"My husband, 8 year old son and I enjoyed a great morning in Athens with Makram. He tailored his stories to our son, who is very interested in Greek mythology, and did a good job of pacing our tour to keep our son interested and engaged. He showed us great “hidden gems” we never would have known about and enjoyed learning about the city’s history with him! Highly recommend if you’re in Athens and want to know more about its history, food and culture!"

Great tastes with Makram
"Our group had a great 10 Tastes of Athens tour with Makram! The food we sampled was delicious - the kritzini (breadsticks) were a revelation - and plentiful - we should have refrained from eating all day to fully enjoy all the tasty selections! The hidden bar was a nice visit - we would not have found that on our own. We already recommended this tour and Makram to a fellow traveler. "
"We used Evanthia for a three-hour walking tour of Athens. She was wonderful! Very personable, easy to talk to, and extremely knowledgeable. Her background is in archaeology so that really helped, too. I would highly recommend!"

Great Athens experience
"I cannot say enough good things about Ioannis!!! He took us on an extraordinary tour discovering some true hidden treasures of Athens. We learned so much about Greek history and culture. He tailored the tour to our specific interests and made the experience more like visiting with an old friend. I highly recommend taking this tour with Ioannis!! We can’t wait to come back and visit again. "

A Fantastic Day
"We spent a day with Ioannis on the Cape Sounio & Temple of Poseidon Private Day Trip. What a treat! After picking us up at our hotel, Ioannis took us on a very scenic drive along the Greek coast to Cape Sunnio. The experience at the ruins of the Temple of Poseidon could not have been any different than the chaotic one we had the day before at the Acropolis. The Temple of Poseidon was just as spectacular in its own way, but without the crowds. But be prepared for the wind. It was fierce the day we went.\n\nFollowing our visit to the temple, Ioannis took us to a nearby village where we had a leisurely lunch and even dipped our toes in the Aegean Sea! We had a great time sitting and visiting with Ioannis. His knowledge of local history is remarkable and he really makes it come to life.\n\nThis was one of the very best tours we have taken in Europe and I thougt it was a great value. I cannot recommend Ioannis highly enough. A great tour. An even greater guide.\n"
"Voula was wondeful. We spent 3 hours wirh her on a walking food tour of athens. She was kind, hospitable and knowledgable. We tried all sorts of Greek food in spots we otherwise wouldnt have visited. Highly recommend this tour with Voula!"
