This was a private tour, leonidas went above and beyond for us. He picked us up from our hotel in athens, was very nice and polite drove us to all the stops and even gave us some tips of malls, places to eat and drink around Greece. Definitely would recommend.
Thank you very much for review! We are glad that you enjoyed the tour!!
All the places are very historic, but for people who are not into so much of history like my group. I do not recommended to go these places especially during summer season.
Hello! Thank you for your review. The excursion does not include certified guide and it is written clearly at the inclusions and exclusions part. If you had asked we could provide one with extra cost!
