For Christmas time George helped us to have an unforgettable day tour. We were a group of 6 people from Italy and he dedicated to us the Christmas Eve, 24th of December. We went to visit the 'The Temple of Poseidon' at Sounion which is like 1 hour and something from the old town. Before and after we made some stops and we also had a lunch in an amazing place in a village we passed through, fresh fish and wonderful view :) With George we arranged also the transfer from/to airport. I highly recommend him for a day tours and/or other services. Thank you very much George and see you soon!

Being a former English teacher, the guide had impeccable English and was very knowledgeable about the sites. She met us at the port as requested and worked with us in planning our 8 hour tour. She knew several ways to get around the lines at the Acropolis and led us to an excellent Greek restaurant in the Plaka area. We saw all the sites that we had planned.

1 On the description it says bottle water is included, so we didn't prepare our own. However the driver didn't bring us any so we ended up buying 3 euro a bottle water. 2 The driver just dropped us off and didn't go with us for visits. We got lost couple of times while the time is very precious as a shore excursion from cruise. It actually served just like a taxi.
