          Freat Day in Athens
          My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed spending the day with Andreas. We were able to the sights on our own time schedule. His explanations of the Acropolis and Agora were interesting and easy to understand. We enjoyed seeing local spots that a normal tour may not see. He was giving insights into his hometown.

          Spectacular experience!!
          Visited Delphi, our driver MANOS was spectacular. Safe driver, very knowledgeable, passion about Greece and loves sharing history and traditions. Very knowledgeable. Gave us the perfect amount of time to tour wherever we were, but he was flexible if we needed. Great recommendations for other day tours. Great food, local recommendations the usual tourist doesn’t get to see! Would highly recommend! MANOS was our driver for three days. Would definitely ask for him again when we return.

          Our phenomenal and enlightening morning!
          Our driver/guide Manos was so much more than we could have hoped for. He was professional, knowledgeable, respectful, and warm, friendly, and courteous. His knowledge and his passion for Athens was astounding and presented in a thoughtful, yet enthusiastic way . We so enjoyed his personal presentation and vast knowledge of the mythological influences in the places we visited. His patience with our questions was truly appreciated. We had a phenomenal experience and were especially thrilled with our driver’s personality and graciousness. We can’t imagine a better experience. Thank you so much!

          10/10 Tour. Two thumbs up!
          First time visitor to Athens. Did not disappoint! Overloaded with so many amazing sights and information. What a city…. But the people… the people. Athens feels friendly & safe. So much to see and do. This tour ticked most of not all the boxes. A great & comfortable way to get around. My guide Manus, was so accommodating and friendly. Knowledgeable and passionate about his city. A perfect afternoon spent in Athens. 10/10.

          Best guide for Athens and surrounding areas
          Manos was the best guide for Athens and the Namea/Corinth region. He allowed me to customize my itinerary and offered many helpful suggestions how to use the time. He also helped me avoid the crowd so I could get very close shots of the guard change ceremony. Go with Manos it won’t be wrong.

          Beautiful Sunset and a great experience with an amazing guide!
          Manos was our guide. We had so much fun with him on a previous tour, we immediately signed up for this one. The ride was very comfortable. Out of all the tours we experienced, the ones with Olive Sea had the best vehicles. Manos is very informative and our whole family loved him. My daughter often gets motion sick so she asked to take a break during the drive. Manos was so thoughtful. He made her laugh and kept his calm even though we were losing time to make it by sunset. Manos even made sure we had tickets waiting for us when we arrived which ensured we did not miss out on sunset. It was a beautiful view and we enjoyed it very much. We stopped for dinner on the way home. The service was wonderful. It was a nice end to our trip.

          Highly recommend Olive Sea!
          I would highly recommend this tour company for all of your Greek tour needs! Andreas was our guide and he provided top notch service and he is very passionate and knowledgeable about Greece! We ended up booking a couple more tours after our night tour and we are so glad we did, Andreas made our adventure so much more memorable!

          We visited the Acropolis and many other ancient sights and had a very good lunch.
          Terry was a very good guide, very knowledgeable about Athens history. He knew answers to every question we asked about Ancient Greece and gave a lot of interesting information.

          relaxing and educational too
          This private tour was one of the best parts of the entire trip! The driver was on time and quite informative while pointing out the historical significance of the Acropolis, the Panathenaic Stadium, and the Temple of Zeus. The car was very comfortable and it was nice to have water and Wi-Fi provided in the car. A perfect way to explore Athens like a boss and without having to worry about the crowds.
