My name is Dimitrios and I was born and raised on the island of Salamis, next to Athens. I have been performing tours for years, not only in Greece but also in UK, something that helped me improve my English skills a lot. I have also spent many years of my life in Athens. Performing tours is not just a job for me. I am thrilled to show the gems of my country and initiate the travelers in our history and culture. History has always been my passion since I was a child, which was the reason I studied History at the University of Corfu. My history knowledge in combination with my driving experience and my desire to make each tour tailored to my client's interests, transforms each tour into a lifetime experience. In my tours, you will experience ancient sites, castles, museums, scenic drives and amazing traditional Greek food. Travelling is also part of my life. I haven't stopped travelling as a tourist all over the world the last 10 years. I totally understand how it feels to be a tourist in a foreign country and this helped me a lot to improve the services I provide. I offer exclusively private tours to different destinations all around Greece, on a 7 seater MPV minivan (5 adults+1 kids-no luggage or 3 adults+1 kid-with luggage) My ultimate goal is the customers' satisfaction and entertainment. I will work around your interests and needs to provide you with the best tour possible. I will do my best to ensure you have a magnificent, personalized, and extraordinarily unique experience visiting my beautiful country, Greece. -Professional driver -Licensed tour operator by the Greek Ministry of Tourism -History degree holder of Corfu History University -Authorized by the NGTO (National Greek Tourism Organization) I am a guide-driver, not a licensed tour guide and will not be able to guide you inside of the historical monuments, but I'll share all my historical knowledge on board.

Overview of your Athens tour

Starting from Athens you will enjoy a scenic drive all the way to Cape Sounio and the Temple of Poseidon. You'll be dazzled by the famous landscape that surrounds the promontory of the Sounion. In the times of the ancient Greeks, this site was revered as sacred ground dedicated to the gods Poseidon and Athena. On our way a stop to Vouliagmeni Lake couldn't be missing. You will admire the view and have time for photo-shooting at this unique lake of Athens. Next, marvel at the Temple of Poseidon perched upon the cliff's edge 70 meters above the sea. Walk the blessed earth of the Sounion, one of the places sung about it in Homer's Odyssey, and stand on the same cliff where it is said King Aegeus threw himself off. Experience the famous sunset from the Temple, get amazing photos and admire the sun reflexion hiding in Aegean sea waters.
