8 Day Christian Tour Following Apostle Paul’s steps, Corinth, Veroia, Philippoi
7 Days Customized Footsteps of St. Paul
Thanks to all staff at Private Tours Greece in helping us and being very patience in adjusting our requests so many times from the beginning to the end. Everything was very smooth from the airport pick up to drop off. We highly rate the tour packages for Christian Tour in Greece based on the Footsteps of Paul. We did this tour in the end of August 2017 with 20 people. We had a driver, Thodoris Ochtaras who were fantastic in driving and a tour guide, Averkios Vassalos, an Archaeologist, with an immersed knowledge of Archaeology at each site we visitied. We were very please with Averkios for his knowledge of Archaeology, Christian history, Greek history, Geography, and kind nature. He went above and beyond what was needed to make our trip the best trip ever! Literally the best ever as I am an experience traveller and have travelled to more than 20 countries but I have not met anybody like Averkios who is very knowledgeable, organised,observant, flexible and paid attention to every single one of us.
Overall, we highly recommend this tour company!
7-Day Private Tour to UNESCO Heritage Sites, from Peloponnese to Thessaloniki
An incredible & perfect private tour - The best company, and the best driver!
Ours was a family trip to Greece (myself and my 2 children, both young adults). We spent 11 incredible days last winter (February 2020) and from the first e-mail I exchanged with Dimitra, everything went perfect. Since the understanding of our deep interest in Ancient Greece and its historical sites, to the hotels and suggestions for the travel : Athens, Olympia, Delphi, Arachova, Nafplio, Meteora, Thessaloniki, Corinth..and a lot more. But a special chapter of this recommendation should go to our incredible, expert and funny driver Yannis : nothing would have been the same without him, his dedication, his sympathy, his (always!) professional attitude that turned this trip in an amazing and unforgettable experience. We have donde several family trips together, including other private tours, but nothing compares with Yannis, his suggestions, his company and his great friendship along the way.
In short an absolute great experience, highly recommended to tourists that love to explore the best of Greece with the such special "touch" of local feeling that Yannis share with us.
6-Day Tour Athens, Santorini, Delphi, and a Cruise to Poros and Hydra islands
We took the 6 day tour including Athens, Delphi y Santorini. Most of the experience was wanderful with some ups and downs.
Regarding the drivers: both Spyros and George were amazing. The combination of them both was hilarious: Spyros is the best driver carring for the safety at all times and George is the best photographer & knows all the details regarding Greece vocabulary that adds an extra to the trip.
Regaring the downs that make this a 4 instead of a 5 star trip:
1. We had to pay 100 euro extra for the trip to Santorini as the luggage has not included in the reservation. The tour originally includes a ferry trip to the island but the travel especialist asked us to move it to a flight without extra charge due to the possible sea conditions in these days. The reservation made did not included the bags and in the first flight we had to pay 50 euros. I asked to include the 2 bags in the returning flight as the cost when reporting them 1 day previous would have been only 40 euros however it was not changed and as the reservation was not made by me, I could not change it.
2. The private tour in santorini we made was totally different to the info shared: it did not included the wine museum and wine tasting in which I was especcially interested.
The last suggestion to pass to Cypria hotel in Athens: we were given a room with a really strong smoke smell & with pillows that stinked to cigarrette; when we asked for a change the lady in the reception first made a big show as we made the check Inn 2 hours before; however we did not noticed the pillow smell until we sit on the bed. She finally gave us another room but this kind of details when dealing with customers make the difference.
I hope that the feedback is taken and to be able to come back to greece with this company for a 5 stars trip. Maria Ll.
ANSWER FROM THE MANAGER
Dear Maria, thank you getting the time to leave your comments regarding 6 days tour in Greece.
Also thank you for your kind words. Regarding the domestic flights and the check-in luggage, let me to remind you that on our booking confirmation we mentioned that the domestic flights included 1 carry-on per persons and not 1 check-in luggage. And also, this is not included at the total cost.
These terms appear at the inclusions section and the section of useful info on tour page on our website.
I am sorry for this inconvenience, and we hope to welcome you again in the future
7-Day Private Tour to UNESCO Heritage Sites, from Peloponnese to Thessaloniki
I must say that my family and I were very pleased with the services provided by everyone at Private Tours Greece. Miss Fotini was amazing at arranging all the details of my family trip. She was quick to respond to all my emails and she also took the time to respond to all the questions that I had prior to the selection of my final private tour. We booked a 12 day trip which included: Athens, Ancient Corinth, Kalavrita, Epidaurus, Olympia, Delphi, Nafplion, Macedonia, Arachovia, Meteora, Vergina, Viera, Thessaloniki, and Santorini. I must say that we were also very pleased with our driver (our wonderful Mr. Giannis). He was above excellent!!. He was funny, patient, friendly and very knowledgeable. We had a great time with Mr. Giannis the entire time we were on the road with him (about 7 days). He was an excellent driver as well. We also met drivers: George and Spyros who were also very friendly and punctual. In addition, we were very thankful to the agency that we were given the option to hire tour guides at each site. Tour guides is a must if you want to learn as much as possible at each archeological site. Greece has a lot of history so it is totally worth it. We were also please with the selection of our hotels and the secure method of payment for our trip. I highly recommend this agency without any hesitation. They are reliable, punctual, friendly, professional, and extremely helpful.
We also visited Santorini for 2 days and unfortunately our volcano tour in the island was cancelled the day before due to bad weather condition. I quickly called Miss Fotini from Santorini to let her know of our current situation. She immediately made arrangements for an alternative ground excursion in Satorini which was amazing as well. We were so thankful that she was able to make those arrangements for us at the last minute.
I hope to use Private Tours Greece services again hopefully in 2021 to go to Crete and Turkey. I would not hesitate at all in recommending their services to all my friends and of using their services again.

2 Day Private Heritage Tour of Delphi & Meteora and Enjoy a Trip of a Lifetime
Highly recommend! Magical experience!
I highly recommend this tour and company. I contacted many tour agencies, and this one was so easy to work with as they spoke excellent english and responded immediately to all my questions and offered a very competitive price compared to other tours. They were also very accommodating to my schedule and worked out a custom tour for my party of 7. They provided a wonderful tour of central Greece. Meteora was breathtaking and unlike anything I've ever seen. Despite it's 4.5 hour drive from Athens, it was definitely worth it! Request Nikos for a driver as he made our trip so special and memorable. He was a lot of fun to talk to and was such a pleasure to spend almost three days with. He also was quite the unofficial tour guide by pointing out specific places we'd want to see or take pictures as well as giving us background and context for the sites we were seeing. We truly are so grateful to this tour company and Nikos for making our short trip to Greece magical.
2 Day Private Heritage Tour of Delphi & Meteora and Enjoy a Trip of a Lifetime
Delphi- Meteora
I was with a group of friends who planned a combination of Delphi and Meteora through this company. Although I can't speak to the planning process, the actual tour was amazing! I've been on several tours throughout the years in different countries and our guide/driver Nikos was one of the most caring, passionate, funny, professional guides I have ever encountered. The van was top-notch and cleanand equipped with bottles of water. Nikos drove carefully and was on time always! He made sure our experience was amazing. I left after Meteora earlier than my group as I had to get back to the States. Our guide helped me to not only get to the train station on time but find the right car and even the right seat on the train. I have never had a guide go above and beyond like Nico did. I highly recommend this tour company.
Private Christian Tour of Athens and Corinth following the Apostle Paul
Amazing Tour
Our family of four (kids ages 13 and 11) loved the Christian Tours in Athens & Ancient Corinth. Communication prior to our tour was wonderful. Our driver was very friendly and accommodating, doing his best to get us as close to the attractions as possible. Our tour guide was an endless wealth of information and truly a delight to spend the day with. She offered to take family photos for us every chance possible and gave us tips on how to spend the rest of our time in Athens. This tour was hands down the best we have ever taken on any of our travels. I have recommended the tour to anyone who asks about our travels to Greece.
