7-Day Private Tour to UNESCO Heritage Sites, from Peloponnese to Thessaloniki
7 Day Grand Tour
We had a fantastic time. Our Driver Nicko was the best. He was a real gentleman and nothing was ever to much trouble for him.
He gave us great advise on what was good to see and where to go. He was very informative and I would highly recommend him to any one that would like to do a private tour.
His driving skills were great and safety always came first. He was more than just a driver. Private Tours Greece should be very proud of having him. What an asset.
I must say that Private Tours Greece did do a good job in selecting great hotels (4 stars) to stay in.
A very comfortable, clean car to travel in and the best driver.
He was very good and always a gentleman gave us our space and always at our beck and call.
I will definitely use Private Tours Greece again.

7 Day Classical Tour (Private)--Effortless Classic Road Trip
When our original holiday plans were cancelled on short notice, my cousin and I found Private Greek Tours and booked their 7-Day Classical tour, just the two of us with a car and driver, start any day--perfect! The company is a pleasure to work with, the itinerary packed in a lot and was well organized, our driver Nikos was delightful, and the accommodation was satisfactory. There are some long driving days, but breaks are frequent and mostly at interesting sites. Roads are excellent. It was so nice to sit back and let someone else do the driving, and we felt like we saw way more and experienced more of real Greece than folks on a tourist bus can ever do, and for a reasonable price. A classic road trip without hassles. Includes pick up and drop off at central Athens hotels. Fabulous! No favorite places because it was all good, but Meteora and Nafplio stand out, and also ancient Olympia early in the morning when we saw the ancient stadium with no one else there at all, except for the guy mowing the grass.

Highly recommended tour company!
We recently took a one-week tour of mainland Greece, including Olympia, Delphi, Meteora, Thessaloniki and Macedonia, with Private Tours Greece and we can't recommend them highly enough. Our Mercedes minivan was very spacious and comfortable and our driver, Dimitris, was wonderful.....very knowledgeable about Greek history and accommodating to all of our needs and wishes. We had excellent local tour guides in each of the places we visited on the tour. We enjoyed all of the hotels that Private Tours Greece had selected but they also allowed us customize the choice of hotels and restaurants in several places. We especially enjoyed the Bacchus Pension, located in a small town just outside of Olympia, where the view of the countryside was outstanding and the food/wine served in the on-site restaurant was plentiful and delicious. Taking a private tour with Private Tours Greece was so much more enjoyable than it would have been driving the long distances and staying in commercial hotels on one of the big bus tours and it was certainly worth the additional cost.

Private Tour - Full day Athens & Cape Sounio plus 7 days mainland Greece
My wife and I, both in our sixties, just returned from a visit to the beautiful country GREECE, where EVERYTHING, beginning from the people all around, the sites, the cuisine are just marvellous and nature has bestowed immense beauty upon this ancient land.
We booked through PRIVATE TOURS GREECE and Madam Dimitra Katsouni, the Sales Manager was ALWAYS co-operative and very responsive at all the stages of my communication during the booking process.
I will be very ungrateful if I do not begin by thanking Mr Dimitris, the driver of our vehicle during the entire period of our tour. An excellent person with vast knowledge on the history and culture of ancient Greece, decent and sober at all times, he was more of a friend and guide than our driver, explaining everything in details and even coming up with suggestions when we were in doubt !! PRIVATE TOURS GREECE is the company with whom I would like to travel once again, if I re-visit Greece in future. Beginning from the vehicle, the hotels, the recommendations, everything was very good and very well arranged. However, like in all good things, there do happen to be certain blotches, I am compelled to say that our hotel in Thessaloniki, EGNATIA HOTEL, where we spent two nights,was simply BAD and didn't deserve to be called a proper tourist hotel. Beginning from a confusion at the front office regarding our reservation, the room, the breakfast choice, nothing was good. We could have overlooked the smaller flaws like breakfast or reservation, if at-least our room was worth a double bedded room. We had to sleep two nights on a bed slightly wider than a single bed in a cramped up room, with a toilet, where a well built person could hardly turn or twist.
My apologies to the entire team at PRIVATE TOURS GREECE for being harsh about our accommodation in Thessaloniki, in an otherwise VERY WELL ORGANISED trip, but I sincerely hope, future visitors will be assisted with a better hotel in Thessaloniki.
To sign off, my wife joins me in THANKING the entire team at PRIVATE TOURS GREECE for the wonderful goodies bag and its contents with which we were welcomed at the beginning of our tour !!
THANK YOU and GOD BLESS !
6 Day Tour to Ancient Greece to explore Peloponnese, Mythical Paths & Castles
A once in a lifetime experience
Dimitra, It is now four months since my companion and I enjoyed our wonderful tour of the Peloponnese that you arranged for us.
I look at photos and memorabilia I collected on the trip, and memories come flooding back. Your staff were so knowledgeable and helpful that the 7 days I spent on your tour were the highlight of my 7 week European holiday. A blend of ancient Greek history and spectacular, interesting scenery.
Dimitra,if I am fortunate enough to have another Greek holiday, I will certainly be in touch with you.
Thank you
Regards,

Athens and the Peloponnese
What a wonderful tour! Thank you, Dimitra, for personalizing the route for us and giving us Stathis (an expert, professional and personable driver) and Yianni (a very knowledgeable, helpful and enthusiastic guide). They made an interesting trip more wonderful and enjoyable. We got to see the archaeological and historic sites we were looking forward to, but also through Yianni's coaching, tried some charming and off-the-beaten-path tavernas and cafes for some delicious Greek meals. Wherever possible, Stathis chose roads rather than freeways so we could experience more of the country and he anticipated our desires for "photo ops" managing to stop for optimal photo taking. How refreshing to be in a comfortable van where the needs of only us 4 travelers plus driver & guide had to be considered.
The hotel accommodations were great, with plentiful breakfast buffets every day. You really provided high value for our cost.
I've been singing your praises to everyone and I hope this post helps other travelers to consider booking with Private Tours Greece. Thank you.

6 Day Tour In the Peloponnese
PTG are an excellent company to deal with, response to any communication was within 24 hours and they worked with me on the itinerary to fit in extra sites we wanted to visit. Our driver Mr Kostas is absolutely fabulous, always on time, very knowledgeable of Peloponnese and nothing was too much trouble for him. The minibus was new, air conditioned, clean and comfortable for 4 adults. The Hotel accommodation (4 star) booked was comfortable. I would highly recommend PTG for any private tour of Greece and would have no hesitation in booking with them again.

6 Days in Peloponnese and Meteora
My friend and I just got back from a wonderful trip with Private Tours. We did the 6 day tour of the Peloponnese, Delphi, and Meteora. Our driver, Nikos S., was fantastic. It was the first time in Greece for both of us, and Nikos took complete care of us, shared his love of his country and the many wonderful sites, and gave us insight into the modern and ancient culture of Greece. He made sure our site-specific guides (all excellent) knew that we were archaeologists and so the site tours were geared towards our specific interests. Definitely ask for Nikos if you use this company. Everything was arranged in advance and worked perfectly.
