Georgia was our warm and friendly host. She led us to several hidden gems we never would have seen on our own. We tasted delicious food and had an education about the area. A great way to begin our vacation.

We met Anastasia for our morning walk around the city, interspersed with food and drinks. Anastasia stayed for two hours longer than we had booked her for and was a lovely guide. It is the way to see the city, and find the right cafes, bars for food, drinks and Greek coffee. Fabulous! I
