Itinerary

  • The Monastery of Daphni

    The Daphni Monastery was founded towards the end of the sixth century A.D. on the site of the Sanctuary of Apollo which had been desecrated by the Goths in 395. The Sanctuary of Apollo was built in the Ionic style using the thinnest and smallest columns. The columns stand on a base with an ornamental scroll at the top. A few of the columns of the temple have been preserved. One of the four Ionic columns of the ancient Sanctuary of Apollo remains at the site, as it was re-used in the Daphni Monastery. The other columns were removed and taken to London by Thomas Bruce, Earl of Elgin (of Elgin Marbles fame). The columns, column bass, and column tops from the Sanctuary of Apollo are currently in the possession of the British Museum.

Dinos is the best

Published on Jul, 2024

Dimos was an excellent tour guide. He was professional and very knowledgable. I learned so much. He knew the history and showed us so much. It was truly an amazing day. It was like meeting a new friend When I return to Athens he will be the only travel guide I use. Once you have excellence why settle for anything else. He was a 15 out of 10. Great job

Fantastic from Start to Finish

Published on Jun, 2023

This tour was fantastic. Very convenient as picked us up from our cruise boat in the morning and dropped us at our accommodation at the end of the tour - what to do with our bags taken care of. It was just my son and I with the driver so we had discretion and an air conditioned car to get into after viewing each attraction. The lunch that come as part of the tour was superb and we got to take the leftovers with us! Last but not least - our driver Achilles was wonderful and made the busy schedule of sight seeing a breeze.

Excellent guide, excellent sites, excellent food

Published on Jan, 2023

Sebastian was an excellent guide! Knowledgeable and funny and catered to our group’s desires itinerary. The meal was excellent with more food than we could ever finish. Really great experience and highly recommend.

Athens like a VIP!!!

Published on Nov, 2022

This was a great experience to get a taste of the great parts of Athens! George was our driver and he was very professional. He did his best to tell us everything about each stop and things we drove past. His passion for his country rings through just as much as his joy in sharing it with us. We did a morning tour finishing with lunch at an amazing local fish restaurant. Having a dedicated driver to each place makes a huge difference! My only advice - after you book this tour go online to order your tickets for the Acropolis *not necessary just saves you waiting in the queue. And be hungry! The provided food is a large sampling of local cuisine.

Wow! Great way to see the best of Athens

Published on Nov, 2022

WOW! what a fantastic evening with a terrific guide! Achilles was so knowledgeable and kind. He knew all the best spots and stories to go along with it. We had a beautiful dinner with a variety of foods from Greece to top it off! His vehicle was very nice and clean too!
