My wife qnd I booked a 6 days private tour with Spiros. It was our second time with Spiros. The first time was 16 years ago for a one day trip. He made such a good impression I contacted him again. This trip went off without a hitch and was an excellent experience. Our next trip back to Greece we will use him again. Here are the details:

I contacted him six mouths before the trip. He is very quick with his responses basically he responded immediately adjusted for timezones. Spiros took our desires and his knowledge and create a great trip for us. His plans included the itinerary, the hotels, airport transfers, and local tour guides were appropriate. In this way, he was our travel agent. He knows Greece very well. His plan was excellent.

During the trip all went well. His car is very comfortable. He is the same nice guy we remembered and easy to be around. The local guides for key sites he arranges are excellent. The hotels selected are very nice. He also makes sure you have excellent dinning experience and reserves the best tables. My wife loves to take photos and he made sure she got to all the best opportunities. Any problems encountered he quickly found solutions. All we had to do was sit back and enjoy.

In summary, all I can say is contacting Spiros to travel with in our deep dive of Greece was an excellent decision. It made that part of our trip very special. Of course, our next trip to Greece will start with contacting Spiros.

We went to see all the amazing cultural sites with Takis and he was the best! Highly recommend! We spent almost a week with him and he planned the most amazing trip and had all our hotels picked out. He also was great at giving us information and then giving us space for as long as we needed. We went in summer so it was super hot, and my wife was 5 months pregnant at the time, so when we needed to make on the fly changes, he made them expertly and with no fuss. We loved our experience and are recommending my uncle and his wife to use them too!

Absolutely brilliant service from Spiros and Christos. Very professional, always on time and all stress of travelling gone. I would definitely recommend Spiros for all your transport and tour needs whilst in beautiful Athens.

We were so excited when Spiros confirmed that it would be himself driving us. We began our day full of expectations. We are very disappointed because what we got was waste of time and money. He didn’t give us a tour, he gave us just a ride, taking us to different places just telling us the names of the sites. Our guide book gave us more information! Every time that we asked him for further details he just avoided answering, made silly jokes or talked about how his life was in New York! If you wish to have a tour and wish to learn about Greece’s civilization and not about New York (he spend several years there) then Spiros is not for you. Very disappointing…

If you are a party of two to three people and don't want to drive, Spiros wonderful taxi service is for you!

Here're a few reasons why...
Comfort: Enjoy the comfort of being driven in a Mercedes E class vehicle over a distance of 360 km
Flexibility: Don't follow the schedule laid down by a tour operator. Stop and take pictures at vistas of your choice or grab a coffee in the mountains at your own convenience
Cost: Benefit from economies of scale. Yes - it may actually make economic sense especially if you are a couple or a small family! The cost of the taxi is in the vicinity of that of 2-3 bus tickets through a tour operator

And now for some details....

Nicos our driver and guide showed up in the morning at 830 am in our hotel lobby on the dot. The car was new, clean and spacious and we were soon on our way to Delphi.  Nearly an hour and three quarters into the journey we stopped at the picturesque ski town of Arahova. A cup of coffee and a few pictures later we we drove an additional fifteen minutes to the ruins of Delphi. What a tremendous place! We spent nearly two hours hiking the ruins and capped it with a visit to the museum located at the site. 
Nicos was at hand to drive us to a family run restaurant in the village of Delphi. We were treated to a sumptuous repast in a setting that afforded stunning views of the Corinthian Gulf. Thereafter we drove to monastery of Hosio Lukas - another breathtaking sight where we spent close to an hour enjoying the serenity, Byzantine architecture and beautiful valley views of this fantastic place. From that point on we made our way back to Athens and we were in our hotel by around 630 pm.

Through this entire trip Nicos had been a courteous, patient and knowledgeable guide. Most importantly, he understood us well - he made intelligent conversation without inundating us with excessive touristy information.

Thank you Nicos and Spiros for making this experience memorable!

We (family of 4) flew in for several days to Athens and with a very tight schedule. We had contacted Spiros in advance after having read the reviews on TripAdvisor. We were not disappointed, his knowledge of ancient Greek history, mythology and Greek culture kept us entertained and educated throughout the time we spent with him. It made all the places we visited that much more attractive as we knew a lot about history, when was it built, by who, it's significance when destroyed and by who and much more even before we got there. Thoroughly recommend it for someone who is looking for a comfort of a private tour, a brilliant guide and a genuinely nice human being. To top it all, we had wifi in our taxi and that was just insane! Family was updating Facebook after every stop! Fun, relaxing and very comfortable indeed.

We arrived in Piraeus with the Equinox at 7:00am.
Our driver was there to pick us up on time as agreed beforehand and drove us courteously through Athens.
It all seemed fine until we realized that he would not be able to escort us inside the Acropolis because he was not an authorized guide. This was a disappointment for us. We went inside on our own as we did not want to pay extra money for an authorized guide he offered to find for us. We thought it would be a tour, but it was a drive.

If you want to have an expert show you around and give you a guided tour this tour is not for you.

Spiros replied my emails promptly. I chose it after reading the trip reviews and its good price. Spiros picked us at the hotel on time. On the way to Corinthian Canal and Ancient Corinth, he gave us some background information of the places. We borrowed his books when we arrived there. Later, he drove us to Mycenae. It was amazing. Myceane was the main centre of Myceanean civilization and home of King Agamemnon. The place is huge, we could not have time to see everything. After that, we went to Nafplia for lunch. Spiros took us to a restaurant which faces the harbour. Food was delicious and reasonably-priced. We opted not to visit Palamidi Castle in Natplion because we wanted to have more time in Epidavros. We visited the acoustic ancient theatre. The Epidavrians founded the sanctuary of Asklepio, the most brilliant centre of ancient healing world. Thank you very much Spiros, we had the most unforgettable day with you in Greece. Spiros is knowlegeable, efficient and reliable. We had a very comfortable journey. The Peloponnese tour is highly recommended.

Spiros is a good driver, with a very comfortable car (Mercedes E Class) and reasonable prices. We used him for a full day tour and we recommend it!

I travelled to Athens on my own and had the good luck to find Spiros on tripadvisor. He picked me up at the airport, took me to my hotel to freshen up and then took me on a fabulous day tour of the historical sites of Athens. He was very accommodating and knowledgeable. I learned a ton about the history of Greece along with some insights on current day events. I really enjoyed myself and would recommend him to everyone. He responded quickly to my emails too. It was an
A++ day thanks to him!
