Best way to see Athens

Having a private tour guide and driver is the only way to really see Athens. This is my third visit but first with Silva Tours. Our guide, Anastassia Sofou and driver Triamtafylos Michailidis were the perfect team. Anastassia knows all of the interesting facts and behind the scenes details about the Acropolis, each of the monuments and gave us just enough info on the museum tour. She constantly took our pictures so we can show we were there! If you go to Athens and really want to enjoy yourself while learning about the sites, ask for Anastassia and definitely book through Silva Tours.
