Nikos Made the Delphi Trip Ultimate
We had a group of 5 adults and were able to arrange a full-day Delphi trip from Alimos on June 5, 2025. Nikos was an excellent guide and a wealth of information. From picking us up at our VRBO to stopping for coffee and pastries to get an early morning off to a good start, everyone in our group had a wonderful day. We were able to make modifications as the trip progressed that best suited our group and Nikos offered great workable options. History, mythology and humor flowed naturally throughout the trip and we remained captivated and entertained throughout. Our lunch stop was spectacular as well, for both food and view.
I highly recommend Nikos and the Delphi experience.

Fantastic guide
Ioannis was a wonderful guide. He is very knowledgeable about this history of Greece. He took up on the Cape Sounio tour.
Ioannis was prompt, friendly, passionate about Greece. He truly went out of his was to meet any requests we had. He chose a wonderful lunch spot for us along the coast, which had the freshest seafood and a stunning view. He made sure we had a wonderful table, which was kind gesture.
He found us a perfect spot along the coast free from the crowds, we went on our tour on a Greek holiday, so the beaches were unusually busy.
I highly recommend Ioannis for any tour you choose.

Above and beyond
I took a solo tour with Thomas to the Peloponnese. I booked it on a whim for my first day in Athens. Although jet-lagged, it was a great experience to get out of the city and see some impressive history beyond Athens. Thomas went above and beyond to ensure I had a great day filled with lively conversation and some special stops. I highly recommend the tour and Thomas who is very passionate about Greek history and what he does.

Cape Sounio and the Temple of Poseidon
Our tour to Cape Sounio was a wonderful blend of natural beauty and cultural insight. The drive along the Athenian Riviera was absolutely stunning, with sweeping views of the coastline and the Aegean Sea. Ioannis offered insightful and engaging commentary throughout the drive. His deep knowledge of Greek history and mythology was impressive, but what made it even more special was the personal connection he shared with the area (thank you for sharing with us!!). The temple itself perched above the sea is beautiful and the view from the cliffs is spectacular!
