scenic ride along the coast. After a while we will stop at the Corinth canal where we will enjoy its views. Then we will head to ancient Corinth and marvel its Acropolis (also named Acrocorinth). We will then visit the Mycenaean Acropolis, the treasury of Atreus and the ruins of the Cyclopean walls that protected this mighty city. Our next stop will be the picturesque alleys of Nafplio and the breathtaking panoramic view from the top of the castle of Palamidi. On our way back we will make a stop at the Asklepion and the theater of Epidavros with its unique acoustics. At some point during the tour, based on your preferences, we will also go to a traditional Greek restaurant.
