An amazing experience and beautiful memories of Athens!

Vasilis was extremely friendly, welcoming, and professional throughout the entire photoshoot. He made the experience feel relaxed, natural, and enjoyable from start to finish. Beyond being a talented photographer, he was incredibly helpful, sharing valuable tips about Athens and offering fascinating insights into the city's history, culture, and local life. His knowledge and enthusiasm added so much to the experience. The final photos turned out fantastic and exceeded my expectations. I couldn't be happier with the results. It was truly a pleasure meeting him, and I would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Athens.

Amazing photographer

Amazing experience with Dina and Vasilis. I met Dina at the metro station at old town Athens. We walked around old town and the top of the hill to see the acropolis view. We took photographs on the way. I changed into another outfit midway. Dina was the sweetest photographer ever! Loved the experience.

Wonderful Surprise Proposal

Vasilis was amazing! We had issues on our end and were late to the photos but he worked with the time we had left and made it feel so special. He and my fiance planned a surprise proposal and it was so beautiful. He showed us parts of Old Athens that are less crowded and the photo opportunities were abundant. I highly recommend.

Special moments at the Acropolis

This was one of the best things I have done on holiday. My son wanted to see the sights of Athens as he had been studying Greek history at school. We booked a late tour and met outside the Acropolis entrance. Vasilis was incredibly knowledgeable, and I had a little concern that it would engage my very active 10-year-old. I need not worry, Vasilis engaged him every step of the way and kept the conversation at a level my son understood. We walked and talked and the photographs we being taken at natural stops sometimes I had not realised. Vasilis captured some very special moments. Now that I am back home I will go visit the missing sister and let her know her sisters still think of her - The Caryatids of Erechtheion. This ended up being a very special trip. Thank you again for helping me make memories with my son Vasilis.

Operator response

Thank you so much for these kind words! Talking about visiting the missing Caryatid shows that you have really connected with my country and its history! I am very happy you have enjoyed your visit! Your son is a delight to hang out with! Always welcome! Vasilis Germanis @personalphotographerinathens PhotoToursinAthens.com

Best Decision in Athens

Vasilis was one of the best decisions we made in Athens. He is a great tour guide with a wealth of knowledge and a passion about Athens since that is his home town. He is a great photographer and captured beautiful images of us and our group as we were exploring the city. Anyone considering a photographer, should book his 2 day picture tour. You'll casually explore all the great sights. Thank you again for everything !!

Absolute master of photography - highly recommend

Vassili is an amazing photographer who delivered more than expected. He has a great eye, knows all the hidden spots around the Acropolis and made my kids very much at ease, so that the photos looked very natural. He is a master of lights and we got amazing colours.

Operator response

It was such fun to meet you and photograph you! Your little ones were my best models ever! I am happy to know you have enjoyed your time with me, and I have offered you some happy memories from my city! You are always welcome back! Vasilis @personalphotographerinathens PhotoToursinAthens.com
