This was a great tour!... - This was a great tour! Our guide was knowledgeable and fun. We were gone for around 10 hours. The first hour or so was on the bus getting out of Athens with the traffic. The guide was speaking about different things while we drove. We stopped at the canal and took some pictures for about 30 minutes. We had the opportunity there to buy coffee and pastries at the stop, and to use the restroom. Then we drove another 30-60 minutes to the site of Ancient Corinth and toured there with overear headsets. Again, our guide was great. We are Christians and this was our motivation for booking the tour, so staying a bit longer here would have been nice. We were at the site and museum for an hour, almost moving through the entire time. Both the site and the museum are great. We rode for another little while to Nafplion and had a tour of about 20 minutes. Then, the time was free for lunch and sightseeing. The city is beautiful. We packed a picnic lunch and did not spend as long on dining, so we would have been content to leave here 30-60 minutes earlier. We were there for 2.5 hours total. There are no public restrooms in the city. We had a nice ride back into the city with our guide occasionally jumping in to share more information.

Great tour! - This was a great tour! Didn't spend super long at the canal, but ancient Corinth was amazing! Our guide took us around to a few spots and gave us some information. Then, he took us through the museum and explained more stuff. Then, we got free time to go explore whatever else we wanted to do or take more pictures. I like that---give me some guided information and then let me have some free time. This is how it worked in Nafplion too. And it's a cute little town! I would highly recommend this tour. My only suggestion would maybe be to spend a little more time at the canal and skip the "coffee break" part of it. Overall, it was great though, and our guide was great too!

A nice day trip from Athens - This was a very good and informative tour. The bus was comfortable, the guide presented lots of historically relevant information, and the combination of the canal, the ancient Corinth site, and Nafplion was just the right amount for a manageable day trip.

Perfect Pace Perfect Day - Dymitiri (no idea how to spell his name) was a wealth of fascinating knowledge. I loved all 3 stops. Perfect day. We saw, learned and ate! His guidance thru the museum, and the archeology opened my mind. Highly recommend as a comfortable day trip from Athens -especially if you ever go to Ephesus, Turkey. The two are so similar but different.

No stress to Corinth - The tour was very informative and took all the stress of navigating getting to Corinth out of the equation. The coach bus was very comfortable and relaxing with the AC. The tour was very informative but was not biblically based so if you are looking for more info on Apostle Paul maybe try a different tour. This tour was very affordable for what it included.

Great Tour! - This was a great tour. Bus was comfortable. Our guide was great - very knowledgeable and spoke English well. She gave us lots of good information about ancient Corinth. Was a very good tour. In Nafplio she gave us an overview and then we were on our own to wander this lovely town for a while. Good experience.

This tour is a very nice... - This tour is a very nice way to spend a day while in Athens. Everything from transportation to our guide was top notch. The tour was well planned and kept on schedule but not to the point of feeling rushed to get through any of the historic sights.

Nice tour, great guide - Very nice tour, our guide Anastasia was very informative and helpful. The tour itself was very interesting, I liked better Ancient Corinth, but Nafplion was nice also.

History and shopping afterwards. - Some walking on rough surfaces and a long bus ride. Guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Canal was not worth the time but the ancient city of Corinth and the town Naptpoli were good stops.

Last minute cancelation by tour guide - Our tour was cancelled 48 prior and we had to scramble to schedule something for this day. We were caught by surprise as we had looked forward to this opportunity.
