Athens full day tour

5.00Our full day private Athens tour was absolutely amazing! Our tour guide Panos was excellent. He was very polite, informative, and answered any questions we had. He also gave us his Greek beer recommendations. We ended with a 2 hour cruise that was very relaxing and allowed us to see Athens from different perspective. Overall it was a great day with the best guide Panos!

5.00Excellent full day tour. Our guide was Theodore, and he took full care of us. The only thing the tour didn't fully include was the Olympic Stadium, though we had a chance to take a few pictures in front of it. My group went and did a full tour the previous day, it is highly recommended, so not a problem for us - just be aware if you don't account for it. Regardless, I would say that all of the times that were given were just about perfect (90 minutes for the Acropolis, 60 for the Agora, 90 for the museum). Thank you for a great experience!
Great tour day in Athens!

5.00We had an amazing experience with Pantalis. He was very kind and punctual. He was very knowledgeable of the area and took us to the best places in Athens and made great recommendations. We would definitely book another tour with Pantalis at Olive Sea Travel.
Panos is awesome!

5.00We had the best time with our tour guide, Manos! He was so friendly, funny, and made the whole day so easy and enjoyable. He knew all the best spots, shared great local recommendations, and was always happy to answer questions. We felt completely taken care of and got to see so much more than we would have on our own. Highly recommend! This was one of the highlights of our trip!

5.00We were very pleased to be greeted early by our driver and guide, Panos. He is very knowledgeable about Athens and provided a lot of great history and directions as we toured for 7 hours. His English is easy to understand and appreciated. He is very polite and accommodating to everyone’s questions and needs. I highly recommend this tour with Panos!
Best Day in Athens

5.00We had an incredible time on the Athens Full Day Private Tour. George, our guide, was FANTASTIC!! It was our first time to Greece and we would only be in Athens for two days. We wanted to see as much as possible and this tour fit the bill and exceed expectations!!! We fit all of the major locations - Acropolis, Parthenon, Agora, Proplyea, Temple of Athena, Temple of Zeus, Panathenaic Stadium (1st modern Olympics Games), Athens "balcony" to overlook entire city, changing of the guard, National Archeological Musuem, and many many more. The tour was perfect!! Lunch was in Koukaki and I've gotta say that was the BEST gyro I've ever eaten. I get them in the U.S. all the time, but nothing compares to this!!! George kept us on time, but we never felt rushed even with a jammed packed schedule. He shared history, local expertise, answered questions, and a few laughs along the way. He was knowledgeable, fun, charismatic, just a joy to be around, and we had a blast spending the day with him. Highly recommend this tour from Olive by the Sea!!!
Amazing full day tour

5.00We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Dimi today! From the moment the tour began, he was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about sharing the history, culture, and stories of Athens. He brought every site to life with fascinating details and answered all of our questions with patience and enthusiasm. What really stood out was his passion for Greece and his ability to make the history feel meaningful and memorable. This was one of the highlights of our trip, and we left with a much deeper appreciation for Athens and its incredible history. I would highly recommend this tour—and especially this guide—to anyone visiting Athens. Thank you for an unforgettable day!
