“I have to give the highest regard to our very knowledgeable and respectable guide, Terry! The tour was fully packed with all promised highlights, but with ample time to at least gain an impression and beat the crowds. I am grateful that our guide was also accomodating and reassuring to my family member's walking concerns. The atmosphere was overall enjoyable for us! The lunch option was also very accomodating to our diet and still authentically greek.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,495 reviews · 45 minutes (approx.) · from $49

Review of Athens Airport private transfers, including meet and greet, vehicle sizes, pricing, luggage rules, delays, routes, and booking tips.

“Pro’s: driver was professional, prompt, and courteous. He was well on time for the pickup, was able to fit all our luggage (4 pieces), car was clean and comfortable, and walk to the car was a short distance away. Con: it took over an hour to get from the airport to downtown because he avoided the toll roads and took side streets. My assumption for a $100+ black car service is we’d be able to take the toll roads to get there faster.”

Review of Athens’ 8-hour private tour, covering the Acropolis, Agora, guard ceremony, Lycabettus, transport, costs, and practical tips.

Also aware of Athens political history it was very fun listening to the passion for his home. I will say the “shopping” stop was similar to the Turkish rug sales trips and very pushy. They advertise discounts for the tour group but the prices for “souvenirs” were very much inflated. So even at the advertised 50% off it was still slightly higher than other shops that we stopped at.
