We spent a month in Greece in the fall of 2011 and even with all the political and economic upheaval going on there right now, it's still a lovely place to explore. We spent two days in Athens as the majority of our time was on the Islands. We really wanted to maximize those two days so after reading good... More

George took my parents, my sister, and me from Athens to Delphi, Greece. The two hour ride went quickly as George was extremely knowledgeable. I loved listening to the history he recalled and I learned a great deal about the area. At Delphi, George gave my mother an umbrella to use in case of rain and the umbrella doubled as... More

We have used George twice on two different cruises, with port stops in Piraeus. We would not considering using anyone else. He is organized, honest, and will see that you have a perfect day in Greece. The highest recommendation! More

I recommend this tour guide and driver. We had a custom tour to the Sounion coast, which was beautiful. George was humorous, friendly and flexible in the arrangements. The price was reasonable...not cheap, but average. I believe the driver was a little late, but this was not a big problem. The car was a little jammed because there was a... More

On Sept.24/25, 2011 we were flying from the US to Athens connecting through Paris and had made arrangements (via email) for George’s Taxi to pick us up at the Athens Airport and take us to our hotel in Plaka. When we got to Paris we were informed that because of Greek air traffic control, our flight from Paris to Athens... More

While spending our holiday in Athens, my wife and I booked a day trip to Delphi with George's Taxi service. Our driver for the day, the wonderfully friendly Kostas, picked us up promptly at the appointed time and whisked us out through the lovely countryside of Greece in an attractive and very comfortable taxi. Along the way Kostas told us... More

We were in Athens for the Christmas week of 2011. I contacted George's son Nicholas weeks beforehand (having found so many positive reviews online for this family-team of taxi drivers) to arrange airport pickups and dropoffs, plus 2 tours outside the city. We did a one day Argolis Tour, taking in the Corinth Canal and Ancient Corinth, Mycenae, and Epidauros,... More

We initially hired George's taxi service for an airport transfer...but ended up using them for a tour of Athens as well. Upon arrival in Athens, the airlines had lost one of our bags. It took over an hour to resolve and luckily our driver, Makis Xilagouras patiently waited for us. He quickly turned our frustration into fun by taking us... More

myself and fellow travellers were very pleased with George's Taxi. Dennis was our driver, he was professional, courteous and a delight. He had us go to the Acropolis before it got busy so we could take our time to see and take pictures. Absolutely loved the restaurant he took us to, the food was wonderful. It was greatly appreciated that... More
