It was a great tour to the classical hotsots of Greece. Due to Corona on all visited sites were only a few tourists what I never had before. The hotels were at nice places in walking distance to the city center, so that we could enjoy Greece evening life easily. Our driver did a great job and had always interesting stories about ancient history and modern Greece to tell during our journey - thank you for this experience Yanis!

My guide Vasile met me at the Acropolis metro stop, we headed to the Acropolis, and I was the only person that had signed up for a tour that day so it was a solo tour. We stopped at the Acropolis, Temple of Hephaestus, Greek Agora, Lycabettus Hill, the glass running man, and the Olympic Stadium in my half day tour. 100% worth it, got some great photos and better memories, and would happily suggest them again.

The kingdom of Mycenae was one of the first great centres of the Greek culture; settlement on this site dates back to the second millennium BC.

Our Airbnb host suggested we could use Cat Taxis to transfer from the airport to the apartment. Terry was very helpful when I phoned to book and, on our arrival and transfer, gave so much information, hints and tips to help us make the most of our stay in Athens. We would not have received so much advice and information had we just booked a standard transfer with a holiday company. We were so impressed and grateful that we decided to use them again for our transfer back at the end of our holiday.

My son, daughter-in-law and I had booked a 14-day private tour of Athens, Crete, Santorini, Milos and Naxos with Private Tours Greece from May 1-14, 2020 and made a 30% down payment by credit card on 02/06/2020. All interactions with Private Tours Greece went smoothly and were professional and friendly. Then, due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and my son's illness, on 03/13/2020, well ahead of the deadline for a fully-refundable cancellation, I asked Private Tours Greece to release all reservations it had made on our behalf, but to hold my deposit, in the hope that we might be able to reschedule our trip later in 2020 or in the spring of 2021. Private Tours Greece complied with my request and issued a credit voucher for the down payment I had made. As the pandemic continued to surge and Greece remained closed to visitors from the United States, on 4/17/2021, after essentially extending an interest-free loan to Private Tours Greece for over a year, I requested that my down payment be fully refunded and credited to the same credit card account to which it had been charged. Thereupon, Private Tours Greece staff claimed that the request for refund had been "forwarded" ... as it turned out later, to Alpha Bank. Nothing happened for a week. I then engaged in repeated e-mail exchanges with Private Tours Greece staff, only to be subjected to a stream of equivocations, obfuscations of the facts, and invalid excuses, including a claim that Private Tours Greece was doing me a favor by agreeing to a refund because the Greek government had allegedly given it the option to hold my funds indefinitely. I then contacted the general manager of the company, who sent me what purported to be a Greek language request to Alpha Bank (that I was unable to read) to issue the refund, along with further invalid excuses, never responding to my complaint that Private Tours Greece was in breach of its contractual obligation to issue a full refund of my down payment, not to mention doing the honorable thing, i.e., issue an immediate refund from an account he controlled directly, rather than blaming Alpha Bank for the delay by claiming that it "required" 10-15 "working" days to complete the request. Even that outlandishly ridiculous period has now expired! A complaint I submitted to Alpha Bank has received no response to date. It has now been nearly a full month since my refund request of 4/17/2021, and I may have to initiate legal action against Private Tours Greece ... with all the complexities and additional outlays and delays that would involve ... in order to reclaim my funds. The lesson to be learned here is that Private Tours Greece cannot be counted upon to honor its promises and contractual commitments. If there is any chance at all that you may have to cancel your trip, STAY AWAY!

We first met John when my niece Hélène and I visited Athens in September 2013 and based on the various excellent reviews on his services, asked him to organize our transfers from/to airport and private tours to Sounion, Athens and Corinth, which he did perfectly, including renting a wheelchair for me (as I’m a person with restricted mobility) and arranging for my trip up to the Acropolis via the archeologists’ lift, which enabled me to visit the Parthenon again. So when we returned to Greece 7 years later in Sept./Oct. 2020, this time to Agi Theodori, a small village some 60 km from Athens, we immediately contacted John again to take care of the wheelchair rental, transfers to/from our villa and a private tour to Old Corinth. John himself waited for us at the Venizelos airport, as smiling and full of life as ever, though we were a few hours late due to a serious technical problem on our Zurich/Athens flights. Being already retained by a big football star, he arranged the tour in Corinth with another delightful and helpful driver, Alexander and again we had a lovely day. On the transfer back to the airport we again stopped at the Pende Phi, a fantastic Greek family restaurant he had introduced us to back in 2013 and we had a marvelous lunch before flying back. John is really a jack of all trades and is able to arrange a lot of things for you, point things you would have missed otherwise, give you tips of what to do/where to eat and always ready to help and solve problems. So we certainly hope we’ll meet again when we’ll visit his beautiful country again. Thank you for everything, John! Sylvie & Hélène, 74000 Annecy /France
