Awesome day in Athens! - We arrived in Athens on the day of a massive taxi driver/ tour operator strike. All excursions from the cruise ship were canceled, and passengers were scrambling to make other plans. Our Viator booking called us to relieve our concerns that they were fully operational. The driver was fantastic. He chatted with us and discussed the places that would be best for us to visit- the best part of a private car is that you make your own itinerary. He took us to several historic locations and the changing of the guards and still made it to our reservation at the Acropolis with time to spare. He gave us tips for each location and we had conversations about the historical significance of each place. He took us away from the crowds of tourists to an authentic Greek bakery with amazing delicacies and ice-cold drinks. The lack of tourist traffic allowed for several extra locations, and our driver made the most of our time in Athens. Highly recommended!

The best way to see Athens! - Our Athens tour with Takis was the highlight of our trip. We were able to be in air conditioning sightseeing around and then being able to pull up right to the most important viewpoints. He explained the history of the area and pointed out great places for lunch as well Athens is a large city so we recommend having this private tour and it doesn’t break the bank. It is worth every dollar. Thank you !

Great Tour & Transfer – Highly Recommend! - I booked a half-day private tour with airport pickup and drop-off at the cruise port, and everything was excellent. The driver was on time, friendly, and the car was clean and comfortable. The stops along the way were a great introduction to Athens. A smooth, enjoyable experience -- highly recommend!

In Athens -use Athens Limo! - So worth it!! Communication is excellent from pre booking through to end. Trust Athens Limo Tours! Our driver was so amazing! He loaded all of our oversized luggage in a luxury van and kept it while we saw Athens with a very knowledgeable private tour guide who expertly gave us the red carpet treatment into the sites. And he knew just how to put us to get the best pictures in front of the Acropolis. Then our driver gave us insider info about where to go - which was awesome! -to things to do on the next part of our trip in Greece as he dropped us off at the airport.

Half Day Acropolis Trip - We are very pleased with your tour company and your tour guide Iris, Dionisis (Assistant to Dora)! Our 9-year old son especially enjoyed conversing with Iris very much during the half day Acropolis trip! Thanks again for the quick turnaround! We really appreciate you!

Excellent! - We were thrilled with our time with both Chris and Nikos - Chris was a prompt and gracious guide who got us around the city with ease - he was also very knowledgeable about the history and monuments and eagerly shared that information with us - we spent the majority of our time with Nikos, though, and count ourselves as lucky for the experience - to be guided around the beautiful and historic city of Athens by a trained and active archeologist was just a special treat which we won't forget! Nikos is passionate about Greek history and culture and also just a good person all around and he truly made our time with him special - thank you very much for an awesome tour!

A Perfect Private tour in Athens - This tour was just what we wanted, and Dimitrius made it a perfect excursion for us. He did a good job communicating with us beforehand, picked us up at the cruise port right on time in a very comfortable limousine, took us to see all the important sights, and did an excellent job providing both historical background and information about present day life in Athens. He was not only very accommodating and responsive to our needs, but was also fun to be with. We were able to see the changing of the guard, visit the Acropolis museum, see the sights, and have time for lunch in the Plaka.
