He shared so many fascinating insights along the way and made the long drives feel short and enjoyable. The vehicle was comfortable and clean, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We felt well taken care of and learned so much about Greece’s culture and past. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting!

This was an amazing tour, especially with our ace guide, Yannis. If you are a history buff and like the detail, this is the trip for you. It is two long days, from about 9 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. the first day, and from 8: a.m. until 7:00 p.m. the second day. Yannis was great--he is an Ancient Greece history expert and very willing to share his knowledge. We were able to determine some of our itinerary for this trip, too. Great description of the Thermopylae battle and the Oracle of Delphi. Meteora was phenomenal. Very highly recommended. Ask for Yannis.
