I had a terrific trip touring Mystras, Sparta, Delphi, Meteora, and Thermopylae with my guide Nikos! Nikos put together a custom itinerary with places in Greece that I had not yet visited. The highlight of my trip was visiting the clifftop monasteries at Meteora. We had marvelous weather for picture taking, and Nikos, knew where the best spots were. Hiking up several of the monasteries was also a unique experiences, and Nikos knew the best ones suitable for me. An AWESOME trip!!

We did first the hop-on hop-off bus tour through athens, which was OK (nothing special, just nice to sit down and be driven through a beautifull city). Then we did the private tour with Georgos as our guide. It was a suberb day. He told a lot, was very patient, good music taste. We saw the most impressive things. Just a perfect day.

Built in the 4th century BC, it is famous for its acoustics, which are so perfect that words spoken on stage can be heard perfectly wherever you are in the audience. Stepping forward in history, we will see the Palamidi Castle in Nafplio, built by the Venetians and famous for supposedly having 999 steps.

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.
