We had a great day traveling from Athens to Corinth with Constantine! He picked us up at the Athens cruise port; we traveled to Corinth to see the canal, ancient Corinth, the port of Kenchreai, and some beautiful Greek coastal views. He even dropped us at our hotel near the airport! We couldn’t have asked for a better day or driver. Thank you, Constantine (and Theodores Travel)!
Manos was a knowledgeable and courteous tour guide. The trip was extremely informative and we saw a great deal of Athens in a short time. We later enjoyed a very good dinner of authentic Greek food, which was part of the tour. Manos was amiable and friendly and we thoroughly enjoyed our day.
Hello there, Thank you for choosing Theodores Travel! We’re so glad to hear you had a wonderful experience with Manos. It’s great that his knowledge, courtesy, and friendly approach made your tour both informative and enjoyable, allowing you to see so much of Athens in a short time. We’re also happy you enjoyed the authentic Greek dinner as part of your experience. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you again soon!
An unforgettable experience, led by an excellent guide who provided us with knowledge, cordiality and quality services.
We couldn't have been happier with this tour and our driver/guide Sebastian. In contrast our our busy city tour of Athens the previous day this was an enjoyable countryside drive with many fewer tourists and interesting stops like the Corinth canal. Sebastian was very accommodating of our requests, like finding a store that sold a specific and needed medical item. At our request he found an alternate place for lunch at a wonderful seaside restaurant in a lovely town and setting. (As opposed to the included lunch) . We had hoped that we could shorten the day to about 6 hours, as 8 hour tours are usually too long for us but that proved impossible. Because of the relaxing nature and wonderful sights we found the full experience very worthwhile.
Hi there, Thank you for choosing Theodores Travel. We are so pleased to know you had a great time besides Sebastian who made your trip accommodating. Hoping to see you soon again.
I don't often write reviews, but I thought this tour warranted one. It was absolutely amazing! If you are thinking about booking with Theodores Private Tours! You won't be disappointed. Paddy was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable and professional, took his time explaining important facts at each spot. After the long visits, we had our lunch at a designated local restaurant where we have taste of local authentic food and snacks, beer is also included. Amazing.
Hi Edward, Thank you for choosing Theodores Travel. We are pleased to know you enjoyed your trip besides Paddy who went above and beyond to make your trip memorable. Hoping to see you soon again.
Amazing experience, with details of history and local cuisine given by the best Guide we could have. Attentive to everyone, patiently answered our requests and took care of my parents who could not walk so much. Super recommend!!!
Thank you for your review it means alot to us. We are happy to know you enjoyed your day in Athens. Hoping to see you soon again.
We were with John for a day and a half tours. The views were amazing. The drive was relaxing and educational. But most important was our driver John. He had an unusual challenge. We were all in our 70’s. One of us was bound to a walker. Often the terrain was impossible for one of us. As the rest of us toured the fabulous ruins Jahn stay back and explained what the rest of us were viewing. He did it in such a way that Ken didn’t feel left behind. Hauling a walker in and out of the van was extra labor we all appreciated. John is so kind, friendly and went way beyond the average tour guide. When we come back, we are asking for John.

Our day tour across Athens’ historic sites, including the Isthmus of Corinth, Vouliagmeni Lake, and the Sanctuary of Hera, was unforgettable, thanks to our guide Paddy. His deep historical knowledge and engaging storytelling brought ancient Greece to life before our eyes. Each location, from the engineering marvel of Diolkos to the serene Vouliagmeni Lake, was made more fascinating through Paddy’s insights. His passion and expertise not only educated but also deeply moved us, turning what could have been a simple sightseeing trip into a profound journey through history. Paddy’s guidance made our day truly exceptional.
