Terrific Guide in Athens - Book him!

We can’t say enough about Jim. He has perfect English, he’s knowledgeable, he’s a good driver and he’s friendly. He took us to the major spots in Athens and was forgiving that our day ran long. If I was considering ANY tour in Athens. I would contact him first.

Great tour and guide

We booked through toursbylocals and had a great day with Kostas seeing the highlights of Athens and temple of Poseidon. The minivan was excellent, water was provided, and we stopped at a great place for lunch. Everyone enjoyed the tour, highly recommended.
