This tour offers a fascinating journey through ancient Greece, from the iconic Corinth Canal to the ruins of Ancient Corinth and the Archaeological Museum. The guided experience is rich with history, and the stop at Loutraki for a seaside lunch is a lovely touch
Alec was our driver and Natilie was our guide at Ancient Corinthian ruins - both were excellent - very knowledgeable and very flexible! Im so glad we booked this private tour (6 of us). I wouldn’t do it any other way and Im so glad we took the time to go there. We ended with a fabulous setting for dinner right in the Corinthian shore. Alec even timed everything so we could end our trip with the sunset- beautiful!
Wonderful ❤️ the travelling experience was amazing and would thank you all the stuff and employees in this company.💕💕
Chris was an outstanding driver who added so much to our experience. He was very knowledgable and friendly. He gave us the right advice on a beautiful seaside lunch, and added a lot of background information to make our tour an excellent experience. Our guide at Corinth was also very knowledgable and took the time to give us in-depth knowledge about the museum and archeological site.
This was the final tour we had on our trip to Greece. Mikal was a great driver and guide. My friend and I both agree this to be our favorite tour! We were given a grand tour of the city and ruins.
What a wonderful tour. It was very moving to walk in the footsteps of Paul. We had a wonderful driver and tour guide.
The Driver and Tour Guild were both awesome. Very moving tour for Christians. We were very pleased and highly recommended getting out of Athens for some country scenery.
