No words would be enough to describe this tour. Totally worth it. It’s a day long tour, because of off season it started at 5 am with hotel pick up. I caught up on my sleep to Meteora and woke up to magical sights. Monasteries in Meteora just are breathtakingly beautiful. Delphi was equally picturesque. We stopped by Thermopylae and my husband and son couldn’t stop talking about 300. Our tour driver was very knowledgeable, patient and kind. We had the most amazing conversations about Greek history and much more. Theodore is one of the nicest people we met on this trip. He also took us to a World War II site. Drove through quaint and beautiful towns and saw almost the length and breadth of Greece.maryamsE528JD

Well, if you read the previous reviews, you don’t need me to repeat all the wonderful things we got to learn about Theodore and his services. He is hands down the best tour guide and drive in Greece. We used three of his tours and visited the most significant historic places in the southern , northern and western Greece. The tours are not cheap but considering the number of places you cover in a day and the quality of service you receive from him, they’re of phenomenal deals. Theodore has smartly designed these tours so his clients would efficiently utilize their valuable time in Greece and maximize the number of places they could visit. He is punctual, courteous, knowledgeable about greek history and extremely passionate about his country and culture. He was very patient with us taking pictures and never rushed us despite going over time. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a memorable time. It’s worth mentioning that he offered help in regards to finding a place to do COVID test on our last day in Greece. While visiting Delphi Archeological site, he made some phone calls and found a pharmacy close by so we could get our test done. Another day, in Mycenae, my son dropped his cellphone before getting into the van from a store on the road buying ice cream and noticed it missing after 15 minutes of driving. Theodore, called the store using the receipt to see if they have found it and when they said no, he drove all the way back with no fuss to find the phone and to our utter happiness, we found the iPhone on the side of the road where my son had entered his car. We were so lucky! In conclusion, have no qualm about booking any of his tours. They would be the best, most convenient and memorable tours you’ll have in Greece. P.S. Dinners were amazing with great selections of local dishes. The thoughtful gifts of greek statues for adults and books for kids relevant to our tour were great parting event and lasting memories of our trip to Greece and our tours.Marlene_B

Guliano was great. It was a long tour on a cold and rainy day, yet he made it interesting and fun. And somehow he made the rain stop at all the important times. It was an amazing day.

I visited Greece with my family for the first time. We were so fortunate that we had Theodoros as our Tour guide. He is The Best! We visited The Temple of Poseidon in Cape Sounion, Cornith Canal, Mycenae, Sparta, Olympia, Thermapole, Delphi, and Meteora in two and half days. Theodoros is very knowledgeable, kind, personable, patient, caring, and punctual. The beautiful Greece has a great ancient history and requires a few weeks to visit all the places but we were able to see most of the highlights in a short period of time. You are in a trustworthy hands when he drives you in the mountains. He gives you plenty of time to take pictures and provides you with a lot of information while driving. Theodoros treats you like a VIP! I highly recommend him to my friends and family.G2342BFmariah

We had a great time. Theodore was an awesome tour guide. He was patient and very kind with our 4,3,1 year old kids. “Mr. Teddy” was a hit with our kids. He was engaging and made the trip great for our kids. He made sure we found ice cream, which our 4 year old asked about most the day. He made us feel like family. Besides being great with the kids, he was extremely knowledgeable about all the sites and gave information about the events in history leading up to the importance of the sites and after that time. The van was very clean, and he had car seats/ booster seats for the kids. We never felt rushed with the kids and enjoyed every aspect of the tour. It was a lot to cover in one day. Teddy did it with a smile and was always willing to lend a hand to get kids/ things in and out. The meal at the end of the day was phenomenal!! The hand carved statue given at the end of the tour was perfect for remembering our time in Greece and this great tour. This tour is well worth it!JeffA_TXUS

Go book this tour! Theodore was the BEST, very knowledgable and friendly, always trying to tell you some insights and showing you interesting sights/views, he drove us around with a car full of food & drinks and he’s also an excellent, safe driver. This particular Tour should be a “Model” for others as he is the 1st to offer a COMBO into 1 Full Day the best experiences of 3 LEGENDARY Greek places that normally would have taken multiple days and separate Tours too with other tour agencies (my time was limited so this worked very well)! DELPHI was a must-see while in Greece, it was magnificent (with 4 major historic parts plus 1 Museum), THERMOPYLAE had the great historic Leonidas statue & background of famous Battle of “300” (Spartans vs. Persians), while METEORA was just amazingly breathtaking in high places (with 6 enchanting Monasteries, you can pick to ENTER 1-2 of them and plus discover more hidden secrets around that the Tour will tell you) - and for those who did not know it upfront (like myself) keep in mind there is no need to take the Train to get to Meteora! Theodore also showed some extra sightseeings such as DISTOMO Mausoleum for the Victims of the Nazi massacre 1944 and ARACHOVA the elite beautiful city. Overall A+++ Highly Recommended Tour.Similar tours
