It was a great experience. The driver, Γιώργος, is a very skillful and experienced driver, and very knowledgeable about Apostle Paul. He has been professional and flexible. The Acrocorinth and the ancient harbor are strikingly beautiful!

Wonderful tours with Glykeria Kalomvouni as our guide and driver. Pickup at cruise port was easy. Went to various locations Corinth that made the Bible come alive. A must due trip and an excellent driver that should request in Athens for touring.

Giorgos from Welcome pickups was a great guide! We had unknowingly scheduled a late pickup when most of the sites would be closed. His boss called us the day before to let us know and offered to pick us up as soon as we landed at airport. That saved the entire tour. Giorgos went out of his way to pick us up and then return us to our hotel during rush hour traffic at same price. He took us to the promised sites and an extra church with an intricate mosaic depiction of the Apostle Paul. Giorgos was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions as well as recommending a fabulous lunch spot! Very tasty Greek food! He was very knowledgeable about Apostle Paul’s travels in Corinth which is what we were very interested in learning about. I would gladly tour with Giorgos again.
Awesome

We booked a 6 hour tour with Viator. BEWARE : Our tour guide was Eirini. She was unprofessional, aggressive and rude to us from the moment she picked us up. After a few minutes in the car with her we decided to cancel the tour because of her behavior.The driver's rudeness and condescending behavior was not acceptable and we expected a full refund. We exited the cab and the driver sped off down the street. We were completely appalled and embarrassed by the driver/tour guide's behavior. We had booked an expensive, private tour with the hopes of making wonderful memories on our tour. Instead we now have a bad experience associated with this day forever. We are on a once in a lifetime vacation and we cannot get our day/time back. This tour guide's behavior was completely unacceptable and she ruined our plans. We did file a complaint with the company but were told that we likely will not be getting our money back... again, we are completely shocked and disheartened by the whole experience . I would not EVER recommend using this company again.
