Our driver, Panos, was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful in every way. Through the long drive he remained amusing, patient and seemingly tireless. It was a wonderful day!
Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted to hear Panos made your experience enjoyable and memorable. We'll be sure to share your feedback with him.
Highly recommend everyone book this tour with Manos and Vasso. Our driver Manos was awesome, caring (kept asking if we needed water or a stop to take a break), and funny. And we are so glad we paid extra for an English speaking guide because Vasso made it well worth it. She was full of information and kept it interesting, my teens were engaged the whole time of the tour, never bored once! Love the place they recommended for lunch, perfect spot! Thank you so much Manos and Vasso for such an incredible day.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your tour with Manos and Vasso. They truly make every experience special. We’re glad the lunch recommendation was a hit!
Andreas took us on a private Athen and Poseidon tours. He also transferred us to the train station. He was so enjoyable and knowledgeable. He made us feel like family. After our first tour and throughout our trip he was contacting us with restaurant ,site seeing options and just making sure things were going well. When we arrived at the train station he insisted on escorting us in to make sure we found our train. It was a good thing. Our departure time had changed and we had not been notified there by missing our train. He rearranged tickets for our new departure,contacted our next hotel reservation, arranged to hold our bags and pick us up for our new departure. He went above and beyond. We were so thankful he was there for us making our trip just that more enjoyable. Greece we will be back and Andreas you will be our first choice! Thank you.

This was such a great tour! Our guide, Manos, was friendly and knowledgeable. He went out of his way to make sure we got amazing pictures and had a great time. I highly recommend doing this private tour.

Four friends scheduled a full day tour to Delphi with a stop at a monastery along the way. We also paid extra for a private tour guide to walk us through Delphi museum and the ruins. Chris was a great driver and was very knowledgeable. He took us to a delicious restaurant with a wonderful view for lunch. Even with some car trouble on the way home, he made sure our safety was a priority. We made it back to our hotel safe and sound and even beat the traffic due to the delay!
Thank you, Renee! We're thrilled you had such a great experience with Chris and the tour. It’s wonderful to hear everything went smoothly despite the hiccup, and your kind words mean so much to us!
Our guide, Andreas, was amazing. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. We really enjoyed our trip. The day started from Plaka so the day was long but everything went great .
Thank you, Mike! We're thrilled to hear you had a great trip with Andreas and enjoyed the day. It’s wonderful knowing everything went smoothly. We hope to see you again on another adventure!
Manos from Olive Sea Travel is an excellent driver. He has a great sense of humor and loves to share his depth of knowledge. The car was clean and comfortable. He made a few impromptu stops and is a professional photographer (so that’s an added bonus). We had a great day trip to Delphi.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that Manos made your trip to Delphi enjoyable and memorable. Your comments about his skills and professionalism mean a lot to us!
Andreas was very well informed with the history of the area and made the journey most enjoyable as well as educational. I/we would highly recommend hiring him for your guiding and driving requirements.

Visited Delphi, our driver MANOS was spectacular. Safe driver, very knowledgeable, passion about Greece and loves sharing history and traditions. Very knowledgeable. Gave us the perfect amount of time to tour wherever we were, but he was flexible if we needed. Great recommendations for other day tours. Great food, local recommendations the usual tourist doesn’t get to see! Would highly recommend! MANOS was our driver for three days. Would definitely ask for him again when we return.
