Great Driver

The driver was excellent and very helpful. Be sure to read the exclusions list so you know that you will still have to buy tickets on top of what you pay for this driving service as well as the driver does not walk with you as a tour guide when you get out of the van.

Athens Full Day Tour
DonG
, Jun 2021
My tour guide was amazing. He was knowledgeable and kind and offered a wealth of information. That being said, we purchased a private tour which was the only thing available aside from a group tour on trip advisor and it was presumed we would have the tour guide with us on our tours. However, instead he drove us to our location but did not accompany us on the actual tour. Apparently we would have needed to purchase an additional private tour guide which was not an option when we purchased our tour. I know this was not my tour guides fault, but we felt that we had paid for services we did not receive. All in all, our guide took extra measures and stayed longer with us to ensure we were ok and had a great time and for that we are grateful

Thank you for your kind feedback. According to the law, in Greece only licensed tour guides are allowed to guide you into the archaeological sites and the museums, not the drivers. Of course, we can provide our clients with licensed tour guides after request. All our drivers have great knowledge in Greek history and mythology and a great passion for their job and try their best to provide you with unforgettable moments. We will gladly provide our services in the future. Kind regards, Ioanna Gryllaki

BEST TOUR IN ATHENS!!!
Jenna_W
, May 2021
The tour was amazing. I would recommend it to everyone. I booked this tour for the first day that I was in Athens so I would be able to see a lot and then use it to decide on where I wanted to go back to later on. I can honestly say we saw more than a lot, the tour covered everything from Acropolis to Lycabettus to everything in between and I never felt rushed and got to enjoy each location. Communication was amazing, and our driver Vasilis was the best. I booked a licensed tour guide for the tour and I would recommend doing this too, the extra cost was well worth the money as I learnt so much. I will be definitely booking this again if I ever bring friends to Athens and will be telling everyone about it.

I only had a few hours in Athens but I wanted to see as much as I could. Due to Olive Sea Travel I managed to see all the highlights and learn many important things about the city. The driver (sorry, I can’t remember his name) was a very careful driver, informative and friendly. Thank you for this nice experience. I will definitely use your services again.
