Best in Athens
We have traveled with Alexis and his drivers since 2021 and have always been super satisfied! It is the best taxi company in all of Athens. Alexis and his team are safe, pleasant, and incredibly knowledgeable guides. No question is left unanswered and you get many tips.

Kära camillaaJ7815DL,
Att ha fått köra er sedan 2021 och att ni fortfarande känner er lika trygga och nöjda idag betyder oerhört mycket för mig, tack för att ni tar er tid att skriva detta.
Att vara det bästa taxiföretaget i hela Aten är något jag och hela teamet arbetar mot varje dag, så det värmer verkligen att höra att ni upplevt oss så pålitliga, trevliga och kunniga genom åren. Att aldrig lämna en fråga obesvarad och alltid dela med oss av lokala tips är precis den känslan jag vill att varje resa i vår Mercedes-Benz genom Aten ska ge.
Tack för er långa trohet, jag ser fram emot att få välkomna er tillbaka snart igen.
Best Regards, Alexis of Athens Taxi Wagon

Amazing private tour guide!
Alex was amazing. He took us around Athens so we could get pictures and share information about historical landmarks. This was the second time I used his service and will definitely use him again if I return back to Athens. I highly recommend Alex and his company!

The excursion was a pleasant experience
When our ship was docked in Piraeus, we booked an excursion using Athens Taxi Wagon and we enjoyed it from start to finish. The booking process was fast and simple.
Alexis picked us on time and we first visited Acropolis before it got crowded. Also, a licensed guide was arranged for us. We then drove around Athens and Alexis showed us many landmarks no to be missed. Overall, it remains to be a memorable experience.
Operator response
Dear Philip H, @philiphM4236HI,
Thank you very much for sharing your experience and for choosing Athens Taxi Wagon during your stop in Piraeus. I am very pleased to know that the booking process was smooth, the timing worked perfectly, and that visiting the Acropolis early with a licensed guide helped you enjoy the site without crowds. It is also great to hear that the city drive and landmarks made the excursion memorable from start to finish. We truly appreciate your kind words and would be happy to assist you again with private tours, airport transfers, or day trips in Athens.
Best Regards,Alexis of Athens Taxi Wagon.

More than transportation service
During our visit to Greece in September and October 2025, we had several days at the start and at the end of our trip. So, we decided to see as much as possible and we did a quick research. We then used Athens Taxi Wagon, and it turned out to be a correct decision.
On the first day we went on a city tour opting for a licensed guide. The entire day was wonderful. The guide shared interesting facts about history and culture. We had smooth access to the main attractions. Our driver, Alexis, mentioned that while he also knows the history well, Greek regulations do not allow drivers to guide inside sites. We appreciated the clarity.
After that first day, Alexis continued with us for the rest of our travels, and very quickly he became much more than just a driver. He truly felt like a friend. He took us to Meteora, which is absolutely unforgettable, and along the way he stopped at special places we never would have found on our own. We saw beautiful countryside, charming towns, and viewpoints that made the journey just as memorable as the destinations.
Without Athens Taxi Wagon, we would never have experienced Greece in this way or met someone like Alexis who added so much warmth, insight, and care to our trip. They also arranged our final transfer back to Athens, which was seamless and stress free.
We genuinely recommend Athens Taxi Wagon not only for city tours, but also for longer trips throughout Greece. It was far better than renting a car, and the personal touch made all the difference.
Operator response
Dear EmanuelGemmu,
Thank you sincerely for such a heartfelt and beautifully written review. Reading about your journey through Greece and the moments you shared with us truly means a lot. I am very glad that your first city tour with the licensed guide set the tone for your stay and that the explanations and smooth access helped you enjoy Athens with ease and clarity. Traveling together afterward to Meteora and other special places was a real pleasure, and I am especially happy to know that those unexpected stops, views, and small towns made the journey as memorable as the destinations themselves. Becoming part of your trip beyond simply providing transportation is exactly the experience we aim to offer, with care, honesty, and a personal approach. Thank you as well for your trust in arranging your final transfer back to Athens and for your strong recommendation. It would be a genuine pleasure to welcome you again and to assist you again with private tours, airport transfers, or day trips in Athens.
Best Regards,
Alexis of Athens Taxi Wagon.

Athens Wagon City Tour
We had a fantastic day with Spiros! He was kind, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable, which truly enhanced our time in Athens. From the moment he picked us up at the Port of Piraeus, we felt completely at ease.
Our tour began with a visit to the iconic Acropolis, where Spiros shared fascinating insights into its ancient history, including stories about the Parthenon and the origins of democracy. After exploring the site, he took us to a wonderful local restaurant he recommended — the food was absolutely delicious and felt authentically Greek.
In the afternoon, we toured more of the city's highlights, including the historic Panathenaic Stadium — the only stadium in the world built entirely of marble and home to the first modern Olympic Games in 1896. We also witnessed the ceremonial Changing of the Guards at the Hellenic Parliament, a tradition steeped in history and national pride.
Athens Taxi Wagon exceeded our expectations, and Spiros made it a truly memorable day. We would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone visiting Athens!

Dear Freedom97444,

Clean, fun ride
The taxi driver was so sweet and curtious. He made sure we were comfortable and took great care that we saw all the highlights of the city. To top it off, he took us to a fabulous restaurant for lunch and ordered us our meal since we didn't speak Greek. We couldn't have seen all the highlights of the city without his guidance.
I highly recommend taxi wagon.

Great service
Athens Taxi Wagon was great. Responded to my What’s App inquiry and further messages promptly.
Spiro was our driver for the day. He picked us at the cruise terminal and took us to all the major highlights of Athens city, found us a great place on the beach for lunch, down to the Poseidin Temple then to the airport. He was informative, attentive and looked after us very well. He made our last day in Greece memorable.
Would recommend Athens Taxi Wagon.
