Fabulous and Varied Tour!

Published on Oct, 2024

We highly recommend this experience! Truly a highlight of our 12 day Greek Adventure! Our guide was committed to giving us the best experience possible and he sure delivered! It ended up being a 12 hour day, with a variety of experiences that we thoroughly enjoyed! Our driver was so well-read and informed, sharing so much knowledge that truly added to our experience and understanding of what we saw, eventhough he was not a "certified guide". Definitely recommend this tour. You will not be disappointed.

Great private tour.

Published on Sep, 2024

We were expecting to share a minibus, but instead had a private tour. Georgio our driver spoke excellent English thankfully and we had a really fun day as a result. Locations were varied and interesting and we didnt feel the time pressure of a coach trip. Very relaxed and enjoyable trip!

Corinth

Published on Aug, 2024

This trip was an excellent way to experience the countryside of Greece. We highly recommend this tour and our excellent limo driver Billy. He was very attentive to our needs and was extremely friendly I wish we had read up on the history or paid for a guide at each site and places we were seeing before we embarked on the long journey.

Difficult walk but worth it if you are able

Published on Jun, 2024

We really enjoyed the private tour. It was over 90 degrees F and it involved a great deal of very difficult walking and climbing. We found the outcome was worth the effort but it was exhausting. Lunch was in a beautiful area by the water.

Leisurely and Lots To See

Published on Jun, 2024

Excellent tour with our taxi and tour guide Alex. Wonderful sights and rich information from Alex which added an extra dimension. We went at our own pace "Don't worry about the clock, just enjoy" said Alex, and we did. A great day and wonderful lunch in Nafplio. 10/10
