A Perfect Day in Athens

We had a fantastic private tour for our family of seven with Akis as our driver and guide. He was very flexible and incredibly knowledgeable, offering great advice on what to see and enhancing everything with insightful historical facts. The Mercedes was impeccable, spacious and comfortable, and we always felt safe and well cared for. Akis also went the extra mile by securing a reservation at an excellent restaurant with a stunning view of the Acropolis — a perfect way to end the day. Highly recommend this tour and guide!
Very flexible

We loved having Aki show us around! We had an unplanned meetup with some friends but they were very flexible and modified their plans to meet our needs. Aki packed in some sites with the time we had left and got us (family of 5) back on time. I would highly recommend them.
Wonderful family day in Athens

: Excellent service by our driver Tazos He picked us up 7:00 am so that we could make it to the Acropolis before the crowds. He knew exactly were to go, explaining in detail the history of his country and every place. He took us to every must of Athens and gave us time to walk on our own while he waited for us , very close in the van. He was kind and friendly with the kids (16,14 and 6 years old) At lunch he took us to an authentic greek restaurant with delicious food and excellent orices. We could customize the tour according to our interests and own pace. We had a wonderful day.
