Konstantinos was a wonderful driver! He was patient and answered all of our questions. He was knowledgeable about all things Greece. The Mercedes Benz was comfortable. We got to stop at several locations and get out to walk around for a bit which was nice. Our tour started early in the morning, but Konstantinos met us with a smile and a hearty "Kalimmera!" He stopped and got us coffee and cheese pie for breakfast which was amazing! Konstantinos and my husband spoke about many subjects on our tour. He was open and happy to share a typical "day in the life of" story. Overall we couldn't have asked for a better driver. I would give him a 10 star review!
Beautiful and wonderful experience.

This was an amazing and unique experience for me and my family. We had a great time. The private guide and driver (Andreas) was excellent and friendly. He also explained parts of the land and pointed out what they mean and what had happened in Greece recently (the fire) this was great to see first hand and to have Andreas as a private guide and driver was wonderful. We would no doubt recommend Andreas to our friends and family or if we came back to Greece again. Keep up the lovely work everyone :)
Safe and luxurious!!!

Luxury transportation, friendly and attentive driver, comfortable and cleaned cabin. The trip was perfectly organized and the places we visited were fantastic. We really liked it and we already make a reservation for south Peloponnese in few day!!! Last but not least because of the covid-19 situation in cabin there was antibacterial gel and masks if you lost yours.
