Wonderful interesting...

Wonderful interesting tour with a fantastic tour guide. We went to several very important historic sites in Athens and even went to locations not on the official itinerary.

Operator response

Thank you, Mark! It always makes us feel good knowing you enjoyed the private tour and appreciated the added touches beyond the official itinerary. Exploring Athens’ rich history with a guide who knows where to look makes all the difference—so glad it was a memorable experience for you! Warm regards, Athens Walking Tours Team

Athens Walking Tours crushed it!!!

I booked a private Athens tour through Stavros in the office. Had a very specific itinerary and he did a terrific job getting it planted - was very accommodating and easy to work with. On tour day Apollo was our guide and boy was he fantastic! Such a nice guy and extremely knowledgeable. An archaeologist, he provided us so much information on the ancient sites. Stavros accommodating my wish list meant a packed itinerary. Apollo took us through the entire day with a big smile, even though we went over time. Wouldn’t change a thing about the booking process or the tour itself.
