          Love the tour and our guide was outstanding!
          Our time with Panos on this tour was absolutely outstanding. We were scheduled to go to the Meteora Monasteries but pivoted due to iffy weather. We could not have been happier with the change of plans. Panos , our guide, was courteous, kind, extremely well informed and willing to share with us all he knew of our destinations and Greece in general. He was a well of information and was able to answer our many questions about Greek culture and traditions. As a plus, Panos took us to a local restaurant for lunch where we had an excellent meal. We never would have found this place and the experience was outstanding! We would recommend this tour and this guide service! Panos was excellent.

          Phenomenal. Dreamy. Do it.
          Phenomenal experience with breathtaking views as well as historical, religious, cultural and architectural inspirations. We concluded the tour with a delicious local Greek meal chosen by our guide, which just made the overall experience dreamy. Panayiotis, our guide, was informative, professional, helpful, hospitable and knowledgeable while also being personable, engaging and fun. I highly recommend this private tour and will definitely choose Eudaimonia on our next Greek adventure!

          The tour was modified to suit our requirements with no fuss. It was a special day and nothing was too difficult for Panagiotis. My cousin and I truly enjoyed ourselves and the service was top notch. Thank you for a very memorable day.

          Great island and great tour guide!
          We loved Panayiotis and the picturesque Hydra Island he guided us around. Panayiotis was incredibly fun and informative with sharing his vast knowledge and experience about Hydra. He made us feel very comfortable and safe exploring this serene and relaxing little oasis. Also, he made sure we ate some delicious local food. We highly recommend this trip with Eudaimonia private tours and Panayiotis! David and Leslie

          Just great!
          Great Island with nice restaurants! The Scenerie is very calming yet exciting as you can see breathtaking architecture and still see authentic greek lifestyle there. Our guide Panayiotis was amazing and has taught us a lot about life and history on the island. He was very friendly, professional and empathetic. I would always book the trip again or contact the agency again. Great work!

          5 star company!
          Where do I start? Can't say enough about how fantastic this company is. Nikos, whom I communicated and organized our trip over several emails, assisted us in a custom tour of Greece, understanding our needs and dreams come true. He is very attentive and responds quick to detail and making sure we will get the best vacation that suits our needs. 5 stars to Nikos. Our driver, Theo, another 5 stars is punctual, professional and always making sure we are comfortable throughout our new journeys exploring the city and countryside. Theo is very educated and knowledgeable, and personable, sharing information about the area and history. He would be a great ambassador for his country, and if people were more like him in the world, we would live in a better place. Eudaimonia Private Tours in Greece is highly recommended and you surely won't be disappointed.

          We went with Eudaimonia company. Paros the driver was superb very easy- going and great sense of humor. Picked out a delicious lunch and had great bar/restaurant suggestions in Athens. This trip was a great value and worth the drive from Athens

          A DAY IN DELPHI
          First and foremost Panayiotis was AMAZING!!! My partner and I along with two of our friends did the Delphi private tour. We explained to Mr. P as we like to call him that my partner was recovering from some health issues and he would be moving slowly as the trek to the top might prove challenging for him. Panayiotis assured us it would not be a problem and we didn’t feel pressured to move quickly. He was attentive and considerate of our pace. As far as the tour itself….. It was breathtakingly beautiful! Panayiotis was informative and knowledgeable, he was fun and engaging with a great sense of humor and kept us laughing the whole time. It was indeed a pleasure to meet him and have him as our guide. Thank you Mr. P.

          5-Day Best of Peloponnese Private Tour
          My experience with the 5-Day Best of Peloponnese Private Tour with Nikos was phenomenal. This tour is an excellent way to explore the history and breathtaking landscapes of the Peloponnese region. Our guide was very knowledgeable and made the trip enjoyable and engaging. Mycenae: The archaeological site of Mycenae was particularly captivating. The Lion's Gate and the tomb of Agamemnon were impressive. Nafplio: Nafplio was charming with its narrow streets, Venetian architecture, and vibrant atmosphere. The Palamidi Fortress offered breathtaking views of the town. Olympia: Visiting Olympia, the birthplace of the Olympic Games, was fascinating despite the heat. The ancient ruins and the museum provided deep insights into the origins of the games. Epidaurus: The theater of Epidaurus, renowned for its perfect acoustics, was amazing. Monemvasia: The Byzantine fortress town of Monemvasia was a journey back in time. The narrow, cobbled streets and well-preserved medieval buildings offered a unique atmosphere. The view from the top over the sea was spectacular and unique. I definitely want to visit this beautiful place again. Diros Caves: The Diros Caves were an impressive natural wonder. The underground boat ride through the caves, with their spectacular stalactites and stalagmites, was an unforgettable experience and lasted almost half an hour, which was great. The second dripstone cave we saw a few days later was also impressive and full of bats. Accommodations: The accommodations were exceptionally beautiful and luxurious. We felt incredibly comfortable and well taken care of. The rooms were elegantly furnished, providing a perfect blend of comfort and style. The hospitality was outstanding, making our stay even more enjoyable. Service: The service throughout the tour was excellent. Our driver Nikos was punctual, knowledgeable, polite, and accommodated all our special requests and concerns. Nikos was passionate about sharing his extensive knowledge of Greek history and culture, enriching each visit. Overall, we enjoyed our interactions with Nikos, finding them interesting and fun. We parted as friends. This tour is an ideal way to explore the historical wonders and natural beauty of the Peloponnese. The well-organized itinerary, luxurious accommodations, excellent food, and outstanding service made it an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience the best of the Peloponnese in a comprehensive and comfortable manner.

          Must Do for History Buffs!
          This private tour was recommended to us by family we were visiting in Greece, and it was a highlight of our two week trip. My husband is a history teacher and wanted to pack in as many sites as possible, and this did just the trick. Our guide, Theodore, was so friendly and knowledgable. His car was clean, air conditioned, and he had plenty of cold bottles of water for us through out the day. He gave us some insight about each site before dropping us off at the entrances, as well as an approximate time to be back to the car so we could head off to the next site. We had a lovely, perfectly timed lunch in Nafplio, and even had time to explore the town a little bit. It was a full day, but we didn't feel overwhelmed or exhausted. Highly recommend!

          Highly recommend this tour and this group!
          We had a great trip to Delphi and the monastery. Having our own driver pick us up right at our hotel - who could tell us all about the site, its history as well as anything else we wanted to know was so nice. Low stress and high level of support. After Delphi we had a wonderful lunch that our guide ordered so we could try all of the best dishes of Greece — needless to say it was outstanding! The beautiful monastery was the icing on the cake. Panayiotis made our trip really perfect and would highly recommend him and Nikos for any tour you might seek in Greece!

          Peloponnese Tour
          Peloponnese Tour What a treat to get away from the crushing hordes of tourists in Athens to visit the countryside southwest of the city! Everything about our day was delightful. Theo is friendly and knowledgeable. Very easy to spend the day with! Nafplio is a quaint clean laid back resort town with plenty of history and landmarks to enjoy. Lunch was the best meal so far on the trip. Ancient Corinth had much more to see than we anticipated based on YouTube videos we watched. And the great arena and associated museum was quite interesting But best of all was the personalized service we received from Niko. We had to make last minute tour change to accommodate resolving a lost baggage issue. He was available the night before to help us come up with a great solution. We greatly appreciate the personal service!

          7 day tour Peloponnese
          What a fantastic introduction to Greece. Theo was our appointed driver/guide and his performance of his duties was faultless. Friendly, engaging in conversation but also having that unique quality to know when to shut up and just let the clients enjoy what was in front of them. The highest praise we Australians can give a man is to just say “ He’s a good bloke”. That phrase applies unreservedly to Theo. We allowed Theo to order all our lunches and our only disappointment is that he won’t be with us for the balance of our trip. His knowledge of each restaurants menu was mouth watering. There was some flexibility in our itinerary which allowed us to fully enjoy our time. Pre trip planning was done with Nikos and his interaction with us was at the highest level of professionalism. If you are contemplating touring this area talk to this company, I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

          Custom Peloponnese/Delphi 5 day/4 night tour
          10/10, 100% recommend. I have been to Greece numerous times, including living in Greece for a year, and it was my 16 year old son's first trip. We both thoroughly enjoyed this tour. I speak and read enough Greek to feel comfortable driving, so I had considered renting a car and arranging everything on my own as on previous trips. However, due to the short time frame for our trip, I opted to trust Eudaimonia, and I was very happy with that choice. Nikos and Panayiotis are amazing. Working with Nikos via email and telephone prior to our arrival, we were able to customize a tour combining my son's "first time to Greece must-see list" and some off the main path experiences that were new for me. Panayiotis, our tour leader/driver was amazing, especially with my son. Accommodations are very nice and clean. The included lunches were fantastic, including some adventurous off-the-menu items. Definitely go with the recommendations from your tour leader re: food, and also any recommendations for optimizing the itinerary each day. Ευχαριστούμε Παναγιώτη και Νίκο για το υπέροχο ταξίδι. Ελπίζουμε να σας δούμε ξανά σύντομα!

        Wow , is the best way to describe our day to visit the monasteries. We stopped for a brief moment at the Corinth Canal. Then we drove to one monastery and the view was incredible. We did the second monastery and it was even better. The villages along the way are very beautiful and the people are welcomig. Our guide Theo was very knowledgeable and professional. Our lunch was included and it was a mix of traditional foods at a great restaurant with an amazing view. The owner Nikos was always responsive with the emails and made sure our day went very well.

        I would really recommend this company and guide for this trip or any other excursions.
        A big thank you to Theo and Nikos for this great day that we will cherish for many years.

        Michel, Joanne, Kevin and Susan.
