The person who drove was awesome. We did not have great weather but he made sure that we make the most out of the trip. He even took us to a couple of places not in the itenerary and which i feel is a must see. Overall a very excellent trip only because our driver/guide.

Corinth tour was unforgettable!

We appreciate the knowledge that our guide had of the history of Greece! He told us many interesting things about Corinth, as well as Athens, and the entire country of Greece. The only thing that would have made the tour better would have been a little more time to spend in Old Corinth.

Informative and relaxed

Odysseus was our guide and he was excellent!! He was very very knowledgable and great to have a chat to. Odysseus has great English. Being a small group, just my boyfriend and I we could ask lots of questions and go at our pace, the tour wasn't rushed. I would recommend this one.
