My friend and I so enjoyed our time with Stavros. We found him to be way more interesting than the sites of Athens. We were there during a transportation strike so we learned a lot about modern Greece society and politics. I appreciated his safely guiding us around the city and to the old sites, which helped us so much in getting our bearings. In four hours I felt like I had seen the important places, got great recommendations on where to spend the afternoon, made a new friend, and learned a lot about what it's like to be an Athenian today. A highlight for me was sitting on Philopappos Hill and drinking a coffee with my new friend, Stavros. I also appreciated how much he looked after me and answered my questions before I even booked. I will use him again if I ever make it back to Athens.
