          Athens Full Day Tour was the best!
          Our driver, Babis, picked us up at Piraeus Port for a day packed full of adventure and sight-seeing. He was very knowledgeable; he already had our prepaid tickets for entrance to the Acropolis and Agora, as well as many other sites.

          Fantastic Experience!
          We went on a one day private tour with Stefanos who was our driver. We visited Parthenon, Agora, Temple of Olympian Zeus, the Acropolis Museum and Mount Lycabettus to have a panoramic view of the city, which was really cool. All the remains of the ancient structures of great architectural and historic significance are surely must see and they are the priceless treasures for the whole humankind. Each and every place we went to was a great and amazing experience for us. Stefanos was so enthusiastic and very knowledgeable about the Greek history and gave us a lot of background information and insight about what we were going to visit to help us get a better understanding of everything. And he is fun, thoughtful and he also has a very nice and contagious positive vibe emanating from his charismatic personality. We appreciate everything and great thanks. Na & Bill Oregon USA

          Great day touring Athens
          Our guide Terry was fantastic! The tour was great as it hit all the hi-lights. We enjoyed and would recommend. We appreciated that this tour included most of the entrance tickets so we didn’t have to stand in line.

          Fantastic Guided Tour of Athens
          Gianas was a fantastic tour guide, he told us about all the history and dropped us off at all of the key spots, including skip the line tickets at the acropolis and temple of zues. We only had a day in Athens and without Gianas guidance there's no way we would've been able to get to all of the major highlights in the time we had. Highly recommended if you only have a short stay in Athens. Thanks Gianas and Olive Sea Travel!

          An excellent introduction to Athens
          Our guide, Stefano provided such excellent service & was so knowledgeable. We enjoyed the tour tremendously. In that short span of time, we covered all the famous sights with full information provided by Stefano! It was great that costs of tickets to Acropolis & the Temple of Zeus were included. He even gave us tips where to have dinner after the tour. Good value for a lovely private tour! Thanks again Stefano!

          The best experience in Athens
          The cape sounion trip was the highlight of our Athens trip. Elias drove us to the temple of Poseidon. He was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of greek history and the importance/ significance of the various archeological sites in and around Athens. He was super friendly and was very fun to talk to. Me and my husband loved the conversations we had with Elias. We highly recommend him to anyone planning on taking this trip. The drive to cape sounion is beautiful, we made a few stops for pictures and got some beautiful views of the sunset at Temple of Poseidon. On the way back, Elias took us to a waterside restaurant where we enjoyed some authentic greek food. I would rate our overall experience 20 out of 10. It was way beyond our expectations and we enjoyed every bit of it. A trip to Athens is incomplete without this experience. Please book it now!

          Great learning experience.
          The historic sites were great. Yianis did a great job explaining the sites to us. The van was comfortable and air conditioned.

          Best full day Athens tour
          Antony was a wonderful driver! He was knowledgeable, funny, and had a perfect recommendation for lunch by the water. We would definitely book with this company again.

          If you’re on the fence just do it!
          Take this tour I cannot recommend enough! Stefanos was our tour guide for the day and he made sure we had the best experience! He was friendly, personable, highly knowledgeable and made our day so much better than if we ever tried to do it ourselves. Perfect amount of time with your guide and without guide where we were able to walk around and explore on our own. Lunch at the end wasn’t just a bagged lunch it was a full sit down experience at a great restaurant. If you’re on the fence just do it!

        I planned a custom tour of the Peloponnese area for May 2020. Olive Sea put together a suggested itinerary, which I changed about a dozen times as I read more about the area, and wanted to add new sights or spend more time in some areas. They responded to every email promptly, answering all my questions and concerns. Their prices were very reasonable, and the vast majority of my changes did not increase the price. They were very up-front about what costs were or were not included (like museum entry fees), and which changes could result in a price increase (like adding a day to the tour). When COVID-19 first hit, they assured me that I could get a refund if I couldn’t fly. When it became clear that the trip would have to be cancelled, they processed the refund immediately. I wish everyone at Olive Sea the best, and I will DEFINITELY use them whenever I make it to Greece (hopefully next year).
