Tour di 7 giorni della Grecia settentrionale – Meteora, Kastoria e Salonicco

This trip for 9 (family and friends) included a great itinerary, and we couldn’t have been happier with our excellent guide Panos.

What an amazing trip! Visiting Ancient Greece has been on my bucket list for years and this tour ticked box. Our highly experienced driver Aggelos’ knowledge of Ancient Greece only enhanced every aspect! All the accommodation was excellent. I would highly recommend Private Greek Tours .

This was an inspiring trip that covered so much of the Ancient Greek history plus covering the country of Greece in our travels from place to place. Well paced, amazing history, great country, great people and great food. Loved every minute of the tour.😁

Our tour with Aggelos as our driver was amazing! His passion and knowledge for his country and the rich history he shared with us was outstanding. He made our travel very comfortable and met all our requirements. The accommodation was absolutely fantastic, from quaint and immersive in villages to central and 5 star in the cities. We couldn’t ask for more. Thank you Aggelos from Private Greek tours for an experience never to be forgotten .

The tour introduced us to the ancient history of Greece. It was bloody amazing to be reminded of the role the greek region played in the evolution of our western society. Driver was fabulous, his knowledge of the history made it all "come alive". Huge thanks to Aggelos. Accomodation was skilfully chosen, another highlight. Greece has soooo much history and we congratulate the efforts that are being made to make it accessible to the visiting public. So important for a balanced understanding of the world we live in to have an understanding of the events our 5000+ years that have lead to where we are today. Excellent roadways, always felt extremely safe, at all times of the day. To stand at Olympia on a site that has been used from 5000bc to today - is mind blowing.

Of the best Trips I've ever hired: friendly, professional, available. Always clean cars, always punctual and helpful drivers. Special mention for Mrs. Effie and for Mr. Aggelos, for his education and attention to detail so that everything always goes for the best. I advise all those looking for a personalized itinerary in Greece, with all the security and affordable prices.

I wish I could give this tour 10 stars!! Spyros was nothing short of amazing. The cost of the trip was very affordable, but after going, I would have paid double for the experience. Spyros was our private driver for the entire tour. He was knowledgeable about all of the locations and gave us a complete historical run down prior to going to every museum, archeological site, monastery, etc…. We stayed in a four star hotel every night and looked forward to a traditional Greek breakfast at every stop. Spyros was prompt every morning and made sure to point out all the important locations and local restaurants we should try. If we are ever able to make it back, Spyros WILL be our guide. Ask for him by name and you will not be disappointed!!!

Our archeological tour of mainland Greece was amazing. Our private tour guide & driver George made it even more enjoyable. He’d tailor our stops to avoid large groups and suggest times to minimise the heat. His knowledge of the sites was vast. We even bumped into 3 other tour guides all named George, believe it or not. Must be a company policy to hire guides & drivers named George - ha ha ha. Our George navigated the best roads too as Greece had a biblical flood just few days earlier and some of the roads were still closed. We just felt at home on this trip and accommodation was great as well. We all gave it 5 stars out of 5 !!!

We booked the 7 Day Ancient Greece tour with a private driver. We had an excellent 7 days and the driver, Spiros was very reliable, always being on time. He was courteous and exemplary in safety matters when driving. Whenever we were visiting sites, he would ensure the car and our personal affects were safe. We had no concerns throughout the tour regarding our belongings or personal safety. We were in Meteora on the Orthodox Good Friday. The monastery opened later than usual, which in turn caused a problem with meeting the guide for the Vergina visit. Spiros stepped in and rearranged with the guide so as to not shorten the monastery visit, which was one of our "must-see". Spiros has an amicable nature which serves to make the long daily journeys pass easily and communications with local inhabitants effectively. He provided excellent suggestions as where to dine at nearly all the stopping points, and was on friendly terms with the patrons of the various establishments. He has a genuine interest in ensuring that his customers achieve their objective to enjoy their visit to Greece. In terms of the itinerary, as we have chosen Ancient Greece tour, we were visiting Ancient Ruins most of the time. We had a guide for Mycenae, Epidaudus, Delphi, Vergina, Thessaloniki and Pella. We regretted not booking a tour guide for Olympia. We highly recommend booking tour guides for all the sites, as the guides' explanations enhanced the visits. In terms of the itinerary, we consider the visit to Sparta was disappointing, and frankly a waste of time due to the poor state of the ruins, and subject matter. Additionally the driving time to Naousa and Aristotle's school was underwhelming. However, the other 95% of the itinerary are great sites to visit and see. Note that as there were only 2 of us, we were driven in a small car which fit us and our luggage well. It was fit for purpose for our journey. We were both average built. If you are tall and of a larger built, you may want to make it clear to the company for a bigger car.

Tailored to suit us, Nikos organised our tour. We recommend this operator to everyone. It was George who provided the actual amazing companionship. His expert advise , history, mythology, local experience, review of eating places, humour, lively discussions, trivia etc etc. kept us entertained all through the time from collecting us and leaving us back at the airport. He is a very safe and helpful driver as well. Thank you both Nikos and George.
