We spent Christmas in Athens and wanted one day outside the city. We chose the trip to Cape Sounion and Nikos because of his interest in history and archaeology. Because of the time of the year, we were not interested in a beach stop but wanted a coastal drive and munch in a local restaurant. We also asked him to suggest anything else of interest in the area. He collected us from our hotel at 9.30 a.m. The drive to Cape Sounion was stunningly beautiful. On the way, he provided interesting information about ancient and modern Athens. He was very easy to talk to, and we enjoyed the conversation. At Sounion ,we had all the time we wanted to explore the temple precinct, soak up the atmosphere and marvel at the play of sea, distant mountains and light. Afterwards , he took us to the ancient silver mines in Lavrio. This area was new to us. Nikos gave us detailed explanations of the history of the area, the ancient mining processes and also showed us the stone theatre. Afterwards, we went to a small taverna for an excellent local. lunch . We arrived back at the hotel shortly before five.
Nikos was an exceedingly pleasant and knowledgeable companion. He was thoughtful and understanding of my reduced mobility and completely fulfilled all our expectations for the day.

Could Not Have Been Better
Ioannis provided the perfect tour of the coastal area, tailoring it to what I was interested in seeing and doing. I think the best part is that he is a really great guy. He’s interesting and funny. Ioannis shares his perspective of a life in Athens and I learned a lot. He’s also a very good driver.

Excellent tour, Highly Recommend
We booked a tour with Apostolis for the Highlights and Gems of Santorini by Car for 8 people (family and friends). Unfortunately, Apostolis was ill on the day of our tour so he had one of his colleagues, Agnes lead the tour along with a driver. They met us at the top of the cable car as we were visiting Santorini via a cruise ship. This all day tour took us to both ends of the island, walking through Oia, visiting both Black Beaches, Red Beach, famous temples and the highest place on the island, a Monastery. As we were a larger group, it would have been helpful to have whisperers. I highly recommend this tour. We visited in late October so it was definitely less crowded and the weather was excellent.
