  • Fantastic Tour with Kimon

    We normally shy away from 'group tours' as we often feel trapped by their itinerary. We booked this as the price was reasonable (we received a flyer from Avra Travel when we boarded our bus transfer from ferry to hotel). We even had pick up and drop off from our hotel to the meeting point included in the tour - made it very easy. This tour surprised us both - it was phenomenal. That said, it was our guide (Kimon) who made it so amazing. His knowledge as well as his interest in and care for his clients was evident. We loved that in each town, he gave us a guided tour (always at a good pace to get the lay of the land) then gave us ample time to explore on our own. We got to see 4 towns (including taking the ferry over to Antiparos) all in one day and didn't feel rushed at all. We felt we got to see everything and learned a lot from Kimon. We even by chance encountered a bride and family getting ready ahead of the wedding and we cheered so they all came out to see us and wave (and the mother of the bride came down and handed out sweet treats to everyone on our tour) - it was a very special spontaneous addition. The tour company should make sure to hold onto Kimon as he is just and incredible tour guide and a pretty great guy.

    Supposed to be a small group, and ended up being the two of us. Loved the small villages and treated well by both our guide and driver.. crazy tight roads.

    I truly felt like we'd seen most - if not all - of Paros during this tour. Our tour guide was a wealth of historical knowledge & very engaging! There was a good mix of walking & riding - & there was plenty of free time to explore on our own at each location as well.

  • Best bet for covering it all

    This was a very comprehensive, informative, and balanced tour of the major sites on Paros and Antiparos. I don't think you could do better for an all-in-one trip that will acquaint you with the island and some of is history. Our guide was great, and there was plenty of free time for eating, exploring, and shopping. Unfortunately, today was uncharacteristically wet and cold, and I sometimes wished we had the option to stay on the bus rather than wander in the rain!

    A great way to see many locations if you’re pressed for time. A very nice full day of touring in Paros and Antiparos, with the right amount of free time to explore on your own.

    Viator goes out of its way for its customers. I was late getting to my pick up point. I missed the original driver and Viator sent another driver for me so that I wouldn’t miss my tour. They held up the tour for me.

    This tour is a great way to see Paros if you only have a short time on the island. We especially loved being able to get to Antiparos which we probably would not have if it weren't incorporated into this tour. At first, the size of the group seemed way too big (about 45 people) but the tour guide Kimon did a nice job managing everyone and going at a good pace through each of the stops. We really liked the amount of free time allocated at each stop to wander and shop, so it was a nice balance of guided tour with lots of history and information from Kimon combined with free time.
