Wonderful day and guide!!!

Kyriakos Our driver and information sharer was great! Had water & snacks for us on a very hot day. The day was leisurely and nice, not a rush. We got a wonderful tour of the monastery and Delphi! Then a great lunch in the coolest mountain town on our way back. Well worth the $ and this was a great way to see all of it without the crowds. The. other thing that was great is that he picked us and our luggage up at the Marina and then drove to show us great things to do around our stay near the acropolis and then dropped us off there at the end of the day. I would highly recommend him & this trip!! 💙🇬🇷

An unforgettable trip !!! Well done !!!

The service was fabulous!! The vehicle is very nice with lots of comforts, making the trip and all transmissions very easy and comfortable. Dimitris (driver) wins you, from the first moment with his kindness, smile and professional, as well. Not only the above skills of Dimitris were amazing but also the feeling of security and the information that you receive of him. He gives also that he is educated person, knowing lots concerning the history of Greece. Moreover, he speaks fluent English and this make very easy the communication!!! Certainly, I got the best memories from this trip!!!
