We had never been to Athens before and wanted to insure we covered the highlights. Petros was our driver/tour guide and was a wealth of information. He knows his ancient history and go-to modern Greek reality. At every stop before we exited the really nice Mercedes Benz, Petros provided the highlights and history of what we were about to explore. We were able to tour Acropolis, the original Panathenaic Olympic Stadium in Greece, and the Changing of the Guard at The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in front of the Greek Parliament Building which is guarded by the Evzones, the soldiers of the former royal bodyguard. Petros explained to us the significance of the 400 folds in the soldiers skirts. We traveled on to an amazing delicious traditional Greek lunch at Kalaypso Tavern. After lunch we had time to see the Temple of Olympian Zeus, and drive to the top of one of Athens mountains for an incredible view of the city. Absolutely just amazing. Thank you Petros for a fantastic day!
