About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Kouhry0 contributionsWonderful private excursion of Oia, Fira and Perissa BeachWe were on a Mediterranean cruise and one stop was in Santorini. We did not want to book our cruise ship tours so we booked a private driver through Siva Private Tours who took our family of 14 on a private tour of Santorini for a 6 1/2 hours independent tour. Our driver picked us up at Fira Cable Car and we drove to Oia where we spent 2 1/2 hours sightseeing and shopping. Then he drove us to Perissas Beach that he recommended where we had lunch and had 3 1/2 hours of beach time on the black beach. After swimming he drove us back to Fira where we took cable car back to cruise ship. They got us back in plenty of time to board our ship. Siva was extremely helpful in planning my tour and I highly recommend them.Written August 15, 2024
- rmcmillin70 contributionsBest Private tour!Our private tour lead by Sotiris Pirounias was phenomenal. He was sooo knowledgeable and engaging. I could listen to him talk all day! He even took photos for us and found the best viewpoints. We would never have learned nearly as much if we had not had his expertise. Our driver was also very professional. 10/10Written May 13, 2024
- koopera730 contributionsGreat tour, better guide!Our guide was so nice and knowledgeable, she took to to ask what we wanted to learn about and tailored our half day to us. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone, especially if they get our guide!Written October 5, 2023
- 417darrink0 contributionsFantastic Athens Tour!Our tour guide, Natalia, was fantastic. Super friendly and knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed our day especially the Acropolis museum tour.Written July 15, 2023
- rollirishtravel0 contributionsSiva all the wayWe booked a long excursion through Greece through a travel agent in the US (Audley). They worked with Siva for the on-the-ground logistics and details. We used private drivers and guides for our family. It was nothing but top-notch the entire time. We went all over the mainland to many sites throughout Greece and also spent some time in Crete. Every single time the driver was on time and professional and the tour guide was informative. In addition, the hotels were very nice. Well done, Siva.Written May 29, 2023
- theresac1620 contributionsYou will not be disappointedMy husband and I went on the Delphi tour today with Constantine (Deana). She was absolutely amazing. We could not have hoped for a better experience- she was very knowledgeable and able to share the history in an interesting and easy to follow way. Her love of the history and her enthusiasm were delightful. I am already looking on the Siva website for other tour offerings because we were so happy after our experience today. We did take a different company for the Acropolis tour before this Delphi tour and this tour was 1,000 times better!! If I could do the Acropolis tour over I would have chosen Siva.Written May 7, 2023
- 44warrenn0 contributionsExcellent and very intellectually stimulatingThe whole thing!!! Joanna, our guide was extremely knowledgeable, patient and so informative with all the sites and history. We then went to the Acropolis Museum which tied everything we saw and heard about together and into reality. We then toured the city and she showed us the highlights of the city before taking us to a nice Greek restaurant called Kozina. We have never had a bad meal in Greece yet and this one certainly didn't disappoint! Overall a great experience and I would highly recommend the service and, especially, Joanna!Written November 1, 2022
- E6452QApatrickc0 contributionsAcropolis tourIn September 2022 my wife and I were in Athens, Greece. In Athens we wanted to see the Acropolis & the Acropolis museum so we decided to book a private tour with Silva Private Tours. Our private tour guide Ourania Panoutsou was awesome. She was extremely knowledgeable of the history of the Acropolis. She was able to answer all of our questions and took her time explaining the history of the Acropolis. If you are in Athens and want to tour the Acropolis I highly recommend that you contact Silva Private Tours and request Ourania Panoutsou as your private tour guide. You will not be disappointed.Written October 6, 2022

- Friestedt0 contributionsWonderful private tour of DelphiOur private day trip to Delphi was all we expected and more! The historical site was well worth the trip! Our guide, Foteini, was very knowledgeable and had so many interesting things to tell us! Our driver, Yannis, was great and the van that was provided for four of us was very comfortable.

Having a private tour guide and driver is the only way to really see Athens. This is my third visit but first with Silva Tours. Our guide, Anastassia Sofou and driver Triamtafylos Michailidis were the perfect team. Anastassia knows all of the interesting facts and behind the scenes details about the Acropolis, each of the monuments and gave us just enough info on the museum tour. She constantly took our pictures so we can show we were there! If you go to Athens and really want to enjoy yourself while learning about the sites, ask for Anastassia and definitely book through Silva Tours.
