Mycenae Epidaurus Corinth Nafplio Private Day Tour saindo de Atenas

If you are fortunate to have Panos as your driver and guide to the Peleponnese, your experience will be delightful. We were able to see the sites at our own pace, and to rest in between in his comfortable car. We left Athens at 7:30 am, were back by 6:30 pm, and had seen all the major sites with time for a leisurely lunch in Napflio. All in all, a very memorable day.

After enjoying the 2 day tour of Meteora, Delphi and Thermopyles, so much with Terry as our driver, we decided to ask for Terry again and do this day tour. Once again the experience was superb. Terry gave us a complete overview of every site on the way which makes a huge difference in the overall enjoyment. The convenience of being picked up from our hotel and the flexibility in being able to stay a bit longer in preferred sites was great. Defintely recommend this tour and Terry as the driver.

This was a very full day that we enjoyed a lot. The highlight was the Lions Gate at the Mycenae fortress and the acoustics at the Theater of Epidaurus but we also enjoyed looking down at the canal of Corinth and the lobster dinner we ordered in the charming town of Napflio was an added bonus. Also the portion of the ride through mountainous and seaside terrain was very nice. Perhaps most importantly our guide Theodore could not have been more helpful and he was a fountain of knowledge. It’s a long trip but well worth it.

My wife and I added this tour on to our itinerary almost at the last minute but oh are we glad we did! 10 hours of amazing history and awesome sites! We are historians and it seemed like every turn of the private van we had was a new Greek City State we had read about in high school/college! Even though our driver was an archeology major in college, we opted to book an additional guide. He was a windfall of knowledge and really made the ruins we were seeing pop to life! This was NOT a 20 questions quiz to see what the Americans knew from school like others tours we have taken. Instead, it was a successful attempt to make us feel like we were actually in Mycanae, Corinth, and Epidauris! Our guide and expert driver knew where to take all the great pictures and often volunteered to take them for us! This was especially true in the beautiful city of Nafplio. We would truly recommend this tour to history and non-history buffs alike. Just explain what level of knowledge you are at and what you want to see and let your driver/guide do the rest. I can truly say that the 10 hours were very engaging and went by quickly! Great job Viator and Olive Sea Travel!

We were four adults of one family, and within minutes of setting of in the air conditioned 7-seater with driver and sometime guide, Kyriakos, we knew we’d made the right choice of a private tour, rather than join a coach tour! Kyriakos gave us the history of the major sites we visited, was flexible with timing (allowing more time when a site interested us and less when it didn’t), never left us waiting when we’d finished visiting a site, and was there with water and advice whenever needed. And his recommended restaurant for lunch was spot on.

The driver and tour guide were excellent. The sites were a different era than those in our Athens tour. A lit of time traveling between locations but well worth the effort.

Andreas was an incredible tour guide and driver -- super-enthused about his job, and such a "people person"! He regaled us with stories about Greek history and culture as he shuttled us between sights. Importantly, neither my wife nor I felt hurried during any of the visits to the historical sites, even though I'm known for taking my time and going very slowly when it comes to examining ruins and exhibits and text panels and that sort of thing. Really, the visits seemed to be timed just about right. Thanks again, Andreas, for a remarkable day!

This tour was amazing. Our driver, Nasos, was wonderful. His knowledge of the area was incredible. He went above and beyond to ensure we had the absolute best time. He was so good we requested him for our tour the next day. The sites were very impressive, and we learned a tremendous amount. Highly recommended this tour company and Nasos!

The driver was really interesting, talking a lot about the history of the country. Asking if we had questions. Magnificent visit to all the sites listed in the activity. All was perfect and on time.

We booked a this tour in April 2022 (I'm writing the review quite late, and the drop down won't let me select the appropriate date). I went as part of a group of friends/family (6 adults). We had an absolutely fantastic time on this day tour. The driver was prompt and picked us up from our accommodation as arranged. We saw all sights (as promised), and the driver was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to share insights about his beautiful country. The pacing of the tour was just right for us - more time in Nafplio might have been nice, but that's a pretty insignificant complaint, really. We would absolutely recommend this day trip - definitely an experience worth the money!
