Although I driver was great he missed out the Palamidi Castle and took us straight to the town. I would check you get to see everything for the price we paid
Hello ! I would like to inform you that the castle is not in the basic itinerary and it’s clearly written as optional. The funny thing is that we had enough time to visit the castle too, but you didn’t ask the driver. Our first priority is you to have a good time and of course see even more than is written in the itinerary ! So I would like to ask to have a second look at that itinerary and please modify the unfair review .

Fascinating history plus some surprises - especially the Corinth Canal. Our tour guide shared stories from the past, local knowledge and culture too.
We are really glad that you had a great time!! Thank you for your review!
Marios was our tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and courteous. We had an absolutely wonderful day! I would highly recommend this tour!
We are really happy that you had a wonderful day!! We hope to see you again in the future!!
There were last minute delays with having to use tenders at the port but company was very responsive. Driver/guide Marius was waiting for us. He tailored the day totally based upon our interests and priorities. His knowledge of the area allowed us to avoid traffic and made an extra stop at ancient Corinth possible. Very professional and exceptional way to experience the archeological remains of Ancient Greece.
Dear Rebecca, thank you very much for your kind words. We hope to serve you again in the future!!
