A wonderful one-day tour of Athens - June 25, 2025- an 8 hrs. tour of Athens with our driver Panos. He was driving an air conditioned Mercedes Benz Sprinter and provided cold bottled water for us whenever we need water. We were told by Frank of Hellenic Private tour to start the tour since Athens will reach close to a 100 degrees Fahrenheit by mid afternoon. We started at 9am. In the morning Panos took us first to all outside sightseeing stops like, Acropolis, Parthenon, Temple of Zeus, the Proplea, the Erechtheum, the theater of Dionysus and other sites. In every stop before we got out of the van Panos gave us a brief history of the place we were visiting with the use of photos from his IPad. Then by 1pm Panos took us to a Greek restaurant. The food was delicious and everyone enjoyed the food. From the restaurant we went to the Modern Acropolis museum. Before returning to our villa Panos continued the city tour of the Panathiniac Olympic Stadium, tomb of unknown soldiers, drive by the academy, national library and drive up Lycabettus hill to enjoy view of Athens. Our whole family was very pleased with the services of Hellenic Private Tours, our driver Panos and all the suggestions of Frank. We happily recommend them to anyone visiting Athens.

Experience of a life time!!! - It was an experience of a life time.Our tour guide Panos was very gracious and understanding.He gave us water bottles during our entire stay and explained the areas we were exploring very well.He was on time and as we were with young children showed us a lot of grace. Panos was very knowledgeable about the areas we wanted to visit and answered our questions in detail.The tour van was excellent, clean with good air condition.Well kept and maintained. We would highly recommend H.P tours to people who wish to have a wonderful experience in Greece.

A great way to see Athens, Poseidon’s Temple, & the Acropolis - A fantastic day. Our guide, Joanna, was knowledgeable and friendly. Our driver, Evan, was efficient, safe, and always went the extra mile. We were escorted to the entrance of the Acropolis and provided clear instructions for meeting up with the van and guide. We had just the right amount of time to see the amazing ruins. Next we took a tour around the city and Joanna provided a great tour. We stopped to see the changing of the guards at the Presidential Residence. Finally, we were driven to Poseidon’s temple and stopped for lunch overlooking the sea. I highly recommend this tour, this tour company, Evan, and Joanna! .

Amazing Tour Guide and Experience - Our guide Tasos was not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also wonderfully attentive, kind, and truly went above and beyond to make sure every moment of our day was special. From the moment the tour began, it was clear we were in the hands of someone who genuinely cared. He was patient and brought so much warmth and personality to the experience. It felt less like a tour and more like exploring with a friend who knows everything there is to know about the place. Thank you Tasos!

Amazing tour to Temple of Poaeidon at sunset with Panos! - We had a wonderful guided tour of various spots in and around Glyfada, culminating in watching the sunset from the Temple of Poseidon! It was a stunning view. Our guide Panos was super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. He tailored the trip according to our preference and took us to several scenic spots for photos. He was also very informative and kind!

Relaxing tour in a busy city - This tour was so relaxed and amazing. Jimmy was the best! He took us to a peaceful lunch on the cape right on the water. We hit some many sites in Athens and outside the city center. It was the perfect way to end our trip.
