Kyriyakos was just an amazing tour guide and driver!! Our trip to Marathon was epic because of his absolute passion to making it special! He even took us to an authentic Greek bakery and proudly presented us with a “Pastelli” each. Highly recommend the trip itself if you are into Greek history and / or athletics!!👍 Memories for life 👍
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure sharing Marathon’s history and spirit with you. I’m delighted you enjoyed the pasteli and the local bakery experience. Wishing you many wonderful memories from Greece, and I hope to welcome you again on another adventure soon! 🇬🇷😊
One of the reasons I chose to come to Greece was to learn more about the history. The tour today to Marathon checked that box. I learned not only about the Battle of Marathon, but also the history of the Olympics and why marathos have always been part of the Games. Periklis, my driver, gave so much information about the war. I truly enjoyed my tour.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really happy to hear that the Marathon tour helped you connect more deeply with Greek history and that you enjoyed learning about the Battle of Marathon and the Olympic tradition. It was a pleasure having you, and I truly appreciate your feedback.
Demetrios was a fantastic tour guide! He was a wealth of information and I learned so much about the Battle of Marathon and the birth of the modern day marathon. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m glad you enjoyed the tour with Demetrios and truly appreciate your recommendation.
We had an amazing time!! My husband is a marathon and ultra marathoner as well as history buff. Our guide, Periklis, was wonderful!! He arrived early to meet us, his car was clean and very nice. Periklis gave us great information and tailored the time to our likes. All the stops are worth the time and Periklis was so enthusiastic and we loved his passion for Greece and all the history he knows. Great conversations during our whole time. Highly recommend!! Great value for the price!!
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback and recommendation! We’re delighted you had such a great experience with Periklis.
We had a wonderful tour with Giorgos from Athens to Marathon. His car was clean and spacious and his driving was excellent. He provided a great narrative during our tour covering Greek history, the Marathon battle, and the marathon running race. He was very personable and also shared with us stories about his family providing a personal touch. He tailored our tour around our interests. As a marathoner, particularly enjoyed the marathon start line, driving along the marathon route, and the finish stadium. Definitely a highlight of our Greek trip! I would highly recommend a tour with Giorgos!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted you enjoyed your tour with Giorgos and that it was such a memorable highlight of your trip.
Many stops and a variety of sights trip includes wonderful maeathon museum and trip to battlefield. Our guide pericles was great0 very friendly and knew the subject he went out of his way to give us a great experience a very full half day and we'll worth it
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re very glad you enjoyed the tour and your time with Pericles.
We had a great time seeing and learning about marathon and the race/battle that took place. It was a great time We saw the battlefield, two museums, the old Olympic village and much more
Thank you for sharing! We’re so glad you enjoyed learning about Marathon and visiting all those historic sites.
We toured the marathon area including the start and finish of the races and historical events. We saw several museums and monuments and the site the athenians from the battle of marathon were buried in. Highly recommend
Thank you for your kind words and recommendation! We’re so glad you enjoyed the Marathon tour.
My husband was particularly excited to take this tour since he is a marathon runner, and our guide, Dimitrios, really gave us a great overview of the roots of the marathon. He was very friendly and had some fun stories of the history as we moved to different stops on the trip. (He also recommended my new favorite pastry, bougatsa.) You see both the start of the Athens marathon and the end point at the stadium and follow the route along different stops. The Marathon museum was definitely worth the few euros for admission and contained a fascinating timeline of the modern marathon with many artifacts dating from the first modern Olympic marathon until about the 2000 games. The historical battle of Marathon museum was a bit overpriced, and you could see an equal number of artifacts at the National Archeological Museum in Athens instead. Lake Marathon and the Marathon Tomb were both interesting outdoor stops, as was the Greek and Egyptian temple. Because it was a private tour we could set our own pace at all the stops, which was really nice because we never felt rushed. Overall, we would highly recommend this tour of you love running or are a history buff, and we’d recommend any tour guided by Dimitrios!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled your husband enjoyed exploring the roots of the marathon, and we're glad Dimitrios made the experience special for both of you. Hope you keep enjoying bougatsa and Greek history!
This was a very fun half-day trip! Dimitris was a wonderful guide who took us to some very interesting places. I enjoyed the Marathon Museum, complete with Olympic history and some Olympic torches. It was a great, small, comprehensive museum that only cost €2 per person. The Marathon dam had beautiful views of the countryside and water. We also saw the tombs of Marathon, the archeological museum, and the battlefield before ending at the Egyptian site and oceanfront. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! I'm very happy you enjoyed the tour and all the fascinating sites—Dimitris will be glad to hear your kind words!
