Hi there! Nice to meet you

Nikos

Born and raised in Athens, I have explored since I was a kid the secrets of this amazing city and the endless beauties of Greece. My passion is to discover hidden treasures, places with exceptional charm and untold stories, known only to a few people, the true explorers. Then, to show these gems to other people, sharing this precious knowledge. This led me to make my passion my profession, becoming a documentary filmmaker.

Travelling and knowing new cultures is a mindset for me. To appease this wanderlust I have travelled for 10 years around the world, studied and lived in France, India and Cameroon, collecting extraordinary experiences along the way.

It will be my pleasure and honour to share with you the best kept secrets of my city, country and culture, offering you a unique, vivid experience.

We really enjoyed our trip to Cape Sounio and the Temple of Poseidon with Nikos. We arranged to be picked up at our cruise terminal and dropped off at our hotel in the afternoon. All of our communications and arrangements went smoothly and we had a fantastic day. Nikos is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and we greatly enjoyed his commentary and company. And he was very accommodating to two senior ladies and our preferences as to timing, pace, etc. We highly recommend Nikos to anyone looking for a tour of the area!Wonderful day with Nikos!

We had a really great day with Nikos . He is knowledgeable and each place we visited was worthwhile. He can tell you the stories and knows his history, to bring it to life. We covered a lot in a day and reaching Epidaurus was really special. We would thoroughly recommend him as your guide. Epidaurus, Corinth, Mycenae, Nafplio

We had a wonderful day tour with Nikos. We came in on a cruise ship and Nikos made it so easy for us picking us up (with luggage) at our disembarkation terminal. His knowledge of the area, of all of Greece and the region, was perfect for us. We enjoyed his sharing. We loved all of the stops on this tour: Poseidon Temple, Silver Mines area, ancient amphitheater, picture taking stops along the drive, and lunch was delicious. We highly recommend Nikos as a guide of choice with, With Locals.Excellent tour with Nikos

Even though it’s a long day trip, I highly recommend spending the time to visit Delphi. It was a trip to remember for a lifetime! Nikos was a great tour guide and very personable. Do not miss out visiting this site. Magical destination!

Nikos was a great guide. He was punctual, flexible and interesting and went out of his way to make sure we enjoyed our day. Thoroughly recommended.

My husband and I spent 2 fantastic days with Nikos - the first to visit Delphi and the next to visit Sounio. We had already spent 2 weeks touring ancient sites in Turkey and the Cyclades with very knowledgeable guides so one would think we were saturated with ancient history. On the contrary, Nikos brought all the ancient history alive and made us feel like we had gone back in time. His knowledge of archaeology and history is impressive and he is a current day philosopher as well. We discussed current day Greek life intertwined with the lives of the mythical Greek gods. Very soon, we had a new friend.

Had booked the trip to the temple of Poseidon - and had a fantastic day with good food and fascinating experiences. Nikos arranged the whole trip to suit everyone's needs - not least my walking-impaired father's pace. It was both cozy and interesting - Nikos is a great storyteller. We definitely recommend Nikos. Best day in Athens!Fantastic!
